Got the 928 yesterday which is a bit of an angry beast, plus the tr7 (from the auction house, couldn’t see it as a weekly prize?) which is quite decent in A800 guise.
TR7 is the prize for getting to level 7 of the Super7 user challenges series, not a weekly prize. Sorry for any confusion.

sorry, just since this. aw geez you guys, shucks etc hehe but thanks!

unfortunately my internet connection to the xbox is playing up so it won't show me the rivals leader boards to be able to choose a circuit. i was thinking car choice to be limited to the 205 rallye [a prize this week] and clio williams. PI a figure plucked out of the air [literally wink] at 777 and a short fast and fun circuit along the lines of broadway village scramble. should make it a close one.

it was worth buying, can well see it being used on these challenges tbh, not massively grippy but progressive when it slides. in any case, i spent about 30m credits on stuff i'll never drive earlier!

What's the deal with this seasonal buggy B class challenge? I've tried 2-3 buggies, stock and tuned and I can't get anywhere near the AI, I'm loathed to turn the difficulty down but this one seems ridiculous, just stuck in 11th place no matter what I try and do.

The seasonal stuff really bores me to be honest...
I used a Alumi Craft Forza edition with a tune I downloaded to get it to B Class. Another gamertag I used the Penhall Cholla. Won on both on highly skilled level, think I used expert on one race but not a fan of the buggies in this class. They are better in A class really.

In the end I used a vw bug which allowed a fair bit more power. I was then able to beat the AI on unbeatable difficulty, though it was still pretty tough and I had to ram the lead car a few times to get first place, the AI definitely seems a little broken on that challenge. I couldn't get the alumi craft to work for me no matter what I tried, it just felt dead slow.

New cars for the next seasonal run starting tomorrow. Mazda Cosmo, Mazda RX-3 and Saleen S1 https://forzamotorsport.net/en-us/news/fh4-series-...

I think the Cosmo has been in Forza before and the RX-3 and Saleen are new, but I'm not entirely sure.

Yes, the Cosmo was in horizon 3 I believe, nice little car.

The Alumi Craft is slow but not being on a max level difficulty helped with that. Some of the weekly challenges like this are easy, then some are very hard. One a few weeks ago was near impossible.

Whoop. Might finally get a point biggrin

Not sure if it's just me, but the options with the Williams seem mad!

I did one build as:
FWD
2.0 engine with turbo
Diff
Full weight reduction
Sports tyres
And could then add all the engine parts and the Pi stayed at around 742 and only went up after adding more handing options.

Its around 500bhp.... And near impossible to drive, with the traction control enabled, it's constantly on till 4th gear.

It's not the car I set the lap with....

Excellent time set by cutters that.

As for the Clio, I had a play on Monday night but just couldn't get on with it, I don't know why, as you say, there are more options but it just didn't seem to handle the way I wanted. Maybe I'll need to revisit it.

I've had that before where adding power doesn't raise the PI. My thinking is that you've taken it past the point the tyres can use any more power, so it won't get you any faster but will probably get you spinning around facing many directions all at the same time while you're doing it hehe . I need to do a build with less tyres/handling and more power (but maybe not 500bhp...), I think my time on the board now is with no aero, I tried adding aero to what I had but it was way too slow on the straight.

I'm done... there's definitely at least 2 tenths in the setup but I can't for the life of me string all the corners together.

Had a quick go at the monthly rivals in the little Cosmo this morning, literally did three laps and settled and look what I was greeted with..



What are the odds that I see that annoying face with exactly the same time!
