Forza 2 - PHGTC

Sweet, will do.

You guys do any other races or just this one?

I've never played it online so I could probably do with a few practice runs.

We've done a few championships, the PH Touring Car Championship, VW Golf GTI Mk1 Series, Ford Focus Championship & shortly the PHGTC. We also have a few mess around races straight after the main championship races each week.

You'll need a bit of practice for sure, but as long as you race cleanly (the odd accident of course happens - I've caused a few!!!) then all PH'ers are welcome.

The 'regulars' take first dibs on the lobby slots, thereafter we open it up as not every week everyone can make it. Keep your eye on the thread each week for spare slots & if you're on my friends list anyway you'd be likely to get invited if the lobby isn't full.

Where was everyone last night???

Only Alan, Gruffy & me in, plus Stirling Lost joined us. Not sure where the other regulars were???

Sorry I didn't get back on later on that evening, I decided to spend some time on Tiger Woods instead.

Hopefully we'll back with a full lobby next week......

Great news mate - now maybe you'll start to remember which day of the week it is

Good racing tonight chaps - that was my first go on Forza for months, so I was a bit rusty!!

Sorry I never reappeared. My xbox locked up in the lobby of the S Class race at Maple Valley and then when I turned it on and off again it just got stuck on the front loading page - weird.

Still, I've had it for about a year so it's probably due a breakdown

Good news, glad it's healed!

Sorry I didnt make it last night, didn't spot the thread until later in the evening.

I don't think this has been introduced to this thread yet, but what is everyones view on shifting the racing to a Thursday night to accomodate a couple more guys (Matt for one) and get a fuller lobby?

I have no problems with this as I can make just about any evening about this time of year and I think Muz has also said he could make a Thusday, but obviously we cannot speak for the rest of you guys!

Losing someone because of shifting the race nights would defeat the purpose of this altogether, so if there is a night that everyone can make then it would be a win-win situation!

...Do we need another poll?

[Gruffy]

Muz, Alan and I were talking about this on Wednesday and we're all OK with it.

OK for Thursday

I'd be available on Thursdays. So it get's my vote

[ih8thisname]

So, unless y2blade cannot make it on Thursdays are we good to go??

And..

Chilli, are you still alive?!

[LukeBird]

I may be able to make it. Am on an early the following day though
Any idea how long we'll be racing?

[ih8thisname]

I realise it's short notice, but is anyone up for this tomorrow?!

If so, I would recommend getting online a good 20mins early if you haven't already installed the new dashboard update thingy.

One - to make an avatar.
Two - to work out where the bloomin' "play game" button is!

As brilliant as the update is however, I still don't have a clue how to work it!

[Gruffy]

Yup, I'll be there.

I've never really used the wheel much (couldn't get on with it) but I'm going to give that a go tonight, so apologies I'll be using that as my excuse if my driving is crap and impolite

[Muz_Wez]

Should be around (hopefully) so see you there.

[LukeBird]

What time are you guys going to be on?
I'm shattered and don't think I'll be able to make it, but I may try.
Have to be up at 0445 though!

[Muz_Wez]

Good racing again last night guys. I'm up for kicking things off next week if we can get the lobby full, so perhaps Willo was right, we need to get a up to date list of whose In/Out and driving what.

I'll be on again tonight for some Forza and thought it was about time we did some Team Races again for a laugh??

[Gruffy]
