In reply to failboat:

I'll test it out now. In the mean time, All the other cars are done. The Hyundai is probably my favorite to drive honestly. I'm really happy with how it turned out. The updated specs are on the front page now and i'll include them in the post below.

For those who didn't see my post on Facebook, I got banned from Turn 10 for the "Bag of Dicks" sticker I made for Poopshovel. It's not permanent, just for a week. I still have the capability of racing online, just can't buy stickers and cars online... hahaha.

Wow. You can pretty much do whatever you want on Forza. but as soon as you upload a photo of it, its out there for the self policing community of fanboys to see and report to T10.

atticus-thanks for your hard work on the cars-looks like this is gonna be a blast!

No problem. I kinda have the hang of it now and it was pretty easy to add the extra cars. When running a spec 205 the grip is pretty even across all the cars. I used the benchmark data of the lateral G's to make sure they were all around 1.05 lateral G's at 60mph. Then bumped the power until the car is around 125-130mph top speed. Then go test. Usually the cars are close within a few hp, so I would either add or subtract around 5 hp for 2 or 3 tenths. Then for a single tenth i would drop or add 5-10 lbs of ballast, or upgrade the clutch or transmission for slightly faster shifts. I got to the point where i could guesstimate, then go test and the car would usually be within a half second of where I would like it to be, then i'd do some adjustments to speed up or slow it down then test again and usually be within a tenth, then do a last tweak and be on.

After so many laps, I can pretty much feel after turn 1 if the car is too fast or too slow. But I'm fairly confident they are about as close as they can be to each other. No car really handles better or is faster in a straight line. I'll add the lbs per hp ratio to each car's info as well.

In reply to DukeOfUndersteer:

Can he still use the sticker? Haha

So all the cars are within 5 lbs per hp. I figure that variance is due to gearing overall weight and torque of the engines.

BETCHA THE berkeley I CAN! Dude, that sucks. I owe you a beer.

In reply to poopshovel:

Haha, it's cool. I got a couple cases from the boss.

I was all in for the Fit, but I'm going to have to try that VW out before I lock it in.

On your listing for the Kia C'eed, I think you mean Street Transmission, instead of Race Transmission.

In reply to racerfink:

Haha yeah thanks! I knew I'd mix something up!

On now if anyone wants to join in for some testing!

Think I'll be getting on after F1 quali.

Redline 0729, formerly Switchblade762 is IN!

The Green Coast Pharmacy Kia is ready to race!

In order to get this photo, it took some fast work. Photo, upload to Storefront, go online to Forza.net, download photo, get back to xbox and delete from SF before some enema nozzle complained and whined

I am busy running errands and hanging out with the wife today, but i should still be in for tomorrow night's practice session.

Been testing both the Green Coast Kia, and the Smirnoff Ice gold iX20 are both fast around Sunset. The little iX is quicker through the corners with slightly better handling, but the Kia gets out of the corners faster and down the straights faster. The Kia gets to 119 before T1, and the iX is hitting 117 at T1. That slight advantage gives the Kia a 1.07 better laptime. Could be I have more seat time, but I know in FGC's 2200#, 200hp lobby that little iX kills technical tracks better. What time Sunday night?(Central here)

I'm watching quali on the dvr now, I might be on in half an hour unless the woman wants to watch the U of A game.

I just built a Scion Racing xD and put it in the team garage. It goes fine, handles good, but I'm still faster in the Kia. Drive it like ya stole it!

Season 2, not enough space for a dedicated racer? If I got to be a provisional, I suppose that will have to do. No 7 ain't gonna like sitting any racing out though!
