I can't work out if I am s**t, doing somethng fundementally wrong, or whether the game is doing what it is supposed to. I won the races in the first series without too much of a problem, but the second series (night racing) I got walked all over, as all the other cars are so much faster.
I just did the automatic upgrade on an Audi S5 and then Jaguar F Type and expected that with a bit of close racing I'd be able to get a podium, but all the other cars are so much quicker that I can't even get close to the top 5. I even dropped the difficulty down (twice) and even then I can't get 1st place!
Am I missing something? How can the other cars be that much quicker? Just me?
That night series is a f**king pain.
Nurburgring and Spa first corners are like destruction derby. I struggled to get in the top 3.
Downloaded the app last night and tried it out to see if it actually works.Pretty handy for anyone wanting to tune.. http://forzatune.com/
I usually do my own tunes and like to think some of them are pretty good as I usually do well in races online. LB times are usually in top 200 some in top 100 depends I usually just set them when managing a clean lap in the hoppers online. Feel free to search my tunes too under GT 'Arizer' all S class at the minute.

Tried it on brands hatch with a viper (with all needed mods purchased and installed but not set up) and set a time of 1 minute 45 seconds tuned the car with no extra performance upgrades and it was a 1 minute 37 lap. I actually couldn't believe the difference it made in such a short time.
I literally just picked a car that I had never driven to try the method.That's impressive. I've not used it yet.
My time there is a 1.36 in the Civic WTCC but I remember it was pretty awful lap. I got a 1.36.172 in the wet on Brand Hatch in the Ford RS2000, 77 on the LB. :wink:
Anyone taken the limo around the ring? Quite a good bit of fun.
Trying to break into top 100 in class for Nurburgring, struggling to beat my best time though so stuck at 119 in the leaderboard.
What class?
Barely played this since release.
Bit boring....?
I'm still on Sim Steering, it's hard work tbh. I've never struggled with it on any other Forza. Tried it off and it feels too numb to me.
Just managed to get down to rank 80 with an 8:07. Did an 8:02 but touched barrier so didn't count so i know sub 8 minutes should be possible.Ohh fair enough cracking top 100 on ring can be hard. I might give it a go but as it stands I have no C class cars in my garage lol.
If you haven't already try setting one of the fastest guys as a ghost as you may be able spot some lost time.
Christ I'm on bloody 8:48 lol. I think there's a lot of practice needed. Only did 3 laps last night
I'm using a DC2 integra. I'm down to 8.30 now with a bit of practice so it's coming down slowly!All depends on the car too, I've got quite a few C class ones that are well tuned and won't do any quicker than my previous times of 8:15. Its all in the tuning of them really.
97 Civic type R is my current one I'm using for under 8.
I think the little Elise has potential if I can keep it in a straight line lol. Will try do sub 8 tonight.
Worst part is, rank 1 is still 15 seconds ahead of me, no idea how they are doing them sort of times!
