Re: forza challenge 2

done a 9:03.9 and there's a few seconds to take off that for sure, possibly under 9min but its certainly a harder car to get the potential out of

Re: forza challenge 2

I got 10 mins dead in the VXR first lap out, 2nd lap was a disgrace.

More practice needed before I even attempt the ball sucking S2000.

Re: forza challenge 2

My god that S2000 sucks on the 'ring, no wonder I hardly ever see them there.
The seemingly infinite lack of torque and the ridiculously spaced gear ratios make it a chore to get this thing round quickly.

I managed 3 clean laps (2 others I spun out at the corner leading up to Flugplatz) all three of my laps where 9:28 which is rubbish. I got bored of driving it and managed it 8:58 in the Volvo S60R on my first try.

Re: forza challenge 2

the S2000 doesn't suck its just not like driving a train, whats the point in a challenge that isn't difficult

how about a new challenge of driving a mini cooper round the oval or something

Re: forza challenge 2

So if i wanna have a go does the car have to be standard spec??? Or can it be upgraded as long as you still only use ABS & Auto?




Cheers

Dave.
