    Re: Forza Motorsport 5 Review (XBox One)

    Been working on a livery for a charity event V8 Supercar Race I'm taking part in next month. First paint I've done on FM5, it's still a work in progress.

      Great news Forza fans! Some big issues and features that were missing from the game are being implemented with the next update!

      The multiplayer replay save is a big deal for the guys that do organized races, now there can be proper steward inquiries and media coverage of the races. And repairable aero, something the Forza community has been asking for for years!

          With no cars being rewarded as a part of leveling and having to buy unlocked DLC cars ingame to actually use them aren't the only cars you would have to sell the ones you made the decision to buy?

              They also really need to add the ability to share paints or vinyls with friends so they aren't locked. I don't know if they just ran out of time or what but it just baffles me on some of the decisions they made.

                Had a V8 Supercar test session yesterday for a charity endurance race I'm racing in a couple weeks.

                Short video was put together by CQR Aero. Testers in the video are CQR Jono, CQR Magictap, CQR Cobblepop, CQR Aero, SelectiveRogue, and myself CQR Deuce. Amazing pass made by CQR Aero near the end of the video.

                  Very very nice. Were you guys using wheel setups? Please say yes. Lol

                    LOL! Most of us use the pad including myself. There were a couple guys in the video using the thrustmaster wheel though.

                    I'd personally love to have a nice wheel setup but I just can't wrap my head around the extra expense, I'm also a little scared I'd lose some pace. I'll have no choice at some point though, I'm 37 now and it's hard on the hands doing a 2 hour stint in an endurance race with the pad.

                    This race is supposed to be on a live stream from a few guys, if any of you are interested in watching it I'll post the info when I know who's streaming.

                      Another livery I've done for the V8 charity race for the team of CQR Cobblepop and CQR D4N13L

                        OK thanks. I was actually appreciating how smooth everyone was. I don't think I'm that smooth with the sticks for that track. And for twelve hours? Yikes! 😂

                          Yep smooth is fast, I believe the replay makes us look a little smoother than we actually are.

                          This particular race is only an 8hr endurance so I'll only have to do 2 stints.

                              I would recommend playing the career and getting a few cars first and upgrading them for C Class which is one of the more popular classes in the public lobbies. C, B, and A class are usually where the most action is.

                              It will be tough to find an online race when you only have one car that only fits into one class.

                              Also the Rivals mode is a real easy way to earn a lot of credits in a short period of time.

                                A little video of the Bathurst 1K Charity Race I participated in over the weekend. Over 1000 quid was raised for the charity of The British Heart Foundation, the original goal was 50 quid.

                                Video is by TG Takumi: Video contains the opening laps of the first 40 lap stint. A battle between TG Takumi and my teammate CQR Jono who put up a good fight considering the pace of TG Takumi who is one of the fastest guys on Forza. Myself (CQR Deuce) and CQR Jono ended up finishing 5th overall in the CQR EcoBoost Ford.

                                Podium Results:
                                1st TG Takumi and Ymgr Bellmond
                                2nd MOPAR001 and F4H Krux
                                3rd CQR Cobblepop and CQR D4N13L

                                There should be a highlight video of the entire race in the next week or so.
