Once you get used to no assists you will find you can get faster times. Also, if you bump the difficulty to medium and run with no assists, you will earn more credits!

I ran with Mr.242 a couple nights ago and had a blast. Too bad (for me) so many of you are from the west coast - by the time you get on it is midnight here!

My favorite track = Fujimi Kaido

If you haven't received your 914WORLD.com vinyl for your in-game car, message me on XBL and I will gift one to you. GT = stemisch

Ya, the time difference is a bitch. I've been working on my real car till about 9 here, then driving the virtual one. I just cant seem to place in my A class 914 though.

And the graphics logo is very cool!

I have found A class is pushing it for the 914. You can bump the HP way up but the handling hits a limit and the 914 is no longer competitive.

Dang Steve, Mark Crandal, Mark & slow me! That was a kick man. I need to get some more time on the game & build a few 914's in each class. I also need to pony up for a steering wheel. That is the best driving game I have ever played. I didn't play any of the other Forza drivers. They sure nailed this game. Hopefully we can get some more Teeners on here playing. Thanks for the butt whipping tonight guys . We ended a little early though. I don't think I even took Crandal out that last race

Good times in stock teeners. We had four 914 owners and one drop-in.
I will have to find time to download some replay clips to post.

Buy a couple more 914s and upgrade them to E and D class. If you have the credits, upgrade a couple for C and B classes also.
For a first time Forza player, you didn't do so bad. You had a couple of good runs.

Early for you was 2 a.m. for me!!!

What time will you be on today. I have to get in on one of those! On Pacific time, but at home all day.

I'll be on tonight but probably not till 9 or so. Kinda need to get the kids in bed & spend some time with the wife. Having said that!

I went & bought my Logitech wireless steering wheel setup . I want to get on right now & try it out. Stinkin work

Good times! I have to take care of a few things, but should be on in a few hours.

Love the paint and polish on the Fuchs!

Yes !! looks real nice ,...Beautiful car`s

My 8 year old is now racing on Forza. I am so proud he took a minute away from HALO 3 to play this! He is impatient and wants his own 914 now, but he has to earn a bit first. Now the whole house is racing, pops and two sons! I LOVE IT!

Nice car!

aluminum wheels steel lugs not the other way

do you have a better picture of #40 in the background? Both great looking cars!

Play the game today for the first time at my Brothers .....WOW...he even let me change the color to red

Cmon what did you think of your virtual car?

It was very cool ..put a very big smile on my face for sure ..almost as good as my sons birth ......Handling needs some work and i hit the wall alot(nice to know i had a reset for sure) but I`ll get it down in no time and it will be a ton of fun racing with everyone....The car itself is perfect i`m very happy with the outcome...I still havent seen the credits

BLACK FRIDAY DEAL on FORZA MOTORSPORT 3 :

Drive a virtual 914-6.

TOYS R US $34.99, ...normally $59

I will not leave my property on that day ...no way no how

I have never shpped on Black Friday before noon...ever. The wife (ex wife now) got a speeding ticket on the way to a Black Friday sale. Yes, I know...I am better off!

BUT, this is a hell of a deal. Almost 50 % off a game which is only a month released and rave reviews with high 914 content. Just saying....

I still have not recieved my copy yet.......

Just go buy it ya cheap SOB . The one you get for free you'd probably be framing & putting on the wall anyway

I thought about it

I just got Forza 3 and it is Bada$$, Has anyone downloaded the extra cars and tracks that came with it? I was curious to what the downloads are...

I've been playing Forza since it came out and I'm psyched to see some
real teener owners playing as well... I'll be adding you guys as friends asap...

This game kept me sane while I was trying to find my real 914 for a year...

gamer tag: cellul0id 3

Weekend here, ....any one in for some 914 racing this weekend?

I will be good for Sunday. I work tonite until 8a tomorrow. So sleep will be my Saturday agenda until the evening.....then some GF time since she has been out of town for the week!

So Sunday is a day for me.....let me know. I haven't driven online in weeks. Call of Duty is taking up my time lately

Screen name: SGT 242

I should be on tonight at some point. GT: stemisch

FM3 voted best Driver game of the year at the VGA (Video Games Awards) show aired on SPIKE tv/

Racing Saturday night was really fun. We were up until 2 AM Eastern. Racing "Fujimi Kaido" track and "Cat & Mouse" and "Tag" game modes. It was all fun!

It's was a bit rough racing those other guys as they clearly have bought and tuned a lot of cars. I know there is/was a money glitch in the game that allowed people to accumulate a lot of cash, but I am not doing it, so I am only at about 1.8M in earnings so I don't have the money to experiment on lots of different cars. So I generally have one or maybe two cars that are really setup for each class. Even then, I have only played the single player up through R3, so I don't have any decent S class and above cars.

Sorry for not being on. My sons trumped me and played Halo 3 and ODST. I forgot, every other week, TV is controlled by the mob.

We played again last night and it was pretty much a stock 914 night. In addition to myself, we had...

poorsche914 (GT: Stemish)
Brent (GT: St33lerChief7)
Jakeodoule (GT: Jakeodoule)

I made my first video using the "create a movie" feature in the game. I hate that it limits the movie to 30 seconds max. Anyhow this is a 30 second clip from "Fujimi Kiado - Old downhill"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdyOAO2d0Vc


For some reason when I uploaded it to YouTube, it doubled the clip with no sound on the extra 30 seconds.

Anyhow, that is poorsche914 and Jakeodoule in front of me. I think I was faster then them, but it was hard to pass cleanly. We were all this close for the entire race. If I remember correctly Brent was behind me somewhere.

I took a pic on FM3 on my flip after rear ending the CPU car whcih slammed on its brakes going into a mild corner. Turns out after reviewing the clip, Jake mistakenly broke too hard as he was first dealing with manual shift, which the CPU designated as a stop, which immediately came to an abrupt stop, which sent me flipping. The pic has me upside down, a virtual 180. Working on getting it into MSL online so I can copy and attach.

I bought a 360 a couple of months ago and just bought a Microsoft wheel a couple of weeks ago. I got the wheel all set to go and turned on the console. What do I get? RROD! I finally got my repair kit so now my xBox is just like my 914, disassembled with the parts scattered everywhere. :-(
I should have it back together soon and will be picking up FM3. The Limited Edition is very cool but $80 is a bit spendy.

No GT?

Is it only multi player is you are on LIVE? We have 2 360's on our home LAN but can't get on LIVE.......

Ben

Ben,
Yep you have to have xbox live.
We can then all link up online an race up to 8 I think.
We raced stock 914's so nobody has an advantage.
It was alot of fun. But I see I need more practice.
Jake

Bummer, my XBOX can't get on LIVE. Maybe I'll pull another one out of the closet and see if I can get it to work. REALLY want to drive that teener!!

You can get plenty of Teener driving while on the 360, just not against us 914 folks. IN fact, I put in about 20 hours of practice before I started the MSL, although it didn't show much. Have to run manual since it is signifigantly higher performing than the auto assist.

Fixed the RROD on my old 360 so I could get back on live. Sent friend requests to some of you in this thread. My gamer tag is: OneHotRocket

Ben

I was wondering who OneHotRocket was when I got the FR. Figured it was a 914 guy. Welcome and hope to race with you soon. GT: stemisch

Any 360 Wheel deals anyone come across this Christmas season? Not looking to buy @ retail price.

Getting Weird output from Forza. My Flip made the car tranparent. I made a video, downloaded to Forza...net, it was 11 MB large, but lasted only 4 seconds. BIZZARE!

With default collisions setting, when a car is stopped, crashed, upside down, etc it ghosts so other cars don't crash into it as you try to straighten things out.

They are all playing now....

My copy got returned to Microsoft some how ?? Aaron sent it of again yesterday so it won`t be long now

Just ran a few tracks with those guys, they've obviously been playing much longer than I have!!!!







Sure was fun though!!
