I know when I am looking for streams of people taking down Mechberg, I will be looking for streams named Bounty Hunter Mechberg Posse, but that is just me.

Looking forward to this.

One suggestion for these events would be to modify this wording:

To: If you have beaten Mechberg at the close of the event you will be gifted a Bounty Hunter themed car.

The ‘by’ is where people are getting the mistaken notion that only have to beat the time that existed at the time you set your lap. I know most of us know how these work, but there still seems to be plenty of confusion each time from new people.

I would add the word “quickest” in there too so "if you have beaten mechberg’s quickest time at the end… "

I agree MonkeyDGio!!! It’d look amazing!!!

Is the poster supposed to be a tribute to the Hawkeye comics, looks similar.

Is this CBH in conjunction with a recent airing of Top Gear UK where Clarkson took the P1 out for a spin?

Can’t wait to start running this track; will probably have Twitch on by default for others to see :slight_smile:

Just set 02:35:681 on the first try :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Event is open, I already started handing out my gifts for streaming. More you stream the more you have a chance to get.

Well that was fun but I’ve got a lot of room to improve. First step: figure out how to clean lap on a consistent basis.

Thanks to everyone who takes part!

You kept dirtying the exit of Eau Rouge on the white line/rumble. The penalty there is when the third tire touches the white line or rumble strip. You can straddle the line, just can’t touch with the 3rd or 4th tire

Pleasure, loved and beat the first CBH on Forza 5 and plan on doing the same this time around.

Good luck to everyone trying it, already 3.5/4 seconds faster than Mech but I’m sure he’ll improve loads.

Happy lapping guys :smiley:

I think you can hit at least a 34, I believe in you :).

I think i may have had a visitor at my 1 hour broadcast from one of the T10 guys! I dropped a tweet to Mechberg/T10, and found half way through it, i had a viewer!
Hopefully that means i managed to get that elusive extra gift! And i think i know what i am doing every time i go online now. Streaming is great, and even better when you have a viewer!

EDIT - after seeing how you will let us know if you jumped in, i may have to leave the chat open next time just in case… But, to live stream another time!
