let’s do a thread like this every week. doesn’t have to be me, whoever has the info, but let’s keep it consistent with day/format @Watsonero77 @betinhogvz @x_ShadowsBane_x

speaking of the Delorean, we might never see it again. There were a few unobtainable cars in FH4, and I accepted that as part of being late to the party. the day-one full-timers have to get something rare

What day is a good day to post it? Not appointing myself because some of the others would be better about getting the screenshots.

I generally like to start tuning for the next season on Saturdays.

I like Sunday, I think the season drops off hard after Saturday night, but Saturday is cool too. Friday is too early imo

I think as soon as any of us gets the information start the thread up so we can get the info out there as soon as possible.

I was gonna suggest such a copy/paste

not the fastest car, but i enjoy driving it. got a pb Colossus with it, but it’s built more for street racing. I’ll probably use this, although I love the Hondas with no aero as well

One thing to consider is we’d be kind of stepping on the toes of Max’s playlist thread but then maybe he would just end up merging the two topics when his is ready.

I just think putting his thread up on Wednesdays and sometimes Tuesdays is a bit late for tuners/painters/testers to get ready.

nah, I think we’re stepping on his thread more by hijacking it for previews. we could name it a bit more distinctly maybe, but I’m a actually getting confused now on the weekly thread, we need less overlap

Those screenshots remind me that I’ve still got a lot of work to do. Almost finished with the Retro Sports cars but have only dabbled with the Oddball Rally and Cult cars and haven’t even started the S1 Super Saloons.

I can see that happening. Plus a lot of the other posts would need to be merged into this one.
Maybe if he just put his thread up sooner - he’s got all the inside info.

New weekly thread is an awesome idea to cut down on confusion and clutter.

I tested the '05 MG x-power. Changes 3 parts + adjusted 3 sliders a bit in fine tuning. This is a solid contender if the upcoming course selections have longer open stretches with the best top speed, also handles very good with the rwd config.

max won’t care btw, the earlier weekly thread was an idea I brought to him after the hackers stopped leaking up-coming info

The 2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-spec was decent when stock but haven’t tuned it yet. So another possibility if a twisty set of courses come up

Is that to do with the Wiki pages being dropped ?
Pity about that cause all I wanted from that was the full info on the upcoming seasons to get my spreadsheet in order. Nothing to to with jumps on tuning options.
If Max could get the full data on car restrictions / rewards included on his normal one that would be a start but I liked the way I could get the full season in one go.

I still cannot gear those vtec engines properly

so when the hackers stopped getting the info from game files, I asked him to post the info a few days earlier then usual. he’s been good about it, but it’s never before Tuesday or Wednesday. it has restrictions and classes it’s only missing specific races and pt stunt targets

The '93 Porsche 968 Turbo S starts out at A701 but is easy enough to get to B700 and can even be AWD swapped if that’s your preference. It felt pretty capable when I tuned it earlier.
