SulexPagMan ‘Balanced’ Is what @TheGillesMuller used for his pre-testing. I’d start there but check to see if any of the tuning braintrust from here has put out anything. I’ll check here in a bit.
iconic movie cars - US - C class when stock
Chevy Camaro '69
Challenger '70
Dodge Charger '69
Ford XB Falcon
Ford Mustang '71
Ford Mustang '69
D class when stock
Chevy Camaro '79
DeLorean DMC-12
Ford Bronco
Ford Mustang '68
Ford Coupe '32
GMC Vandura
Plymouth Fury
Pontiac T/A '87
Pontiac T/A '77
of these I think I know three or four relevant films
in “Transformers” (enjoyable), Bumblebee starts as an earlier Camaro then turns into a modern one, right?
“Back to the Future” (funny) has the DeLorean DMC-12
“Christine” (boring) has the Plymouth Fury
“Smokey and the Bandit” (funny) has the Pontiac T/A '77
think the Pontiac T/A '87 pops up in “Fast and Furious 237 - more fasterer and furiouserer than the other sequelprequelidenticals” (not watched that or the other 8,391 instalments), maybe?
list so game requires the 1974 Dodge Monaco, from “Blues Brothers” (very funny) and the 1966 Lincoln Continental from “Animal House” (very funny) both of which need appropriate “aero” items
Thanks, much appreciated.
is this new, a change of year or a typo?
I’m glad somebody notices this stuff

This week something a little different…
One car with two tunes, eligible for four seasonal events and five PR stunts letting you earn 35 points!
The obvious hero car…(drumroll)
1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 - SC 160 444 698 (S1 900)
1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 - SC 127 589 925 (C600)
That’s right, I’m using this car in all the events it’s eligible for! Some PR stunts might be a little tricky but no worries, all of the smog equipment has been refurbished or replaced so that 70s tech is purring like a kitten!
Edit: Ended up getting 47 points in total with the 1979 Z28 and its two tunes. Did the arcade, smashables, and daily challenge with it as well.
The handful of pesky events not accepting 1979 Z28s…
Forzathon Weekly Challenge
“Mustang Madness”
1965 Ford Mustang GT Coupe - SC 412 390 706 (A800)
Plenty of ponies for prancing!
Eventlabs
"Crop Circle Stadium Rally S1 900 Hoonigan
1986 Hoonigan Ford RS200 Evolution - SC 146 117 066 (S1 900)
“The Wild Wild West //Street//” S1 900 Modern Supercars (USA)
2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray - SC 130 977 219 (S1 900)
No tunes required really but at least these are decent ones to have.
RA Seasonal Championship
“What’s It Cosworth?” A800 Rally Monsters
2018 Subaru WRX STI ARX Supercar - SC 575 794 065 (A800)
This car is too much fun!
As always, your support is appreciated and I hope to see some 1979 Z28s out and about this week!
Best of luck and thanks for keeping it Cashless!! Happy driving all!!
I’m sure the ‘Gods of the Tuning Braintrust’ will create some magic… here they are ‘awaiting in the clouds’ for the latest season to be unleashed…
Thanks for that; always nice to have a single car flexible enough to knock out the chores equally & be done with it. I’ve got the updated livery for that one as well for anyone interested (thanks to @AnakalaRon’s previous request) as well as the original.
Design SC: 119 991 591 - “NHRA Drag Mod Z”
so who’s who there?!
Starts out as a beat up yellow VW Beetle. Ends as a modern Camaro, but only briefly at the end.
Fair movie reviews Only one I can add is if the '68 Mustang is a fastback in the game ? (can’t recall). If so then that’s gotta be from Bullit (Steve McQueen). A couple others are maybe ringing bells but not sure.
the Ford Mustang '68 is in the game, 2+2 Fastback
Anyone else feeling like driving on ice in the first race of the Trial, or is it my car/tune?
Two easy wins in the Trial today. Trying not to run over my teammates at the start was my biggest issue. No one else must of got the Camaro memo as it was me and all Mustangs!
Best of luck to all!
Chevrolet 2017 Camaro ZL1 (Cars and Stripes by @x_ShadowsBane_x ): 655 601 446
(the Man City livery and Cashed Out are both compatible with the tune)
I know the buyout value of the new cars increases as demand increases after the season is over, but I really don’t want these crapbox EVs in my garage. I’ll take the 200K and no EV in my garage over 10 million and an EV in my garage for another month.
Credits are easy enough to come by anyway, and there’s not a ton of use for them these days. Especially if you use their stupid autoshow car vouchers. Then I guess you don’t need credits at all.
PrismaShelbyWide: 657 158 691
The previous livery didn’t properly account for the wide body kit (because I wasn’t smart enough to go ahead and throw on a wide body kit myself and the existing tune I had didn’t have one). The other one doesn’t look terrible, but this one accounts for the lower contours better and the Shelby logo is slightly smaller so it doesn’t get all bendy.
We “won” our trial thanks to the “trail” bug. Won the first, lost the second for a win overall. Hard to complain about benefitting from a bug… but it’s still a bug.
Polls added to post #2 - please vote once you have completed the season!
it’s a typo, it’s Ford F-150 '86
rather unusually, it’s a car I do want to collect (to have one with the preset installed for whatever reason)
