John is off so we didn’t do a DLC clue thread. That said, I popped a couple of clues in today’s WIR; go see if you can figure them out. July DLC arrives on Tuesday and it’s a doooooozy!
Oh and Jav is livestreaming some painting today over at the official Forza Twitch channel beginning at 3 p.m. Pacific. Go watch. He makes good with the pictures.
Have a good one, folks.
Here are Mechberg’s clues from the WIR --Johniwanna
Another “Grand Prix Legend”.
Ascari almost won in it.
Pure poison.
Adding the clues I came up with today.–Johniwanna
Here are a few more clues for you:
Car 4 clue 1
Ferdinand Porsche designed cars other than VWs and Porsches.
Car 5 clue 1
It ain’t a Beauville, and I never understood that name.
Car 6 clue 1
Around the farm this old boy would serve you well.
Adding the last of the clues for the day.–Johniwanna
Car seven clue 1
“last of the V8 interceptors”
Car eight clue 1
You don’t have to jump through quite as many rings to to spin up thiS ride. But the driving experience is Still sure to Satisfy.
Car nine clue 1
One of the rungs on the ladder to being immortalized as a racing hero.
Car ten clue 1
It was accused of copying the Mustang, and is considered anything but dull by JDM enthusiasts.
You’re almost as bad as John! Vague clues. I’ll take a shot at three though, sounds like a snake. Cobra, Cobra Mustang or Viper. We have a Cobra, I can’t think of any Viper’s that haven’t been added, so that leaves a Mustang. Maybe an 03/04 Cobra? It’s heavily requested. Or maybe an old 60’s Mustang with a Cobra Jet engine. 1968 Shelby GT500KR? That’s my guess.
Not a bad fill in Mechberg. Not a big Country Squire fan in real life, although we had fun in my buddy’s mother’s Safari, favorite wagon is probably the Nomad (once ran into one on my bicycle). Biggest complaint about the 2.4 hour challenges is that unless you are there at the start of a lobby, you have to wait for whatever time is left, maybe one start every half hour or so would suit me better at least. I have really enjoyed the variety of cars like Indy Lite, '39 Maserati, Brabham, Coyote in the recent DLC. This is saying something since my skill level declines rapidly as I approach X class (exponentially is probably a better word). Hope you and John both have a nice Canada day (July 1st).
now excuse me while I go and see what the boys have cooked up for our next Forza 4 Forums Rivals event: KING OF THE TRACK RIVALS CHALLENGE - JULY - “LEDERHOSEN SMACK DOWN !!” [LINK]

Thank you so much Brian (and of course John’s involvement as well) for the W.I.R. feature of the Tanner Foust GTO project that’s shared on FM5. I sent you a PM regarding something about it if you could be so kind to reply when you get a chance. thanks again.
I’ll have to look a little closer on the clues in the article and post here later.
Great WIR article! Both the Upload McLaren P1 and VIP BMW look amazing, and it was fun tackling the 16-mile Nurburgring circuit in a stock P1. I’m excited to see what the July pack has in store for next week!
July pack guesses:
1 - too many choices for this one
2 - '51 Ferrari 375
3 - '13 Lamborghini Veneno
Great post! The Bmw has an awesome design nurburgring design, im looking forward to the release of forza horizon 2. Watching videos just makes me more eager! Im looking forward to the upcoming contests and cant wait to see the winners!
Oh! And I am delighted to have received the special McLaren P1™ featuring a sweet Upload-themed livery created by the Forza Community Team.

First ever time listening to “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” and was impressed by actress Sarah Jessica Parker who is nothing like her “…City” television series. Enjoyed hearing her memories of the red 1966 Ford Country Squire and the family recollections. Now I’m going find time to listen to more of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Thanks for the introduction.
Some of you may recall the 1966 Ford Country Squire from Forza Horizon. I drove a green one with the wood paneling painted to resemble BACON.
oh wow that suck’s, That Mclaren P1 Upload Livery Is Nice, & I Recorded ton’s of video’s this past month of the ring. & I Uploaded a few i’m sure of too to onedrive. but i didn’t notice there was a upload contest at all or i would of joined on the first day. the VIP Car look’s really nice!.. On the Ring Challenge i ran 300 mile’s. or 299 it finished right as it switched over. & landed in third place out of 7 people, & it was luckily a clean race! the first time i tried it, it crashed me out of the server 2 hours in! … & Again that suck’s about that Upload Contest, I Wasn’t even aware of it. that’s the 10th time this has happened to me. & i actually do read the articles every week. Can’t wait to see the July Car’s. Hope there’s some newer Super Car’s like the Lamborghini Veneno Or Sesto Elemento. or something similar…
Nice read about your 2.4h race, tried to watch the recorded stream, but was just too long
Think I had a bit of an easy start at the 2.4h race, no crash and I was fairly ahead when it went on the Nordschleife.
