Forza no assist/cockpit view race - Saturday 10th May

Hi everybody…

After a very fun race on the weekend I’ve set up another

http://insidesimracing.tv/forums/topic/13366-forza-5-race-saturday-10th-may-10pm-2200-gmt/

I’d prefer if you signed up to the ISR forums to put your name on the list as I miss messages on here. Only takes a few minutes. That’s where we usually chat about set-ups, cars and so forth…

The track is Silverstone… We’re using cars found by going to buy cars > filter > then select only B class cars and RWD. Once you see that selection of cars you’re free to choose from any of them (around 30 in total); and you’re also allowed to upgrade your car to A class
I made a little video of a few of the cars available


Last weekend, its worth saying that given it was the first time me and the others raced together, the driving was very respectful and I’m really finding a good bunch of people who enjoy taking the game to its limits, while ensuring clean racing as a priority… There were some simply epic battles having watched the replay back. We have some who don’t usually use cockpit camera, but regardless of what they say the were extremely competitive after only a weeks’ practice.

Hope to see a few of you join us anyway

Peace

This sounds like fun to me. I hope you send me an invite, then, I hope I’ll be available.
There is racing on the tube this weekend.

I understand… Something at Indy and the might Grand Prix. We’re safe on the F1 front

I’ll add you to my friend list and to the list on Inside Sim Racing

Would love to do this, but will likely be away from the xbox on saturday :frowning: I’ll let you know if I’m able though, last week was good fun!

Awesome… I’ll stick you on the list just to make sure I check that you’re on

I signed up to ISR but my validation isn’t coming through so I’ll ask the question here. I know the rule is that the car must be RWD and start in B class but would say a car that has been converted to RWD and sits in B class be allowed?

In a word, no… The only cars you’re allowed are filtered B class RW cars only… You’re allowed to upgrade them to A-class. No 4WD converts.

I know what you’re saying… You could get a top of the range lambo and change to it RWdrive and it will bring it down to a B-class… Not allowed for this race unfortunately

That being said, next week we’ll try to have a different bunch of cars so any suggestions for next weekend will always be welcome

I was actually hoping to run a RWD R35 (been looking at the 2014 Super GT pictures and realised how much I like them again!) but I hadn’t checked to see if the RWD swap drops it to B class first. It doesn’t so my idea was sunk anyway! I will be racing tomorrow too, really need to get a car sorted tonight though.

EDIT: I also think a mandatory pitstop might be an idea for these races? just to add a little more excitement.

If you guys are ok with a beginner like me i’d love to join you guys!

Its up to you really mate. assists will be turned off other than you’re allowed autoclutch… And cockpit view will be forced… If you’re okay with that you’re more than welcome to join us

I added you to the list… I’ll be sending out invites at around 21:45 GMT

When do you guys usually run these events. If im not working i will join in on the fun but i do work quite a bit on the weekend.

They’re just fun races at the moment… Trying to fish out the no assist cockpit drivers so the day/time is set on a week by week basis

Would like to run some in the week ideally too but there just isn’t enough interest at the moment

Where do you live? I’m in UK… Its set at that time to theoretically give Non-Europeans a chance to join in. Hopefully you can join us… I’ll stick you down on my list as a maybe if you want so at least you get an invite

Im at central time. Just let me know when you guys are racing and if im off i will jump in there with you guys for a few races or so. I always like taking a brake from hoppers to race with people that know what they are doing.

Sounds good… This race is 18 laps of Silverstone… The cars you’re able to use are B class RW drive cars… But you’re allowed to upgrade it to A class. I suggest getting a car kitted out just in case

We’ll probably have another race when we finish the 18 lapper… We’ll do cars and tracks on the fly if we run more
