Rear View Mirror 5-5-14

I was there too! Add a link to this: http://forums.forza.net/turn10_postst14149_Monterey-Grand-Prix.aspx

That’s my photo collection!

Great read by the way.

Wonderful article, John. The photos from VoodooUomo are fantastic. Speaking of which, is there a link to his photo gallery, or are the photos posted in the article the only ones available? Also, the on-board Lamborghini footage from Aleks Altberg was nothing short of incredible. Nothing beats footage filmed from within the cockpit. If only the video itself was a bit longer…

Hello John,

another great Article. Thanks for the Link of the Lamborghini Video.
I love the Sound , it’s amazing.
It’s always nice to see Races on Laguna Seca.

The race was sure a challenge, especially having to go down the Corkscrew a countless number of times! No wonder why Laguna Seca is one of the world’s most demanding and challenging courses!

I’m glad you guys are liking the photos. I sent those very quickly to johniwanna so that he can publish them this week, but I have about 3000 more photos that I have yet to go through, cull, process, and post.
My album on Flickr currently has 38 photos but I’ll be posting a few more every day for a while to come:

So keep checking back and do let me know if you’d like to see any specific car/corner/team and I’ll do my best to find a matching photo to post.

There’s something I just love about Laguna Seca. I really can’t say what it is, but that track is just so cool to me. I always seem to have some intense races there in Forza :wink: Thanks for sharing those awesome pictures with us Jon! And congratulations to Doran Racing, you guys are living the dream! Keep at it!

Oh yeah, and that Lambo vid was incredible!

Greetings John,

Long time reader but first time poster. Just wanted to let you know I’m yet another person who’s really been enjoying your articles. Thanks for sharing another great one. I sure hope I can make it to Laguna Seca at some point in the future to finally see it in person!

Cheers, and keep up the good work!

That was a great read as usual. Nice video and the Lamborghini Super Trofeo is coming along nicely. The 570 BHP V10 is a screamer and sounds as good as it every has. Up LAMBO!!!

I love how Forza allows us to race on these tracks with similar cars as the pros because that allows me to relate with the drivers (as I predict the turns of the track while watching the race).

Specifically in Laguna Seca, about 1:09 in, where #25 goes down that hill which looks intimidating for me in cockpit view. That hill has caused me to restart some of my races a couple times but he clears that hill only to get caught up in the 2nd to last turn for the finish. I know I would’ve been pissed to lose my position due to a lower class car.

I also love how that Corvette won’t let the higher class car pass him up from 3:46-4:16 because I do it all the time …I kinda like to show 'em who’s boss in a slower car. lol

Overall, I enjoyed the article John and VoodooUomo took some great photos (I think that Lamborghini’s headlight stared into my soul).

I hope I can receive a unicorn car because its going to be my last achievement for 100%.
