Week in Review 2/14/14

This week we’ve got a look at how you can help your fellow Forza community artists, a great “Forzatography” article, and a Valentine’s Challenge to everyone. Just to kick off the challenge, here’s my frankly stunning Valentine’s ode to my favorite Forza 5 car:

Think you can beat that? (Probably not). Give it a shot and I’ll award my favorites with something cool in Forza 5. Good luck!

When I was weak, you were strong
When I had no grip, you carried on
When I lost sight, you helped me see,
that your HorsePower means so much to me!

Here is my attempt. Nice challenge, very fun!!

Congrats on the award! I will definitely be looking forward to playing Forza 5 this year. I think this year I’ll get my Xbox ONE and play it so much! So far, Forza Motorsport 4 is my favorite.

Thanks!

Gongrats on the nomination!! I was really unlucky this year with the xbox one so maybe ill get it later. Also how did that happened to the corvettes :s Could a sink hole open under a house too? That would be scary to know.

Great WIR. Sad to hear about the Corvettes. I saw many of them 9 years ago when I visited the museum. Good to know that GM is going to help out with the restoration of all the cars, not just the two that were theirs. Glad it happened in the wee hours of the morning though, there easily could have been 50+ people in that area if it had happened when the museum was open.

It’s happened before. A man died in Florida about a year ago when a massive sinkhole opened under his bedroom while he was sleeping. Not unheard of, and listening to the news conferences from the NCM, sinkholes happen frequently in Kentucky, and Bowling Green is only about 20 miles away from Mammoth Cave National Park, the longest known cave system in the world.

Me Ferrari 312 T2,
Built in a time where there was no DRS or KERS,
No need for those with a flat-12 that purrs!
You were thrown in like a gladiator at the Ring,
and may be best known to the world for a fiery crash,
not knowing the changes to Formula 1 you would bring.
You have provided me with the most fun I’ve ever had on Forza,
so rightly called a “Rush”
I must run away now as all this mushy stuff is making me blush!

-still a good car though!

Those were quite some fans at the Super Bowl to endure the cold that lasted all week! Not to mention the trafficking of fans to and from the stadium on game day.

It isn’t Valentine’s Day without a visit from the Love Bug! And in the spirit of the holiday…

Bentley’s are blue,
The surprise is so sweet
When the Love Bug passes you”
