funny that, so did i! what did you race? 1/10th off road wins! i get the shakes from the start as well, thats why everyone goes quiet lol No way!? At what level, Club, National? I may have even raced against you! I did 1/10th off-road for a long time, about 10-15 years, then I did touring cars for a bit, but since my little boy arrived I dont get the time. Will be great once he is old enough to come with me, and then to race! I used to race for Team Losi via their uk distributor (and they still let me order bits to this day!)

Sounds like we've nearly got a full house! Just remembered that I dont actually have many cars in my garage - might have to go on a spending spree before hand!

Glad its not just me! I was a little shakey on the line and for the first couple of laps, took me a while to settle down, its just the buzz of competition! I used to do alot of RC racing, and it feels just the same! Sad eh!

Awesome pics! I'll do the same later. Did we all enjoy the race? There didn't appear to be as much overtaking/chatting etc...guess thats because we are all concentrating! I think it would be better if we had a couple of warm up races before hand, because they are actually more fun! I guess with TG on at 8:30 we couldn't do that this time around.

I was lucky enough to start from pole and managed to stay out of trouble in the first corner, my 6 turbo's proving their worth, hehee :D Anyone up for some racing tonite? Doesn't have to be Corrado specific, maybe a bit of a mix of classes - I'll be on from about 8 ish hopefully if anyone is around.

You can check the leaderboard (set to friends) after you complete a 'hot lap' session, although it will only show laps with no penalities, so its rather useless for this track!

Well my router's firmware has been updated and I managed 6 or so races online last night with no problems, fingers crossed!!!! Also had a quick few laps on the track we are to race on sunday. Is it me or is it nearly impossible to do a fast lap without getting a penalty!? I think there is going to be some serious 'curb action' in the race on sunday, its the only way to get a good time!

Junkie!? I ain't no junkie!!! :D

Yeah, the NAT settings are another pain :censored: . Seems that there is a Firmware update being rolled out ATM to address the issues with Forza3, but also other games too, so BT were aware of a problem. Its supposed to be complete by xmas, but I cant wait that long!!! Their suggested workaround was to also have your pc on and listen to something like internet radio to keep the data traffic incoming - madness!!!!

Yeah, I retired my old Netgear when we upgraded our connection, it was handy because we use the VoIP phone. But for Sunday I'll bring it back into service, if I can find the power supply!

A quick google and it appears I'm not the only one with a BT Home Hub 2.0 that crashes and drops whilst playing forza... http://forums.forzamotorsport.net/forums/3310693/ShowThread.aspx Gonna have to get myself a new router!!!

Trying to go round the outside of Alex, it was close, but we didn't touch!

Good effort Yan, I've only just completed year 1!!!! Trouble is I am now spending all my time testing & painting my car ready for the CF races on Sunday! Need to get back to the career stuff!

Cool vid and pics Yan! Still gutted about my connection dropping, was enjoying myself trying to overtake you whilst in a nice loooooong drift!! Maybe this Sunday eh!?

Fecking great, connection drops, everyone dissappears and I'm racing myself....ho hum.

Finally found a good setup, from struggling to get into the 8:50's to 8:44.2!!! Wahoo, it's gonna be one looooooong race though!!!

Good effort! We want a nice close race sunday. As I was doing some test laps today, I was thinking how hard this track is gonna be to pass on, its rather narrow! 2nd gear, pedal to the metal! heheeee

Here's a couple of pics from the first corner @ Silverstone last sunday... passat climatronic wiring diags.pdfsilver2.jpg[/attachment:126zd7jh]climatronic wiring-Golf from May 01.pdfsilver1.jpg[/attachment:126zd7jh] Plus a couple of me getting it all crossed up in front of Mattski and Yan at Motegi in the race before! 2.8l 24v Climatronic system.pdfdk.jpg[/attachment:126zd7jh]dk2.jpg[/attachment:126zd7jh]

Best effort so far 9:06 8:56 with my super-dooper-turbo charger kit on Incidently, I thought it would be cool if we all had proper numbers on our cars (dont have to, just an idea). I've uploaded a group to my storefront which you can d/l for free, although you'll need to add ur own number and 'bridgestone' logo sa you cant save manufacturer logos with groups apparently! :censored: I've gone for number 6... corrseb.jpg[/attachment:11mx8aui]

I had those on my car for about 7 years until I put Weitec adjustables on. I found the ride very driveable and the 35mm drop is reasonable. For the price I'd say they are worth it. Shame this didn't come round sooner as I sold them to a mate for £30!! I only changed mine because I wanted to go lower and have the ability to adjust them. The Weitecs are much stiffer, but thats the price you pay, but as Brucey would say, 'you were right to go lower'! :D :D

You have to upload the video file to the FM3 server go to your my forza page on the forza 3 home page, then download the single video clip (within 24 hours) and then finally upload the next one from the xbox. Takes about 30 mins to upload a 30 second clip for me at 50MB. I've uploaded the vid to 'my storefront' but cant see it when I go to the Forza site, only the photos appear. How long does it take before it should show on the server?

Great vid Yan, awesome music aswell! Far too much of my car on there though, especially the first hairpin when I 'go round' the outside - then into the gravel! Hehehe

Great pics Yan, will try and u/l some myself if I can get the wife off the xbox tonite! How are you getting the video from the storefront to your pc to then upload?

Not as costly as turning up at 9! Sorry, had to be said! :lol: Funny thing is that the car felt almost dialled round the corners, when I was behind yan and swiftkid, I could catch them through the corner also...but the power was definately the biggest advantage :D .

Hehehe, I did actually mention it last night in the lobby, from the first two races it was obvious I'd gone for more power! Cant say I am looking forward to the 'ring tbh, I dont know it that well and I think its going to be a quiet race with cars spread out, I hope not though.
