Almost lost it on this corner:

 

I wish I could drive there too

Oh, wait I think I can

 

That is an AWESOME picture. Please don't tell me thats out of GT5 or something lol.

 

please excuse spelling issues below, I'm typing this on my iPhone.

It's Forza Motorsport 3. I made an exact tuned copy of my C32. Same coilovers, ride-height and dampening stiffness (my KW coils have adjustable damping). Under braking upgrades, there is an option for upgrading just the lines and pads (though there is an option for a big brake kit, but I wanted an exact replica as I have stainless lines and EBC redstuff pads). Under tires there are varying levels of tires from stock to a stickier performance tire to straight up slicks (you can also choose the width and aspect-ratio of the tire, as well as choose wheels from sooo many brands with the exact correct weight for the real wheel. But my wheels are stock), I have summer tires on my car, so I chose the next thing up from stock. And lastly under power, I chose a supercharger upgrade that puts engine power to "394 bhp" which I think is somewhat close to what my car makes at the crank with the 185mm pulley and LET tune, and K&N filters. On any track this car feels and sounds EXACTLY like my C32. It is f@#king dead on!!!! The gear ratios are true, as is the final drive. The weight of the car, the power/torque, the front to rear weight bias, the engine redline is all correct (even the interior isdead on down to the most minute detail). The suspension has the same issues I notice in real life. The exhaust note in the game is our real exhaust note ( the spend hours on the dyno with each carin thegame in ever gear at varying throttle loads to record every cars exhaust note).

This is a true simulator with thousands and thousands of hours of research and took years and years to create. It's not just some arcade game. Imnot really into videos games, but this is just insane. The tracks are all dead on, millimeter perfect replicas done I. Painstaking detail. I could go on!!!

Everycar I've ever owned that is on this game that I have played has just blown me away with just how real it feels. My girl drives an '88 VW GTI with a modern VR6 motor swapped in, I have made a replica her car too (engine swaps are an option on this game), with her correct coilovers suspension and even the same cams that are in her motor), it too just just eerily real.

 

i'm still waiting for FM3 to go on sale. lol

 

It really is an awesome game, I have Forza 2, and I've got a c32 with the C55 V8 in it. And I've got that GTI with the R32 engine/drivetrain making 600+ hp

 

Forza 2? Have you played 3? World of difference!!! Not to mention the graphics are pretty decent now. Making hybrids is very fun on this game. I put the mercedes-mclaren SLR motor in my C32 just see what it would be like...f#@king death trap!!!!

 

FM3 is a big improvement to FM2. The in-game physics were almost dead on in FM2, but the track graphics were lacking big time. FM3 has great background graphics, and perfect real world physics. Amazing game!

 

yeah I know but I don't have a lot of down time to play races and such, and Forza 2 has a glitch so I can have whatever I want!

I have real life to not be able to afford mods or whatever car I want lol

 

Noooooooo. Would have been an awesome picture though.

My friend actually works for the development team for Forza. He does the 3d modeling and sound captures here in WA. For their release party they sent him and his team to sweden for a couple of weeks....


TO DRIVE GT3 CUP CARS!!!!!

Jealous overwhelming.

 

I want to learn how to drift. I'm not that brave enough. lol

 

I hate your friend. Deeply. I just can't believe people can land these dream jobs

I can't wait to finish school one day....

 

ah sorry, double checked. It was for Need for Speed: Shift, not Forza.
