Ohh and btw.

I just ran an 8:19.75 on the Ring in my B Stock 135i. Thats the 453rd best B Class Ring time in the world and im the highest B Class 135i on the list!

Awesome How much do you want for it? Did it cost you credits or did it just come downloaded into your garage with the Limited edition version? I dont want to make you loose credits for nothing. I have yet to buy the game and rented it trying to decide if i wanted the LE VIP version or the regular. My local gamestop has the limited edition.

I would say just to buy the LCE version. It comes with a crap load of cars and tracks.

Just an FYI, its set up like DLC, whereas you need to pay in game money for the cars.

Heres a short list:

Aston Martin DBS 260,000
BMW M1 140,000
ZR1 100,000
F430 Scuderia 270,000
Gallardo Superleggera 195,000

At this point I only own the Gallardo, but I have upgraded it to R3 and it is an absolute beast.

Heres a pic,

My neighbor has an orange Superleggera. it is amazing sounding. The guy across from him has a black SLR and a black F430 vert. I am surrounded by super cars but my favorite is the Aston Vanquish S owned by a guy on the street above me. It is humbling now since I do not have the power to keep up with those cars like I did with my Cobra.

Completely off topic, but I'm glad you liked my car THAT much that you had to make it your avatar...

On another note... I'll see what I can do on a tune for the 135i, if I like it, I'll be joining up with you guys

I know exactly what you are talking about. We have a weekly supercars meet on Long Island and we have an Orange Superleggera. We also have and Enzo and a Twin Turbo Ford GT.

I also was in London a few months back and saw 3 DIFFERENT Scuderias in one day. I know they were different because they were Red, Yellow, and Black. Now that V8 is something amazing.

Hey FogItNozzel you should go recheck the leaderboards I just retouched it a little bit! lol

. I love the competition I feel I could still shaved a good 5 to 10 sec's off with some more tunning. This challenge is going to be awesome! BTW add me on live and we can do some warm up laps! The lap I just ran was 08:18:939, that ranks me pretty much the highest B class 135i in the world! lol Cheers!

Same here man. I think I can shave another 5 seconds easy. 10 might be doable tho. But im not near Forza right now. What did you end up running?

elciddragon · 11-03-2009, 11:07 PM

Whats the easiest way for me to get set up with the bare bones system in order to play Forza 3? I currently have no Xbox360, and I feel its crazy to buy it new just for one game...what to do?

dont buy it for one game buy it for Forza and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 which is going to be a great game. Look on ebay to see if you can get a used unit.

heyimsam · 11-03-2009, 11:16 PM

i think abs on braking line off

JimBeemer · 11-04-2009, 09:39 AM

I broke 9 minutes in my upgraded 135i on the ring.

Are you guys who are setting good times doing it with the controller or the racing wheel? I bought the wheel, never used one before. It feels like it should be easier, as its easier to make slight steering adjustments with the wheel. But I tested on Mugello and my times with a controller are 3-5 seconds faster than with the wheel.

The MS wheel is decent, but I wish it was a little bigger in diameter, and a little more solid. I guess they have to keep it small so the force-feedback feels stronger.

im using the controller

my best time is 8:43

BrokenVert · 11-04-2009, 12:04 PM

I set my 8:19 with the controler. I have a lot of negative camber set on my car, which helps with finer adjustments in turns and such.

juan.manjarres · 11-04-2009, 12:29 PM

Yeah my time was set also with the xbox controller. I also have verts trick with the camber, also for those trying to control the car from being tail happy try softening the spring rates on the rear springs. Do note however if you do this too much you will begin to suffer with understeer, cheers!

anthony @ eas · 11-04-2009, 12:43 PM

OK, for the guys setting sub 8:20's, what do you have done to the cars? Power or handling? I've been tuning 2 135 B500s and I've found the heavy body-rolling high powered version gives me faster lap times than my lightened club racer. Any tips?

Mostly club racer style. I have only given my car a 15 HP bump, I have lightened the car, bigger tires, etc...but no roll bars, they actually make the car worse IMO.
