| For the first time the Forza Sports Car Series Travels to the tight technical course of Tsukuba. This track was built to attract a young crowd into motorsports back in the late 60's early 70's. It has done just that with a variety of corners and a short layout that doesn't allow for extreme speeds which wIll make the passing a crucial factor for this race.

| congratulation hot shot! I wish i had been able to keep my concentration. After droping from 2nd to 7th i was pretty much waiting for the race to end and with the accident with dwilkerson i didn't felt like doing 30 more lap with a twichy car. Anyway hopefully i'll do better on next race. Alteast the few lap i did was worth it, lots of action and the field all in less then 10 second from the first to the last, it was pretty intense. I never really liked this track but the action it gave made it worth it. |

Metal, i apologize, i should have slowed down to where u guys almost lapped me then stepped on it just so you could chase the rabbit on the back bumper man, i feel like i let u down lol! | |

| you got lucky with that one corner thats all im saying lol it was a good race indeed, it should have been mine, i was rather surprised though at that track of all places.
after looking at the replay , btw ty hotshot, i was kinda surprised at the tire temperatures mid race lol, some of us on the limit were in the high 240 - 220 degrees, and others were on barely 160 - 180 degrees tires... lol just a thought, maybe its replay lag idk. maybe an idea, if this game judges based off ire pressure and what not, idk
hmm maybe a new thread topic... ?

| Yeah, it was a tightly fought race by everyone. I thought there would be more mayhem due to the fast tight corners leading directly into heavy braking zones. Everyone drove very well! Of course there were a couple of small incidents but nothing major. Moi1029 sometimes you gotta stick it out! Congrats to ya hotshot! you and Metal pulled just far enough ahead of the pack to where you guys were able to run juuuuust a bit cleaner and faster laps. My prediction for this track was either the Lotus or the Rossion...I was like when Metal was leading for most of the race! As for your tires I was looking at that..Some peoples tires were really abused by that race while others were not. I guess us smooth drivers are easier on our tires while you rough riders wear yours out. | |

I guess us smooth drivers are easier on our tires while you rough riders wear yours out. yea i have a controller so when i lock the right thumb stick let or right, its like it pushes the tire to just passed the max grip so they are always scrubbing a bit, ie red friction circles. as for the corvette's performance on this track, im a little shocked, but it makes sense, my corvette compared to most cars in the series, has a high acceleration, and top speed, vs not being able to brake as well, nor have as much down force...... BUT!!!!!!.... i noticed this last season trying to decide on a car. the corvette's mechanical grip at slow speeds, ie hairpins, out does that of a mclaren, so through the corners i was near going as fast as hotshot, its just i need more time to brake than he does. there was only really one high speed down force corner at this track, which hotshot gained ground on me pretty much every lap he didn't get loose. but the rest are virtually hairpins to me so i was able to stay ahead with my exit speed and acceleration, it was a very awesome race, and im really looking forward to laguna | |

| I could have driven to the end of the race but i was already a bit (quite a lot) pissed off by my performance and driving 25 more lap with no rear wing while my setup is already loose was not very attractive for me. I might be giving up easily but i'm like that. Anyway, i started practicing already on laguna seca so i'll probably do less mistake then i did on tsukuba. Oh well, atleast i didn't flipped my car. |
