Click For Season Schedule

For the 8th time, the Forza Sports Car Series will open its season at America's greatest sports car race, The 8th annual Forza 4, 2 Hours of Sebring presented by GameStop, ALMS & Cincosport. A demanding endurance race inspired by the 12 Hours of Sebring in the ALMS. No track has more tradition or brings a larger crowd than Sebring. One of the reasons the race is considered so difficult is that part of the original concrete-slab runway—bumps, seams, and all—provides a brutish racing surface at Sunset Bend, a high-speed, large radius turn in between the Ullman Straight and the front straight where your suspension tuning will be severely tested. In its original configuration, it did not take long for Sebring to become the American venue of choice for European manufacturers to show off their latest creations—a tradition that continues to the present day with the Forza Sports Car Series. Prepare for the bumps and bruises of one of the worlds fastest tracks...Feel the need and watch the speed!

What Hired said, it's always been Wednesday/Thursday

The Times are starting to trickle in. View the website to keep up to date on qualifying. FSCS WEBSITE

Qualifying opens Wednesday or Thursday as it has for far back as I can remember. It takes time to review replays, check HP and torque numbers, check for on track incidents, look at random tires to insure they are race tires etc, do team points, racer points...Tech takes time.

Alright, I thought wrong.

Anybody up for some laps this evening? I'm on now and will probably be on for a bit. Let me know what you guys think.

I will be on early today. Most likely in about 30 minutes if I get home around then.

I will probably be on later I am playing empire: Total War (I know I am sad lol)

Almost ready for tha opening...



Track Walk/Drive-through

Ill be there to qualify/practice do you think friday or saturday night you could help me get set up with a prerace? I dont have some of the DLC cars on the list so so would need approved replacements.

Insomniac Racing and the crew showed up earlier today at Sebring. Arriving a couple days early to make that last practice session before they put there qualifying times in. The picture shows Insomniac Racing drivers during a meet and greet with some of the fans that came out early to welcome the drivers to this fantastic venue.

I can't say much else, but that picture is awesome

Nice.

I'll be on at random times over the weekend to get practice/qualifying in.

Nice picture guys.

Hope you guys don't have any incedents. Theres no way you can fit to many spare parts in that thing .

Our hauler is loaded, its just not in the pic.

When praticing I noticed that one of the clouds look like th south of Great Britain



I can't stop looking at it, but it doesn't mess up my concentration because I see it on the straights.
