to be completely honest, i didnt race too much online. i got it before i was into online racing and so thats my goal for tonight, decide if i like the online or not lol. althought kudos. they have weather effects, a creat a track mode, anf they have added SPA, Twin Ring, and some other tracks. and they are still updating. seems they wanted to make one game for the ps3 and just build off of it. I wonder if they will do the same for the ps4. they also had a race car only pack, where they added touring cars, gt300/500 and other cars that are not in forza at all. it seems liek tehy looked at what forza was missing and threw it all in there. i would be excited for gt6 judging by what they accomplished with however many (2?) years of updates.

Also im almost positive this wasnt there before but now you can choose how many liters of fuel, individual tires (the compounds) and there is a pit crew.

Not sure on how true these photos are but apparently these photos are leaks of the convertible Corvette C7.






if these images are accurate it shows that the convertible will have a smaller rear spoiler and smaller sized alloys available (this is from the website auto car)

from what they can tell they believe it has a fabric roof as well to help save weight.

So I've just gone to the Detroit auto show and saw the famed C7 everyone is talking about. The pictures don't do the car any justice at all, the hood doesn't quite fit with the whole look. Also just about every one in the world thinks the front looks like a viper and the rear a camaro (that's coming from a lot of Mopar people too, go figure ), but also quite a bit of people love the way it looks too.

It's a beautiful car, I was slightly disappointed with the power plant under the hood. I felt like they were cheap when it came to the motor only 450hp and "estimated" 450ftlbs of torque. I understand this isn't there "performance" model but I still think the base model could have been a little more impressive on the performance side. (not saying 450hp isn't a lot but considering just about every pickup truck these days has close to 400hp this isn't impressive to me)

Its the base model the z06 and zr1 has about 1yr and a half before we even see it.
So don't worry about hp.

I poke my nose around still, just don't have time to race.

Blahzay I don't know if they'll have a Z06 model, I think they're trying to do the whole retro thing and keep the stingray around for a minute. I could see them doing like a LS4 and L88 package if they're going to try retro, but getting a 454 in the front of these cars would be a sight to see lol...

That would be awesome. I would love to see some classic packages come out for this thing. It would he cool to see an L88 again. You think they would do the ZR1? That was around with the old ones.

I read somewhere there will be a Z06 variant.
