Would anyone like to team up with me? I won't be able to make it, so you will be on your own. :)

I've never done anything like this before, how do you change stints on forza??

Posted by DANDAN140787I've never done anything like this before, how do you change stints on forza??

Two different races. Driver for stint one would be in the first room, then once that race is complete the drivers get switched. It simulates the pit stops that happen in a real endurance race.

do you just add laps/times together of both races?? sorry for sounding completely dumb, comes with being a noob , only ever raced f1 leagues first time ive branched out with forza

It will be based on distance driven. We will total up stints 1 and 2.

What are you guys times looking like?

Word is that the aliens are running somewhere in the 2:05 - 2:06 range. Speed is great, but running clean and consistent is what's key in a long race like this.

Good luck guys. I'm out. I have a league race I have to host at 4:15pm or so. And it sounds like the format will not allow odd timed driver changes.

If you could handle 3 hours, I would team up with you Dan. But best of luck if you can find a partner.

going to do some times around here later today, will put times up and if one can handle my slowness and wants to be my team mate im in :)

just tryed doing a lap or two, no assists in this car with the gamepad is awful. cars a dog, to many revs to much of the time

Anyone fancy sharing a tune :-) I'm using the falcon and it's brutal!
Lap times are awful, best so far using a tuned by worm tune is 2:12.778! is the other car any better?

Does that setup have upgrades? Most of his stuff is with upgrades. Just curious. And I haven't started working on this yet or I would try to help out.

No it did not have any parts although it's not the best for this track

The Worm tune on the Ford is not bad. It seems to lack top end, but I drive 2-3 seconds faster in it than any other tune, including my own. If anyone wants to run a red Go Pro paint scheme (or whatever, if the rules can be bent) I can run the Ford in the second stint. Warning though: I'm crap here. This is an insane place for a long race in these cars (although I get the idea, since it happens in real life), but I'll do my best. Currently only around a 2:14. But have room for improvement. Staying off the walls will be a challenge but feel it's possible with a compromise in speed.

i find the holden the better car at the moment, using that with no tune im at 2.16, its lucky we have 10 days still to practice

I found a tune for the Holden that seems to help GT = (RelaxedPRKid) it's stock parts so we can use this tune.

Best so far = 2:10.570, pretty sure with practice I could get down to 2:08 - 2:09 just need to get the braking points dialed in.
