This is discussion for Forza 4 spec races within this forum and a few other car enthuasist forums.

Race 6 results of the C-class 425 NA miata are posted directly below this post




A summary of what goes on:

-The main race occurs once a week on Sundays at 9pm EST, unless otherwise posted.
-The races are "spec" as in we post all upgrades for the chosen car or cars for that particular race.
-Parts list are usually decided between myself and Zaccarter, we usually strive for a easy to drive car that is well balanced and is fun. We take all feedback from the racers and are not opposed to having other people chose the tunes.
-Upgrades are all the same unless otherwise posted, but the actual tune is up to the racer. Tire pressure, alignment,gearing, downforce, etc is all open.
-The races usually last 25 minutes, so number of laps vary depending on the car and track.
-8-10min warmup session, rolling start with the first lap to get in order. Order is determined by lap-times during warmup. Fastest times start in the back, slowest time in the front.
-Damage is on full simulation!!! We race clean and have only had one large incident where we had to restart the race(lag)

If you're interested post up your xbox live tag and I'll you to the list. This Sunday's race is a C-class miata on Maple Valley short, the spec parts will be listed tonight. I've personally lapped the car to turn a 44.3xx.

13.) A N D R 3 W 92 - DNF
14.) RageDerpin’ - DNF

Almost a full grid which was exciting, unfortunately it also led to some collisions and spins. The miata on the oval track proved to be interesting for sure; most likely this will be the last time we do a track as short as this because there was hardly room to stretch the cars legs out and get in some clean passing. A note to keep in mind also is that this league does race with simulation damage, so hard downshifts from 5th gear to 2nd will cause you to over rev your engine.

There was also some confusion to the flying start but with the track being so short and the new racer’s there wasn’t alot of room to group up. I’ll be making video of all of our flying laps to showcase and give everyone an idea on where to be and when to be there. The fastest of the warmup race will always be at the rear of the pack so they are handicapped and have to work though traffic, new racers will be at the front of the pack, ZacCarter will lead the pace lap and call go at the start finish line. We normally try to keep a pace of 50mph the entire lap; adjust your speed accordingly to get in our starting group as tight as possible.

As soon as the Forza servers come back online the replay will be hosted in my (ZacCarter’s) storefront of last nights race. The last few races are also posted too.

We look forward to next race as follows: Twin Ring Motegi // Full Circuit 1-8-12 9pm EST // JGTC GT500 Calsonic Skyline vs. Takata NSX vs. Exxon Supra

Stay tuned for parts lists and official test and tune schedule times.

Thanks guys! -ZacCarter

So there's no spec tune? With everything adjustable, it isn't very "spec"

 

[UrbanFuturistic]

So there's no spec tune? With everything adjustable, it isn't very "spec"

I thought it would be like SM. everyone runs the same cars and parts, but are left to their own devices on suspension tuning. Because, as far as I can tell, that's all anyone has control over.

 

[Mx-p5]

There is a spec Miata tune I can provide that whiteNA put together that's as close to the SCCA Spec build (spring rates are set, but you CAN adjust dampers and tire pressure.

Cause I'm inside the top 400 with your build tuned

The spec setup doesn't allow aero, or race trans or diff so the cars are dead even

 

[UrbanFuturistic]

I thought you were allowed to adjust camber, toe, caster, etc as well though. I know there's no way everyone runs the same settings on those.

I'm going to try to be off/home in time.

 

[Mx-p5]

Ah true. You're correct.

But you can't adjust aero or gearing

 

[flier129]

Spec parts, the actual tune is open. This is a c-class car, not a SM car.

Leaving the tune open allows for some interesting racing. I had less aero with the e30 we raced and was able to gain on people on the straights.Also leave the tune open to allow for different driving styles and if someone is using a wheel or not.


The next race after the holidays is with the JGTC cars and I have a feeling the tune will be a big part of it being a stable car. We may do a SM car sometime soon

Don't forget, tonight at 9pm est!!

 

[treeafodo]

I won't be able to race tonight. Work is too busy with Christmas to let me off early. Have fun guys.

 

[UrbanFuturistic]

I will certainly be there. I think I have a good setup, but I'll probably lose. I cold. Only turn a 47.0xx hot lap.
