As for the F1 really. Just wondered if people wanted to set one up for GT5?
Not sure how the other one works so hoping someone from the F1 will come and take over- i'm just here to start the ball rolling

There was a Forza one going but it died out when F1 came along. Each week pick a car and track, person with the fastest time wins that week. Then we moved onto a season of 6 or so races with points awarded to see who won overall

I'd be well up for this. I was thinking about this well before GT5 arrived (Forza thread was making me jealous cause I couldn't join in )
But then F1 2010 arrived and that with GT5 A-Spec kinda kept me busy enough to not start a GT5 thread.

I assume we would have to do this in arcade mode due to mods that cant be taken off etc??

i literally got the game today so whatever everyone wants to do i'll do it and we can see what happens. just a bit of fun

i'd be up for it

The way i set up Forza was to use standard cars with any assists you wanted, then we went for using race set ups and modded cars depending on where you finished the previous race (i.e if you finished last, you had a modded engine, lowered suspension and slicks for the next race to give u more of an advantage)

Maybe start with a cheap crappy car?

Can't do weight adjustment on gt5 as you can't take it off again. Will have a think but to start i reckon standard cars

ill be up for it

how about a stock mazda mx5 on Autumn Ring or an elise around the nurburgring ?

I like the idea of shorter tracks. People loose interest if it's a very long lap.

is there the top gear track in arcade mode ? I cant remember :S

Shorter track is better, easier to learn etc so people can do quite a few laps in 10mins rather than one lap of the ring!

Plus the times are closer

OK then autumn ring with MX-5 - how does that sound?

Sounds good to me. Which mx5?

I'm not sure but proberbly easier to do them in practice mode. Not sure if you can pick all the cars in arcade mode
