Yeh thats true, its pretty rediculous, and pretty much it's why I stopped playing the game. I'm going take it out and replace it with the LS9.

Yeah no kidding! I suspect GT5 will come out around November of this year.

I used to have a 360 until an ex-girlfriend moved off to Portland with it. $700 bucks worth of system, accessories and games up and gone, with no way to retrieve it.

I dont want to buy a 360 again..but you folks and your Forza 3 (I had Forza 2 for the 360) are making me consider it.

Dude that game is awesome. It's not very releastic, but of course what racing game is lol, but it's a whole lot of fun to play. So far I've got a GT500, Ram SRT10 (540 Hemi Supercharged ), 2010 Camaro SS, etc.

What really surprised me about the game is the inclusion of trucks and suvs! It's especially fun when you fly by Z06s/Ford GTs with a SRT10. Even though the ~800 untuned (for now) HP is completely uncontrollable on the track though.

What do you mean? Do you mean you can't get it to handle, or you can't get good times?

I have to use Traction Control That's the only Assist I'll use, because it just isn't fun having to pedal all the time. I won't for the AWD cars, but the rest of the cars, unless they're stock, I'll use TC if I'm on-line with buddies. I just can't go that fast.

Have you used any assists? If you are looking for any ideas, I'll tell you that I use tranny settings close to OEM ZR1 ratios, I keep my front swaybar kinda' low and my rear near the lowest; my spring rates high in the front, lower in the rear; bound is high; rebound is about 70% of bound; and lowest ride height. With these settings, the car drives pretty comfortable for my style, and handling seems pretty neutral. That's just me though, and I still don't understand what you mean by it not being drivable...

If you got the money, it's worth getting, if you as me; I'm a Playstation person, myself, and am totally glad I got it. JMVHO.

Traction Control FTW! I hate to use it, but I can't go fast in these cars without it. It's more fun, but if I want to win races against my friends, who are using TC, that's what I gotta' do.

I have one. Found it in the store front. I think it's locked so you can't change the color, but it's a dead on replica of the orange stripe.

And radz, I'm right with you. If it's RWD, I'll use TC and that's it. But even then, the handling suuuuucks. I think my Camaro when it was set up A600 for track use, I never got it better then 6.0 handling. And even with the TC, playing cat and mouse and tag I need to be able to stop (usually by hitting someone) and get right back going again quick. Can't do that as well with RWD.

I love Forza 3, the only thing is, they screwed up the Camaro's taillights. When you step on the brake, only the outside lights come on! Like, seriously!

I have 3, a B class (blue one), A class (RCMP cop car), and an S class Convertible LS9 powered one (not shown).







and I love my CTS V... and ZR1 the blue ones of course!
