I finally found the hangar. It's the big square shaped benchmark track. As for the Tx plate. Holy Crap that's a lot of work just to make a license plate lol. I've only made one vinyl group and that was to put the driver name on the side of my cars so it's really just a custom sticker.

Has anyone played Forza 3 and iRacing? Comparison?

**762** · 10-30-2009, 10:41 AM

I personally have not, but here is a link to the inside sim racing review of Forza. They certainly have played iracing.

haha thats nothing, I just finished making a fender flare shading group and carbon fiber weave that were around 600+ layers.

If found out they can't go much higher than that on the back of the car anyway. Right now with my Texas plate on the back I pretty much can't put anything else on there it takes up too many layers and you're only allotted 500 layers on the back.

ETA-That Mona Lisa roof painting is nuts. I would have to sit down and really mess with it to even get stick figures ontop of my car lol.

I have the Microsoft wheel and pedals. Wish it had a simple clutch pedal. I can do manual w clutch with the regular controller but not with the wheel and pedals cause I have to reach over for the A button for the clutch when shifting on that setup.

If you go to my storefront I've got a replay uploaded of a guy who sideswiped me once and rammed me from behind when braking for the uphill chicane on Road Atlanta.

He was running a 1000hp Integra I think. I was driving a C.6 Racing Vette

I have only played forza2, and I am playing iRacing. Really there is no comparison. The Xbox is just not going to have the physics engine of a computer. Also the online ratings of iRacing really keep the racing fairly clean. It isn't perfect, but no one is being too stupid. I rarely got in good racing in Forza 2. Of course Forza is cheaper over a period of time than iracing, and also has a much larger selection of cars and tracks. What I like about iracing, is that there is on AI. It is online or nothing, so there are no races where you are driving along just to lap the field, so that you can unlock a certain track or car. I'll probably pick of Forza later, maybe get it for christmas or something.

Picked up Forza 3 today. Coolest game ever!

**blackzx3_13** · 12-12-2009, 04:23 PM

Anyone got pics? I'm going to take some more

**jeepinbanditrider** · 12-12-2009, 06:57 PM

They released an update that made the shifting hand move when you shift. No one mentioned it not sure if anyone noticed.

**blackzx3_13** · 12-12-2009, 10:02 PM

Yep, and if the car has paddle shifters, you see the drivers hand move a little

**Tom95YJ** · 12-13-2009, 07:08 PM

**MoonieGT** · 12-13-2009, 08:50 PM

**jeepinbanditrider** · 12-13-2009, 09:21 PM
