I'll have to try them out and see which one I like better. Believe it or not the only one I've ever driven in FM2 is the Tommy Kaira M20B. Now Gran Turismo is a completely different story! That's why I've kinda stayed away this time.

Yeah, it was a lot of fun. Too bad it took me a few laps to get used to the car, I was turning out similar lap times at the end, but you were long gone by then. After we ran that race, I tuned the car to 700 and ran a few laps at Black Mamba... next week should be fun.

huh? it's like your trying to say something. but i'm not sure what it is.

i haven't even tried driving this thing yet. i just made the paint job to match up with my evo 9s mitsubishi A6M zero paint job.

but if you've driven one front engined awd car in this game...you've driven them all.

i dont buy that. The old evos feel differnt form the new ones which feel WAY differnt from the 22b with feels nothing like the newer Imprezas with then feel nothing like a GT-R. I will say they don't simulate the diffeerent systems very well though. Subarus with mechanical diffs feel differnt than Mitsu's with AYC in GT4. And dont even start with the Skylines.

Yeah...I tried to go all 'Internet savvy grammar' on you guys and it didn't work so well.

What I meant to say is that I drove the **** out of every AWD Scooby, Evo, and FTO while playing the various GT games. I drove them so much, in fact, that I grew tired of them and decided to try some other things out in FM2.

Better?

The pictures in this thread make me wish I had Forza 2 and a 360 sometimes. I was addicted to it when my buddy bought it, and after I would finish work I'd call him up and spend most nights chillin' in his basement taking over his T.V.

Scott,

Am I to assume you are running the Evo since you were laying down the law with your 1:49.5 on Black Mamba?

Just curious, the same car must be used on all three races? No 22b, Evo, 22b? Or three different 22b's built differently for each track, etc. Just wanted to clarify.

Better check again.

Probably going to be the Evo, yes. I will practice up with the 22B as well but the Evo just felt better to me intially so I went with it.

If we end up with more than half driving Evi(?) I'll go back to the 22B.

We have previously used an honor system where the same car must be used on all the tracks. The only differences are done via the tuning process, not by replacing particular parts or upgrades.

The truth is that you could build three cars with identical paintwork and no one would know that you switched a 'handling' car for a 'horsepower' car.

Most of us here would probably figure it out though. If someone was killing us in the corners on race 1 then left us on the back straight at the Ring...I'm pretty sure we'd know.

Wow, nice 22b. I'm new to Forza 2, I have 2 Evos, 2 22bs, and some fairly decent class D and C cars. (D400 Honda Civic Si is great for D class racing) I can't paint worth a damn, but just thought I'd drop by and say hi. I work Wednesday nights, but I'm on after work in case you guys are still around.

That's correct. It's under the options in the paint editor, just use the import image option.
