There's a full car list kicking around here somewhere. I think there was a 1G, but I am positive there is a 95 TSi and 98 TSi.

My machine is modded Ian. Microsoft started to bann machines on May 17th when the Halo 3 Beta was released.
Freaky thing is, if you remember you were able to dowload the Halo 3 beta through Crackdown, which is why Microsoft called it just that. People that bought that game illegally like myself got screwed as it gave Microsoft an indication of which 360's were modded by playing this stupid game.
Oh well, now I'll have two. One modded one not.
Damn Bill Gates.

I tried to find a copy but 3 places had it sold out already. Looks like it's popular.

TalonBlade is my tag.
Mike, that tag doesn't exist apparently.

Played it online last night. I was really impressed. There were no aparant lag issues. You can talk to everyone in the race with the headset. You can also race your own modified vehicles. My Talon was kicking some Lamborghini and Porsche butt on the long and short tracks .

My copy looks totally amazing on my shelf, along with my wireless wheel, and newly acquired 360.
At&t decided to arbitrarly disconnect my DSL service, so I cannot connect to Xbox live to get the updates I need.
Then when I went to go play Forza, it said I needed an update to play the game, and since I can't connect, I can't play the damn game......nice. At least with a PSP you get updates included WITH the game.........oh no! not Xbox! you HAVE to have internet connection......lame.
I have my gamer tag set as TURBO4G63, so as soon as I get reconnected I will try to look you guys up. (I don't know if that name will be available for me to use, since I haven't been able to connect since hooking up the 360)
I want an RS4.

That is stupid. I've never had that happen before. All the other games work just fine without upgrades if you are not connected. When there is a detected upgrade you have to upgrade it to play it if you are connected though.
That doesn't sound right man. Xbox can't assume all 360 players are on Live.
BTW if anyone here is trying to play with me make sure to send a friend invite to me as I do not accept game invites by gamer tags I don't know.

That's odd and kind of lame Dan. I did notice the minute I put the game in it ran an update. I just shook my head and laughed at another Microsoft patch that I've become so used to.

My gamer tag is VapedTalon. I as much of my time painting my cars as I do racing them lol. I have my Eclipse that I spent a whole 15 minutes on. The car is a bloody beast with 695 hp. I also have my time attack C class Lotus Elise 135R. I want to build my Talon's paintjob around this image. I'm sving it for tommarow because it will probably take me an hour or two just to make the logo.

What? The Eclipse can get almost 200hp more than the Talon? That's a bunch of crap Maybe I'll have to ditch my maxed Talon for an Eclipse. Are there any other differences like handling when both are maxed? Btw, the Porsche 914 is an insane beast when maxed out. I kept avoiding it because it only had 125hp to start with until I had to use it for some races. Being able to swap an engine in for an instant 300hp and then putting on other upgrades to get to 700hp on 2000lb makes it quite a different car It's very hard to drive.

Yeah the Eclipse has the "4g63T Drivetrain" swap available lol. I'm not sure what is with turn 10 but they should have labeled it the Evo 4G63T. Besides that point why does the Evo platform offer a higer max hp . I mean the blocks are basicly the same and if you are replacing everything on the motor shouldn't they be basicly the same?

I've moved on from the Talon. I'm loving my 960hp skyline atm. It's great fun. I hit over 220mph on the Nissan Speedway last night.

I've still got the Talon. But my skyline destroys anything I face.

Dan, Judas Priest's 'Turbo Lover' was voted the best Driving Song of all time on Top Gear. Just because you don't have any taste in music... I liked most of the songs on the GT soundtracks.

I concur Noah, A skyline would decimate all. However, I will make the ultimate Evo and vaporize everyone. I just earned an EVO that I'm thinking about maxing out. Maybe I'll do that tonight.

I might have to buy a wheel too. I was playing online last night on some crazy Nuremberg track and there was no hope for me. It was three miles long and no straight aways. I got destroyed.

Maybe I haven't been using the newer stuff, but I always found I did worse with a wheel and pedals. I want to use the wheel like 'normal', but the software still isn't up to the task, nor does it quite give you the feedback you need. Feels like driving our old '78 Buick land yacht with 'no feel' power steering.
