I don't think I'm ever likely to catch up, I'm aiming more for a time. If I get to 37'30" then I'll be happy. I might then revise my target :) If I do a half decent to on the 'ring then my target time will definitely be adjusted :D

I just had a crack at the Ring, that was where I gained the extra 12seconds or so. My first time was the starting lap, this time I used the 2nd lap and so used the extra speed at the start.

can someone post my record up please as i cant get on that site at work...

tag "crimson killa 5"

not that i know what these times represent mind!




i did the ring with over 10 sec to spare :D
oh and i havent done the others just went straight to that one lol

what also bugs me is the one model one make round with the porsche 914 .. :s cant win that one!


Those ones arent that bad,

the way to do it is with braking line on (if its not already) you will notice the oponents will always brake at the red section but you can brake a second or 2 later. i won that one with a lead of about 20seconds on my first go!

Its all about under breaking

Well, Mr. CocoPops, there seem to be a few tracks where I'm quicker than you...

Maple Valley
Maple Valley Short
Nissan Speedway
Sunset Infield Short
TT Boomslang

Not for long I guess, now that I've pointed them out :rolleyes:


can someone post my record up please as i cant get on that site at work...

210,386th place :blink: out of 212,492 :lol:
12h 07m 04s

I think you get a time of 30 minutes for any track that you haven't completed. That would suggest that you have only got a time for one track (the 'ring?)...just 24 to go then thumbsup

Don't worry about it. Some people can't do time trials, they just aren't fast enough.

I mean, who's ever heard of finding the fastest driver around a track? That's not the sort of thing that would ever happen in real life, and certainly wouldn't be used for, say, determining grid position. That would be ridiculous :rolleyes:

Yes, we will. That's the good thing about the online leaderboards :D

I was trying to see how well you've done on the tracks you've actually raced but the Forza website seems to be down :(

That scorebored sucks, if you haven't done them all then you just end up looking like a complete no-hoper that never gets out of second gear! It's so shameful that I'm going to have to do all the time trials now.. :sleepy: What car is the Nordschleife trial in?
