I would be interested but I just hate the fact that you have to use the stupid clutch to get top 100 times. I have some top 200 times without the clutch but once I realized why I couldn't match top times I gave up. In FM3 the clutch did not make you faster. I have tried using the clutch but it is uncomfortable and just one extra thing to think about as I am trying to brake as late as possible and downshift at the same time. I have all other assists off, those I am ok with.

Sorry for the rant but I had my hoped up for FM4 and I won't play just because of this stupid clutch shit.

hehe well in the league none of us use clutch. I do agree with you. I can only use clutch if its A class cars or lower.

Have you tried changing the buttons? I switched the clutch with the e-brake button, so now when I shift I just have to press a and X or a and Y. I can press both buttons with my thumbs so i don't have to do anything extra.

the one thing I can't get no matter what is the abs off. i always mash the brakes too hard.

I think I'm the only one using a wheel and clutch during the league. However, non of us are top 100.....were good but most of us have lives not dedicated to leaderboard times. I don't find the clutch making my times any faster, but I'm on a Fanatec wheel, might be different on a controller.

Malaka, if you have the time to spare, you should join. All the races are very competive and very fun, plus there's prizes at the end

I think you have to send the invite, but I may be wrong. The club tag is "1M" for the 1addicts. There are several other users on here in different clubs.

Do the [1M] members know who are our club leaders currently? I don't see too many people online when I get on looking under the club. Many have had the same driver level when looking several weeks later.

Microsoft's Turn 10 Studios and Electronic Arts have finally buried the hatchet to give car guys the Porsches they want to drive in Forza Motorsport 4.

Available this Spring, they'll drop the Porsche Expansion Pack for "Forza Motorsport 4" that will contain 30 modern and classic Porsche vehicles from the German manufacturer, seven of which are new to the "Forza" franchise.

Curious to hear more about this new Forza Horizons. Is it going to be like the old Dub/NFS games where you drive around looking for someone to street race? Seems like they want to appeal to the masses instead of racing enthusiast with this one.

Hey guys FYI,

I changed my gamer tag from Willizzo to SyndicateGT So it's not some creepy guy stalking you and trying to beat all your rival times.

yea, several factors: free time dropped , wheel broke so can only use it in automatic (which = SLOW as you know) & didnt replace it yet,
and son #1 jacked my xbox a couple months ago cause his broke and now its on the verge of death itself and I really dont think I'm going to buy another one for myself until my kids are gone. with kids nothing is "yours", it gets old.
...kids lol, not so much, ages 20 and 16.

hope to rejoin eventually. I intend to anyway.

Hope to have you back soon....Porsche pack comes out in May! We also really miss you for the Spring seaons.....it's just not the same anymore.

Thanks for the video Kirby! I think I might slap some drag tires on that Merc, I hope it dumps it down to a S700 car

Sorry Kirby, I just didn't like the new Jag as much as you did. It feels very heavy, my F10 M5 has a lighter feel than this one. Speaking of M5's, the new 1995 in this pack is sweet too! It's going to own some records in C325 at the Ring.
