skol, how'd you get the GNX to hook so good? Do the wide tires in the back actually make a difference in this game? The first 2 forzas showed it having wide tires, but it didnt grip any better

In the PI there is a Launch index. Wider tires and suspension increase the Launch Index. Did you not notice?

yes get the launch index as good as u can and mess with the suspension. and Ive found out every car has a diff launch rpm best for the leaving on cant just rev it.
actualy it doesnt hook worth a ****, have to slowly gas it till the traction control kicks in then go, with no TC anything with some horsepower isnt going anywhere. worst downfall in this game is the traction issues, should be able to hook a little better than what it is.. not even worth the time messin with 2wds hardly, think im gonna focus on awds from now on.

also in that pic i adjusted the suspension to do that mostly just to take the pic, actualy doesnt do any better than the real setup i have for it, but makes for a good pic

also dont know if you guys have noticed on some cars you can make a drivetrain swap 2wd>awd or awd>2wd. cant do it on all which sucks but some that ive noticed or seen are challenger, gt500, supra, focus, and couple more i cant think of u can make awd.. but cant do it to all cars just select ones which is f'd up.

I don't like the damn race intro mode where the camera jumps around with the car reving during the count down. So then you're left with 1.5 seconds to get the rpm where you want for the start

Played for a couple of hours last night. I was able to buy a Trans Am. Can't get it to hook for ****.

Where is the actual drag racing anyways. I went to the track and ran the quarter mile but it was green as soon as I jumped in there, no staging almost like it was testing.
