FM4 Forza Motorsport Racing Association S1

[Jake Sanson]

Hey guys,

There appears to be very few racers on FM4 and it's the only game I can realistically play on RD, so I was wondering about starting up my own league, with several championships to race for under a new banner:

FMRA (Forza Motorsport Racing Association)

Regular race days (most likely on Friday nights) and it would be whoever wants to race whenever they wish to race.

Who would be up for it?

 

[Paulo Ribeiro]

A list would help. I'm always unsure! Coz I'm thick!

Yep, it's the only way to chose the right cars.
Might be better post a car list Jake.

 

[Wayne Thomas]

I've tried to work out list from the create a race option for online racing.

Ford Ka
Chevy Spark
Citroen C1
Mazda 2
Abarth 500?
Mitsubishi Colt
Nissan Micra

And others, please correct me as this is from memory!


..........

 

[Paulo Ribeiro]

Peugeot 107
Toyota Aygo to close the shop and have dinner

An easy way to find cars of a certain type is to use the list cars feature in the car select menu. It allows you to sort cars by their body style, among others

I'll be checking cars over the weekend for legality in the build-up to next Friday. Anybody wishing to compete should gift the car for scrutineering asap.

The only regs are 300bhp max, 2000 lbs minimum, FWD, real sponsors but NO real liveries, Forza wing and front splitter.

 

[Jake Sanson]

We'll move up through the ranks with each category of cars. Next one after this will be Economy, at Tsukuba's full length circuit.

[Wayne Thomas]

Sounding good Jake. Hope we get a few turning out for this.

 

[Wayne Thomas]

No problem gifting car build but you can set criteria and block non conforming cars in game set up. That said, at least you can warn someone early rather than them getting a nasty surprise on the night!

Haven't chosen my car yet, getting it done this weekend hopefully.

 

[Paulo Ribeiro]

What means 'real sponsors but NO real liveries'?
Does it means that I can use real sponsors, but not liveries that are or were used in real life?

 

[Ryan Sylvester]

Don't think il be racing in this, im on something of a racing sabbatical, hope it works out and the numbers come back..

May join later in the series once some higher spec cars are available

Thats exactly right. No Super Aguri or McLaren here, just your own team, and sadly your Civic is indeed not allowed. Sorry.

 

[Paulo Ribeiro]

Cheers Jake

 

[Paulo Ribeiro]

Peugeot 107 for me. I hope everything is fine now.

911 kg

Just for curiosity, all the vynils were made by me.

 

[Ryan Sylvester]

Quality designs as always Paulo

 

[Andrew Skinner]
