Viper Cup - Abu Dhabi Race Discussion

How did your qualifying and races pan out?

1st race couldn't have gone better. Second race I was minding my own business into the 3rd sector when I was unceremoniously rear-ended out of contention. Chalk and cheese races.

Pretty much the same here, except opposite races to you. race 1 WAS going ok, think I was either 5th or 6th, and got caught in an incident between 2 other cars coming to the end of the 2nd straight while minding my own business. Ended up losing quite a few places.

2nd race went better, no idea what was happening behind. I was waiting for everyone to catch up to me in 3rd but no one came. I seen Chrisupra in my mirrors, catching...then...gone    Was trying seriously hard to overtake for 2nd but couldn't get close enough to make a safe move. Chalk and cheese?..absolutely!!   

I must say though, my opinion, best forza 5 series I've raced in so far and most of the time, race standards have been great.

not sure if anyone else had this but in race one my car had a different tune to the one i loaded onto it, weird enough but then after loading it up for race 2 yet again i had a different tune to the one i loaded up, stayed on after for a few laps trying to load tunes but each time it loaded a random tune, had to shut down the xbox and re-start to make it work proper, not sure what was going on, that said i still would have finished near the back,lol

Another POV vid from race 2.

Race 1 was great! Race 2 was Great! until I spun out and lost 3 spots from 4th with less than 3 laps left....damn kerbs

Well me think it amazing. Problems in test session (lag) Problems in Meet 1 (lag) Meet 2 get laps in but not competitive. Meet 3 half time before race 2. Penny drops (hurts head). Listening to chat between races as he goes through check list. Abs off Auto off, What did he just say? ABS OFF. Yep a very crucial bit of information that I hadn't read before. Check rules and there it is ABS OFF. Maybe it wasn't lag at all? Suddenly it all makes sense as to why I couldn't steer. Relearning how to drive this way for the rest of the week so maybe I might get a faster lap in this week.
