A little off-topic but what is a decent, newbie (i.e. cheap) steering wheel/pedal setup to get? I'd like one that works for both PC and XB360.

Mad Catz stuff sucks though. Their controllers freeze up whe you hit the rapid button and their just horribly cheezy in material quality also.

I was a Champion 27 level on Forza 3. Pretty much got up to that level from Drifting only. I didn't like circuit racing on Forza 3 due to the dumbies driving like it's NASCAR. They can't keep it clean so they'd do anything to get to the finish line. Smashing into you etc.

Now on Forza 4 - on the USER CREATED RACES. It's much better than before. It seems like they race cleaner now.

Add me if you want to race or drift - Gamertag "RAINTRACKS"

Just a question. How are you getting your cars so low. Forza 4's drop factor isnt that much.

P.S. The club tag is VS, Just search it, and hopefully somboady can assist you in joining.

P.S.S. Got a Mac Mini. Ever since Steve Jobs died, OSX 10.4 Has gotten ALOT of updates...

MadAlley it's all in your settings really. Also there's a glitch on Forza 4 that makes your car slammed to the ground. Just youtube "Forza 4 lowering glitch" you'll see it there.

This one is the way it is due to my settings =)

Mind making me a co-leader on there as I'm on EVERY DAY. As I have no life. I would actually run a Meet on there at some point.
