Just so people see it:

TONIGHT

To "celebrate" the release of the free Road America track, we're running some races tonight that are just for funsies. We'll run a variety of different classes and try and race most of the Road America circuit layouts.

We'll aim for around 9:15pm EST.

This track comes in a game update. Make sure you pop the game in and update before hand. If you want to join, go ahead and post in here so we know to invite you. Make sure you're following JMS (jms493) or I (Swarley133) on XBL.

Interesting wording in Turn 10's Facebook post:

The first track add-on for Forza Motorsport 5 has arrived

Certainly sounds like they plan on releasing more tracks in the future.

All of a sudden I'm really starting to miss Hockenheimring.

D-Class (anything) racing tonight, something everyone should be able to handle pretty well.

Come join us tonight at 9pm EST. Post in here or in the Apex thread if you'd like to race.

Also, for those of you who still have a 360 and Forza 4, I've set up a just-for-fun GT3 car race night for Wednesday.

Hardcore (check out race duration):

Multiplayer lobby they opened for this weekend only. Full simulation in P1's for the entire 12 hours. Need 6 drivers to be able to race. I'm not actually racing, I just wanted to see if what I'd heard was true.

As of today, players who have purchased DLC cars in Forza Motorsport 5 can add those cars to their Forza 5 garage immediately, at no additional in-game cost. And, moving forward, when you buy a Season Pass, a DLC car pack, or a single DLC car, you will be granted the one-time free addition of each car to your Forza 5 garage, without needing to purchase them with in-game credits or tokens. This goes for all current Forza Motorsport 5 DLC (including cars in previous DLC car packs) and it will be the case for all future Forza 5 DLC car packs. In addition, as requested by our fans, this most recent content update makes all of the initial 200 cars that launched with Forza 5 available as rental cars.

Oh, sweet. So they're doing what should've done all along?

Finally a car-pack that's got me thinking about getting the season pass. And finally one of the new generation Aussie V8 Supercars. Yum.

Just realized there's only one more car-pack left that's included in the season pass. Yeah, definitely not buying the season pass. There's maybe a handful of cars that I'd actually want. Just going to purchase a few single cars, definitely the 2013 Holden Commodore. GIVE ME SOME FUCKING RACE CARS. Seriously, where are the GT3 cars? Where are the DTM cars? Where are the other GT and touring cars? This is Forza MOTORSPORT, right?

Hopefully the non-season pass DLC packs start including some things that I actually want, and maybe some new content and not just rebuilt crap from FM4.

 

Just another reason why I'm excited for Project CARS. They focus on the motorsport aspect.

Bought the 2013 Holden Commodore a little bit ago and wrapped it with the Holden Racing Team 2014 livery.

I'll have to run some laps with it and my older Ford Falcon and see how they compare.
