We could just play Forza 2 some more. Other than its terrible {terrible} interface, it was just as enjoyable as GT4.

Real question: Do people here even LIKE racing games? There's rarely (read: never), threads on these things. And if there are, the reply count is so low. It's too bad.

Only a few people here seem to even play racing games, and I really doubt more than three or four people on the board would have any interest in discussing car tunings. And of those three or four, I would probably be the only one interested in discussing car tuning within the context of self-handicapping your car as we did in Forza 2 when we only raced S rank cars. S rank only. No collisions. Maple Valley.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Maybe no one makes threads on racing games because it always devolves into bullshit arguing. Or maybe it is just a Gran Turismo thing.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

There are a couple of muscle cars I always enjoy driving, like the '69 Camaro, but my main problem with them is that they are rarely competitive outside of the muscle car competitions. Or maybe I should say that they are not as competitive as the lightweight Jap cars, as you implied. Yeah, they can keep most of those muscle cars, if I wanted to drive something that handled like a pontoon boat, I would go to the river.

I'd like to see the Carbon R Skyline from GT4 make an appearance on this game {or on GT5} though. That was easily my favorite tuner car from that game and was really one of the most fun and most competitive non-racing Jap cars from that game. I'm also hoping that they do not include nitrous boost this time around. That turned races into jokes more often than not.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
