More Forza 3 fun

All of the cars I've bought or used so far in Forza 3 are just ones that I like in real life, so I'm mostly using whatever among them will be good enough to win offline races. Once I get all of the career stuff done, then I'll finally go back and start tuning up some strong cars and focusing on a couple classes.

This evening, though, I thought I'd do something useful with my GTI and put it in the C class world championship I'm rolling through. Going through the upgrades, I saw that you can add AWD now, so I thought I'd try that out for kicks on top of all of the usual stuff. In Forza 2 the car had mild understeer and I figured AWD would only worsen that, so for my first shot-in-the-dark tune I tried to put in plenty of anti-understeer settings. Well, my first test drive was in a race, and what I ended up with is an oversteering, traction rolling, high-flying wacko of a car! Soooooo much silly fun though!

For Le Sarthe and New York I threw together this hide-the-women-and-children beast and did my first artsy photo:

 
Completely unedited, straight out of the game. That car has way more rubber than it should for a straight-line specialist though and has tons of grip. I'll surely take some of that away and give it to speed. I'm just so glad they put that hood in the game!
 
Again, full-sized photos are in my Forza 3 photo gallery.
