So what time would you guys want the event to be at? I'd prefer it to be around 8pm-10pm UTC on Friday or Saturday (not any specific Friday or Saturday YET) but I can move things around if that doesn't work for other people's schedules or it clashes with other events Also I want to know how you want to handle the way the cars are set up. There's 3 options as I see it - Set a PI limit and you can just do whatever you want within that limit
- Give you upgrades to put on your car but you can adjust the tune setup as much as you want
- Lock both the upgrades and the tune so everyone's in 100% identical cars
I'd rather not touch option 1 with a 10 foot pole because of how broken Horizon 3's PI system is. Option 2 I like in theory but downforce settings worry me a little. Option 3 is all well and good in theory but no car drives to everyone's tastes

Fridays or Saturdays would work for me at the UTC times you mention. Welcome playlist is usually done by 4- 4.30pm UTC. 8pm UTC is 5am for me,, just so you guys know.
Id say option 2 would be best in regards to cars being somewhat identical. Then we can tune to our driving styles.
Also,,just for those that maybe dont know,,there is a Forza channel on teamspeak in "other games" section.

Fridays during the mid season break of SAGTC would be best for me, so..... 9 December to 30 December. 9 PM UTC or later would be swell.

We should get a random tune from the Upgrade show and use this for everyone. Does that even work?

This sounds like fun, count me in! Blade died for our sins why would the downforce be a problem? Aren't everyone supposed to be in the same car, or was it just the same make? You can always pick tracks that favor different setups and let people tune as much as they want before the event but nothing during.

If this is going to be a "balancing" act like SATCC etc,, then its gonna take the fun out of it.
Just tell us what car make and model,, and then we race for fun and laughs.

You see if this was Forza Motorsport 6 I'd just give a class and say build the car up for that class but Horizon 3 just favours straight line speed so much that everything that isn't running a million horsepower on stock tires gets left in the dust. This creates a problem because racing near-uncontrollable cars just isn't as fun as racing cars with lots of grip. In future most of these things (if I do more of them) will just be racing the cars stock but the whole point of using the Alfa 155 is the DTM bodykit and it would feel wrong to have that bodykit on a car with less than 200hp

Well I mean you can always figure out limitations like: It needs to be an A-Class car and use Race Tires or what not. Or like Pezby said,lets just race

I actually think the bigger issue will be keeping everybody connected in same lobby.
I have never been able to stay in a game with more than 1 friend for very long. Im not saying its an issue at my end,, just a game issue in general.
How has it been for you guys ?

Who would be interested in a one-make series (by that I mean a few medium-length races on a Saturday afternoon ) featuring these? Yes, that is a Taco Bomb Alfa 155. I'm just posting this here to gauge interest and if there's enough I might host such an event Only if i can bring my RWD Centenario. kk

Was good getting in with @pezby and andyb3e last night. I had a couple of connection issues after plugging my mic in but I think we hardly ever crashed out. If we are arranging something then I can't really do Friday/Saturday night unless in the afternoon. Mondays and Thursday are my best days for doing anything. I am also on pretty much every day at some point. Just add me if you fancy some races together. Gamertag is JohnE82
