...and drove the 'ring in a Koenigsegg. And then in a Mustang GT.

OK, not really. But I did try out all three of those things on Forza Motorsport on the XBox last night.

Holy crap that's a cool freaking game. I've got to get an XBox.

That's funny because there was a co-driven GT3 at our autox today. For a second I thought maybe you were the co-driver :eeps:

I hear Forza Motorsport is a lot better than Gran Turismo 4.

Ask elbert.

I'm up for some team play, if you have room in the group. I miss the days of PGR2 online.

Any interest in setting up a league? I need to go out and buy the game, though.

I just went out last week and picked one up. Now if I could only figure out how to get the online part working :eeps:

I gave it a half assed attempt and got frustrated with the website and eventually gave up. Haven't bothered trying again yet....

Let me also say that, assuming that the physics engine in the game is anything close to accurate (and it feels pretty good, esp. compared to other games) the Koenigsegg is a MONSTER. Trying to negotiate the 'ring in an 'egg is like learning to fly using an F-18 and an aircraft carrier.

Also, you can do wicked donuts with it.

Heh.

Just run down to any one of a number of stores (Best Buy, Target, Walmart) and buy the startup kit (includes one year of access). Plop the disk in, and you're up and running.
