5.  The career grind continues, but i've lost my will to fight it.  Money isn't an issue, even though i'm back down under a mil again,  it's just that the later races are so damn long AND difficult on hard difficulty.  I tried having a good clean first two laps of 7 on the Porsche R3 endurance race the other night and I kept on getting taken out either while passing or while being passed.  I never had a problem with the AI before but in these Porsches every little conacts effects are simply amplified too much.  And don't get me started on the factory races,...sheesh.  You have to be flawless, lucky, AND perfect all at the same time to win these on hard.  I have officially given up, in the name of fun, my AI drivers have now assumed the responsibility of finishing my last few races.  I'm at level 44 now, but my online career and car leveling offline can take take care of my driver level leveling from now on.  I'm a tuner, I know my place. :)

Updates......

1.  AWD settings have been revamped again.  Use 1.3f/1.1r multipliers and a new 5% weight transfer calc.  I won't be changing V2 for this,....i'll just release this in V3.

2.  I don't have very many number requests at all, so aside from 13, and 9 being spoken for all the other numbers are open.  I need EVERYONE to resubmit their number preferences asap, before the cars go out.  Here are the names so far:

qbix, croisened, carn, shemwhistler, xxxdsmer, cyan, amjranaud, critical devil, aurien, iammatt00, redshirt1701, blooze, kaedo, wickedneq, danrules, and shinysideup! 

Nope, i'm all set, the cars are done.  I'm just sorting out the numbers.

Only a few have you have requested numbers so i'm just going to pre-assign whats left and let it sit for a day or so to make sure we're all good.  Here's the list:

qbix 09
croisened 02
carn 05
shemwhistler 13
xxxdsmer 08
cyan 12
amjranaud 06
critical devil 10
aurien 03
iammatt00 01
redshirt1701 17
blooze 07
kaedo 11
wickedneq 15
danrules 14
dirtdriver 20
shinysideup! 04
bigmooingcow 18

Remaining cars are 16 and 19.

Bigmooingcow and Dirtdriver have contributed some really good racing tips recently and they are well know on the forum as is, so Ii've added them to the list.

I still need two more worthy people to be voted in for the last two cars, but it can wait for now.

Again, i'll let this sit for a day or two to iron any number discrepancies out, and if all goes well, i'll gift these out on wednesday or thursday.  They are taking up alot of space in my favorites list! :)

Number 10 is good for me and am looking forward to test the car.

Thank you for your hard work on this and i will update my calculator with v3 when it is finished.

I've created a Flash-based tool Forza Tuning Guide based on Feurerdog's calculations.

Awesome job on all of this man when do you think you will have V3 out?

In  another thread in this racing forum, we are doing an A-class GT40 challenge on the Nissan Oval.

I manged to run a 38 second hotlap with unmodified V3 settings.

Trust me guys, V3 works.  I was doing some Porsche testing last night and i've confirmed that the RR and RA settings work well with more than one of that car type.  Final testing continues tonight with FA, and MR  car types.  I'll punch a few of my personal FA and FF cars through the calcs to finish things up and then the V3 post will be spelled checked and number checked for release. 

It should be done this weekend.

I need friend requests from Blooze, Dirtdriver, Gooseman, Babyblu, and a few others still but i'll send them PM's to get that sorted out.

I'll send the FR right now... You may have to save Dirt's for a little bit - he isn't on line yet.

Sorry I'm a late comer to the forum,

I just set my  A849 evo 9 and my U class V12 Vanquish up using ShemWhistlers spreadsheet. I chose these 2 cars because they are opposites, my evo was good any way but your setup definitely improved it, my Vanquish on the other hand was an absolute pig I had to short shift while driving it just to keep it on the track, now its awesome I will race it against some of my friends and they will be gutted when i pwn the jacksies off of them . Thank you sooooo much this will definitely help me beat the game, I don't think even this will make me win much online though I'm just not good enough
