Those are both in the rally section, but Tsukuba Wet gets added to World Circuits eventually and I think Chamonix is also in the Dirty & Snow section.

I wish they had more classic US stuff.

70-73 Trans am or Formula.
61-64 SS 409 impalla.

68 or 69 GTO or 69 Judge

Old 442 any year.

70 AAR cuda

68 GT500 KR

67 SS/RS 396 Camaro

and so many more.

Heck even a shoe box Chevy would be cool.

There's quite enough live axle road whales already.

I think the game is aimed more at Road & Track types than Motor Trend readers.

Bah!

They packed in every honda and Nissain ever made. They need more GOOD cars!

Live axles rock!:D

Dropping just one bike in the game woulda been fun.

Superbike I MEAN 1843 Indian woulda been cool to spurt against the faster road cars and some of the [R] cars.

Bleh... I've been waiting for an 87-93 Mustang GT since GT2...

I'd have liked to see more American stuff too, but I think it is more of a "ricer" game. That is cool, they still have some American stuff, and Porsches, which are my second favorite car.

One curious thing I was wondering if someone could explain. I bought a '00 Mustang Cobra... and AFTER all the HP add-ons it could only get to ~550 HP. I then went to put a supercharger on it, except the HP before was like 3 hp higher than the HP "after".... so whats the deal?

How can putting a supercharger on the car DROP the horsepower? That doesn't make any sense to me.

The only reasion I am going to buy Forza is because of Road Atlanta being one of the tracks. I am good friends with Jim Downing of Downing Atlanta racing and whenever they rent the track out for the day to test one of there car you bet your bellybutton you can find me out there in my Mustang running the track to. I love that track. It is a blast to scream out there holding the turns...it is up there with sex... well maybe not.. but a close second.

Putting on a supercharger removes any NA Tuning mods you put on your car. Also I've noticed that some mods match up better & make more power. On several of my cars the racing exhaust makes less power than the sports exhaust. Depends on the level of tuning.

Just a quick power note for those who may not know... when you buy a new car (or used one with 6.2miles on it) go straight to GT Auto and change the oil before you put it on any track. This will give you a 5% boost in your horsepower. You can tune/mod the car and then go change the oil and still get the boost, but once you put the car on a track you lose the opportunity.

You also gain more power over time as the engine breaks in. The Zonda C12S 7.3 that I'm so fond of started with 547hp. After stage 3 NA tune and the rest of the bells & whistles, it was up to around 950. After a couple trips down the Mulsanne Straight & some laps on the Nurburgring, and no oil changes, it's pushing 984hp and still climbing.

I haven't come across that. I'll have to look start watching for it. But an Evo VIII I modded out seems to have lost about 30 horses since I finished it and started racing it.
