Holy shit, someone brought an Enzo AND a Carrera GT to the Forza track day!? (Yesterday.)

http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1274040

Yesterday was the Forza Motorsports (yes the XBOX game) lapping day at Pacific Raceways in Auburn, WA.
Unfortunately due to it beings finals week this week I was unable to participate even though I was invited...

All the vehicles you see in the pictures were used in the game for either sound bits or actual vehicle dimensions. My dad's supra was used for the sound bit on all modified supras in the game, which is pretty cool I guess.

The guy with the Enzo was driving at about 5/10ths and was still at pace with the rest of the sub-100k cars.

The Carrera GT only did a few real fast laps, and I must say, that car sounds UNBELIEVEABLE! Oh ya, it looks OK too

The rest of the cars, most of which are owned by Microsoft employees, weren't exactly pushed hard. For my dad this was his 9th (or so) lapping day at Pacific in the Supra.

There WILL be video up I promise! Give me a few days to get my stuff squared away, but for now pics will have to suffice!

Enjoy

Forza team and friends of the Forza team. They also invited all of the people who's cars were used in the game.

I saw that Enzo being driven up the 520 on the back of a truck. It caused a rubberneck traffic jam.

I myself masturbated vigorously as I tailed it for seven miles.

I wonder if kiki did a lap. She is actually a well acomplished racer in her own right.

I've seen many of those cars at the MGS parking lot. It is always funny when you see someone getting out of a $100k car, and they are wearing a 'Ship it' t-shirt from some video game, shorts, and flip flops.

Fapping McFappingtons... jesus christ.

Forza Foreverza.

the 520

the 520? What is this, California?

 

[marvelharvey]

Why is the BMW MCoupe there? It's not in Forza... although I bloody wanted it to be!

 

[golem]

the lack of bmw consumer models was odd.

Until you WA fucks start driving at more than 61 mph IN THE FAST LANE I will call it whatever I like.

;-)


Christ, and when you merge you're supposed to accelerate, not brake.

DLC....shhhhhhh

 

[Hyoushi]

DLC....shhhhhhh

Forza doesn't have DLC does it? I was a bit put off when I saw the feature greyed out on the featurelist on the cover...

 

[SantaC]

what's the criteria for owning an Enzo again? Long time ferrari owner + billionaire?

 

[AB 101]

Carrera GT>>>>>Ferrari Enzo IMO.

Don't know why you have to be such a Ferrari elitist (prior owner) to buy a Enzo.

If you have cash waving, then why the fuck not.

 

[rod furlong]

who had the balls to bring a Mustang to that thing? Fire that guy, I say. Even if it is a saleen. And that goes double for the Cadillac.

 

[AB 101]

Well, I see a Mitsubishi there. WTF??

 

[DarienA]

That picture is a reminder of how well off some of those MS employees are... good lord...

Oh whatever the CTS-V as oppose to the regular CTS has VERY nice performance #'s.

0-60 figures are quoted at 4.6-5.2(depending what mag you read).

Easily holds it's own against an M-5... and is about $20,000 cheaper to boot.

 

[Tarazet]

There's a Porsche 911 sitting alone in the parking lot behind them. :lol

Who needs that when you have the GT and an older 911 on the far right?

I would agree - if it was a '98. But it's a brand-new redesigned 2005 model. It's hard to distinguish from that distance, so I might be wrong, but I think that's what I'm seeing.

 

[PhatSaqs]

Good lord.....

 

[DCX]

Well yes, yes there is...but it's an Evo so all is well with the world.

DCX

 

[DarienA]

There are two there.. one is definitely an Evo... I'm wondering if the other is an MR(or whatever the designation is for that one... it's a less street than the Lancer and more racing oriented more barebones in terms of interior features and lighter as well IIRC....

There's just something about this image that's hilarious to me. Enzo parked next to a CompUSA truck.

 

[AB 101]

Do you think Mitsubishi and Subaru could take the great performance of the Evo and WRX and put it into a bodystyle that doesn't look like shit?

He sold his car so it's most likely the person who bought it.
