The variable they use to show your rank online only goes frmo 0-255 since. I forget what kind of variable that is. 8 Bit perhaps? since at the time Forza 4 was released the highest driver level attainable was 150 that kind of variable was ok.
About six months frmo the release date they realised that players were ranking up much faster than they predicted so they removed the 150 level restriction. While your driver level offline will go all the way up to 999, the online variable will flip over every 256 levels.
It's a known bug but it's not going to be fixed since it does not break the gameplay.
this works as long as you don't get kicked for being a newbie before the race starts
And you probably get kicked anyway after the race if you've beaten them into oblivion
All the more reasons to race sanctioned and un-sanctioned 2O4F events only where you will not get kicked but do open yourself up for verbal abuse for just about any silly reason whatsoever.
I thought that was the whole reason for racing with the 2O4F group? What is racing without the verbal abuse? Not to mention the pushing and shoving in the races?

I think I'm bouncing around 315 or so ATM and it's definately not showing that. I'm sure some in here are waaaay beyond that.
