Yes ProAM is open to all. Send my gt x2O4FxProAM - gt a fr and I'll send you the build. You can 'tune' anything just keep the build the same.

I'm quite late in the request, but I'd like to give this a shot as well - sent you a FR, Surf.  I'm not a noob to Forza, but am to 2O4F.

That was super fun.  If I could keep from, well, crashing, I might make more of a sport out of it, but I'm hoping my circuit racing chops will improve.  I could really use a course on passing, and techniques not to follow the guy in front of you into the wall because you're so intent on his rear fender.  79

 

Thanks again - this community seems to be just what I was looking for.

I'm always happy to have a racing school session with you Dawg. I'm available after 3pm central through the week or pretty much anytime on weekends. Just let me know when you'd like to get together & we'll make it happen.

Yeah, I think we're all working on that one a bit. Was hilarious in the Tuesday race with ElKochino we pretty much would all follow the guy in front into the wall, all believing that maybe he's got the right line.

Last night's race was awesome! I got too brave and "Too f*cking fast" group got me! I really really shouldn't do that again! Not till I'm faster than Jimmy anyways. Congrats Moto, and great job holding down the fort Surf!

Thanks for filling in Surf, you did a great job of running the room.  ProAM is a blast!  Big thanks to everyone showing up and making it so much fun.

Thanks Stewie !!  Gald you had a good time dawgbite !!  We have all had a learning curve after joining 2O4F.  The more you run with all of us the faster the learning curve.  

 

Thanks to all that raced last night.  Was a good group of racers.  After a few cautions things settled down.  Looked like there were many battles.  Final lap times were very close.

 

Pretty sure MotoGP ran away and hid.  Congrats to him on another win !!   I had a great time battling with many of you as I dropped down the field...haha.

 Great cars, Great track, Great racers equal Great time !!!  Thanks again guys !!!!

I used to run in lobbies and with my friends but there was never this level of competition... it's great !!

 

Clean with some rubbing

 

Too bad I couldn't keep up with Moto and that damn Jimmy caught me and passed on lap 13, no podium for me .

The handicap system is great,  giving slower guys like myself a chance to run with the faster guys for a few laps.  I started first,  but through hard work I was able to fall to 3rd,  went from 3rd to 4th a few times,  the last lap I went from 3rd to 5th.  Thanks to the handicap system,  made all that fun racing possible. Of course without it and hardwork, I would have made my way to the back of the pack.  Thanks Surf and Insanerc for the car, looking forward to next week.

Hey Garry,

  Please send me the unlocked tune if you can ? 

      I'm pretty sure the "locked tune " was why I was getting lapped last week  :P       Actually, I was really really rust. Wow. Bad.

 

I plan to race this Thursday and have a friend who also wants to join. Not sure his sign in on 204F.

I will as him (Andy/ SBR Papgen) to send you an invite request.

 

Thanks,

 Gonzalo

Great race Thursday night guys.  A tonne 'o fun!!  Good race Moto.  One more lap and you would have been by.  Thanks for the good sportsmanship you showed on that last chicane.

 

See y'all in 2 weeks.  I'll be in Raleigh next week for work.

Well guys it makes me sad but I am not able to continue with the ProAM Series. I have too much on my plate right now and the time the series runs is difficult at best for me. If anyone wants to continue with the series you have my blessings. All you need for this month is someone to host as races are already posted.

 

Again I apologize but real life is taking over.

 

I'll still be around from time to time, most likely real  late at night.

Garry, I know exactly how you feel, I too,have been gone for awhile. I miss the races, the friendly generous people, and the great laughs.I hope to get back into this series...Be it first or last, no matter how you finish, it's such an awsome group of guys in this clan that it makes it hard to stay away! My r/l also took over but I hope to catch up with everything I left behind.

Sorry to hear r/l is pulling you away Garry.  I'll cover the rest of the Lotus races.  I'll think about continuing the series in the future.  With Horizon out and a bunch of new games coming out for the holidays it appears that F4 play is fading.  At least on my f/l the activity has increased but not in F4.  I'll keep an eye on turnout and make a call before the end of the Lotus series. 

Thanks !! Garry for all you've done to keep this series alive and thriving.  This series continues to be a gateway to racing in 2O4F.  A perfect series to improve novices skills and for the aliens to be teachers.  I know how much work you've done and I appreciate how much fun you've kept in the series.  Hope you'll be able to make some of the races.  

You are one of the first people I met here at 2O4F and I'm happy we've become friends.  Altho it's been awhile...we've had some "Real" conversations and discussions while we've run laps together testing cars and just having fun.  I appreciate the freindship we've developed and hope to see it continue.  I hope r/l gives you a break and we can run some laps again in the future.  Maybe you'll even talk me into trying Horizon : )    Wish only the best for you my friend !
