[FM4] Sunday Night Racing - gauging interest

I am going to start racing FM4 on Sundays again. I'd like to know what type of series/racing people are interested in. We can run any of the following:

Spec Miatas ( Gen 1 MX5 way down in E class on the small tracks)

Multi Class - 2004 Mustang GT in A class with Toyota MR-S in C class

Vintage Sports cars in A class

Vintage Touring Cars in C class

Mini Challenge (FWD) - C class

Golden era DTM cars ( BMW M3 vs MB E190 vs Ford RS500)

Oval races in the 1940 Ford with a Mustang Engine transplant

Beer Run cars on Ovals (work that draft, baby!)

... I may have some other stuff as well.

 

We can do some shake down races for a few weeks before we decide on something. Please post if you're interested and want to race.  I'm having connection issues but I will sort them out this weekend and be ready when I know people are into it.

There seems to be plenty that have Forza 5 especially more so on the NA side, nobody wants to play multiplayer these days.

Sorry, I thought I had quoted the FM5 post you had earlier. Swapping back to the GT2 wheel on my wheel stand is a pain. I haven't been on FM4 this year. I'll catch you sometime on FM5.

Sorry about the confusion. It ended up being just Thane and I. Then I had connection issues because the 360 is hooked via wifi. 

Still had fun. Great couple of races with Thane. Sorry buddy, my connection sucks via wifi.

As far as FM5, I need to get my pedal situation sorted out. Fanatec support has been weak. I just can't use the stock TX pedals very well.

Snappy, I agree, the stock TX pedals are weak (although far superior to my original MS pedals).  

Didn't you get the adapter from Basher?

I got in on his first batch in Feb for under $50 shipped and my Club Sports are working great with the TX wheel.

In fact, I feel the TX wheel w/ the club sport pedals is a better setup than my old GT2 wheel,

(and I loved my old wheel until I picked up the TX).  IMO, the TX has a much stronger FFB but still

feels smoother.

I'm waiting until we get a wheel for the Xbox One before I do any online racing with FM5.
