So I'm not quite new but haven't been around in quite a while. (I believe the last race with anyone from here was early in FM4) Anyway, my name is Jerry and I currently hail from a hole in the wall town in Indiana. I have been a gear head since as long as i can remember. My GT is Sikotic demon Anyone looking for some races on horizon2 or 5 look me up.

Hello!  I'm new here. My name is Anthony Castillo, I'm 30 years old from Chicagoland. I'm a liquid tank truck driver by day and many other things by night. My hobbies include modifying my car (currently a 2013 Focus ST) and autocrossing it. I've recently taken up ECU calibration, so thats been a big time sink for myself. I enjoy some firearms, and going for coffee or food with friends as well. You can find me on Forza Motorsport 6 and Destiny as well.  XBox gamertag: Boosted STIG

Hello everyone. I am not exactly new here (joined almost 6 years ago), but have been gone for a very long time. I hope it is ok to stop back in. I decided to get back into Forza with both feet. I preordered the forza bundle xbox one and hope to see many old and new faces on the track. I had stopped gaming for quite some time with family and health issues taking most of my time and have truly missed the camaraderie and community here. I hope if I get the chance to race with any of you I will not embarrass myself too badly.

If you embarrass easily, this might not be the place  for you, OR this might JUST be the place for you!

Seriously, no one important will SEE anything, so just go with it.

Fun first, the skill and speed will happen without even noticing ...

Gizzie, It has been a Loooonnnnngggg time. I am having an issue recovering my old gamertag so my new for now gamertag is Silktiedevil. I look forward to you kicking my ass while I get my legs back under me. I am struggling to get top 1% on tracks now when I could get a few top 100 times in the old days. Age has caught up!! Also racing with a controller now while waiting for my Obutto to be shipped.

Hello everyone.   I'm Pikester1962.   What should I say?  I am an IR and Forza 5 & 6 driver with a wheel.  Ok,  I've had the wheel for 2 days!  Well,  I'm going to go surf the Forums and see what's happening.

Have a great day!

Parcells, Love the warm welcome back. I am looking forward to running a few laps with you and the rest of the guys. The good news is I just got the confirmation of my Obutto R3volution shipping and it should be here by monday. The bad news is my wheel, Pedals and Shifter won't be here until the third week of October :(

Pikester, All of the guys here are great and you could not find a better group to race with.

Hi All. I'm back after a long absence. This was a costly year for racing in real life, so I've decided to kick back and relax in the much more affordable virtual world for a while, and resume some old rivalries. :)

Welcome back Ultivek.

Some of us had a very costly year in the virtual World too...2 new consoles + entertainment unit to house them and a new wheel added up to an embarrassing amount of dough to spend on "gaming" but when I correctly name it a "hobby" it takes some of the financial pain away.

Hi, all!

I go by Lothe here, my gamertag is SuperiorRain835.

I picked up Forza 6 when it came out, but this is my first sim racing game, so everything is new to me. I've been improving, but sometimes still struggle not to trade paint or run off the track. Racing cleanly and civilly is my goal, though! I'm located in US Central Time and when I'm around, it's usually either the midafternoon or evening-ish. Anyone around thenabouts, feel free to give me a shout.

Hello all,

I go by Mikeb99 here, my GT is AbledPumkin094, no I didn't make that up - it's what they gave to me when I logged into xbox the first time.

I live in Northern Ontario Canada and sometimes my connection isn't the best. My wife bought me a copy of Forza 5 and I have since moved on to Forza 6. Up until recently I hadn't played online. Now that I do... sometimes its fun and sometimes its not. Winter is on its way and I expect I'll be putting a few hours in playing.

I don't normally start a conversation while playing but I will usually respond if someone speaks directly to me. of course when the connection isn't the best I may not hear you.

Mike

Welcome aboard Mike.

Allow Parcells to offer you an official Canadian welcome....

Try to be a bit more athletic and better looking too, be more like Tom Brady.

Thomas, 45 and live in Texas.  Online I'm PartyPack5 not 4.  Wife, 3 kids and an IT job in the energy industry.  I enjoy Forza 6 with a Playseat and Thurstmaster TX wheel and pedal setup.  I'm hoping to compete in clean stock racing, maybe MX-5.  Send me a message if there is a MX-5 group going.  I prefer to race after 8:30 PM central.

Everyone here strives for clean racing so rest assured if it goes wrong, it's usually as upsetting on the other end as well.

You say stock racing, stock as in no mods spec racing?

My gamertag's oldschool 2o4f I paint and drive and in a pinch tune if I'm desperate. Hope to see you but Tuesday/Thurday's my worst chances of that.

When I say stock, I mean I don't want to spend all day tuning.  I don't mind a few mods like those given to race MX-5.  I don't paint, I like to use SweedishThunder or other's liveries.  That is why I selected # 10 so I won't have to change the current paint scheme :)  I will race other nights but Tuseay and Thursday are best.

I deliberately went through and sent out some friend requests yesterday to some of the newer posters. Seems like it's one of those "I'm gonna do it" things that never get done if you don't set out specifically to do so...

What Oldschool wrote reminds me of a question Parcells been meaning to ask...do you have to "accept" friend request on the XOne or do they default to accepted?

Thought I saw some "new friends" messages since I upgraded, never accepted anything and just assumed I had some new friends. Of course I might have been high but does anyone know the answer?

I would suggest you start here, post your gamer tag in a series or two that you are interested in and collect some gamer tags that you can add to your friends list.

http://www.2old2play.com/forums/sub-forum-forza-racing-events-series-inf...

Post up for friends list/advice/tune/paint access etc. DO NOT be shy. You're among friends so hit the ground running.

Do a search on your xbox for gamertag drivebye071, send him a friends request and that'll get you into most of what happens around here. Also, ask him about our facebook page, much more interaction on current events, and some nonsense occasionally...
