The only issue I see is the club invites and if anyone wants to use your cars they have to leave their current garage and join the new one which means again they receive no club invites. I have no issues with what you are doing as I see it time and time again. And as with d2nr instead of pulling together as one large group we are splitting even more. The only official 2old4forza garages are 2OFE 2O4C 2o4w and one for the East usa if its available. And I estimated 90% of active members here are from one of these 4 groups. The rest have moved on. Coincidence maybe?

So as I said I don't have any issues with new clubs been made but by its very nature it's a splinter from 2OLD4FORZA . And for the record I was never happy that d2nr got created as I knew what the final outcome was going to be. And I was correct.

Im not sure how active the 2o4w garage is.  I was placed in it when I first signed up but there was zero activity (and I expect its still the same).  Thats why I had accepted the d2nr invite when I received it

Yeah I think all the American clubs need redoing as I think almost all active American players will fit in one. The euro club garage is very active to the point of us needing to cull members for new guys every other month.

I think we should reboot the American club then and I'll delete my new garage and just make a topic for my work instead like old school and them do. What if all active American members join the 2O4F club. I think that's currently the eastern division. I think snappy is the club leader there... Any thoughts?

Agreed. When I was in 204Fc The garage was always full you could never add anything, and I wasn't terribly impressed with the selection.

And I knew that D2NR had good cars because Motorehead sent some of them to me when I first started. Some that I still use, and are good enough that I have never changed a thing. I don't even look at the settings.

I third the reboot. I am in the second 2o4f and there might be ten guys that actually race at all. The cars are junk. It would be nice to pickup a race with pretuned cars like the IROC Series and just use club cars. It would be nice.

D2NR was started by Kurupt and Rocket was the mouthpiece (the one that did all the advertising at the Forrza site). There were  tuners, painters and some very fast racers here. When Kurupt went PC, Rocket was left in charge with Motorhead. Motorhead never got permissions. Rocket did a disappearing act, Motorhead and Jones have repeatedly tried to get in contact to no avail. D2NR is in limbo. Some of the guys went to another club, Momentum I think. 

Jones has been very active in adding cars to the clup. Motorhead has added cars and had tried to keep the garage active with a few races that he and I would put up. Some new members have been active in the garage as well lately too.

To be honest, D2NR needs be retooled or dropped altogether. This should be put up to the guys at D2NR first though. 

A revamping of the US 2O4F should be redone. 

 If you put a thread on who is active, everybody and their brother will came out of the woodwork to say there are still active and there will not be enough room in the club. Then we will not see 80% of these members until the next "whose active or racing numbers thread".

Yep!

The race numbers need to be re-done as well.

 

We shouldn't have to miss out on the number we want so that someone else can have it who NEVER races with us.

 

I haven't seen the number I wanted be used since joining about 6mos ago.

I'm waiting for Jones to kick the bucket so I can get his number... I'm hoping he leaves me it in his will. heart

Good discussion guys.

Jimmee, I don't remember ever seeing a race by the D2NR guys UNLESS it wasn't presented as by D2NR maybe? Which points back to the disconnect. I'd really like to see Motorhead back in the morass here.wink

Motorhead created some races with specific cars and I put up some threads here for them on Saturday nights. I think there were 3-4 at the time. When Cooter started his series we lost interest  from the group in ours and we just didn't put anymore on.  The cars were on the odd side that you would think of racing.

No sweat Cooter :) told you that then :)

We're talking about dissolving the in game American clubs and getting everyone into one club since there's a lot of inactive members and their cars cluttering up the garages.

I know, it was a mutual thing. I seem to remember alternating times from 9 to 9:30 to allow for each of us to have 1 week first and the other the next. I remember I was very worried about stepping on your guy's toes when I did that. If the club thing hasn't happened by the time my work has slowed down, I will run a series in the name of D2NR. Hell, I'll run one in collaberation with you guys, and I'll pay for the prizes to show my good faith and attitude towards D2NR for allowing me to run my series when you did. I really do appreciate that. I felt really bad even after you guys said it was ok. I kinda feel like I snuffed out the D2NR fire. What's done is done I guess, and now look, I'm repping D2NR. Guess some good came of it.

No need to do that. It was a mutual thing and we didn'y have a problem with the alternating time.  It just seemed that there was a lack of interest in our car selection and  that is what led to our races being dropped.  Motorhead worked hard on the cars, just didn't seem to pan out. 

No coplaints No worries Cooter :)

If you want to do that, contact Motorhead.
