Is this month the last or second to last of the season pass? I'd imagine they're going to announce all the VIP stuff soon.

After the March pack comes out, there is one more DLC pack, and then as far as we know, officially, Turn-10 is done with DLC.

Maybe then they will release an old school Mini on its own for 10,000 MS points.

They should just do a straight decompile/recompile of all the FM1 maps and ship it. Low res textures and everything, would be a 200MB download or something and give us 6 tracks that aren't in FM4 right now.

Check this poo poo out guys: SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS

It's a track in Belgium, which is basically France but with beer instead of wine. I've seen it in other games, and also they do a 24-hour race there.

Also I hear Australia has some good tracks. It's basically New Zealand but with fewer Hobbits and every animal has the capacity to kill you.

It's a good thing for you that the fuel tank can't be pierced by a rear collision, causing the fuel inside to catch fire, burning you to death in the process.

No thank you, I want them to do it right or not at all. Gran Turismo 5 did this and it was a total disaster. Inconsistent quality like that is really unprofessional and I would like to think Turn-10 is better than that.

God drat, the Fanatec CSR with pedals have gone down to $250. I so badly need this.

This pisses me off because For all the stuff I bought (CSR wheel, CSR shifters, Porsche pedals) the loving value pack XL with the CSR elite pedals is only ten dollars more than what I paid for one with 30 dollar pedals. So now I have to pay 150 bucks for the elite pedals.

I would pay serious money for Spa and Bathurst to be in this game. Forza 4 has gotten everything else so right, it just has such a small collection of tracks compared to its competitors.

Fantastic car pack - can't wait to try out some of these beasts.

I think GTCC needs to revisit the old-school cars once this is released, what with three new pre-1970 awesomeboxes in this car pack.

That's the loving car. The one that a green student thought would be a good choice for an HPDE. That I ended up instructing.

As I slid into the car and fastened the six point harness and I looked out through the bubble canopy, I thought, "holy poo poo, I'm in a racecar." Then I thought about it a moment and thought "oh poo poo, I'm in a racecar."



Awesome car, but 720hp in the hands of a novice driver is not really a good idea.

Try the Nissan Versa, it's fairly similar to my wife's Corolla sedan.

This is how I know T10 loves cars: a Corvair makes it in. drat. I'm psyched.

Take advantage of the Squire’s wide body and cut someone off the next time you’re racing online. After all, isn’t that one of the reasons station wagons were invented?

Or the Yaris, that's another Toyota hatchback, though smaller than a Corolla and definitely shittier.

I really really really hope you can swap a Corvette engine into the Corvair. I've seen such a thing at car shows before but they were just trailer queens that were never fired up, so I have to know what happens when one is let loose on a track. Well okay, I know the answer is utter hilarity, but still.

Also another gimmicky Ford and another classic Alfa, hell yeah! At this rate maybe they actually will find a surviving Alfasud to put in. One has to exist somewhere.

Was thinking earlier that the only class I don't have a car tuned for is R1. Now I'm torn between the 312, Ultima and the 787b from the last DLC.

Obligatory "dat station wagon" post whilst I'm here. That's gonna be a fun car around C class I reckon.

From what I can find it looks like the 2011 has wider tires and is about 100kg lighter, and it's got twin turbo V8 from the most current M5 replacing the V10 in the 2010 model. I would say that's a bit more than just a minor refresh.
