Forza Motorsport XBOX Live Car Club: MINIACS

Hey all,

If there are any gamers here, I've created a car club in Forza Motorsport's Xbox Live called the MINIACS. If you're not aware, Forza is a new racing game akin to GT4, except for Xbox. With the online car club feature you can do club races and challenge other clubs, etc.

Just for fun, here is the Mini that I am running in the game, I'm not going to list all the mods because it would be ridiculous:

2003 Cooper S (modded to look like my JCW)
All Performance Mods = 375 hp 352lb-ft torque.
Weight Reduction Kit...down to 2219 lbs
Racing slicks


Let me know your nick in the online Forza and I will invite you to the club.

Did you send it to the right one. There are no invites in forza or anything. SmilingSven, most people think it is smiling"seven" but it's not.

Peace

Looking forward to burning ricers!

Man, I thought I was bad for having about 3 MINIs in Forza. . .got the stock D, a C1 and an A1. Didn't do the slicks cuz I didn't want to move above A class. I've got about the same power (375 or so), gearing for about 182 on the test oval (still tweaking) and squirrely handling, too. More development is in order!!

My gamertag is UUNetBill61 - I'll probably be sending some of you fellow MINI drivers some friend invites!!
