The paint contest's theme for the next two weeks is Military.
The entry fee is 50,000CR. To pay the entry fee you will need to buy a 1973 Ford XB Falcon GT and gift it to me.
This can be done by going to Play Career> Cars> My Cars> Select the entry fee car > Gift Car> Then select my name (BlackEmrald) from the list.
THIS MEANS EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO COMPETE HAS TO SEND ME A FRIEND REQUEST
The same thing will be done with the prizes only in reverse order.
2 Photos of your finished paint job need to be sent to me in a PM (here on PFF, not Xbox Live) by 1/14/12. So, make sure the two pictures capture the paint as well as possible.
If anyone need's help getting their pictures on the computer, PM me.
The prizes will be as follows;
1st: Car of their choice up to 250K
2nd: Car of their choice up to 150k
3rd: Car of their choice up to 100K
As the newly appointed club leader, I have some new ideas for the club! Feel free to PM me any other ideas.
First of all I would like to set up a weekly "show" where we can race or cruise or whatever. I was thinking Saturdays at 9pm Central.
Also I want to set up a Bi-weekly paint contest, with entry fees so we can give away cars/cash prizes.
I would also like to keep a running list of peoples gamertags with their PFF name next to it so we know who wr are talking to online.
I love your ideas, please explain how the paint competition would work. Voted on, or just straight judged? And how would the money thing work, or you talking real money or in game credits?
I'm alright with that. Been busy lately from the holidays. Once it all calms down I'll be sure to be on more and plan more god-awfully stupid races for you guys.

And yes, it is me that holds more club records than all of you suckers! Come and get me...
I too have been busy with the holidays, and hope to play again soon. With life, my playing time is very erratic, but I will try and get on more.
I really stick to racing, and only do a bit of paint. A lot of time is spent trying to get that 1% time. Forza is very much like driving for me. When the weather sucks, it is nice to still be able to put miles on a fast car.
Really we can do as many or as little events as club activity would allow.
The paint contest would work like this:
A car would be assigned as well as a theme like "original race car or something as broad as yellow"
Anyone who wants to participate would send their entry fee to me (the fee amount would directly affecr prize quality)
In two weeks we either do a car show, or people submit photos to here. Judging would be ballot based with the only rule being you can't vote yourself (to promote sportsmanship)
Once the votes are tallied, the prizes would be handed out.
An example of the prize structure would be something like this:
With an entry fee of 30k:
1st: Car of your choice up to 150k 2nd: 75k 3rd: 45k
(Or something along those lines)
It really depends on what you all want. That's why I want everyone's input.
My gamertag is Mattwa Goldrush (all caps for some reason..no idea why I did that). Aka the track destroyer, just ask anyone that has raced with me... LOL.
I play as often as I can, though my house has no heat right now so I can't really play. And when i'm at my friend's house I can't connect to any of the races for some reason. It's weird.
I am FieroAK (Zach) and my XBox Gamertag is LostChaoticSoul. Just refer to my signature.
P.S: In a race I'm usually the one in the lead :P or ramming people and driving the wrong way around the track.

Well, I got the game for Christmas. Now I have to renew my Xbox Live membership so I can play on-line. I also have to earn up some credits so I can buy the Fiero. My Xbox Live name is, strangely enough, Jim_Martin29.

I like the idea of a scheduled race/meet, makes it easier for me to schedule around the kids xbox time. as for paint contest why not, might get some of us to improve a little bit

Club "leader"... Seriously? Sorry man, iv been online gaming for many many MANY years.. Helped run a gaming community that lasted more than 12 years.. Having "leaders" in any gaming group does nothing but create drama.. Because nobody ever wants to do the same things..
Not interested..

Friend me if any of you guys want to race, but not interested in the club.. Had enough of gaming groups with "leaders" over the years. No offense.

That's a terrible attitude, but it's your loss really.
We have a LOT of fun pretty regularly.

All of the clubs on Forza have to have a club leader, it's mandated by the game. There has been no drama or anything of that nature, just good ole' fun. Don't let your past experiences sway you away from this.

Going to be getting FM4 pretty soon, I hope. If you want to friend me on there, have at it, but I must warn you early, I haven't logged onto my live account in close to 4 months... Hopefully I'll be able to start getting on more after new years...
