I cannot wait until I get home tonight. Mountain Dew, Ramen, and Atomic Fireballs are already keyed in position. I am not getting off the couch the rest of the night. May even throw on one of those adult diaper things. A Fiero made it into my favorite game!

Thanks for posting up the info on swaps and parts. I will be able to make my GT.

------------------

Nice!

I'll put my E-class tune up in the storefront so anyone can use it for the rivals event "one lap thriller." I'm currently the top fiero time on the leaderboards, and I feel like I'm at the limitations of my driving skill. I think a better driver might be able to get more out of it than I can. I'll put it up for free, and all that I ask is that you rate the tune so I can climb up in the leaderboards for my tuning. Search for pennocks in tuning setups and it should come up. Or, if you are already in the Pennocks Racing club, just go to my storefront and it'll be there under tuning setups. Gamertag is DarthKlipsch for anyone who doesn't know who I am.

I'm working on tuning setups for all classes leading up to S-class as well, so we can each have a fiero in any class we choose. I know it can be tuned up to R3, but the HP numbers just aren't there to keep it competitive on the straights. S-class looks like the highest it will at least be able to go and still stay in the hunt for the lead.

I'll be on tonight after I get out of work for a while, so I'm hoping I'll see a bunch of you online and we can run few races together.

Sweet an ls4! too bad we can't swap in a GNX engine

Also, I do all my tuning with all assists off. So it should work well for everyone no matter what assists you use while racing.

I propose a race, stock car no tunes. best driver wins

Well technically thats what people are doing, hence the leaderboard standings. Not sure if theres a way to set up a tournament with tune restrictions, completely stock off the showroom floor. I'm curious of how I stand compared to you fine drivers . I can't wait to play, it'll have to wait till thurs night when I'm done with my projects

I haven't messed with tuning cars since Forza3 but for the Fiero I've started messing with tunes again. Got the start of an A class tune in my store and I'll update it as the day goes on. gamertag KnightLowrey

wow I have never been much into video games since I was a kid, but this might all change now... Sounds like I might have to buy an xbox and join the forza 4 addiction

Everything is the Previous owners fault

Got a little twisted up in the Nurburgring and learned you can bust out the fastback sail panels and back window

little upset that Im gonna have to buy a 360 just for this game lol

Also uploaded a Drag tune for a 10.5 Fiero

Built mine today. She doesnt turn worth a darn in R3. It needs some down force! Not just Fiero specific, most all of the regular production cars (Modded to R class) suffer from this same problem.

Glad to see the Fiero made it! I Now have a killer Starion, Syclone and Fiero in my garage. Just like the old days!

I'm not going to have Forza 4 until Christmas but I'd love to come race with you all once I get it.

Can you remove the drip rails for aerodynamics?

Lunch time.

I want my TLG low rise wingstands.

The sound is close, and the rendering is nice. I can't wait until later...

Edit: Anyone notice the lack of a front spire in the fascia? Looks like the mod I did to mine last spring.

OMG it handles like sex!!!! One of the best handling cars in the game, stock. It handles like how I usually tune my cars, sharp turn-in and lift-off oversteer, neutral handling with very little understeer and lots of turning left even at WOT. Pretty much exactly how my '88 GT handles in real life . I was driving a '89 MR2 S/C in the game before this and I'd say the Fiero outhandles it....the mkI MR2 is a lot more twitchy (going into corners in it the back end angles out too much and kinda drags the car off its driving line) and it likes to snap back around when counter-steering. The Fiero has some of that but its a lot less pronounced.

I can't wait to fully build and tune one . So far I just have 1, and I gave it a few engine mods to get it up to D class. Most of the time in Forza, I end up doing suspension/brake/transmission mods first. The Fiero is one of the few cars I haven't had to do that, I had to go for power mods though because it IS underpowered .

Hopefully this will get the Fiero some gamer respect. The car drives very well and I think it matches up with its competition ('89 MR2 S/C and '95 MR2 Turbo) very well.

------------------

I stink at tunes.... I just add go fast parts and call it good. Anyone have a good guide to follow for tunes??

Damn man I wish I had an Xbox 360 now as we bought my Kids a Wii last year. My son has an Xbox that a friend loaned to him and I would love to see the Fiero running on screen in real game play but I do not think I will pony up the cash to buy the game for a system that I do not own. If I had the cash for a new system it would probably be going to something else right now. Christmas is not far away so I guess I will have to live vicariously thru you game junkies on here. SO BRING ON THE SCREEN SHOTS!!! Peace

Yup. 1st thing I saw actually. My girlfriend just rolled her eyes when I started yelling at the TV because the front fascia wasn't accurate. Lol

Tony, I noticed the lack of the spire in the pre-release photos, and was waiting to see if that was going to be a last-minute change.

I absolutely love the way this thing handles, it's just so damn good. I've been busy already making performance and appearance replicas of my cars, some of my friends Fieros, etc. It's sooooo cool. I share with you my version of the Team PontiAxed ChumpCar. It's based on the Huffaker IMSA GTU car, which I also uploaded to the storefront. When I went to bed last night, 18 of you had already downloaded the Huffaker car.

I was toying with some aerodynamics, so sorry about the splitters and spoiler on the front. Here is my attempt at the rare blue '87 GT =P. I don't know if I got the colors of the body or gfx spot on, but it looks good to me lol.



I tossed the two tone vinyl onto my storefront but its super easy to do anyhow.

IS that the REAL CAR or a screen shot from the Game. If it is the latter that is freakin' badass looking. It looks so real..... Does the car appear that good during game play, I suppose that would be impossible...peace

Pete

I love the other designs! It looks like my GFX are indeed too bright, I need to brighten up my TV screen lol, the pictures I upload are a bit brighter than I see on the TV.

Here's a picture I took when I first bought the car, and did some swapping/lowering. Looks like it has front wheels in the back lol, but oh well. I love this car!

Screen shot. The ingame rendering is pretty good. ManMadeChickens really does have a Fiero like the rendering. (Nice job. I will download it later. )

Freakin' amazing.... Those cars look way too real..... If that car looks anywhere near that good during the game play I can see why you all are so excited about it... That is so cool...peace

Pete

Couple of videos I made of my first Fiero cruising around Indy.

BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait to start playing, what a tease!!

If anyone wants I made a pretty good D350 tune. Just have to drive with a lead foot, any bit of oversteer can be corrected by applying more gas pedal.

It's definitely going to become my go-to car for most stuff I think. The lack of power is more than made up for with its handling. Like Tinton says, you don't really have to adjust the suspension and chassis at all!

the game is very realistic, i just spent more money on an engine swap then i did on the car.

ROFLMAO

It can go to about 830HP ish. That thing is NUTS with that much power. When you are in the inside view, it feels like it's just going to blow apart or explode when it gets to 200MPH, LOL.Oh, and I put the F23's ratio's in there.

got my first 88 fiero gt my live name is XgovermentAgent. looks like you can start an online club if im not mistaken. PFF group maybe?

search pff and you will find it

Hah, yeah since the race box is 6-speed I use the F40 ratios

I run three Fieros in the game now - tuned for C, B and A. The A-class car is making around 300hp (2.8 with twin turbos and cam), full cage and suspension, angry tyres etc and it can school Ferraris...

Awesome shot!
