[oneFASTmustang]

wait forza has fox bodies? well if gt5 doesnt i may take that first statment back.

[Nagakilo]

Forza has the 93 Foxbody Cobra. It's a very solid car up until B class. Once it hits that it gets a tad bit harder to control, but then again most of the muscle cars do when you drive without TCS. No assists is the only way to drive. I find that ABS makes driving harder. . ..

[johnnshepherd]

my main car is a 05 mustang gt with a twin turbo, awd swap, and 5.0 cammer engine swap. that thing is such a beast.

[paul289]

93 Mustang with a Boss '9 for oval tracking and drag racing

'05 Mustang for road racing

GT for, well, I just got it, so I haven't found a true purpose for it

Focus RS w/ awd and a Cammer for the twisties and some drag racing

And a '79 Camaro painted in grey primer with rust spots. My redneck racer.

Oh, and a few Saleens as well.

So many of us have realized that there is no 2010 mustang present in Forza 3. I was just thinking about it, maybe this is a sign of something to come? Maybe they didn't want to put the 2010 into the game because they are savvy like us and know that the 5.0 is coming and can slide that into the game as DLC.

Thoughts?

[paul289]

I'm hoping that the 2010 is gonna be dlc. And I think that the 65 GT350R is missing from the game, too. Personally, I'd rather have that than the 68 GT500 KR. There's already the Boss 429 for drag racing, so why do we need another classic high-power low-handling Mustang?

[Nagakilo]

Good point, I grabbed a boss and gave it the AWD to try and make it a track car. . ..Yeah, give a brick 5 billion in upgrades and it's still a brick lol

[paul289]

Yeah, I gave in and did the AWD conversion on the Boss. It's really the only way to make it competitive. And the upgrade path for the Boss 429 isn't very realistic. I should be putting down 800 hp with a cam swap and a 10.0L displacement upgrade. And a carb and valve job should take you up to 1000 hp.

By the way, have you noticed how easy the '93 Cobra R is to roll? First set of turns on the Grand Prix circuit of Catalunya (sp?), first lap, I hit the rumble strips while turning hard, wheels come up, car goes over, rolls about three times.

[jordan7182002]

I rented it for a week and had a fully custom Mustang that was won...it was red, but I loved to edit the paint job!

[Nagakilo]

Yeah, really the Cobra is best for use at C class or lower. It's not sticky enough for higher classes. Now the 2000 Cobra R, that's my A class monster. The 93 though, it'd be incredibly powerful if they ever make drag racing effecient for RWD

[paul289]

What they need is a suspension swap in the conversion area. I want to put in a 4-bar suspension for drag racing and an IRS for road racing. And maybe an SLA front suspension option. Drag slicks would be a nice addition instead of just standard racing slicks.
