have to try the manual with clutch

How do you operate the clutch on a normal control pad?

I gave Forza 4 another chance today to redeem itself, but I just can't warm to it. Another thing I noticed (and I think it's been the same with all the previous games) is that if you are racing an identical car to yours you are always much faster than the opponent, even when your car is totally stock.

LB is clutch, if you hate racing ai just race online, i can safely say that in some of those S class sp races ive done the AI has had much quicker cars, its only my corner taking that wins it for me

Yeah some cars when tuned to max are just nowhere close to other tuned cars of the same class but later breaking at corners can help you scoot by

another thing to keep in mind is not all level rewards are equal....

http://uk.gamespot.com/features/6338910/forza-4-free-reward-cars-price-guide

• 1965 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe - 5,000,000
• 1966 Ford GT40 MkII - 1,500,000
• 1967 Ferrari 330 P4 - 9,000,000

all from the same level reward lol.

ShadowHearth

unklerosco

I think the shifts are slightly slower also... manual is much faster..
