I absolutely suck at drifting in Forza. But I am almost done with my Froza 4 world tour, only about 6 races to go.

Right there with ya. If I'm drifting, that usually means "skidding into a wall"

I've been using my ZR1 for drifting lately. Works surprisingly well until she starts playing the spinning game.

I told you it'd be a good drifting car. And every drift car does the spinning game. That's why it's a drift car. If it doesn't spin, you have too much traction.

I usually race A & S class races; Ferrari F50.. 360 CS, But I do have a ZL1, ZR1 and Saleen set up to run the larger tracks. I'm wanting to mess with an AWD platform but not sure where to start. Some Brazilian kid was crushing turns in an AWD Elise!

An AWD Viper ACR is hard to beat in S class.

What about drag set ups, you guys do anything? I bought a 69 SS but it's horrible, I need to retool my gears and differential I think.

Hands down my best all around car in Forza 4 is the '13 Viper, mine is in a class R3 and on an all wheel drive platform. I hope it will be just as good in Foza 5...

How does my Drivatar act?

I've realized that the classic cars usually don't make good drag cars. I have a pretty successful Mustang GT500. It's beat Fen's Camaro ZL1 and it's almost a full class above my Mustang. Sometimes I use a fully modified GTR.

Yours is pretty good. Z51 I see driving in the dirt or grass quite often. In a race of 16 people you are usually placed in 5-6.

Awesome! I'm looking forward to seeing your Drivatar around. We need to get some real races together.

I use a heavily modded Nissan 240SX.. With stock tires.

That's really funny because he says the same thing about yours.

He slams into me whenever I try to pass. My guy probably just slams into everyone trying to make a turn.
