You can actually get to that little island in centre of the lake
Myth confirmed!
-
Thanks guys.
Paladin, it's the smaller lake in the west, in Kiewa Valley west of the larger dam reservoir. The pier has one small fishers boat docked to it.
Be careful though, ofcourse the pier is quite narrow making a turn with anything larger than a GT86 a challenge not falling in the water. Besides that, the game doesn't recognize it as 'safe ground'. When you enter the ramp, you can only drive on the bit that goes from left to the boat at the right. And even on that bit, you can only get halfway to the boat before the game resets you to the dirth paths.

Already started liking Opel with that '12 Astra GTC and the Insignia... wow this looks really good. A lot like the Mazda 6 yes, but that's good because that's a welcome view to the road too.
-
Voted, lots of awesome entries once again.
-
Standing out it sure does lol.
Few more shots, including a series of pics which I made for TBC #80 (not including my actual final entry picture). Also wanted to hotrod the F100 a bit without making it look crazy, and I went for a different look on the SL65 BS. Note on the SL65 BS: it's very bouncy when landing from a jump. Already caused it to go wrong side up more times than during non-road races in jeeps or pick-up trucks.

Esteban Ocon and Pascal Wehrlein are part of Mercedes driver programme. I think Ocon was already in a team, Wehrlein not yet. Lots of people in holland want Max to go there, but that won't happen either because Merc would have to pay massively to Red Bull.
EDIT: according to a dutch car blog site, this picture was posted on instagram. Talking to The Fossil is the Dutch prince Bernard, who is a former GT4 race driver and who now owns the Zandvoort race track. Hashtags included with this picture would hint at talks about hosting F1 races in Holland.

WR2 was a great game, especially for a dev like Synetic. But how alive is that scene still? I know Synetic isn't but the modding scene looks kinda quiet now too. That combines with the fact Synetic games weren't always easy to find, especially longer times after the game's release.

Thank the current chief of design over there for that silly fastback tail. But that's what it's a placeholder for, to come up with something else :nods:
-
That's why I tune everything fully and almost always add AWD. Sucks for originality but I can live with it. And never lose hope! In rare cases, you cán get into a race where the AI isn't cheating. Either that, or hope at least the two biggest cheaters enter in Isetta's or Reliants :D
Maybe it's just me btw, but I noticed there are always 2 drivaturdolinis cheating the most/fastest/continuously, and they happen to be in my friendslist (which consists of those two and a guy I don't know who he is). Sometimes I'd almost fire them from my line-up, see if it makes a difference. Bet it won't, the game either keeps them or assigns new ones to make my career miserable I guess.
-
-
Ye but that doesn't solve the cheating during races which I actually meant :p It made some races unnecessary difficult with lots of redo's lol.
-
I understand all of the above, and it has also crossed my mind, but I think I'll still get it. Reason I did go for it is because expansion, because snow, and I'm not really bothered by issues I see a lot of other players struggle with. For me myself the only really big downside is the drivatar behavior.

Snow!!!
Get the snow tires ready and pack your best parka, because Blizzard Mountain beckons! The Blizzard Mountain Expansion for Forza Horizon 3is coming Dec. 13 and bringing with it a Forza first – snow, ice, extreme elevations and blizzards to challenge players in their quest to become the King of the Mountain. Set amidst extreme alpine settings, players will explore a snowy mountain playground in eight new vehicles – including the 2016 Ford GYMKHANA 9 Focus RS RX – all in brand new race events that have been specifically designed for spectacular mountain racing.
The Blizzard Mountain expansion for Forza Horizon 3 is available separately or as part of the Forza Horizon 3 Expansion Pass, which gives players discounted access to two expansions for $34.99. Ultimate Edition owners receive a $10 discount on the Forza Horizon 3 Expansion Pass if purchased before the end of 2016. If you haven’t yet taken Forza Horizon 3 for a spin, today is the last day of our Black Friday deals, check them out here.
Become King of the Mountain
This brand-new campaign challenges players to compete in a series of thrilling events with the ultimate goal of becoming the King of the Mountain. With more than 50 new events and challenges to compete in, the expansion tests drivers’ skills across extreme weather and brand new race types, including Hill Climb, Descent and Blizzard race events. In addition, players will be able to take part in new Bucket List Blueprint and Rivals events, as well as earn 28 new Xbox Live Achievements worth 500 Gamerscore points (see below for the full list of Achievements).
Explore a New Alpine Playground
Blizzard Mountain is a mountain paradise for car fans, full of adventurous terrain and challenging driving conditions. New areas like the extreme sports snow park and a massive frozen lake make this the ultimate snowy playground for players’ favorite vehicles. In addition, players will find bonus boards to smash, beauty spots to enjoy, and a brand new hidden Barn Find vehicle.
Blizzard Mountain also introduces seven brand new vehicles to the game (plus the aforementioned Barn Find), including the incredible 2016 Ford GYMKHANA 9 Focus RS RX, the 2016 Nissan Titan Warrior Concept, classic rally cars and more. In addition, when exploring Blizzard Mountain, players will be able to choose snow tire upgrades for any of the vehicles in Forza Horizon 3 to prepare them to take on a wide range of thrilling driving surfaces.
Now, here’s a closer look at the new cars coming to the expansion:
2016 Ford GYMKHANA 9 Focus RS RX
The 2016 Ford GYMKHANA 9 Focus RS RX shifts everything we love about Ford’s latest hatchback masterpiece into overdrive. The RX RS is an astonishing 10-inches wider than the Focus RS and features nearly double the horsepower. There are vents, and lips, and flares that all culminate into a form that screams speed. Take a rocket ride through the sequential gearbox and blow through some twisties and find out exactly what makes this car Ken Block’s latest Gymkhana weapon of choice.
1965 Ford F-100 Flareside Abatti Racing Trophy Truck
Long before the tube-frame, fiberglass bodied trophy trucks of today, men (and women) raced real trucks in the desert. The Abatti family has been doing so for three generations and the “Hay Hauler” is a rig that changed the face of desert racing. Everything bolts or is welded to the frame and there are four shocks per corner, as well as leaf springs, making it much closer to stock than the completely fabricated and engineered trucks of today. Don’t let its age fool you into thinking it isn’t fast though; Robby Gordon has raced this truck in Class 8 and once ended up so far ahead that race spectators thought he was lost when they spotted him.
1975 Lancia Stratos HF Group 4
You can thank Lancia’s competition manager Cesare Fiorio for what went on to become one of the most legendary rally cars in history. Fiorio’s enthusiasm drove the Stratos from first sight as a concept to its Group 4 development. The wedge shape penned by Marcelo Gandini helped establish Bertone as a more than just a custom coach builder. When engine development stalled, a Ferrari V6 was utilized in the mid-engine design. In race spec, the near 300 hp and rally suspension excelled on tarmac or mixed surfaces. Rally Legend Sandro Munari won 17 stages at the San Remo Rally in this car, making the Group 4 racer’s mark in what has become the stuff of rally legend.
1985 Lancia Delta S4 Group B
The Group B rally era took rally car performance to new levels, and the Delta S4 is possibly the most extreme interpretation. What looks vaguely like a hot-hatch is a mid-engine all-wheel-drive car with near perfect 50-50 weight distribution. The engine has both a super charger for low-end grunt and a turbo for near 500 high-revving hp. The S4 set the pace in Group B with drivers Markku Alén and Henri Toivonen. Sadly and historically, Toivonen suffered a fatal crash in the S4 at Corsica that prompted the end of Group B. Despite the loss, the mid-eighties will forever be remembered as a high point in rally racing development, in large part to the Delta S4.
2016 Nissan Titan Warrior Concept
If Nissan actually decides to build the Titan Warrior Concept, the Ford Raptor better get ready for some competition. The Warrior follows Ford’s lead into the desert racing, pre-runner inspired design with more than just a look that calls to adventure. The Warrior is six inches wider than a standard Titan, is powered by a Cummins Turbo Diesel, and has suspension for days. On the outside, the look is all that as well, with flared fenders a cab spoiler and the trim and lighting to make it standout. You can’t yet drive it in the real world, but a test drive in Forza will surely whet your appetite for what we hope will become a reality.
2016 RJ Anderson #37 Polaris RZR-Rockstar Energy Pro 2 Truck
Pro 2 Unlimited trucks are two-wheel-drive race trucks with almost unlimited modifications. Their suspension travel is phenomenal and while only the rear wheels are pushing, the traction they find makes for astounding speed, with opposite lock sliding turns and amazing jumps in every lap. RJ Anderson is climbing the ranks of top drivers and was led in 2016 by only the infamous Rob McCachren in the Lucas Off Road Racing Series. The #37’s killer livery featuring sponsors Polaris and Rockstar Energy makes it look fast, even sitting still, but we doubt you will ever see it doing anything less than flying.
2016 Subaru #199 WRX STI VT15r Rally Car
Rally America is the United States’ premier national rally series and Subaru has been consistently dominant as the motorsport continues to gain traction across the country. The #199 is driven by extreme motorsport and motocross legend Travis Pastrana, who has given Subaru teammate and multi-year Rally America champion David Higgins a run for his money, winning numerous stages throughout the year and taking the win at the 100-Acre Wood event in 2016. This is the factory works racing effort from Subaru in the open class. What that means is there is nothing faster under rally conditions and no effort or expense was spared in building this world-class racer.
And don’t forget to keep an eye out for that mystery barn find while discovering all that Blizzard Mountain has to offer this December.

Guessing it's a 991.2 Turbo. It's the only one I can find with such bumper intakes and 2 separate light units inside the headlight housing.

Happy bewbday hassan! :nods:

No I wasn't. :p I wanted to try something else than the Ute, so I bought and customized an F100. Then I tried 20 locations and couldn't get anything decent from it, with the last locations in that dune area. So I decided to get a rally car instead, I tried that, and it worked. I only saw the similarity with your picture too late when I was looking at all entries to make my votes.

It's just Monday but it's already time to fry some brains: NASA's published its paper regarding EmDrive, a proposed propulsion system that ignores one of Newton's fundemental laws (every action has an equal+opposite reaction). Short said: we still don't understand how, but it works!*
It's official: NASA's peer-reviewed EM Drive paper has finally been published - ScienceAlert
*it works, on a miniscule, unrefined scale, but provides several times more force than lightsails.

Evo VI, I think it was called GSR. I turned it into a rally car because because. And no rally car's complete without a light array the size of the telescopes in FH3.

Lots of great pics in there :nods: *voted*.

That's the current AMG GT range, but it's not enough because there's going to be an AMG GT C Coupe and a Black Series too... Well then. Also, Sport Auto has driven an AMG GT R around the Nordschleife, it took their driver 7:11 while they drove a 918 Spyder earlier to 7:13. And to end the Merc bit, have a video of the new E63 doing 0-250 km/h.
Bonus: Lexus LC 500 :nods:
