Driving backwards?

Well, this game looks spectacular -- no doubt about it. And that's great to know that Turn 10 actually listened and incorporated the in-car view for Forza 3. I was also hoping to find out information today on if that new Xbox 360 steering wheel will feature clutch pedal support for this game, but oh well.

I wonder if the Drift events in Forza 3 are based on the real world Formula D or D1 Grand Prix series of events. What will the Timed Events consist of? And what to make of Circuit de la Sarthe at Le Mans? Will there be a legitimate 24-hour race mode included for this track?

Amazing.

Che from Turn 10:

	The truth is FM3 is even MORE of a sim than FM2. One of the big physics improvements we've added is real-time tire deformation and wall flex which directly affect grip threshold. We'll be doing deep dives into all of FM3's new sim features in the coming weeks and months.

So this game will have tire wear, eh? Adds a lot more intrigue to endurance races. I like it!

Keep the good news coming, Flawless.

The only thing that bugs me about the game is that it appears to be only 8 cars on a track at a time. Hell even GT5 will have 16 cars (If its ever released)

I was thinking the same thing. If it's a car and driving enthusiast game (which I suspect it is) instead of a racing enthusiast game, then I'm sure it won't have any more than 8 cars on the grid. But of course, racing may just be the context rather than the emphasis of this particular game anyway. Oh well.

Man, it would be a crying shame if Forza 3 doesn't include more than 8 cars in any online and offline races. For me, that would be a huge negative for the game that outweighs many of the positive things that are going on for it.
