Forza 6 Racing Help

Greetings,

I need some help getting past the first 3 race series. The highest I place is 5th. All the cars they give me to use are way too slow. I am a beginner and follow the racing line. However, on a straightaway I just get left behind because the cars are so slow.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Can you change the drivatar level? Not sure if you can do it in the first series.

Thanks. I did put it down a notch and it seems to help. But then I would have to put it on the lowest level. Besides the shame, what if that doesn't help? Lol!

Seriously, is there something I am missing?

Thanks.

There is no shame. Start at the bottom and build yourself up. Forza 5 was my first. I started at the lowest drivatar levels and as many assists. Slowly increase

Oh well, I guess I will have to start at the bottom. I will climb up and work myself up.

Re: Forza 6 Racing Help

If you buy your car within career mode, versus the main menu garage, it should be auto tuned to the class the series is using. Make sure you cars PI is as close to the class cap as possible.

Compare speed rating to other cars. You may have car a with high handling but lower speed and excel, its a balance you have to find that fits your driving style and tracks as well. A good handling car on a track with few turns will make it harder to place high, just like a fast, poor handling car will struggle more on twisty tracks.

As a new driver you may want to favor hadling. Most tracks have more corners than long straights and cornering proper will be the biggest hurdle for a new driver. I find the ai is almosts always slower in the corners that you can still sacrafice a little on the straights.

As soon as you feel comfotable turn off assisted braking. This assist can over compensate and realy slow your cornering down.

Re: Forza 6 Racing Help

Hi all, I own Forza 1 through 4. I have a question about 6. Are you able to just jump right in and pick and car, any track and set the number of laps and have a single player race? Or are you forced to do the career mode with certain cars, tracks, and laps?

I'm basically wondering if t's like project cars where I can set up my races the way I want them without having to unlock a bunch of stuff.

thanks.
