Weird touge lobbys

Some ppl might disagree with me on this.
In my opinion its stupid to have cars like fords, lotuses, lancias etc in touge lobbys.
It sorta lowers the feeling of a proper fujimi race.

I don't think anyone disagrees with you on that one

They shouldnt, but every once in a while ppl use those other, non jdm cars. Last night some guy drove a lancia in ouer touge lobby, it looked funny imo

Ranault 5 turbo's are fast in the right hands and a pain in the neck to stay in front of lol

Yeah prop is fast, that 5`turbo, and escorts are fast too. But i think you bukkaz know what i mean coz you drive jdm cars in touge lobbys

Japan is not the only country with a mountain road you know.

Quote - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C5%8Dge
It refers to a mountain pass or any of the narrow, winding roads that can be found in and around the mountains of Japan
and other geographically similar areas

What so being an Australian im not allowed to use an XB falcon, a car well know for its racing on Bathurst


In its prime


What it looked like in those days


A race ran this year 2012


and i dont want to hear a word about them not being run just as hard and in the same era


Down the touge onto the straight and talking to coms at over 200km/h

I think he meant Fujimi Kaido, a japanese mountain pass, instead of touge Wilson but yes the Bathurst races are one of the most exciting races in motorsport history!

Fixed.

I fixed it, thank you kraze
Yes i meant fujimi kaido, Japanese mountain road, offcourse there are touge culture in other countries aswell.

Wish here in Finland would also be something similar.

I agree with you fully Fastlane.

Just because of this i decided to throw together a XB. All considered it wasnt that bad, maybe a project for myself.

^I have one too they are massively fun *pun intended*

True but they are HUGE lol

Lol yes, come to think of it it might weigh less than a Supra. But the area of the car is huge. I dont know why, but i like the way it feels to go downhill in that thing, its so much different from a small jdm car thats .2 inches off the ground.

Personally I don't much care for the leaderboard cars but because we don't like them, we took JDM only which kinda is lame to me because then other more fun or interesting cars are mostly forgotten or just never used to its potential

I never cared much for using American cars, other than the muscle since those are fun, but i do like the german cars, porsche, volks, bimmers, all fun on the touge to me.

I like muscle cars too, i drive bmw`s and many other cars on circuits or at drifting sessions. And everyone has their preference offcourse, one likes that other likes this etc. Its an battle of opinions

I'm going to have to heavily disagree with you on this one. Forza is forza, and to deny someone a car they love is a terrible decision. It just so happens that most of the people who like touge races also like japanese cars. But if we want a stronger community we should not limit someones choices on the car they choose. Not to mention it would bring some much needed variety to touge racing.

This! This! and This!

The only limits put on cars are the Lotus' that fill up the leaderboard, and pretty much everyone agrees with that.

I totally agree considering Fujimi is based on japanese Touge culture its so weird to see people drive anything non JDM or even luxury and supercars in those races it just doesnt seem right. I wouldnt forbid anyone to drive it (excluding leaderboard cars) but still a battle is only half as intense like that.

Excatly as i thought it

I dont need to explain the difference in for example chasing a 240sx down the long straight in the first half of new downhill into a braking battle into the following hairpin seeing backfire coming from the exhaust...

and that very same situation chasing a i dont know Chevelle SS which is a nice car for itself but doesnt actually fit into that situation
