Looking forward to next weeks race with FGTs. I have around 9 of them so one should be stock. Think I might use the green/yellow FGT. Also I call dibs on the 14 car once we get to the Nascar race lol. Tonight should be fun.

Nice pictures there ice. Good race last night. I was able to stay within 2 to 5 seconds behind eci the entire race and just could not get close enough to catch his draft. The fgt race next week will be sweet since I haven't used that car in forever. At 502 hp it handles great with no tuning.

thanks wagg, Congratz on your 2nd place finish @ Rome.   FGT's preview race in Monza was very fast and fun,  at 502hp they are much nicer to drive.

eci, you won the prize of selecting track and car for 5th race.  Please could you post your selection.

Please select any of the premium or ocd or any giftable standard car to make sure everyone will have it.    DLC tracks are fine, we all have it I think.
