No im not poking at anybody named ivan... When Toca Racing 2 Came out my brother found out about a group of guys doing Crazy Ivan Races... HUH? was my first thought... And then my thoughts of Darryl Reaugh using that term in hockey when Sergei Zubov would deke and skate his way just above the crease.. But Never fear... It has nothing do with hockey and all to do with alot of fun and mayhem... Some of you are really good at Forza.. Im good as well, if taking a turn at 85 mph.. (oh 155 kph for those to the north...) and crashing into a wall is good.. So here's a mix of both... Great drivers will enjoy the competition and the not-so-great, like myself, will have fun as well.. What is it..? you ask.. Very Simple.. Everybody gets the same car at the beginning. There's 8 participants and a series of 7 races.. All 8 race to the finish line like a normal race. Next race or heat, Who ever finishes last in the first race becomes the Crazy Ivan. He runs the race backwards and his sole purpose is to cause as much mayhem as possible. who ever finish last in that race joins the crazy ivan, and runs it backwards with him.. so you have 6 going forward 2 going backwards.. heat after heat you have another join the crazy ivan team and until there is a winner.. So its.. Heat 1: All 8 run forward Heat 2: 7 run forward, 1 run backwards Heat 3: 6 run forward, 2 run backwards Heat 4: 5 run forward, 3 run backwards Heat 5: 4 run forward, 4 run backwards Heat 6: 3 run forward, 5 run backwards Heat 7: 2 run forward, 6 run backwards When After heat 7 you have the winner... Very enjoyable for everybody and alot of fun.. Anybody want to play tomorrow (sunday) night at 10pm est.. ?
I've been holding down the fort while the missus sleeps in for a few hours this morning. I should be able to make it tonight at 7pm PST (10pm EST). :mrgreen:
Thanks guys .. and special thanks to Ace jenkins and 1980 Oldsmobile.. We got 8 and it was alot of laughs.. We'll do it again soon..
I was driving down the straightaway and saw El Nino go flying, not quite sure who it was that got him but you can see the air that both of them got.. I had another But i cant get it to upload..
Good times...man I was having too much fun I totally forgot to take some pics :razz: I'll remember next time. We should make this a match type for a Forza League :mrgreen:
There was one crash where i was tail gating behind cam on the straight and someone went head on into him and my car launched him 50 feet in the air lol Now that would have made for a great screen shot
Damn! I thought you guys were just doing some traditional racing. Had I read this when I played with you guys yesterday, I would have made time for it. COUNT ME IN FOR THE NEXT ONE! Sounds like a BLAST! I'm truly getting addicted to this game. We definately need to get something going here @ LG for this. *Army...This format is right up your alley. Go get this game!
Was it on the last race.. IF so i got the replay of it.. YOu just dont know how fun it is .. It's a win win for everybody ... Either you keep competeing for the crown or you get the thrill of Bashing the guys that beat you..
Guys, It looks like you fellas enjoyed yourselves last night. I don't have the game yet but I will be purchasing it and I would love to join you. Did you play with just standard, available cars or were they ones that you had upgraded?
We played with standard cars. We all chose the same car. But for those going the oposite way and causing carnage, chose what ever car they wanted since they were not in the race anymore.
Everybody racing forward raced with the same car... The guys going backwards got to pick which car that they wanted to defend against.. Which we'll probably have to make sure that it is a standard car.. That way we dont have guys chasing down the guys running forward with ease... EDITED: The first series of Races.. WE went with the Lotus Espirit V8.. (B); And the 2nd.. Ferrari 355 Challenger (A)
