    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.. ?

    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!

    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)
