| Did a brief trial run with 2 people, one left early, I have a 2 year old up now. Crazycanuck and shaymin, thanks, input is welcome. I prefer to keep it slow so if it was to slow sorry, when we run 8 deep my hopes are we can stay close and enjoy the scenary. I liked it but at one point one of u choose to go way faster then my little 71 datsun wanted and that I planned to go. To each there own. If it was to slow your welcome to go start another drive, there are a few interested in these so I don't know if 7 slots is enough. Please give it a try and move on if it's not your thing, I like opinions, speeding is just one thing my drive is no going for. It's a chance to check out our rides while driving and look around and the scenary. If u feel the need to downshift passing is fine just back off and allow the group to maintain it's casual speed. I think it has potential with a full room. Just play your road trip soundtrack and relaxe, it was fun despite the very small short drive, it was a trial run to see if I know what I'm doing lol. | |

| We tried, now u see what I mean by slow, I picked it up in the end a little for liquidchaos. My goal was to see the scenary and drive safe....no wall banging, something a random room won't offer. If it's not your thing ignore my invites, I doubt I will have power sunday for like 5 days or less. Opinions are welcome, I will continue to offer this occasionally.
Also I have no mic, faintly listen to music, my kid is asleep so I keep it way down and can't hear your mics at all. I prefer no mics unless the majority wants them on. I typically run stock cars with wheels/paint/suspension mods so it's controlable in low gears taking off. Now those who join know what u get, it's a alternative to non stop flooring it. I need breaks from racing, I can do this solo but why not have a few people if it's there thing. I totally get if it bored u, it's a break from the racing for me on the game. | |

| Yeah I never lost power, couldn't of planned it out, really surprised but they had our forecast wrong. We just got steady rain, still do have it and we have 20-30mph wind with a few 40mph+ gusts. Nothing major. Sorry for missing turns my wife was up still talking away and walking in front of me a lot lol. I drove a little faster then I planned but it worked. | |

| Haha. It was all good bro. Sesh was quite fun. Would be awesome with a full lobby. Liked the fact that we drove to the different outposts n swapped cars if we needed. I think you should lead the pacc n set the pace of the cruise like yesterday,that way you can switch up speeds when need be and still allow the others to leap frog at the slower speeds. Really lookin forward to the next one.haha | |

| The first officially planned night will be tomorrow night at 9pm eastern(USA -5hrs) I will set the game as an endurance challenge but we will cruise slow. U earn miles and don't lose them if it's on endurance so one day we each will accomplish it so no reason not to set it up.
I might play tonight but j just don't want to plan it and bail, depends on the wife an all, she's pregnant so she's in charge lol, she might want to play borderlands co op with me. | |

| That's awesome that you and your wife play video games together. Wish I could get mine to do that. Depending on how late you're cruising tomorrow night, I might be on. | |

| Yeah, tons of fun! I'd much rather be cruising with a bunch of you guys than be racing / bashing around. Sorry if I bashed into anyone, I really didn't mean to. I'll definitely be up for another cruise like the one we had tonight! | |

| Maybe Sunday night or next week at some point, I thought about it, I dont want it nightly so it has a little build up to it and wont go stale fast. Just watch for invites around 9pm(eastern), if I play I will probably try to get more cars the next few nights. I need some modern american, I have mostly european, japanese and classic muscle right now but zero modern american so I might grab a mustang and get some more cars.
BTW I quit the room, did it allow anyone to take over or just boot you all out? sorry I had no way to give heads up. | |

| You left, and then nobody really took control... It kind of fell apart, so I left, but I don't really know what happened after that... | |

As long as your in the club on forza(fhcc) I do a club invite through the game. It's first 7 in, sometimes people drop out but we ran 8 the other night consistently. I have no idea how many try and fail to get in. We did about an hour and a half, try to keep it slow but at points we opened it up, we stayed together for the most part and the gps allows others to catch up if they miss a turn. | |

| I think I jumped once to an outpost, so those PR stunts might cone in handy if you're joining a bit later, or have to drop out partway through . Other than that, I had tons of fun, and it's great that sleepy is organizing these cruises! | |
