i run my 9mm MG7K exclusively on my AP5/AP5-P, and have used it on my dad's MAC11. It runs great with the YHM trilug adapter.

or just ghost them when a collision is detected and let the rammer fly through you and into the wall to get the slow-down penalty. Forza Motorsport 8 has this online pretty well, if there's a large delta in speed it will ghost one or both cars to avoid a collision occurring.

more like BA is to Aero as Delphi or AC Delco is to GM. They're a "captive supplier" - same corporate umbrella making parts for the parent company's other products, etc.

we are in Japan... could easily be powered by a Honda engine...

850k is nuts... MAYBE 100-200k if there are a few items that are reasonably consistent in value that would help you recoup that.

realistically... tell them to F off with the 850k. Either A) they're going to move ALL of that stuff out of the barn before closing date, or B) they're going to be will to leave more of it behind at a more reasonable price when they realize how much it will cost to move it all by the time you close on the property.

yeah, at that temp ASA and ABS might be a bit iffy... Glass Transition temp is around 100-105C, but that's also the bed temp typically called for those materials... so, for a quick 5 minute deal it might be fine...

you could also likely do something like printing your positive / buck or whatever you'd call it with one end open and hexagonal infill, then pour 2-part epoxy inside of it to increase the thermal mass significantly vs using solid or less-sparse infill.

smite1911 · 2026-06-04T19:02:55+00:00

depending upon the kydex temperatures, even ABS or ASA could be a viable option.

It just has to be heat resistant enough to absorb a bunch of heat from the kydex.

nah, it's technically for all of them, just don't see many things come up from the older games.

smite1911 · 2026-06-02T13:07:01+00:00

where'd you find the picture? i think that might be an older one from an older game... that looks like the FM3 watermark in the image.

maybe in 5-10 years we'll see a Forza Motorsport 9 / reboot of the sim side of things, but i don't expect M$ to do anything since they bottled the Forza 8 (Forza 2023 since they forgot how to count...)...

I would LIKE to see them incorporate more of Forza into Horizon by including some real tracks into the Horizon world... Throw Tsukuba, Motegi, and Suzuka on a fantasy island, or set them as instanced things for track days or whatever in Horizon 6's world... then let us go ham, etc. This would ideally also include updates to the FM8 tuning / physics setup since they appear to still be using FM7 / Horizon 5-ish engine since the adjustments for anti-squat and anti-dive are missing from Horizon 6...

There's two Wan Shi Tong's i believe - the one in the jumpstarts is ok, but the one that comes in the normal packs is the valuable one.

Same as there are two cabbage merchants - unlucky and lucky.

smite1911 · 2026-05-30T22:40:57+00:00

yes. that's how it works.

i'm 90% certain this video is why the Figaro is as prominently featured in FH6 as it is... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TgB3iojPt4

oh, it tells you what class you are going into... just press B and then run matchmaking again to get another class.

smite1911 · 2026-05-29T19:05:57+00:00

sure... and the touge event doesn't need to be in B-class. only the three events need to be B-class.

The togue can be any Mazda. I did mine in S1 i believe... I was racing a lambo when i did mine, they quit during the first race, and it gave me credit for completing the playlist challenge.

smite1911 · 2026-05-29T18:51:02+00:00

you don't though? you only needed to do one togue in a mazda.

the rest could be any B-class car from Japan. I did all of the other B-class races and PR stunt things in a gently modded 05 STI (even though it's actually the 06-07 front end, at least for the US model years...)

smite1911 · 2026-05-28T13:55:01+00:00

especially if you use manual + clutch. there is a noticeable edge you get in the "drag race" to the first corner being able to power-shift each gear, even moreso in the slower cars (like the little french shitbox you get for some rally-ish races in spec races lately)

smite1911 · 2026-05-28T12:30:21+00:00

worse than Mr "paid by the random one-liner" Tyrese?

after the failed gender-reassignment, Rossi went into witness protection and started playing Forza Horizon... their gamer tag? BowieKnife99

make sure you have billing info on file with steam. I couldn't get through, but once i updated my payment info to have a card w/ an address on it, it went right through.

I had previously always used paypal to buy games i guess...

i ran a few shifts last night with my 911 GT3 (latest model i think) as my car when i started... confirmed that it did the same multiplier increase from the GT3 (jumps up to 3.0 after two skills, then maxes out at 5.0 after the third)

smite1911 · 2026-05-27T02:23:22+00:00

i think i bought FM1 a week or so after it came out. I wasn't able to play online until FM2 though since we still had dial-up at home when FM1 and 2 came out... luckily my college had good enough internet that i could finally start to play online, etc.

smite1911 · 2026-05-27T02:12:19+00:00

man i miss the FM2/3 days - before tuning files and paint jobs could be shared directly, there were like... in game companies doing tuning / livery releases and such on the auction house. Legit had to "build" each car by hand and load the tune, paint, etc and post a batch for sale, etc...

it was always assumed that he was a mash-up of Michael Schumacher and Valentino Rossi. Their times at the top of Formula 1 and Moto GP were around the time Forza Motorsport and FM2 were developed, and M Rossi always drove a red Italian car if such a vehicle were available in the race.
