Beosha here...

GamerTag Beosha, real name Ken, and I don't answer to "hey, you!". I live in southeastern Pennsylvania, and am probably well above the average age of our members at 51.

I've been playing Forza since version 2, and have played various other racing sims as well. I've done some amateur motor sports, but, well, "other sports beckoned."

I have a preference for well-prepared cars in the lower classes and like wheel-to-wheel racing rather than drifting, drag, or "car games" like tag and soccer. Not that there's anything wrong with those amusements, they just don't float my boat.

I m pretty much the same way with racing ... i love a good close race without people using me as a rail or temporary wall for them to ride around like skateboard or using my rear bumper as a braking assist lol ... conversely, i do enjoy a little cat mouse every now and again ... or tuning crappy looking cars and putting a boat load of horsepower in them ... I love it when my Nissan Micra finishes ahead of a Mclaren or Ferrari ... ahhhh ... adds a nice touch haha ... im lookin forward to racing with ya ..

"The bodywork on *my* car is not there to help *you* get around the track faster." While contact *will* occur in close races, it should be incidental and accidental...

Lol Nicely put

For an example of "incidental and accidental" taken a bit too far, see the start of any race in career mode. Often I find that I must accept that some idiot AI is going to hit me, and just position myself so I'm not damaged, pushed off the track, etc. But the rubbing in turn 1, absent the hit as the AI uses your bumper to stop, is not usually what I would call unsportsmanlike.

Sounds like I am a couple of months behind you at 50. Perhaps there should be senior section ;-)

Here's hoping I do not suffer any "senior moments" on track.
