Forza Motorsport Challenge II

Alright. So I figured I should make a post 'cause it's been about a million years since I've done so. So I'm putting this blog to good use by posting a little contest. I don't know how many of you know this, but I like to play video games. One of the video game genres that I enjoy is Driving Games. The driving game of choice at the moment is Forza Motorsport on my Xbox. Now another bit of trivia that not all of you may know is that a number of my irresponsible male type friends also enjoy playing video games on their Xboxes. And so I am here to issue challenges to get these people driving in Forza and posting times. Anyone who can log some time on Forza is welcome to participate.

Forza Motorsport Challenge I has concluded. Not that you shouldn't post a time in comments, but I'm moving on to the next challenge. The old challenge was any class D car on Maple Valley (the 2.98 mi track, not the shorter one), in 'hot lap' mode. No mods on the car, and after the first lap you'll have a running start. Results came up like this:
  • Matt - 1:48.361 in the Peugeot 206 Gti 180
  • Chris - ~2:02 in I don't remember what car
  • Jesse - 1:49 in the Audi TT
  • Marc - 1:50.746 in the Peugeot 206
  • Adam - 1:46.278 in the Peugeot 206
To be fair, Chris doesn't actually own an Xbox, and made his time screwing around at my house one evening. I was suprised that the Peugeot did so well, my time on it was way better than in the 2 or 3 other likely cars I tried in Class C. Thanks for participating, guys.

Now that that's out of the way here's Forza Motorsport Challenge II:

Lancer EVO vs. WRX STi
In the comments post a time for both the Class C 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII GSR and the Class C 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STi on the Blue Mountains Raceway II track. Also, discuss which you prefer in tha game.

Challenges I and II have been 'hot lap' and no mods on the car for the sake of those who haven't progressed super far through the game yet, and might not have the game money to be buying and hotroding cars. Eventually I want to have a 'tune this car the best' type contest, so let me know how your in-game bank account is lookin, 'k?

Right about now my wife is thinking 'this is what I get for encouraging him to post on the blog.' =D

Actually, I'm thinking, "This title isn't alliterative."
