Here is a new article I saw while looking at NeoGaf sorry if old info here. Anyways though, this game never stops amazing me. I can not wait to play it. I just wish it would release already. I tried to post the whole article but Gamespot would not let me. It is a great read though and more info of godlyness for Forza.

Here is the article

Why just eight? Won't they all be the same speed pretty much except with different paint? If they wanted to put them in, shouldn't they have put most of them in and made a special V8 racing section. How many cars can race on a track in Forza?

V8 Supercars Australia Chairman Tony Cochrane commented, "V8 Supercars is recognised globally as the best touring car Championship on the planet and being included in the internationally acclaimed Forza 3 is testament to that."

lol is that for real? I wouldn't go out and call it the 'best' and i'm aussie, apart from Bathurst..I love Bathurst..oh man, i love bathurst.. I hope they put it in Gran Turismo..i'm praying.

Yeah but hopefully it works out well...the V8 supercars Race Driver was pretty good..This should be better..

Ford and Holden use Different V8s and they do sound different ever so slightly..with the ford Engine imo sounding more meaty, though i agree on everything else Bathurst is one amazing race....

oh yeah, it's just...they're pretty much around the same speed, performance etc. Just the name. So it's pretty much putting in 8 cars that are exactly the same, with different paint. I guess GT having more than like 30 skylines is pretty much the same....

They placed rules in to stop Nissan racing just because they were getting beaten by them.

Great news! Hopefully this almost confirms the inclusion of the Bathurst track. There was a blue mountains track (very similar to Bathurst) in the first Forza game. Wish they didn't remove it from Forza 2.

The original Forza had Pontiac GTO. This is nothing new.

True but those were the days when they used Factory Engines and tuned them up to race spec These days A V8 Supercar (sources special races engines from the US) would have no trouble dealing with a Standard Nissan GTR up speced. But don't this wrong i love GTRs and they would kill Normal HSVs and FPVs, but then again they kill porches and M3s so it's nothing really to be ashamed of lol

Is there even going to be a V8 supercar cup or championship. If there is why wouldn't they put V8 supercar tracks in them.

No point putting V8's in if they don't do it properly.

As of now, I give the idea two thumbs down. However, if bathurst is hidden in the game somewhere it gets two thumbs up.

You want my thumbs turn 10. You have to earn them.

To bad in the real thing there is far more than 8 cars in a race and Turn 10 are to lazy to get any of the tracks they actually race one.
