Forza 3 SUV racing

Here is linkhe tease continues with this newest release of Forza 3 images, but this time they contain something we never expected -- SUVs. And here we thought only irresponsible teens raced BMW X5s and Land Rovers.

Back in the day you used to be able to roll around in a Dodge Ram 1500 in Gran Turismo 4, but this is taking four-wheelin' to a whole new level. Seriously, how well can a big lug like these luxo-utes handle and why on Earth would you have any interest in racing them in a video game?

Thankfully, this wasn't the only update that Turn 10 provided us today as we now know we'll have the opportunity to drive the Pontiac G8 GXP forever and pretend that GM never killed it. Phew!

I can not wait to see these fully customized with some crazy artwork and being flipped in races. AS much as I sick of the non-gameplay pics I thought these were pretty cool though.

*drools* :D

We can finally settle the Range Rover Sport vs X5 4.6i debate :)

Sweet. How about a game of cat and mouse where the mice are SUVs and the cats are teams of Mini Coopers.

I was thinking the opposite. Larger vehicle = Cat, smaller ones = Mice.

No doubt that'll be a popuplar game mode, but I was grinning at the thought of a team of Mini Coopers trying to put an SUV into the wall.

As much as I like trucks and sport-utes, I don't see a place for them in a road-race game.

how many roll overs will there be :D ?Tjeremiah1988

None, they have Dynamic Rollover Prevention, or Dynamic Rollover Stability Control, and plus if you don't apply the brake, the car will brake for you when you come up behind another car :P

Smashing them head first into each other at top speed to see who comes out on top?

It'll be like the colosseum, only with SUVs instead of gladiators.

Thanks for the info.

It would be pretty boring racing them, but customizing them would be hella fun

I hope they have Jeep, Dodge, GM, Ford & Chevy SUV's and Trucks too.

Yeah, I think it is, an SRT-8 Grand Cherokee, stock, does 0-60 in 5 seconds.

to each their own, i suppose.

I'm going to pit the Cayenne Turbo S against an STi and see who is victorious. :D

Oh, and since everyone's throwing in their brands, I hope the XC90 makes it in the game, along with a good chunk of Volvo's line.

I'm excited for it, should make for some fun times.

It might bepretty fun racing these big cars together, Thats kinda my specialty anyways, I'm good at heavycars. Should make for good minigames, and lots of fun onsome tight technical tracks.

Low corner speeds usually means good racing.

I can already imagine me and my friends doing Soccer Mom Road Rampage Races :P

Don't care for racing SUVs but looks goodCouth_

I agree..

I don't care for it..But I look forward to the challenge of setting them up...I hope they offer a -20" ride height adjustment;)

It's better than formula one or something, were they are always all strung out and a single pass is like amazing.Tobin09

:evil:

Lets not go that far..;)

While they're not necessarily appreciated for their racing abilities, it's still a nice addition and adds another layer of game to try and master.

That Range Rover looks freakin' sweet. So what else do they need?

Oh yeah baby 8)

It's times like these you know who are the real racing fans :P.

I think though that Forza is concentrating on production models and their racing ilk as opposed to specialization such as Formula One.

Great. Ill finally get my Range Rover!! :D

IncludingSUVs is one step. But if Forza 3 wants to achieve the title of racing game of forever, it needs more of this.
