I'd say hit me up sometime, but I haven't renewed my XBL in a while...
If GT5 had the car selection and engine sounds of Forza (when they have the Porsche license) it would be the better game by far. Graphics and physics are so much more realistic in GT. Why can't they just join forces already?

hmmn i was actually thinking of going out for a drive on Redwood Rd (and maybe out to Oakland to check out that Harbor BBQ site) but now maybe I'll just stay home and race/chat with you guys haha. though it's not nearly as fun when I'm the only one with a headset and everyone else is silent LOL.

Never had one, but I'm guessing my BT earphones for my phone would work right?

Does it have a mic in it as well, or is it just headphones?

But yeah any BT headset normally used with a cell phone will work.

Yep, I am basically using an extra Bluetooth headset for a phone.

Hey guys, I have a wild and crazy idea that you can feel free to shoot down. Haha
I've created a new custom course using the course maker that approximates the kind of drives we do in the East Bay Hills, like Patterson Pass or mines Road. Just for kicks we could drive as a group virtually through the course during a race, but not actually racing just driving single file like we do in real life. That way we can capture it on replay and then we have a virtual movie of us driving the same way we do in real life! Let me know if you guys are up for trying that, at least for one race or a few laps. Then we can go onto real racing.

The Fremont BART station is a ghost town. It's super scary waiting for my bus there. I feel like I'm in Silent Hill since all of the people that are not there for our work bus are walking slowly like zombies because they were confused why BART was closed. lol.
