Well Hello There Fellow Gamers And Hivers!
I'm back with another scramble around "Mulege Town" in nothing other than my special "2017 Ford Focus RS"
Damn guys I know most out there really doesn't have any love for Ford at all but this little Focus of mine can run like hell!
This race was part of the WILDS tournament that Forza held, I'm not exactly sure how all these tournaments work yet. Perhaps I should just have a sit down and figure these things out, although I might have to buy a few of the DLC's that I am really not keen on doing at all.
To My Surprise.
I didn't even realize this until I was halfway into the race!
After noticing the car is really sluggish and not as nippy as it used to be, it also didn't have that scary rumbling screech to it! Then I noticed I jumped into the wrong Ford! See I have two of them and both of them are in the same colour, so I can see where the confusion came into play!
To my luck I still managed to gain first place within the first lap that I finished! What a move hey!
It's Never Uncontested.
Now that is one thing I know to be true!
Don't ever think that once you're in first place you have no contesting left! There is always someone willing to creep up behind you and gut from the back! ALWAYS!
Which is exactly what happened with this race!
Just before finishing the second lap I was passed by the HONDA and none other than the infamous CIVIC!
Making Impatient Mistakes.
Once someone passes you and you were under the impression that you'd be the victor of that race, well let me tell you that can send some bolts splinting up your spine!
That feeling of falling behind and trying to regain what ground you lost is more than often a losing battle. Especially if you start panicking, which is what I did!
The panicking made me fall even more behind and that caused me to make some more errors, like this one where I missed my checkpoint! I had to use a rewind for the first time in a long time and usually I'd just restart the race!
I sucked it up and used it this time around! Hey it gave me the win I needed!
Remember To Keep On Gaming Like You've Only Got One Life Left!
