Bye Bye Blue


If there was anything I learned from driving the Bugatti EB 110 during this six race event in Forza Motorsport6, it's hold on to the reigns very tightly while riding this "cheval sauvage."

Despite having a four wheel drive system, my dream car from 1990-1995 put up a real fight when trying to be controlled during certain circumstances. Perhaps the game modeled in the tire technology of the time, which compared to today's standards, was still in the dark ages (not nearly as bad as the bias ply era of the 60's and 70's). It could be that I had a hard time finding that steering "sweet spot." Maybe the engine was just too powerful....

Whatever the issue was (me or the car, perhaps even a little of both), the white knuckle experience was an "fantaisie exaltante" come true from the start, if only in the virtual sense of it all.

The last race says it all....
