August Playseat Forza 4 Pack

Who else is pumped for the newest pack of cars for Forza Motorsports 4 on the Xbox 360? I cannot wait for this pack to drop tomorrow (August 7) on the Xbox Live store. The new pack will be available for 560 Microsoft Points and include a few of my favorite cars from the new release.

I personally could not be more excited about the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, the 2013 Boss 302 Mustang or the 2013 Scion FRS (which I have pushed for for a few months). Check out the full list below and the trailer for the latest pack.

  • 2012 Chevolet Camaro ZL1
  • 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302
  • 2013 Scion FR-S
  • 2003 Aston Martin DB7 Zagato
  • 1962 Lincoln Continental
  • 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track
  • 1984 Peugeot 205 T16
  • 1989 Mercedes Benz #63 Team Sauber-Mercedes C9
  • 1962 Triumph TR3B
  • 2013 Lexus GS350 F Sport


Be sure to keep your eye out for the new pack. This is bound to be worth the 560 points.

Allmendinger Out At Penske Racing

Is some not-so-shocking news today, Penske Racing has announced that it is parting ways with the suspended AJ Allmendinger. Allmendinger was suspended before the July Daytona race a few weeks ago for testing positive in a random drug screening the week before. Allmendinger also tested positive in a second drug test last week (click here for that story).

While no parties wants to discuss the substance, ESPN is reporting it was an amphetamine. The doctor who does the testing for NASCAR says it is not likely for any over-the-counter items to test positive in the test.

Allmendinger has entered the NASCAR "Road To Recovery" program to work his way back to the track. He is taking the more noble path compared to the only other Sprint Cup driver who has failed the test, Jeremy Mayfield.

Sam Hornish Jr, who has an extensive history with Penske, will be in the #22 Pennzoil Dodge at least for this week at Pocono while Penske evaluates future options.
