Forza Motorsport 8 - Pitting Guide

Pitting Guide for Forza Motorsport 8

What is Pitting?

In Forza Motorsport 8, Featured Multiplayer includes pitting features that players must consider in their strategy. Short racing events may not require pitting most of the time. Long racing events, on the other hand, are a different story, as you may need to refuel or perhaps change your tires in order to finish or last in the race.

Refuel

It’s common knowledge that cars require fuel to function, and that is also applied in Forza Motorsport. If your car keeps on running, it will eventually empty its fuel tank. In order to avoid running out of fuel in the middle of the race, it is vital that you keep an eye on your fuel indicator and stop by the pit before it gets too low. Lastly, keep in mind that the fuel load affects your car’s body weight.

Change tires

In the new Forza Motorsports 8, they have added new tire compounds, which all have different grip qualities and durability. All tires will degrade over time, and some may wear out faster than others. This is why it is important to monitor the tire wear indicator displayed on the HUD. If your tire becomes yellow, it indicates that it is getting warm and may cause some changes while driving, and if they are red, it indicates that your tires are in bad condition and you may need to stop by the pits and change tires.

Repair damage

During a race, you may stumble upon other race cars or hit some walls, particularly on tracks that you are not familiar with. In the event that your car sustains significant damage, you can always pull into the pit and repair some of the damage in order to keep on racing.
