Hi PTG Team Members & forum members,
A lot of you may know me already but I thought I will give you some more information about myself.
My name is Manny Kallianis. Better known online by my gamertag which is "PTG Greeksniper". I have been playing the forza franchise since the end of Forza 1. I've always been very competitive when it comes to any racing car games, from the Gran Turismo series to Asseto Corsa, rFactor, iRacing and more recently Project Cars.
I have also been a member of many different teams over the years and most of them involved the fastest drivers to ever play Forza. I started off in PpR in Forza 1 & 2, Forza 3 & 4 I moved over to AMG and then EMW (I was the original Team Leader & Founder) then R2P. In Forza 5 i joined the best team out of all of them which is this team PTG . The reason they are the best for me has nothing to do with speed or being the fastest leaderboard team. Its the amazing community we have here and the members are always willing to help each other out and we have a good mix of racers, tuners, painter, drifters and combined we are the best of the best.
A little bit about me now. I am 33 years old (getting old losing my reflexes a bit on Forza lol jokes I'm faster than ever) I live in Sydney, Australia with my beautiful wife Ellie (31 years old). No kids yet we are still practicing as I tell my parents lol.
My hobbies include playing games of course (FIFA and Forza mainly), I have also been drag racing professionally for the past 15 years. My current garage has 2 cars. My daily driver is my 700hp Toyota Soarer (Lexus SC300) with full 2JZGTE swap. It has run a best of 10.9@141mph in full street trim (spinning through 3rd lol) on street tyres and has destroyed a lot of exotics and sportscars on the street. It is a sleeper looks completely standard but destroys everything. To put in perspective how fast it is, I raced my friends brand new R35 GTR in a roll race from 100kph to around 250kph and put close to 10 car lengths on him.
Now that I have my slow car out of the way lol,Now over to my race car. It is Holden LJ Torana. This is a full on drag car. It is running a 427Ci COME Racing Stage 4 Engine, monster cam, alloy heads, full forged bottom end. It also has line locker, 9 inch Diff, 2 speed powerglide build with a 5500rpm stall converter. Estimated power is around 850hp to the tyres and has run a best of 9.3@151mph with the wheels in the air (no roll bars lol).
Whats awesome about Forza 6 for the first time ever both my Lexus SC300 and Holden Torana are in the game. (Torana is the wrong model but Ill take it lol). As many of my PTG Team members know I have never tuned on Forza ever until the end of Forza 5 I decided to try to learn. I usually ran other peoples tunes and adapted my driving style to suit the tune.
A bit of Forza history, back in Forza 2 the one year anniversary Turn 10 decided to award trophies out to the best of the best in each discipline. I was voted by Turn 10 as the worlds fastest driver in Forza which I felt was a huge achievement considering how many people use to play Forza 2.
I have also won 2 national Forza championships in Australia, 1 Gran Turismo national championship as well as countless Forza comps. Prize money I have won over $20,000 and $1000's of prizes as well. Still undefeated in all live competitions as well over the past 8 years.
If anyone needs some help or advice or wants me to test a tune for them on Forza 6 just send me a friend request on xbox to gamertag PTG Greeksniper and I will accept and we can discuss what help you need.
I am starting to feel like I have got my head around tuning finally in Forza 6. And i have started to build some cars (Mainly A Class for now), and have had huge success getting into the top 20 in non-leaderboard cars with my own builds and tunes.
