Just in case you are more into racing games than all the Halo 3 hype, Microsoft has released a new car pack for Forza Motorsport 2 for just 400 Microsoft Points.

What better way to break from counting down the hours until Halo 3 than to get behind the wheel of more than 10 brand new racers and muscle cars in a downloadable car pack for “Forza Motorsport 2,” available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace this weekend.

To get fans warmed up, we’re offering a rally inspired hot little European hatch the 2007 SEAT Leon Cupra as a FREE download to bolster the already extensive collection of “Forza” racers.

For 400 Microsoft points, Forza fans can own the track taking laps in 10 great vehicles including a race ready turbo diesel (the Audi R10) and a low performance class inline 4 that’s an absolute tuner’s dream (the Honda Civic Si Coupe).  Show your muscle with an American classic, the 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T or turn it up another notch behind the wheel of the 415 horsepower, 8,400 rpm 2007 Porsche GT3 RS.
