The GTHQ vs. GTP theme does not mean members of these forums or tagged drivers only, open to all!

But: please drive fair and clean as of the Online Racing Rules!
In the case of Fuji I would like to especially emphasize that the run-off areas are not to be used as they are not part of the track!

OLR say: two wheels on the track at all times!




In the black corner: GTHQ

is this event only for GTP+GTHQ drivers?
if not i would be very happy to participate even though i am not a tag driver
 
:lol: Nice one guys ๐Ÿ‘ Good to see I can leave my dirty white shorts on :sly: haha

Ren: Just to let you know - you misspelled "Battle" at the top of your post (unless you intentionally meant to spell it like that?) :cheers:

I'll have to try the 135 TTi as well. It would be cool to have two different choices of cars for this event, although the 135 is probably off pace from the M3 by about a second. I will try it over the weekend and let you know how they compare tough ๐Ÿ‘

Thanks for the Heads-up mate! Is of course open to all (clean) drivers, so you're game buddy!

Think I'll edit post 1 a bit so this valid question doesn't pop up again! ๐Ÿ‘

Edit: Finally halfway finished with Post 1..... phew.

First time updated as well! ๐Ÿ‘

Coming in now at 08 :D




Yo: just had the first awesome battle: 5 laps bumper to bumper with oldnai!!! sweeeeeeet ! Still like Fuji I must say! But I think I need to go on S2s....
Complaint tho: we were the only two out there! C'mon guys, get out the Bavarian horses!

Since nobodys posting anything another edit:
just became full all of the sudden, I think 4 GTPs and 3 GTHQ guys, or vice versa.... quite cool

And TA: thank you too for the heads up (no, was not on purpose, just rushed :ouch:)

Bet that guy in the SL55 felt like an idiot!! Great to see such a promising start. As on holiday, I'll be embarassing myself in my white shorts tomorrow!! thanks for the tune Clacksman ๐Ÿ‘

haha, just kidding with you nail. great driving from you sir!!
 
Damn this is good, just had another one with 8 M3s, 6 of which where bumper to bumper over a couple of laps!!! :) Think this might be something really good! Room, glad we finally got it sorted, and in such a sweet manner!!!

The old man is way past bedtime (couldnt resist running a few more LOL).

Thanks for the great races gents (and Lady)! ๐Ÿ‘ Seeya soon on track again!
 
I've just had my first online race in quite sometime in this event...

...and what a race to start back with, it was fantastic!!

This event lends itself perfectly for some real close, bumper to bumper action and I hope it continues to attract the large grids that I saw tonight, I know I'll be back tomorrow for more...this is great ๐Ÿ‘

Cheers for the great racing tonight, hope to see everybody again tomorrow!!
 
Some epic races tonight!
Thanks Ren, ElZISSOU, Crispy, Lacko, VR6 Club, Jos, oldnail, and the rest!๐Ÿ‘

i continue my testing at free time laps.
at last at 52's
my best 1'52'890(replay saved)
but i dont have a team (GTP or GTHQ)
so i will race probalby with my colour:):):)
see u tonight:tup:
 
Cool, now this type of event will peel me away from MW2 :) I'm going to do some tuning tonight and join in on the fun... I apologize in advance for any bumps, shunts or anything else that might happen since I havent been out on track for months! Any connection issues lately? I always had bad luck with Fuji when I tried the past couple of months.

Hey Oct, just to clarify, this is not really strictly an inter-forum event, that was the initial event outline but of course it's open to anybody as discussed. Even if it was purely inter-forum you'd still have your team: GTP. It says nowhere that you have to be "tagged", but since you're are member here you "should" hop into the white shorts :lol:

IMO it's not related to Fuji specifically. Last month at Suzuka wasnt much better anyways.... I had a few fails yesterday, and as far as I picked it up ono the chat a few others too now and then. But the majoridy of races worked out and were very rewarding. Besides that I noticed that 4 races per hour make a huge difference with regards to the waiting IF something goes wrong matching. Overall I think things have improved...
Seeya tonight! ๐Ÿ‘
 
GTP_Toivonen good race but your just that little bit to quick for me. ๐Ÿ‘

Phillip.

Sorry forgot double post. 10points away.
