Would be good to do some live racing with fellow WRS'ers. I'm usually on and racing online most weekday evenings and most of the day saturdays if I'm not up to anything else (I drive a Mini so I'm usually fixing something at the weekends lol).

GTP_Super_T - Division 3

Looks like there's a lot of us from div 3. :D
 
I have this so far for the Div 1 contestants (we can easily add to this as more folks join):

PSN ID ----------- GTPlanet ID ------ Country
GTP_w-g-e ------- w-g-e ------------ Netherlands
GTP_Sutuki ------- Sutuki ------------ Finland
GTP_PASM -------- PASM ------------ Netherlands
GTP_Wayne ------- WayneGTC ------- France
GTP_cicua -------- cicua ------------ Denmark
GTP_CICO -------- GTP_CICO -------- Holland
GTP_wayna ------- boediebouer ------ South Africa
GTP_Rutter200 ---- Rutter200-VR46 --- UK

GTP_Sureshot ----- Sureshot --------- USA - CA
GTP_LinPark ------- LinPark ---------- USA - FL
GTP_Worst_Driver - LIL_KACHING ----- Canada
GTP_Jump_Ace ---- Jump_Ace -------- USA - OR

GTP_aussienicko --- AUSnicko9 ------- Australia
GTP_Animera ------ Animera ---------- New Zealand

I've tried to group these by rough timezones (forgive me if I've grouped you in the wrong area since I'm an American and we tend to be the least globally knowledgable people in the world :lol: ). I am willing to race at odd hours so we have larger grids. Look for a PM from me and let's see if we can get some times setup to race - I will be sending each of you a Friend Request soon as well.

Thanks to Phil for putting all of this together! :cheers:
 
GTP_DENIS Division 3 Silver.

PLEASE PUT-ME IN!

Hi Denis.

Thanks for joining in and welcome to GTP.

Please try to remember not to double post, I know sometimes we make mistakes, but Admin like you to use the EDIT button, bottom right of any of your posts.

If you are the last person to post could you use that, if someone else has posted after you its then ok to make a new post, hope that info helps you.

Phillip.

Edit: A little info about your location may also help others with your time zone for racing, plus anything else you think may be useful.
 
Put me down....but not sure I'm ready for online....plus time differences may be troublesome.

GTP_DDiamond.......Div 5..........USA

"Very simple settings same as WRS for that week, just as an ice breaker plus you don’t have to go buying new car or tyres for the race."

I guess I'm a little slow on the uptake here, but the WRS with this car was Arcade. Wouldn't one have to buy this car to run online or am I missing some info in the thread?

No because if you've not already got it, you can find it in the recommended garage online, which is set to 142bhp and 1130Kg weight.

The only hard work you have to do is put Sport Hard tyres on it, then turn off SRF as per the setting for week 4 WRS.

I know I'm not the brightest button in the sawing box and I do make many mistakes from time to time.

If you find any problem with any of the settings or combos please do the research first then tell me, but I'm glad you brought that up for other members to see if they dont have the car already.

One more point to help all divisions to find members in their own time zones to race online with, I'll start a chat room called IDOR there will be no password for this room.

GTP_IDOR CHAT ROOM

Please come along and chat to others in your divisions fixing times/dates get to know who your racing with, all hepls to promote this great website your a member of.

Edit: Almost forgot about this doing the above reply dont forget to check out OMRS April 2nd I'll be there in support again, hope more of you do too.

Phillip.

Yes Dennis, Make any helpful info posts you like its all our event.

It is in the race details "Very simple settings same as WRS for that week"

Here is the LINK again.

Over the last couple of days I've been testing this out with others, had about 6 races now and they are good fun. Close door to door stuff most of the time, and you have to take the oppertunity to overtake when it comes along, but without knocking the other guy off line.

So please stick to the OLR and you'll enjoy it.

The loss of battery may catch one or two out so watch your right foot :crazy:

It was a popular turn out for this WRS week 105 I think, so I hope this will be popular too.

I hope to see more trying this out pre event race.

Phillip.


What i trying to say. To make this clear, obvious and easy to find. Copy/past this in the race post (so everybody don't have to look back what the tires rules was, cos not everybody can remember)

• Mode: Arcade Mode : Time Trial
• Track: Original Circuits > Cape Ring South
• Car Type: Arcade Only > Premium
• Make: Japan > Spoon Sports
• Model: CR-Z




Vehicle Specifics:


• Power: 146 HP (Stock)
• Weight: 1130 kg (Stock)
• Transmission: Optional
• Skid Recovery Force Aid: OFF (Those Found using this Aid will be DQ'd) - Be Careful - The Setting for This Aid is Whatever You Used Last - Be sure it's set to 'Off'
• Tyre Type: Sports Hard (S1's)
• Other Aids (Traction Control, Active Steering, and ASM): Optional
• Grip Reduction on Track Edge: Optional
• Mechanical Damage: Optional
• Controller Steering Sensitivity: Optional
• In Event Tuning Settings: Optional (If Available)



And copy/past everything to the opening post aswell. So for the people who don't look at the thread regularly, don't have to look through pages to find the post with the current race. Just my 2 cents to make things easier for everybody.


Maybe i jump in the electric Spoon after my DTM race with the dutch communtiy.

Thanks to GTP_LinPark and GTP_Pasm for showing the way with two Division 1 rooms open last night, I really thought that div 1 was going to be the hardest div to crack, how wrong was I. :bowdown:

If others in your Divison have half the get up and go as you two your online racing will be fantastic. 👍

As there was nobody replying to my post I went along and spectated in GTP_Pasm (Bart) room, I watched the fisrt two races, brilliant stuff, GTP_W-g-e well deservse he's placing in Div 1 watching his performance.

Because the room was practice only I asked the room host (Bart) if I may join and was invited in to race, what great fun that was, I await Bart's video to be posted in this thread.

Thanks to African Kat for the pictures, they paint a 1000 words 👍

GTP_Wayna (Wayne) and GTP_pk_090 (Alex) what can I say, the time spent on WRS each week lap after lap pushing the car / track combo to the limit is invaluable when racing online, top tip to all members keep running WRS it pays off.

last thing dont forget it's OMRS this weekend.

Phillip.

Kind words from you Philip. Thank you for explaining what IDOR is all about. I really hope we get more races like this. Online racing and WRS are two of my favourite things to do in GT5 and you've combined them. Great idea.

Thanks to Bart for putting a room up and thanks to all others for the racing last night. At first I thought this can't be fun to race, but it turned out to be really fun, close racing.

Nice pictures African Kat.👍 That one was a great race. 5 drivers competing for the number 1 spot.

Today is OMRS time, hope to see you there.:)

An easy way to find members in you own division to race with, if your new and haven’t seen it yet you can send multiple pm’s in one go. Or if you’re a long term member and not done it yet.
Go to your private messages, in the send to box copy paste 20 GTP_Tags from members in your own division separate like so using the ‘;’

Division list Post #1

GTP_DGiant2000;GTP_Vagabond;GTP_A7XMaverick;GTP_Rikson;GTP_Roomboter;GTP_Plato


Add your message:
Hi I’m John GTP_Tag live in the US time zone (what ever)
I can race Sundays only any time from time(what ever) to (what ever)
If you live in the US too or within a sensible racing time zone give or take 5/6 hours would you like to meet up and race in the GTP_IDOR event.

I see from the list where I got your tag from, you must be game to give it a go, looking in the thread some races have all ready been run, great pictures from African Kat of one race.👍
Or what ever you would like to put in your message.

Pretty simple takes about 5 minutes to do, and who knows you may have someone living right next door.
Hope this helps and you get to enjoy the event.

unofficial GTPlanet Inter Divisional Online Racing by Eriba
Round 1 - Spoon CR-Z @ Cape Ring South


A race report from one of the first races from this combo, raced last friday 1-4-2011. Let this inspire you and host sessions for your division too. It's a really good combo!
As you can see it turned out to be a race full of close racing, one of the closest racing I've ever seen. I've had a lot of fun. Thanks for the awesome race guys!!! 👍👍👍
Edit: nice pictures African Kat 👍

Drivers: GTP_w-g-e, GTP_wayna, GTP_african_kat, GTP_pk_090, GTP_Eriba, GTP_PASM

Wow thanks Bart realy nice videos, was great fun too, hope to do so soon again.

Just one thing i see that there is a bit of lagging going on with my car, so if it is a problem for you guys please tell me.

Keep up the good work Bart.

Thanks Wayne
 
First of all a big thanks to Bart for the great video’s, if there were just 10 members with the same get up and go as you, along with others (Andy, Lin, Wes, Kat, Wayne, Ali) this will turn into a good extension of WRS. We’re not going to run all past races from WRS just the ones that we think are entertaining enough to race online, mix them in with our own or requested races, it should be like you say an event worth taking part in.

Here is a list of the first four races in this round of the event.

Spoon CR-Z Cape Ring South on going; WRS week 4 there was good interest in this week with 105 submissions, this first race will continue to give members of each division lots of time to find members in their own division to race with.

GT300 Deep Forest; this is by request and will follow once main races have been completed and times entered.

Audi FT565 Rome Circuit; another popular race in WRS week 3 with 111 submissions.

Classic Pre 1970 Nurbur, Nordschleife or Nascar could be Road Course Indy / Daytona / or other.
Thoughts or input welcome.

Once all four races are complete (times entered from one main race only) prises will be awarded for the most wins in each division 1st / 2nd / 3rd for now, as this will take me some time to complete.

Don’t forget you can race/practice as many times as you like, invite any members from other divisions to join you and have some fun like we did as you can see from Bart’s video / pictures from Kat.

I’ll try to open a lobby room or my lounge as often as I can for you to join, or you can come to the online chat room GTP_IDOR and find others to race online with.

Then we’ll move onto the four races in round 2 of the event.

Phillip.
 
Thanks you Philip for choosing all my favourite weeks.:D

Great videos Bart. I can see my car was lagging a bit in the first half of the race. Tell me if it's happening again please.
