I won't be able to get on til after the baby goes to bed (about 10pm EST), but if you're still racing at that time I'll join up. Be sure to use the settings in the OP so that you can simulate Sunday night's race conditions as closely as possible. If you're off by then, I'll just go to my lounge to practice. dvdoughboy will be practicing with me at that time as well.
Check out your s2ki.com profile. I just added a comment

Diabolique uses a controller and aerial view? Damn. That's real good. Maybe I'll be better trying that than this stupid g27

translation:
I've got an enduro @ 10EST that should last just an hour. I'll be up for a bit of racing thereafter.

For any of my friends, I've shared my favorite test track if you'd like to use it. Anello Italiano is 5.15 miles of twisting Toscana asphalt. I'm thinking of using it friday...but we'll see

I saw that you left comment on the profile.... I guess you own a S2000 too?

Thanks for your interest. One of the reasons we decided to switch to a non-tuning league was to make it more accessible for those who either don't have time to tune or simply don't know how to tune. But mostly, it was to make the battles for position more intense. I sent you a friend request. Welcome to the league!

I'll be downloading it. Always up for more tracks. Hate getting stuck on the same ones.
Here's hoping Silverstone and Long Beach make it in as dlc!

Thanks for letting me practice with you all last night.I learned that you all are a lot better than me.So let know one tell you that you're slow.I feel if I was to race Sunday with you I'd just slow you down,or God forbid cost someone the race.No need for you to have another obstacle to overcome on the track.
For now due to medication,my lack of experience,and other handicaps I'll sit out.I'll follow the thread,run the cars and tracks you all do against the AI drivers for the practice.Good luck to everyone on Sundays race.

I didn't find you in the way at all Alleycat22469, in fact I thought you were driving well and everyone makes mistakes
The only way to gain experience is to get on the track. Maybe run ultra conservative for the first couple till you settle in. Then start going wheel to wheel with diabolic 👍

I agree 100%. Last night's racing was awesome. Tuning-Prohibited races FTW!

I agree 100% with you as well, kcheeb.
alleycat,
You raced with us the entire night and not once did I feel like you were slowing anyone down. Your pace was good and you drove clean. I'm not sure what else I could ask for from a league member (other than a mic lol). But in all seriousness, I would take it as a personal defeat if you felt that you weren't good enough to race with us. Please look at the title of this thread. After the name of our league, the first words are "beginner-friendly". That means even n00bs are welcome as long as they drive clean, and you are definitely much better than a n00b.
Furthermore, as kcheeb mentioned, you will never get better at racing humans (or cyborgs like diabolic) if you don't actually spend time doing it. Racing against AI will never improve your racing skills against human competition. There isn't any AI in the world that is good enough to do that, and GT5's AI is far from the best anyways.

Hey SaGa, it's not dlc, but a user generated track.
diabolic has it shared so we can download it and possibly use it for Fun Friday.

Actually, diabolic hosts "Fun Fridays" in the open lobby so that people outside our league can join as well. Keep an eye on this thread on Friday night for the room number. Who knows, maybe we'll find good additions to our league during these open lobby nights 👍

Appreciate it. I was in a practice session last night with another snail, I'll tell you what, that BMW on tm/reverse is hella fun! Solid choice!
