MCRC *Luxury Mixer League* - Tour of Luxury Thursday 31st!

I'm in too. I'll try not to crash the 300C like the last time :D
:D You got the 300C on Pescara Reborn! It's amazing you did as well as you did until the crash. :lol:
IMZIZ will also be in the 300C for Tsukuba.
I can say from experience, the 300C is not too bad on Tsukuba! I know I could have done better in that race Sunday, had I not been distracted at an inopportune moment... and I wound up with a metal detector in my hand, trying to find my race lost in the sand. :( :rolleyes: :sly: :guilty: :dopey: :ouch: :lol:
Jack will be there
That's creepy, talking about oneself in the third person! :lol:
RDAardvark, we need to be more tolerant and accepting of our fellow racers who suffer from illeism.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
As long as Bob Dole doesn't join the Luxury Mixer, I think we're okay. :rolleyes:

At any rate, wat3rm370n punch will be there!

If it rains here I'll be early, if it's not raining, I'll arrive on time or a bit before. 👍

Whoever's first in the lounge - if you're early, make sure you set the lounge settings & regulations.
You might want to load the Pescara Reborn track so the peoples can get a bit of warm up on the custom track.
It's currently shared on the PSN: MCRC_Lounge , available shared for download. 👍

Oh so no event today? Makes sense. Mothers day and all. I was gonna have to leave early anyway. And are you guys not doing events on friday anymore?

Here's the schedule here:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?p=6993693#post6993693

We're on hiatus until Thurs the 24th.

Because today is mother's day & I'm heading to the MIL's for tonight.
And next weekend is my wedding reception.

So we'll pick back up on the 24th for that thursday, and then the sunday.

And hopefully eventually, a couple of people will be comfortable with hosting in future season. :D So there won't have to necessarily be me. :)

As for the Friday... just wasn't enough interest.
Fridays & Saturdays are hard to schedule regularly just because they're Fridays & Saturdays. :indiff:
 
mike 5927
I'll be there tonight.

I don't like the ring usually, but I will be starting in a car I love.

Lucky you. I get to drive the Pig...!

Melon: are we qualifying on Nur 24H for Race 1? Or will we cheat and use GP/D or F?

Also as an aside I have to withdraw from the Thursday event as of June. Don't think work will appreciate me playing GT5 instead of working come Thursday afternoons.
 
Thanks for reminding me about the qualifying issue.

Reset track on the hour, set the timer to start the race, and just let everyone get out on the track, and let qualifying order depend on track position when the race automatically starts.
This way if someone's late, they can just enter the track while qualifying is going on, and we won't have to consider when someone arrived to where they should line up manually on the grid. (If we did gd/p we'd have to do a manual grid order line up. Which could cause confusion with those who need to arrive a tad late.)

PS: @ Zorrin: congrats on the job.
 
I hope to make it on time :)

Edit ; Looks I will not be able to join, at the moment i can not get online because PSN is under maintenance... :ouch:

Sorry it took me a bit to post Thursday's results. I was ill for 2 days with a sinus infection brought on by seasonal allergies. :ill:
But I'm ready to race tonight, and hopefully improve my performance compared to Thursday's often humiliating experience.

The points standings are here:

Car assignments for tonight's Sunday race and Thursday's event are here:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?p=6993693#post6993693

Sunday Nürburgring Night has been cut from 6 races down to 5, simply because we ran overtime on Thursday with 5 races, so we'll keep it uniform. I think we ran over because of some lounge problems at the start of Thursday's event. But also I misjudged a bit how long the 1-lap races would be.
And, it's a challenging event to be sure. I'm not really looking forward to race #1 in the G35. :yuck: (The SL55 is no picnic there either. ha ha ha)
