Heath did you get my PM?

I did mate, sorry but I get 15-30 a day between the two forums so I do not always get the chance to reply straight away. I will have a look tonight đź‘Ť
 
HI,
I am interested in joining the club; but I'm unsure of something said earlier on this page:

"In addition: I wish to make it ABUNDANTLY CLEAR that I FULLY encourage and support GTP membership and any member of CRAP is required to have a GTP membership and is fully encouraged to use the site as GTP is where we all began and is the absolute premier GT5 site, just to be clear."

I'm new to all of the Gran Turismo lingo ... when you say that all members of CRAP are required to have a "GTP" membership, is that one of the one's for the Playstation that you pay per month, or is it a membership to this site?

I'll leave it at this: If there is no fee to join I would love to learn from others, if there's a fee involved ...I'll have to pass.
My in game name is war_w1zard ( I think that's what you are asking for )...lol really new to this; sorry about the long post.
Cheers

No mate, doesn't cost a cent I mean this website here (gtplanet) and since you have a username you are in already!

MeanElf will be in touch directly and will give you the details :)

Hi Cyrus :)

I've sent all the details and links, HP. I'll pm Elf to let him know and save him the job. :)
 
I just signed up for the 'new' forums. It's been a while... I might even still have the 5 lounge's in my friends list. Looking forward to some good racing, again! any steps I need to do for anything?

Welcome back JT - I'll check those lounges for you and resend if you aren't there still.

hi i would like to join the crap party my ps3 name is green__007 tryed to join web page but not allowed underscore do i need to change my ps3 name? cheers mikeybee
 
I am 110% in! This sounds so much more consistent than playing server roulette every night. Who do I need to send a FR to? I'm on a three week business trip right now, so if someone could send an FR to AMBLO2U in the meantime, I'd appreciate it greatly.
 
Hey crap people, have you got any races going this weekend that you a need a backmaker for? Lol

Hey hairy!

We have a bit on this weekend, and more next weekend for CRAP's birthday :)

I'll pm you.

PM's sent. :)

Make sure you're all happy to keep at it, we've had members lately who've joined briefly then disappeared so make sure you're able to log in to the forum and join in the fun every now and then :)
 
What amazed me when joining was what a friendly, relaxed bunch of people the members of CRAP are :crazy:. I have had a great time in the year since discovering the group. We try to keep things fresh by having different types of racing of which there are often multiple runnings to try and cater for our multinational membership. Some have wheels, some don't, some have mics some are mute(d)

One weekend a month is our monthly endurance race (e.g. January's is this weekend - 600pp Supercars)

Then we have a variety of other types of "organised" races at weekends and also on a casual ad hoc basis in the week and when there isn't an organised event. A few examples below.

Full Damage/No Aids
Shuffle racing
Non tuning races
Single make races
Theme nights
CRAP On A Budget (occasional league)
Handicap races (car/driver levelling)
Time trials
Free run/social/cruising driving

No one takes it too seriously - it's the craic that's the most important thing.

Cheers to "HP" and crew for setting things up in the first place.

There will be CRAP Recruiting open lobbies this coming weekend Friday 1st- Saturday 3rd February.

Races will be a combination of single make races and shuffle racing. Last placed drivers in races will generally choose cars and tracks.

All AIDS except Skid Recorvery Force will be allowed although most members won't be "using" except for some with ABS=1. If you own a Mic, bring it along if you like. Mic settings in the room won't be high but we should still be intelligable (ish!)

If you would like to join, details of room will be posted when rooms are opened. Let us know if you think you might join in. All clean racers welcome.

Room Comment: Clean CRAP Recruiting
Max number of participants: 16
Race quality: Low
Voice Chat Quality: Very Low
Track: Various
Aids: SRF disabled. Everything else allowed
 
I wanted to repost this for those of you who may be interested in online gt5 racing but perhaps feel intimidated or keep running into arse's online. It's been a while, so maybe a refresher about the group will find some new friends.
I joined over a year ago and have had more fun in gt5 in that time period than i could've imagined. It was Heathenpride's original call out that spoke to me. Maybe it speaks to you as well. Come race with us. đź‘Ť


**** If you're reading this then you would benefit from reading this thread & the OP therein as this one is outdated ****

Not that long ago I posted on this site asking for any casual players to join me and race online without the pressure and regulations that go with a stint in a lot of the rooms. I wanted people that had the same time constraints and who were as frustrated as I was and getting booted from rooms or simply not having fun for a number of reasons.

I expected maybe 10 people to reply but the response has been huge.

We have a mix of people from those on regularly to those who drop in every now and then and everyone inbetween. We have fast drivers and slow drivers and inbetween drivers. Some use driving aids and some do not, it is entirely up to the indivual concerned and we do not give anyone any grief for using them or for being a "noob" or inexperienced, in fact we welcome those people.

I really am stoked with the response I have had and I am glad that there was a need for a casual and relaxed group that has allowed me and others to have many a great race and a good laugh.

Huge thanks go out to all the regular die-hard C.R.A.P members who have been there all along; your help has been, and will continue to be, invaluable & I welcome your continued input; without you guys this would have surely bombed.

I will keep this thread "alive" for purposes of recruitment but race information will not be posted here as we have our main thread here so it is not necessary to maintain this thread with the same information.

Do continue to keep this alive though as this will be the first place that our target audience will see us so keep it going so we maintain that much needed visibility so those who need us can find us đź‘Ť

See ya'all on the road :sly:
 
I joined the CRAP club back when it was originally started but didn't get to race or free run much due to other commitments. I have picked up the PS3 controller again of late and would like to get into some online racing. Not a really fast driver, but I do try and be a clean driver. My psn is mcartt11.
