Hey guys I am going to be out for the rest of the day likely. Have a great race tonight.

mics will be on. If it creates lag issues we will re-evaluate next week

 

[jobyone]

Oh and if you are not a member of the club the id is

1005073

You should be able to join it.

 

[88GTA]

I'll be some sort of green, how do I join the club online. I'm not familiar with these new online groups.

Look up club ID 1005073. Try to get in ASAP so we aren't scrambling at race time. In order to find the room you will go through the community section in GT6 home menu. Then find the DTC Club and then look for the open club lobby.

 

[Zii1993]

What time does the fun start? I think I'm reading over it in the OP.

 

[kendawg]

usually around 9:15

[tezgm99]

Lagging....restarting the PS3, should be back in time for qualifying.

 

[brntguy]

I'll be streaming here.

 

[Kgffy]

Hi gents won't make this race, visting family and we decided to stay one more night, good luck tonight.

 

[WhiterunGuard]

Sorry I had to leave guys...I really wanted to see if I could place at least 6-7th...

 

[tezgm99]

🤬 lag, at least I can watch the live feed though

 

[88GTA]

Awesome, CLEAN racing boys. @tezgm99 you'll be in the thick of it next week.

 

[GGGMotorsport]

Great stuff tonight. Such a fun little car and some great close racing by all. @brntguy, you really need to get on the track and join us!

Here are the UNOFFICIAL results. See you all next week at Autumn Ring!

 

[dylansan]

Thanks for the racing everyone. I think racing with you all has yielded some of the most fun moments of my life, as crazy as it sounds.

Hopefully I'll be able to join the rest of the season. I raced tonight on the connection from my dorm, which seems surprisingly more stable than the one at home. So if I'm home one of these weekends I might not have a good enough connection for an enjoyable race. I can't count the times I've been in a great battle and suddenly been disconnected. It was nice not to have to worry about that tonight, at least.

Also seems like Grim, Joe and I are quite evenly matched, and 88GTA was right with me the entire time. Will be interesting to see if the same few of us tend to group up next week.

 

[Starvsnr]

Looks like I have my work cut out for me getting back into racing shape.

 

[Zii1993]

Confirming next weeks race at autumn ring reverse.

 

[jobyone]

From what I saw it looks like there was some good close racing! I am pretty happy with the turnout but hopefully we can get a full grid next week.

Looks like I have my work cut out for me getting back into racing shape.

It is hard racing with a group of fast and consistent guys. But it does tend to make one faster and more consistent.

Did anyone end up getting in to the 1:09's?

 

[Schmiggz]

Oh man, that pit entry was a bummer but totally my fault. I entered pit way too fast so the game shoots me straight to the sand box across the track .
It was fun.

 

[88GTA]

Did anyone end up getting in to the 1:09's?

No, 1:10.015 was my best lap during the second race and that ended up being quickest for the night.

@brntguy
Please let us know when the video is up and thanks again for streaming. 👍

 

[brntguy]

OK great. Hopefully next week you can join in the fun.

 

[kendawg]

Had a good race and kept the car clean. Well, until I got around Joe. He kept throwing beer bottles at me. Think at one point I ran over one and slid into Grim.

With good fun racing like that It really doesn't matter where you finish.

 

[88GTA]

Just watched the whole thing again, freaking awesome. Great battles the whole time, even the Joe and Ken bumper cars at the end of race 2. Best part had to be the "We're all gonna die!" in turn 1.

I hope next week will be just as good but I am must less experienced at Autumn Ring (of death).
