@racefan78
You should race if you are free too.

 

[tezgm99]

Oh man you scared me for a second.

@tezgm99
You pick the next combo.

Next person to confirm their attendance tonight can pick the third one.

Well, given how much fun I had last time around here in a FWD car, I'll take Laguna Seca with the Renault Sport Clio R.S. '11...watch now as it turns out to be rubbish

 

[88GTA]

Should be online in a few. I'll post the room number shortly.

 

[bloodredsky]

Wait, you guys are spec racing tonight ? Never mind guys, I'll pass on that. I have problems being told what car to use. I thought we were going to basically run some test races for this series. Bummer !

I'd love to, but I got a thermo test in the morning. Gotta hit the books.

We can run whatever. No points or anything so bring out a similar car if you want in

Room #: 1472-6681-3115-0603-9584

 

[bloodredsky]

But everyone else is going to be in the same car ? Yeah I'll pass. Spec racing is just not for me. This is definitely the wrong place to say it, but I think spec is kinda boring and stale. But that's just my opinion. (That's why I rather enjoy this series, because the machines vary so hard)

 

[88GTA]

Good racing boys. Thanks for helping me scratch that itch for the week.

 

[jobyone]

Damn. Looks like I just missed you

 

[IceWarden]

Spec racing is hard. It's not for the insecure or vain. There is nowhere to hide and no excuses to make.

You can't hide behind a bad car choice or gain an advantage due to a great car choice.

It's just pure racing. In some ways I don't like it because I expose my weaknesses vs other drivers. On the other hand, I'm confident because I know I can run with anyone when I'm prepared and on my game.

So it's not for everyone. Just believe in yourself and enjoy the ride

 

[88GTA]

Sorry Joby. We ended up doing a practice run of Tuesday's 1710pp at High Speed Ring.

 

[Schmiggz]

Schmiggz lives in Mississauga Ontario just in the outskirts of the great city of Toronto

 

[Nish]

Sorry I put up a joke about not being mentioned and then didn't even show up. It's a rare night if I don't touch my PS3 but too much was on my mind. Hope it was a great time .

 

[danfurey]

Good racing boys. Thanks for helping me scratch that itch for the week.

Thanks for setting that up!

 

[bloodredsky]

And across the line ! The 5 way battle's end for P3. Super fantastic racing all.

 

[88GTA]

Nice pics blood.

@JoeW
I don't want to nitpick but you've been wearing the same outfit since like, release day... I'm just saying.

 

[jobyone]

Great pics blood. Sorry to hear you we're suffering from WCPS. I hope you recover by Tuesday

 

[IceWarden]

Omg...still chuckling about the tsukuba commentary. GRAND BATTLE JAPANESEEEEE! SUPER HAPPY FUN TIME HAPPY HOUR!

Good stuff

@88GTA

I don't have time for all that fluffy stuff. I put that anniversary outfit on day 1 and haven't touched it. I have only completed enough of the game to get me online and have done any seasonal races past the first couple of weeks. I'm lame....

 

[88GTA]

^And here I was thinking you had all kinds of dolla bills for some new threads

 

[kendawg]

@kendawg are you up for being our official stig/test driver? Basically I need lap times for all the tracks we are running. If you are up for the challenge just run the mystery 450pp car you used for the other lap times around the rest of the eligible tracks. No great hurry

No problem. I will get that done tomorrow night since I don't run the Saturday night races anymore. (Thanks GT6)

 

[tezgm99]

That means you'll have to buy the Stig suits too, ken

 

[kendawg]

That means you'll have to buy the Stig suits too, ken

Maybe I can borrow one from Joe. Wait, never mind.

[jobyone]

He is not allowed to tell

 

[kendawg]

What car(s) did you use to get these times?

Ancient Japanese secret.

 

[IceWarden]

I used the 86 Toyota anniversary. I think it is 448 pp

Ancient Japanese secret not very secret

 

[kendawg]

[In Japanese voice] You brake code. You win no more. Hhii

 

[IceWarden]

I have brought much dishonor to family.

Only way to atone for sins is to commit "hara-kiri" by my own gear shifter....

HAAAAEEEEEEEEYAAAAAAAAAAaaauuuugggghhhhhhh.....

 

[danfurey]

I'm confused about this data logger deal, is this something in the game where you can track where you are in your racing line or something that compares where a real car is?
