Looking forward to this evening? Seeing the lineups from previous nights, it was difficult to find/make something completely unique, but I tried.
Disregard the American flag on my PSN. I have non PAL setup so I can redeem codes (ex. Chromeline/Stealth)

Go TIGERS! Haha. I was in stl when you guys beat us for the world series a few years back. Well just outside of the city at a bar called wild country. Bastards kicked me out because I was sporting a detroit hoodie.

I know Green! But I see you are unhappy lately too.
The short of it is I just seem to have more fun in this series. Why? Technical and format differences in the two series aside, Sunday feels so formal. There isn't nearly as much friendly chat...and if you do chat, someone will probably complain about excessive in-game chatter. There seems to be so much focus on rules, breaking them and enforcing them, that it's hard for me to loosen up and have a good time. The races are so short and the pressure to get to the front is so great that people race more aggressively than they normally would.
I just feel more relaxed here. In chat I can say whatever I want and we laugh and have a good time. No one is complaining or arguing...except Shmiggz
j/k. The racing is clean, lighthearted and fun. It's hard to put my finger on it but right now, I have alot more fun here. It feels like I'm playing and afterwards I wish is wasn't so late so we can do it some more. Sunday feels like work and I almost can't wait for it to end.

In agreement. I like the fact that if anyone really wanted, they could win a single race just by picking a crazy car. I also like seeing how well lesser pp cars do against tough competition. It's exciting knowing that a 390 pp car can run against a 405 pp car, but also nerve racking because if the draft it's lost, you're just pursuing for mistakes!
9 runs in the ninth
Forgetting to tape NCAA championship

I should've just raced

No I had it in the bag with three laps left, catching the leader by 3 secs a lap (after spinning on lap one), I just got around Ken, was 4 secs behind the lead group of four and spun it like a dumb ass on the final low speed corner trying to get a good run down the straight. No reason to push it there...I knew I was going to catch you guys...apparently I thought catching you .5 sec earlier was very important

Everything about that last race was fantastic. It almost felt like a real race with people coming to the front or falling to the back as laps wound down. I can't say enough about that little Toyota I was driving. That thing may not be the fastest, but damn is it fun. I'm not even upset I lost, that race was just an absolute joy.

It's funny you should say that. Although I didn't race last night, I dreamt I was participating... in reality. In my dream, myself, Nic, chatva, my brother (who didn't run SNAIL anymore) and I think tez were running cars at Tokyo. After the race, which my brother won in a black civic type, we were in the pits and everyone was in fire suits, helmets on, addressing each other by PSN names. It was bizarre to say the least, but still sweet. people ask what I did last night, I'll say I was lapping a Mazdaspeed protege (car I was driving)
... I may play GT5 to much.

Well I guess we will never know now, haha. I will say that you and I in similar cars gives you a big advantage though.
Racefan, you were awesome in that MR2. So was husan or husam in that VW. I had a few pp on both of you and you guys were right with me the whole race.

Sounds like the best dream ever haha. Or it would have been if you won
Thanks man, I was giving it 110% to try to make something happen and it ened up biting me in the last chicane, but it was well worth it. 👍

Yeah I was just joking that several people in the same race can come away with a "I had it in the bag until...." story
I do believe you would have won that one Joe. You blew past me and I still caught the leaders at the end. Well, almost caught them.
That was some good old fun racing last night.
