👍 Happy to have you.
My average is mid 1:50's but I think I've got mid :49's in me. On the right tires you'll be good. 👍Turned a 1:51:077Nevermind... Wrong tire was used test session.
M3 GT '11 (non base-model) ok?

You're going to look like Naptown's teammate. Not sure if you want to be that closely associated with a Hoosier.
I'll indulge you with some pics...

Brandon, maybe we could try to expand the grid to 16 drivers in order to give 2 more entries. As you said, we are at risk of having lag, but it can be minimised by setting race quality to Normal and disallowing microphone use within the room.
Furthermore, if players -especially the host- have an Ethernet-provided Internet connection the lag shouldn't spoil the event.

As much as I'd like to I just don't trust a full room and have already seen a few lag problems in GT6. I've tried all the different settings and disabling chat in the past and saw little to no improvement, if lag is going to happen it's going to happen it and the more in the room the worse it is. I have a very strong wired connection but I can't control others connections. I do use the "normal" quality setting and voice shat on standard. If we do get 14 I will probably disable voice chat just to be safe. I would rather have 2 fewer drivers then risk having the whole thing ruined by lag issues. Even at 14 we may see some stuttering but hopefully once the grid spreads out a bit everything will smooth out. 👍
Thanks for the input though. I'm not trying to dismiss your suggestion, just going with what is my experience to make sure we have the smoothest race we can.

That's all right. Let's hope no lag then. 👍

Yes sir, should have a room open around 2:30pm EST. I'll be making a supplies run myself, supposed to get 12" of snow and be -50f with windchill.

Hi all...!
Don't think I can let this opportunity pass, to race with this fantastic group, so I opt in for a (the last?) spot..
However, I am not sure if the above list of registered drivers are fully updated, as I can't see Marcus and DavidIzq listed, yet they posted for participation..?
I do hope that a spot still is vacant... If not, then I will be the first on the reserve-list..
GTP ID: MikaelK / PSN ID: MikaelK_70 / Car Choice: E92 M3 '10
Hope to see you on the race-track!
Regards,
Mikael

I'll get the list updated and for you, I will allow a 15th spot.
See you guys on track in a few hours.

Really appreciated... Thank you for the courtesy..!
In return I promise, if lag-issues should show its ugly face, I will be the first to leave the race.

We're officially full but I have put you as the first reserve driver so if somebody can't make it or doesn't show you'll be first to take their spot. 👍

I have a room open for practice. We will do free runs and some 4 lap races, everyone can come and go as they're available. If you just added me and can't see my room try logging out of PSN and back in, I've had some issues with this recently.

Not wanting to complain or anything but I put my name in there quite early...did I get turned down? Guess I'll ask for a reserve spot if I can

To anyone (@MagicFerrari ) with connection issues:
1) Make sure you've cleared your network cache (options -> network)
2) Make sure you have proper ports forwarded to your PS3 in your router.
2a) To do it right you're gonna have to set your PS3 to have a fixed IP address in PS3 network setting
2b) And then forward ports listed in a link above to this IP.

My bad mate, I musta missed your post. You're in, we'll allow a full grid and I'll disable voice chat to help avoid lag.
Here's the oddity I came across during practice today, a bank robbery at Daytona.

DMZ should work, but I'd rather not open up every port
Port-forwarding is basically a DMZ for GT6, that's on all the time. I'd drop ports 80 and 443 off the list though.

So, I've just selected a fixed IP for my PS3, and I've opened the recommended ports in my router's configuration webpage. Is this how it should look if correctly set up?

Thanks, I don't want to be a bother, like I said you can throw me in the reserve spot if you need
