Hehehehe, Mr. S I beat your Lap Record on Kuala Lumpur using your Setup :D
I got a 1:29:754
Don't Believe me? Check the Leaderboards!

I was running the engineers dry setup at Melbourne. I might try a different setup for Malaysia.

They won't work for everyone. :/ Yet, shoot me a PM containing the difficulties you encountered and I'll try to improve it for you. :)

Hope more people turn out.

We all do. :D

Oh, time trial? Never tried that - I'll give it a try, I'm not playing TT (usually). All times have been set in GP mode. Yet, great time! Grats! :)

Yep, On Time Trial. It's better for Practicing since you can't take damage, no tyre wear or fuel consumption, it gives you a ghost to compete against and you can use upto 6 Different Ghosts! (I think it's a rough guess).
 
Sorry guys, still have no internet at home (virgin working in my area) guess you had a good race in melbourne. Apologiesm

No worries. That's also the reason why you didn't show up on Friday, I guess. :D

Hope it's being fixed soonish! 👍

I find its better to practice in Grand prix mode as then you can practice strategies, how the car will drive on cold tyres, heavy fuel loads etc where as in time trial you have maximum grip at all times. Your braking points in time trial mode will be different to what they are in GP mode too.

I also find it better to practice with other cars around me then I can learn how to handle the pressure and not crash into them or make mistakes.

Indeed but it's still a great time - I'll give it a try today or tomorrow and see if I can get my "record" back. :D

Mustn't be too hard. I was in an Online race today and someone set a 1:26 on Kuala Lumpur. I was amazed...

Malaysia is approaching quickly - the next race will be held on THURSDAY at 7:30pm GMT (8:30pm UK time - 9:30pm CENTRAL EUROPEAN TIME (PARIS, MADRID, BERLIN etc.) - be there or be square! I'll send out invitations around 10-15 minutes before. :D
 
Hello I was wondering if I could join this league? I see on page 1 there is a spare Ferrari slot so if possible could I use that? Thanks.

My PSN is SH-Fire if you want to race :)

Sure thing. Please don't skip your first race on Thursday, tho. ;)
 
Guys, I might not be able to make it... I've been going from place to place lately in half term. I'll put a second post confirming if I can or not. And a Third Post (Or an Edited Second Post) Saying if I can make it.
 
thunderjolt: then stop going from place to place and lets race :)

seriously - hope You can make it tonight

Right now. I should be able to make it. But my Parents could go out for dinner. So for now, IMA MAKE TEH RACE! :D
 
You got to be Kidding me...
As I predicted my Parents want to go out for dinner..
They say we might be back by 9pm. So if you wouldn't mind holding the race back for 30 minutes Maximum I'd be grateful. If I'm not back by 9-9:10PM then start without me.
Happy Racing.
 
Right, so we were only 4 again.

I'm sorry but it took some effort to get all this done, message people and everything - don't get me wrong but it seems pointless if people aren't even telling me they can't join (thunderjolt and GTRacerUK being the exception for todays' race, for example). PAWEL17 is living in Australia and the race is starting at 6am for him but even HE was there - thanks again mate, what a great battle we had in Australia. :)

I'm feeling kind of pranked - I won't continue organising the series anymore. The first (and only) race is a fond memory and I'm thankful for having been part of the fun. If anyone wants to continue working on it: feel free to do so. I won't lock down the thread.
 
We're 3 at the moment - what's up? :)

And, I'm back! Invite me!

Sucks to see this League go down. Well it must feel bad after organising everything and barely anyone shows up. I was looking forward to some Good races. Oh Well.

We weren't enough people, sorry - in reply to your message on PSN: not your fault, mate. Thanks for putting so much effort into it. :)
 
Shame we couldn't get to race tonight. I was looking forward to getting my first race underway! Thanks for organising what you have done though, Mr S :)

Instead why don't we make a little Group (Full of friends) and we can hold little friendly races instead when it's convenient for everyone? Then at least we could be sure that people would come.
 
What a shame about the turnout tonight the championship it's clearly going to be a good one from what I saw a Melbourne.

It's really annoying this week because I'm off for the next three days but still couldn't make it...
