I made it to nationals but obviously need a lot of work as I'm very new to gt6 and the steering wheel. I should be an easy passing practice. I'm trying to drive the proper lines in spite of what everyone else is driving.

My time would probably be better spent getting to know the tracks and shaving off the 3+ seconds of each lap to keep up with times the leaders are pulling.

Any suggestions on to which tracks I should focus on? probably not enough time to practice all of them, but the ones that would most likely be featured in finals (like the new red bull). I just don't want to make a complete fool of myself at nationals, even if I can't really compete with the rest.

I am in this same situation pretty much, I think i have made it based on a live event. So I also just want to see if I can improve in race situations so I don't make too much of a fool of myself. At the moment I know I definitely need to be more consistent and try to stay out of trouble when racing close to others.
 
@Holty I know, it was only a suggestion. I know you're quick and others aswell. And friends can come and join. :)

We've had some random people come and mess stuff up, I was just trying to get rid of the people that shouldn't be there.
 
@Danimal780 no you're good,

@Doodle that's why later I said that if you know them and are friends it's good :) and etc. Like you said, if they're randoms then no.

If you're friends or know someone it's good, if you're from GTP and the thread your good etc.. Just no random people that no one knows. I'm just saying suggestions.. Not trying to hurt anyone here. Cause the racing today was poor.
 
This is going to be really fun! It seems this year there are many new people, way more than in previous years. I'll have to check that out... Can't wait to shake off that rust I accumulated and step up from that terrible fail in round 4 of GT Academy :D
 
I guess that means I'm out. : /

Have fun fellas, hope to be with you next year - until then, ziptie out 👍

Don't think Lloyd is making the rules for this event, he's just making a suggestion, we're not excluding anyone from GTP until they mess up and need to be blacklisted. Every one on GTP gets the benefit of the doubt.

But, the hosts of the rooms, when they're hosting, decide what's gonna go down in those rooms only.
 
All I've said was suggestions guys :) I'm definitely not the guy around here to start bossing and making rules.
 
Was going to come on tonight guys, but this update and install is taking forever so I'll be on, on Friday I think :)!
 
New, no oil changes.​

Personally, I think it would be a better idea to allow oil changes to each car. I've already changed the oil of all of my cars, and it's be a hassle to buy all the cars again, certainly more so than changing the oil of each car.

For now, I'll apply engine limiters to match the non-oil PP figures.

I agree, I think we should have oil changes, because quite a lot of people will have to buy all the cars again otherwise.
