Wow not checked in for a while and now everyone is talking about selling PS3's! DONT DO IT!!!!

 

[jimy281090]

I didnt get the chance mine died haha

 

[Pepe13]

Did some test and the 190E should be definitely in, only 482 pp but can run low '06-s easily on GVE and it reminds me the golden ages of DTM, so what do you think about it?

 

[mcgloney]

I like the idea of people putting in more cars. But there should be a final day where no more cars is allowed in the championship.

 

[cally-dave]

Am I right in saying the S16 Silvia is not allowed, or am I wrong?

 

[jimy281090]

NOT allowed

Also please try stick to the cars chosen for this season.. I seen a comment on Classic DTM.. this is BTCC lol sorry! we have thisall set out and will be open for discussion for better season rules closer to the end of the season

 

[cally-dave]

Thats cool, was just checking

 

[mcgloney]

PlayStation are useless. Why tell us the network would be up this week when it will clearly not. Biggest let down.

 

[GTWelsh]

They are trying to bring it online without getting hacked again. With everyone pushing for an eta, the tried to give an eta and got it wrong. As long as when it's online it's secure. I don't mind the delays.

 

[cally-dave]

I dont mind the delays either

The lack of PSN has given me chance to gold all my licenses ;D

Just made a start at golding special events too, I'm in no hurry

 

[Joshua1994]

yeah haha, not too fussed on when its back either, aslong as when its back its definite it wont happen again. have better things to do anyway than getting wound up by sony not meeting the dates they set.

 

[mcgloney]

But you can see why people are annoyed. I mean im not doubting the playstation team, it is a hard job rebuilding a network. But there should be a lot more information sooner. Never make a date until they are sure they can meet it. I hope they have learned from this, just hope it don't happen again then i will turn my ps3 in.

It was due to be up but then they found out that SOE got hacked aswell so they had to delay relaunching it.

 

[smalldave]

I'm not complaining a huge amount about psn being down - it gives me a chance to do well in my AS's

hahaha, still managing to fail mine here, even though i have nothing to distract me..

 

[mcgloney]

Well i done a Endurance race last night. 200km race around Laguna Seca. Decided to use a Evo and won .

 

[GTWelsh]

how ya fancy a GT300 series instead of a season 2 ?

GT300 (STANDARD)
S Autobacs ARTA Garaiya '03
S Nissan C-WEST RAZO SILVIA '01
S RE Amemiya AMEMIYA ASPARADRINK RX7 '04
S Subaru CUSCO SUBARU ADVAN IMPREZA '03
S Toyota SUPERAUTOBACS APEX MR-S '00
S Toyota WEDSPORT CELICA '03

GT300 (PREMIUM)
P RE Amemiya AsparaDrink RX7 '06
P Subaru CUSCO DUNLOP SUBARU IMPREZA '08
P Autobacs ARTA Garaiya '08
P Lexus Weds Sport IS350 '08

Sounds like fun and they are the real cars, not some, half a*sed road car conversion to make a BTCC car.

 

[RufusGonePunk]

Was there ever a Mk1 IS200/Altezza entered into GT300?

 

[GTWelsh]

Think that's one of those weird GT5 fantasy "touring cars".

The lexus GT1 is a good shout though. standard car. The white and red one.

I can provide some help on this. The white / red Toyota Altezza GT1 is about same performance as the Honda Integra Touring, mazda 6 and BMW 320i touring cars used in my series. The Altezza is GT300 speed I reckon. It needed a 10% power cut and 200kg weight penalty to bring it in line.

 

[GTWelsh]

Hmm thanks for the info buddy, maybe keep it just proper GT300 then, keep it authentic.


Don't meen to be cheeky but can anyone pop over to my college project website and leave some feedback on the forum (at the bottom).

The blog has comments available and things now (for anyone that has looked before).

[Furinkazen]

Also I thought I'd be a little cheeky and let you know that my series is going to be retired possibly in prepeartions for a full Season 2, if you guys want I'll keep you posted as I have had some decent racers this season...

 

[RufusGonePunk]

The only reason I asked about the Lexus is that Martin Ffrench's planned IS200 Time Attack car was going to have bodywork from what I was sure said a SuperGT IS200. Now whether or not it was just a SuperGT look-a-like kit, I'm not sure. Although it did look pretty legit, with raised arches and lowered bonnet etc.

 

[Joshua1994]

about the GT300, just join the series im currently in, mixed GT500 and GT300. season 2 starts soon

[Andil]

We have 2 more races of this season to go, and are in discussion for new regulations for improvements for the second season.

 

[dragon-jake]
