Great racing tonight, I'm happy with 2 second places. Very close in race 1 until my right rear caught the grass and well chuffed to pick up 2 places after the pit stop in race 2. 👍

Yeah, race 2 certainly came down to some niffty pit strategy! I knew I'd get 3rd back as Dan hadn't pitted so it was only a matter of time :-D
As always, some good racing, constant pressure due to the high standard of everyone, I think over the coming week, in the interests of the group, I may need to do a cull (now I know that sounds harsh) but I get a few FR from people who don't leave a message on PSN, and some of the one who have left messages on here don't respond to me when I reply through a GTP PM....So with my original plan to get a bunch of 'core' gamers together, Over the past few weeks, I've now realised who the good and dependable gamers are and those who 'appear' to have given up or lost their interest in GT5....I may be wrong, but I'd rather have only those who can be around on a regular basis on my friendslist rather than only 50% of the new people playing GT5....and this means I can spend more time within a smaller group and get to know everyones 'style' of driving ;-)

Well you know that I will turn up when I say I will, and will race to the best of my ability. Unfortunately in last nights second race I just couldnt get it right at all and spent more time in the barriers than on track, lol. The way last night was set out was good, with a selected track that we had a bit of practice on in the days before, and a spot race where no one had practiced the track/car combo. It was good that dan and jhewson turned up at short notice, (was beginning to think I couldnt give that lexus away).

I wouldn't worry about your race performance, we'll all have off days, one thing though, remind me when we've spent hours practising, don't change anything on the car 2 minutes before race start, all my work counted for nothing as I'd totally messed up the handing on the lexus! Lol

Well its the Zero Cup on Wednesday from 20:30 (if you haven't signed up, go here and do it! www.warriuszero.blogspot.com) You'll also have to add WarriusZero as a friend if you haven't already as he hosts in his private lounge.
We're running a fully tuned Honda CR-Z (not the spoon version) all the details are on WarriusZero's blog page.
Other than that I'm up for some spot racing this week (as some people are away and arranging races seems pointless until everyone is back) Also this gives me a chance to see who will remain in our group. As I've had loads of replys to join the CORE, I can't get around everyone so to be fair to those who have joined and are active, I unfortunately need to tighten up our members, those who haven't shown much interest since joining or don't prefer our style of racing will be dropped, I apologise if this seems harsh, but I need to keep the focus on a tighter bunch of clean racers that will be around most of the time.
A final updated list will appear soon.
So for anyone who has joined and is on GTP, give me a shout if you are up for some spot racing....the rules for the tracks will be a 15 lap race around the Nurburgring GP/F followed by a reverse grid for a 5 lap race around the Nordschleife.
Dates to follow (this week)

Idea for the next CORE GT Series, IF we get enough people to take part and say we do more than one race, what I'd like to try out is 'Marshalling'
Depending upon total numbers, 1 or 2 spectators to 'watch' the race rather than taking part. I'd like to try and control mandatory pit-stops. What we need to agree on though is how we select the Spectators and possible do a 'rotation' with the role, so if you spectate in race 1 you will automatically be in race 2 but could be chosen for race 3 etc...
In other words you will alway be in a race following any race you marshall.
I'm open to ideas/suggestions :-)
