CRAP pCARS ClubPS4

[Elitekilla29]

It's been challenging trying to make these races lately. I got a little brother that be on the game and my job has been giving me more work lately. It's days where i think i can join and then y'all be done right away. I be thinking y'all just now starting and then when i go to the message board everyone is just saying "alright good race see ya". But it's not a big deal though because i been playing the Career mode a lot lately on pcars anyway and when y'all send invites i be in the middle of the my race. Trying to complete everything (i hope) before pcars 2 release. Also it's a lot of games that's about to release that i been really looking forward to. 3 of them are racing games ( Assetto Corsa being one of them)and i already know when those games come out im not go be on pcars most likey.

Almost daily we are having public lobbies you could join, we are playing till 2300/2400 our time,...
also closed lobbies but lately we are doing lots of public.
(and i know you join those lobbies frequently )

But because you live on the other side of the pond, sometimes to play with your favcorite people can be a hassle

here is the game i used to play way back when by EA (westwood) - do not look at the ps1 version lol (pc only)





pCars brought me back to Sim racing

and Racing hasn't improved for some

 

[HammyMansell]

So guys for those of you that didn't know, i've bitten the "spark plug" and finally purchased a proper steering wheel Thrustmaster T150 "Ferrari Edition" to replace my old wobbly T100!

To say there is a slight difference would be an understatement!

👍👍

I've been thinking about posting this for a while and sent this to a friend here on GTP a few weeks ago but been scared of posting it here, but here we go..

No need to quote or mention anything! I don't like to let the whole world know but if I'm going to say it this is the best place 👍


I've tried finding a way to post on GTP or psn chat but haven't managed to post yet so I'll start with you I have struggled with different stuff for many years and kept my mouth shut not telling anyone. It's been up and down but always lurking. Recently I hit the wall hard and I'm struggling with (social) anxiety and depression. I can't even go to some places and am terrified of picking the phone up to call people (and receive calls), even my parents. That's why I'm not using my mic. It scares the crap out of me thinking about it! I am working on it seeing someone once a week and hoping they've got some magic dust to use on me... I'm not seeing an end of it yet but trying to keep my hopes up. I'm also negative all the time. I can't think positive anymore. Haven't been able to so that for a long time earlier I have joined every CRAP event I could join but recently I haven't. That is because I'm prioritising myself and what I think i want for a while. I will hopefully be back again soon and sorry for not joining or reply if I get invites. It means a lot for me to get the invites so please continue sending them!
I am a quiet guy and always have been. I prefer to just listen and don't say much. Being in chat rooms is enough to feel better and forget things for a while so thanks for that when there's one to join 👍
Thanks for reading and I don't expect replies or anyone mentioning this so that's not necessary. I just felt it was time to share my "dirty little secret" and hoping it helps me somehow my parents doesn't even know this yet because I can't talk about it... if this changes how anyone see me then so be it. I'm too tired to care.

Hi Kevin, really sorry to hear that mate, i hope you feel better soon and things get easier for you. Of course it's hard, but always remember to talk about things, and don't keep them bottled up inside.

And you know you can join one of our party chats whenever you want (I think you've joined 1 or 2 in the past, so you know what crazy antics that go on in them! ) and for sure we would try and cheer you up as much as possible!

And you know that myself, and all the CRAPpers here are right behind you!! Good luck man! 👍

Keep strong Kevin and keep racing as it's a great escape from the world's problems, racing with the CRAPpers is always fun fun fun, that's always a positive thing 👍

Thanks for the kind words here and on pm. It helps being in this group 👍 I just wanted you guys to know why I might not join sometimes. I've been away for a while and will be the next weeks too. Spent a week with my family at a cabin. Almost a week at my mom's. Next week I'm visiting my dad the whole week and then off to Spain with family for a week. Busy busy busy!! After the 20th it's back to normal with kids in school, kindergarten etc etc. Can't wait to get back to racing again

I think we need a # for our youtube vids we upload. Any suggestions? I've tried #C.R.A.P but that didn't work.. #CRAP is probably not good either any ideas?
