Congrats to Rees, great battle both races! So glad for the great stream and very helpful commentary to keep track of who was in which cars 👍👍

 

[Jav]

Thak you! Wasn't sure if it was up to date, looks loke our guys are pretty much in!!

 

[EDK]

Wow, 3 WRS guys in the top 16, and Stiggy gets in as RacerX. Awesome job by everyone. 👍 👍

Sorry, technically 4 WRS guys, as Eddie ran an online enduro with us. Great job by Wardez, redreevos, RackAttack, and A7XMaverick.

Can't wait to see you guys on TV.

 

[paulmac2k9]

Well done everyone! Also a special congrats goes out to Wardez and Rees!!

You guys really deserve this chance after all the things you've done and had to put up with on GT5 .

 

[LeftyWright69]

Way to go "WARDEZ"
Way to show your metal "Rees"
What a way to take the ultimate combo "Maverick"
Have fun in bloody ol England

 

[Dr_Watson]

big hand to everyone, good show guys 👍
thanks for the coverage Jordan and IGN, glad to see my premium $ going to work.

And a huge 👍 to those I know personally, pack ye bags and make for the land of mince pie and blood sausage!

 

[CodeRedR51]

They should make the two tied for 16th race for the last spot.

 

[Dr_Watson]

Here, I'll quote Dr's post. Apparently he's already updated it with last race results. 👍

p.s. going by whisky's spread sheet I think hunk has 1 more first and isn't that the first tie break?

 

[EDK]

Jordan did a great job today and represented GTP well. 👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

First tie break is least amount of 4th place finishes.

 

[paskowitz]

I wish GTP League races could get this kind of coverage. Maybe we should do a charity race or something? That would be really great.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

First tie break is least amount of 4th place finishes.

Don't know if you can get at it RT but sure would like some corroboration on that sheet. It's an excel file in a zip on the results thread.

 

[LeftyWright69]

I hope Hunk makes it

 

[CodeRedR51]

Don't know if you can get at it RT but sure would like some corroboration on that sheet. It's an excel file in a zip on the results thread.

Can't do that on my phone.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Can't do that on my phone.

Yeah, kinda figured that.

Has to be a blast to be there though.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Hunk was eliminated. He finished 17th.

 

[TRC Surly]

Bummer for AJ (Hunk) Really feel for him. But he'll be happy for Scooty so its kinda bitter sweet -TRC still has Scooty to repersent in England tho! A clutch 2nd place in heat 2 sealed the deal. So proud of both my Time team mates! woot woot!
Go TRC Scooty! FTW!

 

[CodeRedR51]

Feel bad for him, everyone that advanced were getting set up for photos and Hunk took off. Don't know where he ran off to. Taking it pretty hard.

 

[LeftyWright69]

Great job Scooty 👍 Hunk will be a force to be recond w/ in 2013

 

[TRC GeorgiaDawg]

Congrats to everyone who advanced. Especially AJ and Scooty doing us proud. Can't wait to see the sabertooth unleashed on TV.

Official results:

No it was A7Maverick that advanced (Kyle) not maverick-ace.

 

[SpecMiata-JSW]

Great job to the 16 going to England, but also to the 17 who didn't make it. The pressure is unreal and the media can be a huge distraction.

I remember the feeling last year when everyone kept telling me that I was "locked in"; I didn't believe it until I saw it on the official results. I'm not sure I'll ever have that amazing feeling again; and I'm excited for you 16 that have that buzz right now. Enjoy every moment of this experience; from the anticipation to arriving in England, to the race gear fitting, the frustrations of not knowing what is going to happen next in the competition, the butterflies of knowing that you'll be on tv, the great instructors, driving sick cars on an F1 track, and most importantly to the great friends that you will make and cherish for the rest of your life.

Congrats, congrats, congrats!!!!!!

Enjoy a beer or two; or 10 tonight; you earned it!!!

+1. And when it's over come back and tell us all your stories!

 

[BlisteredHand]

How many 3rd person players made it to Silverstone?

 

[GTPorsche]

Are those the official results? They don't quite match up with the points tally on the previous page.

 

[GTP_SniperWolph]

This is awsome! We have so many GTPlanets members representing, I feel lucky to hang out with the guys down in SanDiego!! Enjoy it! Once in a life time!

I cought some of the races (had to work) it was Great!

 

[hillracing]

I'm guessing there were some disqualifications and some problems with meeting the rules or something. My list has someone in 26th and 29th going so I'm guessing there were quite a few who weren't eligible. If you know you aren't qualified why compete. Some people would do anything for this oppertunity. Would love to hear the official story as I have a hunch about one of the contestants.
