It's not gonna be the same people. Most guys on here are affiliated with teams, and most teams are already involved. NEMESIS, MLD, Burst, RSM, etc. So new guys could be invited by their team members. But I see your point about new guys who may not have a team, so I'll probably set up a "license day" like I talked about before. If you show enough skill and it's deemed you're not cheating, then you can obtain a license to qualify.

Not to bug you with questions. But when you do this you eliminate the people who do not have/use a GTP thread. Like us at SR Elite. We don't use our thread.

I am sure you are going to figure all this stuff out in time. No big deal bro. I can wait for you to get time. I don't want to bug you when you are trying to figure everything out.
 
Yo Pred just stop asking questions dude. I never seen so many questions asked in my life, its like you guys never done a competition before.

Sorry, but when i ask, it's because i have a question.
But it looks like you don't like that i ask question about things i wounder about. So next time i want ask, so if i do (mistakes/something wrong) because of that it's ok?.
So i guess everyone ok with that.

I really don't want to sound mean here, but this comp is based of of GTP, not SR Elite (not even really sure what that is, TBH) so anyone signing up should have a GTP account.

I know. I am probably the only one that will sign up. I think i might have miss understood the team invite statement. Just forget about it. I'll just wait until you get everything figured out to ask questions.

Google translate wont help me in this one. Dafaq did you just said?????:ill:

In another hand; after a long research (2min) I've cono to the results that my Chaser is officially the less powered car registered until now.:indiff: I mean, its a chaser!!!!! There is a Miata with 600hp. :ill:
I don't know if I am the only non-hybrid since I can't really tell by the list if drivers.
 
Cars that have '---' on Chassis, Engine, and Drivetrain are Normal cars. I was thinking about making a listing of which are hybrids and non-hybrids but deemed it unnecessary. If a '---' is found anywhere else it usually means that the category it's found in was not specified by the person who signed up. Basically, there are 4 other normal cars entered, 5 in total.
 
I'd like to make a note...

That Ghost Tuning Garage has officially begun sponsorship of Kiyoshiro, aka Star_Drift_Kiyo, who will be using a Ghost Tuned Nissan Fairlady Z33. This Nissan-exclusive drift car has a carefully balanced and modified VQ37VHR supercharged motor and has a NISMO Z33 reinforced and weight reduced chassis. Unlike the test car and theory posted on this board, this is the full thing. 100% competition-worthy Z-Car.

I wish him luck and hope that even if he doesn't win the competition, he goes far enough to demonstrate the capability of his skills and the car that has been carefully built for him. We'll be working closely as the competition progresses to optimize his tune for the course demands.

Guys I'll be backing out of Formula D as well as GT5 For good. My wheel will be sold today I've already organized someone to pick it up and my Tamora, Supra and RX-7 will be shared.

You'll get my recommendation.
 
Hey LV if i may propose this maybe a pro am or something because good trustworthy people will stick around if they are given a chance. I know this on hand because of my cooperate experiences and leadership. If you do approve it ill host it if you want me too. *Sorry For Double Post.*

Not really sure what you mean, this has been pro am the whole time. I appreciate your offer, but if I do hand this over to someone to run I've already talked to the people who would and have said they would keep the same formula. No disrespect meant to you Danger, but the guys I've discussed this with have been involved every round and have been helping since day 1 pretty much. The guys that have been competing are good trustworthy people. I don't see a need to change anything.


On a different note, not to draw attention away from this but I need to do a bit of a shameless plug here. I'm hosting a F1 2012 championship on PS3 that runs every other Sunday at 4pm EST and we need some drivers. So if any of you guys use a wheel and wanna get some fun intense racing in check out the link in my signature. We've got about 7 guys right now but can have up to 16 I think. All the cars are equal performance and we've had some really good races so far.

I'll be hosting some fun races this Sunday and round 3 is the following Sunday.

Migrating back to the US. Can't afford to ship my wheel so it's about time I give it up. Hopefully drift with you guys on GT6.

You will be missed! I wish I was on to get that tamora. I would love to drift it. XD

I have a question about this. Do you have to have a wheel to join this or not?

Yeah, unfortunately. For some reason using a DS3 gives you a half second to 1.5 second advantage per lap. It's a known issue and Codemasters hasn't fixed it.
 
Awww.... dammit.. that means I can't join... though its the exact opposite for me. The wheels are usually faster then the DS3's to me.

Yeah that's what I thought also.

I know I don't like it either. What seems to be happening is Codemasters programmed the DS3 to only look at corner speed and tire wear. So if you can get the braking and turn in right it's a perfect corner every time. The wheel is taking into account corner speed, tire wear, fuel load, wheel angle, downforce levels etc.

Not trying to be conceited but I'm pretty quick, could have made GT Academy first year if college wasn't a factor and barely missed top 32 last year. Some guy in the first race we did put down a lap half a second quicker than I did... on the harder tire when I was on the softer compound. It's a pretty obvious advantage, so I had to ban DS3's.

If anyone else is interested, please post in that thread, I don't want to take away from FD here. Anybody got their cars finalized yet? I'm pretty happy with my Mustang :)
 
I'm out of fd now as well. My dad broke my gran tourismo yesterday in two parts. I won't be online until I get a new gt5

You are only talking about Codemasters F1 game right?


And I am probably going to switch my car. Retiring the RX7 for a while. Got to used/comfortable to it. Can't do that. I like not knowing what all it can do so it can scare me.

I'll be switching to the premium
Nissan 300zx
Hybrid: yes- 2JZ swap only
