GTP Le Mans Prototype Series: [SEASON 5] COMPLETE ! Look for S6 soon

[Drum404]

If you have to get out in a hurry after an accident you'll be in trouble if the cars on fire

Yeah the scutineers timed me and they said it's safe 👍

Testing in my lounge at about 12:30EST today if anyone wants

As a note to our European racers: the switch to Standard time is not until this Sunday morning, after the preseason race. Meaning that there is a different of four hours between GMT and Eastern Time for this weekend.

Saturday's programme will be beginning (30 mins later than the regular season events) at:

1:30 PM Eastern US/Can | 5:30 PM GMT

Dinner will be served mid-race for our European friends, and you will find a pleasing shepherd's pie puree inside your in-car feedbag. Simply press the food icon on your steering wheel to receive the liquid nutrition at your convenience.

Under 5 seconds? Good job. I heard that black painted materials spontaneously combust alot when used as cockpits.

And Drum, have you got any blue prints or stuff? I'm going for a design like yours except having a higher side walls. When it is made, I am going to leave enough space on top so that in future I will be able to modify the top to feel like you are in an F1 style cockpit. Might be tough though. Or I could design a roof and door and have my own LMP race car. Or a GT car. Would work well with the DFGT. I have a Renault badge. Hmmm. Maybe...... Or I could create my own FGT cockpit in the white and purple colors!!!

I guarantee that will fail within 5 minutes knowing you!

Argh Precision Racing League on F1 2011 was a total **** up tonight. Restarted the race twice, got heavy rain, and because it wasn't banned, got dominated by all the guys using full TC. And on top of that got wiped off the track twice

 

[MikeTheHockeyFan]

TC = noob **** in the f1 games.

Should be banned for everyone or mandatory for everyone in a league.

 

[jakegirard]

TC = noob ****.

Most of the top guys in this series use TC including me, lol. I think it's more necessary with a DS3 but could be wrong.

Edit: I see you changed your post a bit lol.

 

[C Ronaldo 7]

Thanks for the compliment on my pink Cobra bombe. Barbie...

 

[bermudakid]

Hey is the spreadsheet complete ....... ill fill in who will not be attending tomorrow

It's stupid. The guy setting the fastest laps was 3 seconds a lap faster than me, when he had been 2 seconds a lap slower in dry qualifying 👎

Anyway sorry to swing the tide of the thread. Just needed somewhere to vent my frustration

 

[bombe32]

Jamman, what does "un-ass-ailable" mean?

MU, the Barbie Mobile... clearly you've stolen it from her, probably GTA-style. I feel sorry for both of you

Hope to see you all tomorrow - if you don't attend you'll get negative PR in Monday's news papers.

[jakegirard]

Draft on high? why? I thought we were running the season on low draft?

 

[Peter.]

Why did we ever choose to go with 3 car teams? That will leave someone out, and in this case, it was me. It kills any hopes of a constructors championship challenge.

Ummm Peter in case you didn't notice, there's 5 guys with no car yet. You'll most likely land teammates.

+1

 

[amf7]

Tbh I'm only turning up for the points today... I'm shocking round here and it bores ne to death LOL

Lucky you since I won't be able to make it.

Anyway you guys have fun today and good luck! 👍

......................................................... 👎
Why even bother showing up if you don't want to race? That just makes you an obstacle.

 

[SebVettelFan]

Jamman, what does "un-ass-ailable" mean?

Unassailable -
1.*not open to attack
2.*not subject to denial or dispute

Basically put in this case - is too good to be challenged

Special Time This Week, 30 mins later

Lobby opens at 1:30 PM Eastern [ 5:30 PM UK ///// 1730 GMT ]

So that means the race starts at 6:30 right? And qualifying will be at 6:00?

No point starting the season 20 points down..

exactly why i did it, when i didnt want a pre season , everyone was whinned about it. but the last 2 seasons, only 6-7 guys showed up to the pre-season races cuz - "it doesnt count for anything anyway "

Draft on high? why? I thought we were running the season on low draft?

fine , we can run on low, but you will never overtake anyone on the straight - which will def lead to more accidents

Why did we ever choose to go with 3 car teams? That will leave someone out, and in this case, it was me. It kills any hopes of a constructors championship challenge.

because i wanted 3 car teams. and im the evil dictator around here

 

[C Ronaldo 7]

Best answer ever!

When daylight saving kick in for the US(which is 1AM tomorrow I believe) will you still go at 1:30? That would be 6:30 GMT and I'll be able to race.👍 If not, it may be a struggle...

 

[GT5_X2010]

I put myself down for the 908 and ended up without a team. This whole 3 teams system doesnt work. It is a nice concept but the series has become so popular that series veterans are ending up as reserve drivers.

Hang on, the pre-season counts for points? That just makes it round 1.

So you think you can make one of the three other 'veterans' move aside for the golfer? If your car selection process had been faster you wouldn't be where you are.

Pick one of the others...

And Adam: I still think it's very annoying when you say you don't really want to race... it's like coming for dinner and saying "I'm not really hungry, I'm just here because we get free beer."

Ridiculous. If you hadn't spent so much time changing your mind and larking about with your decision, you would have a seat. No-one to blame but yourself

Drum, MU and Paginas have stated their intention to drive that car from early on. You just turned up from nowhere and expected a seat
--

Btw, can I just get confirmation from someone that today's race starts at 2:30 Eastern/6:30 UK
