Is there any possibility to just watch you guys race?

 

[n0iZe83]

Just joined the lounge and about to set everything up.
Feel free to join anytime.

The lounge Friends Lists' are close to the max allowed number (100), and the lounges have a good chance of being full for all 4 races.

You best chance will be if @oink83 streams his races. 👍

I expect to stream the whole weekend, so feel free to tune in to any of the races. I'll be posting links in this thread when the events are going live, so keep an eye out.

 

[karelpipa]

Okay, thats more than good enough. Will keep an eye on this. Thanks!

 

[Nish]

I plan on trying to get into all 4 races but I think I will put race 2 reserve until I am 100% sure. That's if I can squeeze in though.

 

[GTP_Patrick1]

The BRZ FRS GT race should be lots of fun. Daniel and I had a short 5 lapper, in which he won by .13 seconds.

What is the quickest way to break in the Alfa when I don't have a high enough level to do the endurance

Do you have Route X?

There's also "Like the Wind" on the level before the enduro. Run that a few times and you'll be broken in.

 

[Nish]

I just use whatever track the future race will be on in practice mode. It counts as mileage and you get practice and testing for fuel mileage/tire wear.

 

[gtpcaine]

Just signed as reserve for races 1,2 and 4. Looking forward to it

 

[Doodle]

I canceled my entries for races 2 and 4. Looking forward to racing races 1 and 3 this weekend. The competition looks great!

 

[n0iZe83]

I would like to do some practice tonight in the B lounge.
I can join from 19:00 GMT to 20:30 GMT.
Is there someone interested to do some laps with me?

I'll be in the main lounge for practice for wednesday's race, but I'll check the thread to see if your still in and switch over if anyone's still about.

 

[GTPCrispyOne]

I have not been able to do any of the Wednesday races since I joined, but the stars are finally aligning! I have Saturday free but have obligations on Sunday, so the BRZ and the Golf it is! I may not get any time to do the TT this week, though, for now I must practice!!!

I think it's cool that my first official WRS event is GT5's last.

 

[n0iZe83]

Currently in the B lounge, doing some laps in the Golf.
Join anytime.

For TZ2, TZU,

• Performance Points: 494 PP

Does this refer to break-in without oil change?

 

[LeftyWright69]

I guess I don't have a BRZ /FR-S Humf

I guess I don't have the Alpha either bummer

I'm shaking down what I can in the B lobby

The event is tuning prohibited. That means aero has to be reset to default, which will make the pp go down from 499 to 494 pp.

EDIT: ok, scratch that, I had old oil (still a strange coincidence it went to exactly 494 pp after I reset the aero ). I now have 501 pp. There must be something else to reset as well... But I just had a look, and I don't see what it could be, though.

 

[Gravitron]

Will double-check it in 30mins, my mistake if it is wrong.

Then going to practice one of the combos right after that. Will post here when it's setup.

 

[Allibubba99]

I am out this weekend guys, Sorry.

Al

Apologies, guys, you are correct on the Alfa, 501pp and 178hp with full break-in and oil change. My oil was dirty.


And now for the good news:

Lounge splitting procedure

For this final WRS Special event, we don't want for anyone to have to miss out due to numbers. For this reason, we will use multiple lounges to accommodate all registered drivers.

• For < 16 we will use GTP_3D3Racing lounge as per normal
• For exactly 16, we will use a stewards personal lounge to allow a full 16 driver grid to race
• For anything > 16, the lounge will be split down the middle. In this instance, room allocation will be made based on handicap for our normal pre-qualification procedures. Once quali is complete, the rooms will be shuffled based on quali results. Some drivers may need to switch to the other lounge.

To help us keep this as smooth as possible, please update your registration as early as possible, so we get a good idea of numbers. We will also want to start quali promptly so that we do not run on too long, so please ensure you get to your designated lounge at least 10 minutes prior to the event start time. Lounge assignments will be announced closer to the event.


EDIT: Joining the main lounge shortly to practice the Golf RM @ GP/D, as that's the one I have zero experience with.

 

[Ealirendur]

I'm bitterly disappointed, but the only slot I can manage is the Golf - my heart was set on the TZ2, but 3am on a Monday is beyond me at the moment. See you at GP/D!

 

[Gravitron]

We'll take ya where we can get 'cha, @Ealirendur.

 

[Doodle]

I'm gonna have to cancel my entry for GT out that BRZ before you FRS because I just planned a date with my girlfriend at that exact time. Sorry guys.

Wait wait wait. Let me get this straight. YOU planned the date? It might have been excuse if she had planned it, but that is poor commitment...

What I meant to say is, she planned it, and I accepted it.

 

[gm matthew]

Signed up as a reserve for each race at the moment. I'm at my father's house this week, so while I can still play GT6 with a DFGT, my time will be more limited, plus I have the PURE JGTS to compete in. I highly doubt I'll be able to attend all the races, but I'll see what I can do.

 

[Gravitron]

I'm looking good for all 4, surprisingly.

I'm about to jump in the main lounge for some tire/fuel runs on multiple combos.
