I wasn't going to submit anything because of the faulty wheel story many of you know about... :guilty:

But the not submitting and having to wait untill March started haunting me and made me completaly restless... :nervous::nervous:

But today a great mate(also a member here...) talked me into submitting anyways,even though i am taking the risk of ending up in a division lower than i usually am capable of. :ill:

So i spend 2 hours today (1 hour per sector) to get everything out of my wheel possible...this whas very difficult because i had to exit the event every 5 minutes to go and run a practice run on sport tires to get my wheel back into shape!!..

Don't ask me how this is possible,but after i run a few laps with a slow car on sports ,my wheel gets a bit better and so i could run several sessions of the qualifier... :crazy:

I have absolutaly no idea what my times will bring me,mainly because of the very little info i get from my wheels ffb ,so wether or not i will deeply regret submitting today well...i just have to wait and see.... :scared:

Anyway,i do feel a lot better now having submitted and want to thank the person very much to push me over the line into doing so... 👍👍👍



Hoping to a happy end to all of this... :)

I'm not sure whether to be happy or sad, probably a bit of both. I'm glad that I will get the chance to try and beat you from the start, but there's also the chance that we now start off in the same division and that you will beat me in 'our' division every single time, until you get promoted to your proper place. :lol:


edit> on a more serious note: One of our longtime WRS participants (Marooned) lives in Egypt and my thoughts are with him during this time of troubles in his country.

It's good to hear you managed a time and submitted. 👍

Just my guess but I still think your time will be pretty quick.

Cheers Shaun.
 
Now that you've posted, and your post has been approved, you should be able to send your PM to me.

I have a friend who posted and seems to have been approved, but he still cannot PM and is now going to miss the deadline because of it, can you do something about that? :P
 
Time submitted. Not that happy with it. I left it too long to really start and then I've been madly busy the past couple of weeks. That said, I probably spent as long on it as a normal WRS so it's probably a true reflection of my mediocrity :)
 
Finally submitted my times... for good or ill. Have a minor hope that I do better than I did with my GT5 Prologue qualifier since I'm using a G25 now (Driving Force EX previously) but in such fine company as this, I don't mind where I end up; at least the racing will be clean and fun.

Best wishes and luck to us all.... :)

You know, it just feels good that GTP is "kicking off" again. Its been good to hit the track and find GTP members lurking around online but with the registry starting up, it feels like we're moving.

And this is how we roll. :)
 
Submissions window is now closed.

What about those who couldn't submit due to not having a post approved in time?

I don't believe any of the newcomers would be aware that an admin has to manually approve their posts before they can PM.
 
Got in with about half an hour to go. Planned on getting a couple days more practice but no PS3 for the past three days. Good luck to everyone on qualifier placement.
 
Looking foward to seeing where everybody gets. I probably could have taken off half a second but didn't have the time for it. :)
 
Thanks to all the WRS mods who put in the time to organize this. Good Luck to everyone and their respective placings. Excited, although I should be doing my Marketing studies haha.
 
Can I PM for my friend his PM is still not enabled

EDIT: I missed the CLOSE post :(
Time Difference issue
 
Submitted my time a long time ago. Looking forward to what everyone gets. Thanks again to WRS admins for setting this up. :)
 
Done, found 1 second in sector 2 after 5 laps, and half a second in sector 3 after 5 (clean laps). I had about 10 laps where I just fell off the carrousel. And that last corner in sector 2, I don't think I'll ever get it right.

Ugh Bergwerk... It always seems to just sneak up on you!
