Its also a Cars' song.

I am impressed that a youngster like yourself even knows 'the cars'. It brings back memories of my 'eighthies' period

I know Mitch, and it was ment to be a joke Calling you a 'youngster' would mean as being 45 myself, I would fit in that catgory aswell.

Calling you a 'youngster' would mean as being 45 myself, I would fit in that category as well.

I like that 👍

Ah, ok....sorry. Its just past 7am here and I just woke up, guess my sense of humor isn't awake yet.

Well that was unexpected! I thought I'd been missed out when I couldn't see me in Div 2. Division 1? I can't say I'm not pleased with that but I'm not sure I'll be able to keep up. I just hope I don't embarrass myself too badly.

Profuse thanks to the admins for great organisation and efficiency. Is it me or does everything seem even more streamlined and professional now? 👍 Looking forward to some clean and close racing with some of the finest gentlemen racers around. Daliwch ati!

There seem to be a lot of old sods dogs in the WRS.

WRS= Weekly Racing Seniors now??

 

[Killermiller24]

I'm happy with my D4G..good enough for a onehanded DS3-player (clavicular fracture 3 weeks ago)...sure, at the seasonal-TT's im normally under the top 200...so i hope i can promote to a better division...I dont know how it works, but if i drive fast i hope promotions are possible...but first im happy to be part of the WRS....

 

[Argon]

That's tough @Killermiller24 , hope it heal fast for you. I've seen your times in the TT's and you should get promotions pretty fast but it may take you a couple of jumps to get to where you should be when playing with both hands.

Do the weekly TT's, put you best times in, be patient and you'll get there 👍

Veterans mate, veterans. So its Veteran's Race Series = VRS

...which sounds fast so I'm good with that. 👍

Age is not necessarily a barrier to speed

Pretty sure Ramon (Eclipse) is in his 40's.

I don't think @Twissy is a young buck, either.

And he seems pretty quick, from where I am sitting.

Maybe PD should introduce this then:

Well done to the Admins on such a quick turnaround and 2 challenging qualifiers. I am happy with D3Silver, it is an improvement from GT5.

And on the that note, the main reason for this post is that i have compiled a list of all the people who to part in the GT5 qualifier and GT6 qualifier to compare how they have done as i was interested to see whether i had improved or not.

Anyway, attached is a simple excel spreadsheet compiled by their GTPlanet name.

Props to otxjto, GTP_CargoRatt, Gravitron, millross, Allibubba99 for achieving over a -2.000 drop in handicap but special congrats has to go to MilleRSVR and Racingworld68 who both achieved over -2.500 drop in handicap from the GT5 Qualifier.

Hope that this is of interest to those of you who have taken part in both, just thought i would offer the info.

...a list of all the people who to part in the GT5 qualifier and GT6 qualifier to compare how they have done as i was interested to see whether i had improved or not.

What jumps out at me is that most of the drivers at the top of the list have been regular competitors in the WRS time trials. Those at the bottom, generally less active. Nice work Tim.

Division 2 Silver, happy with that. 👍

 

[pipedog2007]

Just wondering if i missed the qualification because i Can't see if theres a time limit . First time post on here and looks like this is right up my street so i look forward to racing you all btw i am not new sim racing just this site , thanks pipedog._._.

I hadn't really noticed that, if i get time i might try and add a column for how many TT event weeks people have entered. It might be the proof people might need (and me) to try and enter on a more regular basis. Thanks Wilco

Yeah, but that 156 in Alien years.

Thanks Tim for the spreadsheet 👍

Happy to see that for once I am on top of a list

Don't know about you guys, but I can hardly wait to get started on that first TT ; Some say.... it will be something really special.

From a personal point of view...

I was D1S in GT5P and ran lots of WRS events, but ended up in D1G in GT5 - most likely because I knew the Ring really well and put too much time in to the qualifier. Having to compete on a level stage with the likes of Ramon and Zoky was a too much for me and I didn't run many events.

This time I put a sensible amount of time in to the qualifier, and I also think the Admins have got the divisional splits better in 6 than 5... D1G should always be for those tht are super fast, not merely quick.

It's just re-opened again after the initial qualifying round and there is no time limit now unless the Admins need to take a breather but we generally shoot them if they do that...labour is cheap
Welcome to and the WRS
