I read on a PSN blog that many areas especially NA are not working. I just tried it now and it worked tho.

I think this is the problem: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6306945.html?tag=latestheadlines;title;3

It's long, so make sure you have the time.

Putting pics up too, right Jav?! lol, I don't know why, but I get all amped for the pics!

 

[Sephy]

Just a suggestion, but remember how Sephy had that incredible time during qualifying?
He said that it was because he said he missed the braking point or something like that for the corkscrew.
Could we turn penalties on strong just for qualifying?

This would help in the aspect of preventing times like Stephys from happening (I'm not denying that he gained the poll position, just saying that it's possible that someone like me couldve done that even accidentally like he did) and it would aid in mixed qualifying so we don't have to worry about GT1 times being ruined due to needing to get around GT2 drivers.

Again, just my 2 cents.

LOL I didn't cut the corner. I said I managed that time because I nailed the corkscrew and it's usually my weak point on that track by not hitting the braking point just right and slowing down too much or by giving too much throttle on exit and fishtailing. I don't corner cut...

 

[Jav]

I think everybody has just become more comfortable with everybody else, so we're pushing harder than we need to be. We've all pretty much become aquainted and been freindly, so we're being a little more bold on the track.

You are dead on, that's exactly what it was. We learned from the session and we are now looking at a good start of the season!

Pics are coming as soon as I get home!

 

[MajikTom]

Uh-oh, serious competition just arrived! Welcome to GT1! Hope you get to run soon...if we run as close in GT1 as we do in the NA GT500 series this is going to get really interesting.

 

[Jav]

Ok! As promised some pics from Laguna's pre-season test!

The pre-grid, Laguna and a full grid is a beautiful thing!

And we roll of to the pace lap!

And the battle heats up!

It gets intense

Then it goes up in smoke and gravel!

Bringing it home after an intense and tresorous race one more corner to go!

How can a win be a win at Laguna without some Zanardi donuts!

Can't lie, it tastes sweet even if it is just practice!

Lol!! The alien has landed! We got some serious competition now!

 

[MajikTom]

Yea finally MB signed up! Now I have more incentive to push less. Old dogs can learn new tricks, and MB's smooth corner entries are making me unlearn bad old habits. Nice runs in the Zed today bud. Got a few shots.

Jav, post those pics in the GTPFIA League Group Album. I'll post mine there soon...
Some really nice ones. I like the one where you're about to take out the road marker. Looks purposeful.

 

[Jav]

Lol!! That's what I hate the most about Laguna, there's always some a$$clown like me that take the markers out and then everyone gets lost on the braking zone!

 

[Sephy]

Nice pictures!

 

[MtBeR4LiFe889]

Lol!! The alien has landed! We got some serious competition now!

Not even Commander Shepherd can stop this alien!! Muhahahaha . Hope I get in some races with ultrap!

glad i dont use markers, i just feel it out!

 

[Jav]

Yea eventually you just have to pick another reference for braking, but it takes a few laps to get it perfect again.

I was online till around midnight with no issues. Actually was fine all evening and night.

Read about the attack. And to be honest. I would do bad things to those people in person. DONT F WITH MY RACING! hahahahaha surely many of you would join me in this crusade.

 

[Jav]

Lol!! I'm in on the crusade!! Burn them all!!!!

 

[gogatrs]

I don't know if you guys have seen Borat before but...
Throw Sony down the well!

We must grab them by their horns!
And then we have a big party!

I have a quick question about the car list:

Why isn't the road-going Nissan GT-R allowed? Is there something special about the car that makes it advantageous than the others? Sorry if this is asked before. I don't feel like flipping around the thread.
