GTRRL|SuperGT Challenge Series Sign Ups Open! Rd 5 Suzuka Aug. 25th

[alefin]

Don't really know if any of it matters, but maybe you can pick and choose to try certain things out. I think my connection is pretty stable, maybe got disconnected 3 times over the past 1.5 years.

I have my PS3 wired to my router. PS3 is on a static IP address, made sure that these ports are open (80, 443, 5223, 5658, 3478-3479, 9293, 10070-10080, 50100), have it on a Quality of Service with priority over other network traffic.

PS3 Internet Network Connection Test says my PS3 is NAT 2, also made sure that Media Server is off on PS3. That's everything I can think of for my own settings. I live on east coast, USA.

On another topic, does anyone have a replay file for the Saturday race?

He was talking about taking the file from ps3 and zipping it and putting it here online so he can download it to his ps3 and watch it.

However I have a bit of a problem with the way GT500 drivers come up to lap us GT300's...Do we not have the racing line? And 500's have to safely go around us right? I understand if a GT500 is side by side with a 300 before braking but when they come bulldozing through when us 300's have turned half way through to the corner results in losing quiet a bit of time...This happened to me and as a result I lost the draft to the 3rd placed driver....I think the lapping rule needs to be highlighted more often...

The 300s do have the racing line. It is the 500s job to safely make it around them. Reminder: If 500s make contact with 300s the 500 is at fault and could be subject to penalties. The 500s can't bully their way around the 300 cars...

ya KK if a 500 car(s) forced their way around you by moving you out of the way then that wasn't right and would get a penalty, just report to the stewards that were there in a PM what laps and what happened etc and we'll get it taken care of. wish I could of been there to race with you again, its been awhile, same with a few other guys.

Here's a bit of a bad example of a 500 car passing a 300 car



Stuff like this 500 cars need to try to avoid. He had a good line going into there but then used the side of the 300 car to pass. That's a good corner to pass just not the best execution. Even in really tough corners, 500 cars need to tip-toe when coming onto the 300 cars.

To begin I would like to apologize for any trouble I gave any in last nights race it was a pretty fun race and enjoyed it, I already apologized to zack but I'll say it again I am sorry for the bump I gave u. I think the lag most part of it cause I could not see where he was really but can't blame it on the lag for getting into grass I could of slowed Down more. I would also like to apologize to king and also dragon mostly king, I was following mike and I clearly didn't read that part of the rules. Once again i am sorry to everyone I don't want a bad rap in going into this season or the rest of this season. I think this season will be great. The 300s car people if I taped u in any way I would also like to Apologize.
