[GTP_randy]

Great racing last night by everybody. Gotta love those high speed tracks.

Those vettes going to be hard to beat at monza. Their fast on these fast tracks. I topped out around 206mph this morning. Dint yhink ill be able to keep up.

 

[jay*doc]

Thanks all for coming out last night. I knew my car was slower, but I had no idea how bad it would be.

If there aren't any objections, I may want to change it for next week, to at least keep up and not cause start issues as I did last night.

All in favor say,"YARRRRRRRRRIS"

YARRRRIIISSS!

Last night was fun, less my late race blunders... consistency is always an issue for me... I can keep up for the first half and totally wreck my car the latter half.

Randy... always fun racing with you side by side. I am glad to have a car I can be at pace with you.

Phisher's car is a llllooottt fasssterrrr! Thanks for the push to catch Latenight Rider... not too hard next time so i don't hit the barriers!

 

[Ph1sh]

No problem Johnsom! After I won race 1, I didn't want to run away the next 3 races so I stayed with you guys. Like every turn it looked as I pulled away like I was in a X1. Either way lots of fun laying back!

Thanks Jay for hosting!

YARRRRis! Good racing. I got a little carried away at times. Tried to bust through a cloud of smoke in race 3 like Cole Trickle and slammed somebody hard like Dick Trickle! Anyway good times, good racing by all! Now if we can just catch ph1sh...

YARRRRis!!!!!!

Roy I recall us reeling the phish in last night. Hated to see him spin in the turn. But thats why he's so fast. He drives on the edge,uses every inch of track.

That was the most fun and the closet finish I've had agsinst someone.I think you beat me by0.133 Look firward to racing with everyone of you guys every week

phish we're coming for ya. Great times Turtles

 

[3forSpeed]

It was a little too close for me Lol! My vette is on the edge, it can chain smoke R3s! Looked like I wasn't the only one either! Poor @jay*doc forgot to charge his car before the race! Always good fun racing with you Randy look forward to more

So I chose a new car and got it all broken in, watch out!

My wife even got involved in this one, choosing the car color, rims, and even rims color!

She hands me the remote and says, Big Pimpin, You're Welcome... and walks away. What am I going to do with her!

Well, I got a nice and shiny new PS3, so I'll be seeing you guys this Thursday!

 

[jay*doc]

Good Morning Racers!

I wanted to check in with all of you and make sure we all made it through this weekends crazy weather unscathed! I know the storms crossed some of our states, I think the closest of us would be MBOBB, so until we know he's OK, keep him and his family in your thoughts!

Thanks!
Jay

You can not go wrong with letting the wife decide whats best! Lol & and you can't go wrong with Corvettes either! The extension cord on your Tesla was a little too short!

 

[3forSpeed]

I had a blast doing this event. I love rally racing, even though my skills leave much to desire. The surfaces made for some very interesting 1st laps. I found the race at Nurb was slicker than Chamonix! I hope we have more rally events in the future! Big fun racing with the guys from C.R.A.P! Maybe we can do some interleague racing in the future as well?
*edit* sorry meant to post in Enduro thread!

 

[jay*doc]

So it's official, I'm not using my Tesla Thursday!



Also, what's the deal with the height of that fire hydrant?

[jay*doc]

So who's ready for some HST at Monza?! Only 2 days away and I can't wait to turn my Vette loose!

How's everyone doing otherwise? It's been pretty quiet on the thread this week. I talked to MBOBB, he and his family are fine and was not affected by the tornados. I'm gearing up for Christmas at the jay*doc and meech homestead, already got our outside lights done with the nice weather we've been having. Anyhow, hope everyone is doing well!

 

[Ph1sh]

Good to hear MBobb is okay! Man oh man..my saleen S7..monza...holy acceleration..

 

[3forSpeed]

Everything is well here. Glad to hear some escaped the storms unscathed. As for Gt5, only those with true grit left now. The end of a game cycle is kind of a new experience for me. My 1 year anniversary is the same week that Gt6 releases. It looks like a strong finish to a good year! I hope the new game/year opens new opportunities for Turtle! And @jay*doc how could you not see THAT fire hydrant?

 

[BionicDerp]

I was bored, so I suped up a Pontiac GTO '04. It's faster and better to drive than the Callaway C12. xD

 

[jay*doc]

Only 2 days away and I can't wait to turn my Vette loose!

I must be losing my mind, it's tomorrow night! I've been working too much.

@3forSpeed I guess I fell asleep at the wheel!

 

[GTP_randy]

Hey everybody, sorry ive been so quite latly. Been really busy. I love my new g27 but as I knew, im slower with it rite now. Only able to run 1.33's and 1.34's when I can keep it on the track. But it is an awesome feeling using a wheel instead of ds3.

I am ordering an Obutto Ozone racing seat this week too. Thanks fir the suggestion phish. 👍 Msybe by the first of the year ill be able to keep up with you guys again.

So tonight ill be riding around in the back with a big smile on my face. See ya at Monza!!!

Awesome Randy!! You will love the seat! And of course the wheel! You will get faster just takes time, well it took me like 1 day, then others said i starting to get faster.

 

[GTRacer22]

I'm depressed because I can't make it tonight yet again, but I'll see you guys in December!

 

[jay*doc]

Nights like last night are what make this series such a success. Great racing, great conversation, and lots of laughs!

It's time time to dust off the eighties and get a car ready for December. As of right now, we will continue to use GT5 for December, as long as online play stays supported. If online does get shut down for GT5, we will continue the month in GT6.

Photos of last night coming over the weekend!

 

[Ph1sh]

Good racing last night fellas! Lots of fun like always! Thanks Jay for hosting again!

 

[GTRacer22]

Last night was full of great racing! And I would like to thank @Latenight Rider for doing the right thing when he accidentally punted me off the track and letting me back by him. It's great to be a part of this series!

They would be crazy to stop online racing in GT5 in December. Not everyone will get GT6 the day it comes out, so it'll still go for a little bit longer than that, IMHO.

I agree, just some hear say online, but nothing but speculation. I like to have all angles covered, in case they do take GT5 down.

 

[BionicDerp]

I think I'm going to be testing cars stock on Top Gear for fun tonight until 8EST in about 15 minutes for the challenge if anyone wants to show up (Turtle Practice).

I doubt that the racing servers are going to be shut down. I'm guessing more the GT-TV services, etc.

 

[3forSpeed]

I have been concerned how the whole transition will go. I think the powers that be will let us know something officially when the plug will be pulled on Gt5. Everyone who gets 6 even the first day will have work to do to be able to race anything. I am willing to race in 5 with people who can not move on right away. I still play 4 on occasion with a buddy of mine!
