mann i'm glad i took the petronas, i wanted to team up with erik but i totally forgot to choose the car at the right time.. it just convinced me its better than the gtr to be honest.. & if ill be back in time for S4 wich i doubt.. probably mid season ill be back id keep going for the sc430.. its a beast car and now i understand why so many teams keep the sc430 in super gt instead of the lfa..

but maxi.. what would you do if you were in my place?? i was 1st & messed everything up it was a mess.. just keep ur head up ur a good driver.

anyone participating gtacademy?? ill be giving it a go in this week till i leave ..
 
but maxi.. what would you do if you were in my place??

Probably hit myself!? How could you lay on wrong tyres? :sly: But seriously its not the weak result that makes me angry. I can cope whit that Like i did in whole season 1, half of season 2 and at Monza this season, Laguana/Monaco.


I don't know yet what car i should use for season 4.
I was thinking about going to the NSX. but whit the new hard tyre rule i doubt.
I could keep the same car. I know more or less how it works and it can save me time to setup the car.
The NSX is somewhat difficult to drive but much more fun and fast. i have to test it on hard tyres though.
The Lexus seems to be fast. at everybody who used it seems to be happy about it. But i do not know how it works.

Gonna try the GT-academy. But i have no high hopes.
 
i was doing good last year i was top 5 in netherlands but i did have to go on a work trip for 3 months so i had to quit.. this time its no different i think i could finish up pretty high?, but imo immortal has it all in the bag for germany imo!

we should aim for the top here, i would love to see someone from this league go to the end and win it all, because i think we here in this league have it all
 
I didn't think about entering the GT Academy but I think I will , I have no idea how to enter though so I will check that out this evening when I get home .
 
I remember from last year something about needing a full driving license for gt academy which would rule me out but I'll still do the time trials when I'm not revising.
As for the team championship, how about we only let the second place finisher put points towards their team; if a team only has a person in the race: nil points. We would obviously need an even amount of players.

That doesn't change the fact if a teammate drops out the team get hurt.

maybe only the first driver get points.
in this point system
16
14
13
12
11
10
9
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1

if you get 2 cars on podium 3 bonus points
if you get 2 cars on top 6 2 bonus points
if you get 2 cars on top 10 1 bonus points

This way a team can still can score good points if the other driver can't make it . But for those who end up high whit 2 cars they get some extra points.


So if immortal end on 2nd and netherdragon on 3rd. they get 14+3 17 points
If Adam wins and propersian don't show up. the team gets 16 points.
If i finish 5th and erik 6th. we get . 11+2=13 points
Then if your team mate is faster its smart to let him go.

Maybe its to complicated? its just a idea...
 
Anything to encourage team work is fantastic. In fact, only the top finisher scoring points is how it works in bike racing. But on a more realistic note; you'd have been better saying "if ProPersian wins and Adam doesn't show" :D
 
Did we even see two teammates on the podium in the same race this season ?

That's not a bad idea Maxi , we have a lot to decide during the pre season

I'm from Norway, so no point in it. Not been allowed both the times they said Europe was part of it. I guess they believe Scandinavia is a world section of its own.

I heard some Americans believe Norway was the capital of Sweden, but I guess you have to be Japanese to look at Europe that way!

So no I wont be participating in it.
 
Your not wrong Arkano (I wish you were, being 41 now so I'm getting old. But tomorrow I guess I forget about it and I'm back to feeling 25 again)

Thank you both for your congratulations ;)


EDIT:

Tommy Rustad new Volvo for 2012 season of STCC

I'm just really exited

Happy birthday Erik, considering the GT Academy, Greece and Norway will be able to download the game, but I think they won't be allowed to participate in the final round.
 
In other words it would just be like competing in a championship and not get the points for it. Or its even worse as I play to race and not to do endless grinding on a time trial ;) I think I drop it even if it's free.

I wish everyone participating good luck of course. Would be cool to actually been racing GT5 with someone becoming a real race driver ;) After seeing IMMORTALPILOTS time trail times in seasonal's he should have a fair chance to get a long way. If he have a licence to drive a car of course.. isn't that required?

Oh and I wont be drinking tonight, I guess a calm easy time home relaxing and enjoying life is what I want to do.
 
He is already top 50, don't worry, he is one good driver, he will make it to the national finals i guess.
It's worth giving it a try, it's just like a new set of licenses.

I think it require other licenses. They will get trained. So i doubt You need a drivers license for use on the road, i guess.


I remember a funny thing in F1. A young driver (i don't remember who) had recieved his Super-licence that was needed to drive f1 races. This driver had no other licenses for the road. So when they were on a certain event at the championship he wasn't allowed to inspect the track whit a car, instead he had to walk, use a bike or someone else to drive him untill the raceweekend started :)


Anyway, happy birhtday. And remember: You're only as old as you feel.... :)
 
I haven't even practiced for nurburgring yet , I will get started this friday and spend all day saturday as usual .

I think I will check out the GT academy today or tomorrow .

Can I still enter even though I have a USA copy of the game and psn account ?

Yes I guess, all you need is to download it earlier cause it can take you a day if you have a crappy connection (3GB)
 
The GT Academy isn't even downloadable here, they even removed access to the DLC's.. Great!!

Not that it matter much, but how lame is that!
 
Im sorry but I wont be able to make the last race even though its at my favorite track. I have a bowling tournament. With the two weeks of spa it made the league last one week too long. Hope to hear from everybody about season 4. If someone would like to be teammates with me send me a pm. thanks.

ps. found my old ps2 and played toca 3 and i really recommend it. Great racing game check it out.

The whole series is great, I don't have a PS2 my self, but with Toca 2 being my first ever racing game in PSP, I can say it is just wonderful.
 
Now it's Friday and I haven't seen anyone sign up for the race tomorrow. Do we do like Arkano wished for? postpone it a week?

I would like to see as many as possible on our final race, it's a big track and it would be great to see everyone on track.
 
I'm sorry , I've been busy and a bit tired this week . That's why I haven't even practiced yet which is very unlike me , I am available to race tomorrow and next week and I don't mind waiting a week .

So I will let you guys decide , I guess its up to a majority vote .

We seem to have less people signing up in these last few races .

I will still be online tomorrow either way practicing :)
 
Signup for rd 12 Nürburgring 24h (local start time set to 14:30 with time progression set to 5)
Weather will be set to 0-0-0
