No I didnt ragequit, I told my dad that I would mow the lawn after I finish the race and if I crashed early and was out and would just be making laps I would leave, so I did. Sorry bout that

Apologies mate, for saying you did. 👍
 
Sorry to report this guys but I still won't have a connection by this Tuesday. My roommates are stalling on getting a router and I can't afford to front $140 myself. Tom I'll leave it up to you whether you would like to delay the US season another week or have someone else host until I can get connected.

Read the OP mate, we've decided to hold all US races in Knelly's lounge. So that way you can still be the host of the room and organize things 👍

EDIT: Indy results up tonight when I get back from school.
 
So I may have come up with something to get online. Just found out how to wireless tether with my Android phone, and have been able to get my laptop online :) Going to test it out on my PS3 later and see if it has a fast and stable enough connection to race online until we can get a router set up at my roommates parents house down the road. Wish me luck... I'm going to need it lol.

EDIT: Just looked over at my phone and I'm currently at 2.9 MB/s! Holy %$*# we may be able to run this Tuesday after all!!!

EDIT 2: 6.1 MB/s and climbing. Looking Good!!!

So Knelly will be holding the USA race on Tues., along with the UK race on Wed.

I'll pace the US race in my green SRT. :sly:
 
That's good news LV! :) Yep Rich, we're gonna test out my lounge before then for possible UK series use, since I can't get in otherwise. But the US series is definitely in Knelly's lounge 👍

EDIT: MarkWhite5150 has completely disappeared from GTP, searched the member list for him and nothing came up. Should I drop him? Would leave us with 2 reserves, pretty much guarantees everyone a race.

i finally got my power back too last night. (curse you cl&p)

looks like the one team that was falling apart is back at it, though i might be useless because ive had no practice

That's good news, you've got time to cram in a few practice laps 👍 And sorry I couldn't get to the testing session LV, I was running as a reserve in the WSM at five minutes notice.

EDIT: And I've already got my first racing drivers excuse lined up for Wednesday night. 'I've been revising for a GCSE biology test on Tuesday and a GCSE Math's test on Wednesday therefore I've had nowhere near enough time to practice' ;)

I didn't even know there was a testing session lol. I want to host a practice session tonight to see if I have the ability to host. If anyone is interested let me know
 
Ah sorry, I thought you sent me a PSN message earlier :lol: Knelly, my dad has been putting off drilling a hole in the wall for this ethernet cable. We're doing it tomorrow night though so should be able to do a quick connection test before I have to do some more revision.

Mark has been practicing, and is planning on racing. His gtp account is still banned though lol.
 
Are we racing tomorrow night? What time I might be able to race.

The US Series kicks off tomorrow (Tuesday November 08th), with the first race starting in Europe at Madrid.

Room Open & Free Practice--20:30 EST
Qualifying--21:00
Race--21:30
Estimated Finish--22:15/22:30

This will be 48 + 1 Laps (100 miles) and please ask all to adhere to the specs on the OP.

It is unclear just now whose room this will be in, as will depend on LV's thoughts and connection. However, if it is my Room, then I will not be there (but should allow you all in if you are Friends with me), so will need someone else to run the race event (settings / controlling schedule etc).

Have a great opening event race guys 👍

I am looking forward to this. I will send a Friend request to yourself and LV tonight just to cover all of the bases.
 
I must add Knelly, I hope I don't forget.

Please remember, please remember, please remember............. Lol
 
It is with deep regret I will have to pull out this year's IndyCar Series. For a variety of personal reasons, there will be no chance of me participating in any full time race this season mid-week. Sorry guys but the field is really competitive anyway so you shouldn't miss me too much :)

EDIT: I also apologise to my Lotus teammates but you guys should be fine without me.
 
You should probably pencil me in as a reserve as I don't know if I can truely dedicate 100% to this great series. But trust me...I will be there for at least a few of these races. Keep rockn' guys!

Gutted mate, but will see you in NASCAR no doubt.

Oh no, they're dropping like flies. Same goes for you Crazy 👍
 
Not so much of a problem for the US, more of a problem for the UK. Tom said to me the other day that he was unsure.

Sorry, Coach but I'm about to write the same thing for NASCAR and Furi's Trucks, other matters have caught with me and I just can't make any series right now.

Season 3 might be the one for me to run full time in 2012 and it would be pretty cool to write a 'racing cv' to team owners (like yourself) for a full time ride - I like that kinda thing strangely...

Anywho, sorry buddy.
 
I would just like to reiterate, any US drivers who want to join us for our UK races are more than welcome!

Originally Joe suggested you only compete for one division, but that might deter people from coming along on Wednesday's so your points WILL count towards the UK standings (you could theoretically win both divisions), but not the Intercontinental standings as this would be unfair on guys who only race once a week.

And finally the best two team results from each round count to the constructors title, one round consisting of the US race and the UK race.
 
Ugh, I'm really sorry but I think I'm going to have to drop out of this. I underestimated my amount of school work and plans I have. Sorry again, I'll see you all round 👍
