what the heck am i doing wrong? ^^ or isn't the 3000gt very fast on this track? not that i have been practising much but i shouldn't be that far off? or maybe i should..
 
Well we always thought certain cars would shine on certain tracks, and thats part of the beauty of this season.
 
I'm not gonna be that far back though, have to practise later :P vill the lobby be up 40 minutes ahead of qualifying? ^^
 
Finally I had some time to try out the Supra and did a 2:13.108 online, much depends on that first righthand corner!
 
Hi, this sounds like fun, I'm in if there is room. If so I'll be driving the Toyota Celica SS-II (ZZT231) '99. Sending friend request on PSN...

Just read the rules very carefully and pay extra care to other racers. They are competing for the championship.
 
Thanks, have read the rules and done some practising.

Todays track is Special stage 5 right?
 
It's only 6:00PM GMT. Why has the race already started? The first post says the race starts at 6:20PM GMT.

Oh ****... Sorry mate, GMT went back an hour last sunday. Completely forgot to ask if this would mess anyones schedule up
 
Well this was an unfortunate result for me (immense hatred of AI now raised thanks to its amazing job of recovering). However I can't argue with the feat of climbing from 6th to 2nd.

Congrats to Niko! The plus side of this is that it would get boring if I was first every single time.

That's ok :(.

GMT did not go back an hour though. GMT never changes, as far as I understand. Your local time zone changed. Before daylight savings my time zone was MST (GMT - 7hr); now my time zone is MDS (GMT -6hr).

Am I wrong? Google says it is 6:28 GMT right now.

United Kingdom not on GMT in the summer
The United Kingdom is not on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) when it observes daylight saving time in the summer months in the northern hemisphere. In fact, it observes British Summer Time (BST), which is one hour ahead of GMT, in this period.

Daylight Saving Time taken into Account
The United Kingdom moves its clocks forward by one hour during the last Sunday of March until the last Sunday of October, thus observing BST instead of GMT during this period. After the daylight saving period, the United Kingdom shifts back to GMT, which is in the same time zone as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

UTC/GMT does not change during the daylight saving period because it does not observe daylight saving time. Time zones around the world are expressed as positive or negative offsets from UTC. So when the United Kingdom observes BST during the daylight saving period, also known as summer time, it is one hour ahead of UTC/GMT during the summer. UTC/GMT is used all year in countries such as Iceland but it is used only during the winter months in Ireland and most the United Kingdom, which includes England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. BST does not apply to overseas territories of the United Kingdom, such as the British Virgin Islands and Gibraltar.

Congrats Niko! Seeing Sumo closing in in my rearmirror with just 2 laps to go, was ..lets say ..nervewrecking..:)
 
Was on to get podium maybe, or 4th, as me and Baku fought for third. Unfortunatly our fight had slowed us down and Sumo ended up coming up on the inside forcing me to brake early and I ended up hitting the wall. Came back to beat baku to 4th by 0.001 secs!
 
I'm interested to know any best laps if you can recall them. Mine was around 2'10.550
 
i would like to join this series if possible, hope it is not too late. i will let you know what car later as i will be doing a bit of practice as soon as i have convinced my other half that she looks tired and she should have a nice early night!!!
 
I did a 2:12.8 high sometime i think.. over a second better than my quali :P but well my quali got pretty messed up by traffic. almost all my laps in the race were faster.

edit: i noticed how much faster you can go if you're behind someone on one of the first laps though when i did a 2:13:2 while chasing baku :P helps with slipstream and some help with the lines for me sometimes ^^ my fastest one i made when i was alone though.. the interesting thing in the second half of the race was to watch sumo advance in the table to the right :P oh yeah and to see if i could get away any from ID..
