I'd love to join in. I'll vote now, but i will say look up gt5's major online bug. There's threads on it in here, and it only affects the difference between the timers of each player. In other words, lag. Ways to prevent it are blocking things like mic's, and limiting the amount of people joining the room.
I say this because people with equipment like headsets and wheels will be more prone to this (research shows anyway), and if there are close times the lag could sway the result either way.
 
Oh really? WTH. I'll look it up. Thanks for that.

I was planning on not allowing mic's.

What is the player count I should shoot for?

I have about the fastest connection you can get these days. Will that help?
 
I'm on about 8M/s, and as long as I clear my cache I have no problems. Mind you, its just down to the quality of the servers most of the time anyway (they're usually quite slow).
Anywhere less than 12 players should be Ok, the bug shouldn't really affect the timers much then.
 
digital, I want to advise you and notify that useless posts could lead to being banned, or any other punishment. Though, if there's changes, you can edit your posts.

Wow, wasn't expecting this, the win or the prizes, heh. Just noticed I received 6 prizes for winning this, thanks DigitalRacing.

I got a brand new Murciélago Super Veloce, 1 grey metalic paint, 2 suits and 2 helmets. Nice one DigitalRacing, thanks again.

I'll be running this next time it's on! :D
 
No prob man. It only gets better ;-)

I expected a higher turn out, but I guess not.

Maybe my marketing efforts weren't there.

Look for another time attack session next week.
