Get the FR in a.s.a.p. to assure acceptance in advance of racing.
In order to check the league lounge, you must click on the coffee cup,
and wait for the room content list to present.
No yellow people icon will show, even when the room is full.

Rules:
GTP OLR Rules

• Please familiarize yourself with these rules prior to the event.
• If you cause a contact, you must make contact concessions. ie: no bump-passing
• Failure to make contact concessions will result in a post-race penalty concession. (ie: you will be placed below that racer in the results)
• Retaliation, "payback", & monkey-see-monkey-do rule flouting will not be tolerated.
• In the case where a driver does not participate in the previous race or leaves the lounge between races for any reason (including the unfortunate event of an involuntary disconnect), that driver will be placed in front on the grid according to RGO, and therefore, will voluntarily move aside letting the field pass, and start the race from the back of the grid. The purpose of this is to prevent scoffing.

[Lexi Walker]

would be in for both! i don't know if i got that suzuki let me check.

 

[jackargent]

Yeah...why not?

If you need either car I can supply

 

[watermelon punch]

Welcome!

And thanks jack!

I went with these 2 because the Copen is premium... and the Suzuki... I had 2 with 0 miles on my main acct, and 1 each on the other accts. All untouched. So I figured it's a prize car most people will have won, but never bothered to drive before!

In test driving the Suzuki, I discovered that it has all the typical 4wd attributes that give me trouble.
Neither car is very fast, of course. But both are stable. And the track is wide, but interesting. 👍

I found it most interesting that cc570 was able to create a toscana tarmac track with such low altitude changes. They're usually in the 130ft+ range. Lagunitas Kei has only an elevation change of 88ft! Perfect for low power cars!

 

[MSTER232]

I guess I will be up for this. And since I already have both cars, there is no need to go searching for them 👍 .

 

[watermelon punch]

Which day or both MSTER232?

 

[MSTER232]

Which day or both MSTER232?

Both days are actually a little bit late for me since I usually aim to go to bed at 9pm or so on a school night.

 

[dmihaylov]

I will try to join for this.

 

[GranTurismo916]

I'm up for Sunday.

Welcome! Which day dmihaylov?

Both days are actually a little bit late for me since I usually aim to go to bed at 9pm or so on a school night.

Well the event should finish up around 9pm BST. And of course anyone's welcome to join for as much as they like or can, and clear off when they need to. It's 4 races. So not to worry. 👍

 

[CC570]

Sign me up for Sunday please.

 

[Geeky30]

Enter me for both... I'm back guys!!!

 

[watermelon punch]

Glad to hear it!

 

[gazelle]

I am up for sunday event.
Colours to be decided.
Fr to mcrc and a track sharer coming later

 

[dylansan]

Count me in for Sunday, but I may make it Tuesday as well.
I'll probably have the following colors:
Suzuki: Monaco Blue
Daihatsu: Juane Yellow

 

[watermelon punch]

Welcome! 👍

 

[watermelon punch]

Just want to remind everyone to get the friend request to: PSN: MCRC_Lounge
That's where we want to hold the race.

And I'm nearing the limit of my friends list myself, because of hosting lots of events since last year, and I don't want to have to start deleting people.
So it's really helpful if everyone has the lounge accts added, so we can just add to our own friends lists who we race with most often, and still be able to meet in the club lounges. 👍

 

[gazelle]

Both cars pearl white l. 👍

 

[jackargent]

both my cars will be misty turquoise metallic with yellow wheels

 

[watermelon punch]

Nice choices guys!

SO has everyone added PSN: MCRC_Lounge ?

Let me know if not!

 

[dylansan]

I requested it but you haven't added it yet. PSN is GTP_dylansan.

 

[Handlebar]

I am going to try to make it... Son is having a birthday party, and I am not sure of how much refereeing I may need to do.

If I can, I will be in chrome orange metallic with blue rims.

 

[jackargent]

MCRC lounge is bow set up for some last minute practice

 

[dylansan]

Well I'd love to join but I haven't been accepted yet.

Can you tell whoever's there to accept me?

 

[Handlebar]

I sent my request late. Looks like I could'a been there, but no access is my fault. Good luck!

Just got a PM from Jack that those who can invite are not at the race.... Maybe catch ya later, then. Off for Honey-Do List in the garage. :-(

 

[Geeky30]

Is anyone in the lounge.
I cant get on the MCRC lounge as not befriended it. So I thought go through but Jackargent or someone but no ones on the event :S

WHERE IS EVERYONE!!!!

 

[dylansan]

I can't find the yellow circle by jackargent's coffee cup. Seems like I'm not the only one having trouble though.

Same problem as I'm having

 

[dylansan]

I'm pretty sure I can't get in because MCRC_Lounge didn't accept the request. Which leaves me pretty gutted, especially considering I sent the request on the 4th.

After the event, would anyone like to move to a different lounge and do some more racing? I'd really like to do something today at least.

Whoa? The 4th? That is... unfortunate.
