Would like to try this on the Wednesday Evening if that's okay?

Great! New drivers are always welcome to join us.

 

[MasterGT]

I finally added the Ferrari GTO tune, above, if anyone needs it. It is a nice handling car, but the torque will catch a few drivers off guard. My tune should help with your exits, but you still need to be cautious.

 

[BitsofData]

So, this is open lobby racing open to all drivers?........even not so fast drivers like me that keeps trying anyway?

 

[challenger001]

Great! New drivers are always welcome to join us.

What specific time GMT is it? On your Discord it seems to say 6:30, but here it says 9. And even though it's a European time slot, still have to set location to all for American lobbies? I wasn't able to join last week's, wondered if I'd missed out a step somewhere.

I joined one a few months back. It generally starts at 19:30 British time.
Due to the time and FIA I haven't been able to join one since.

Yeah but with no FIA this week I figured I'd give it a shot!

Edit: Thanks for the time info.

Might have overestimated the gap between seasons, but thanks for bringing me up. I think I can squeeze it in, if I do one and done.

 

[BitsofData]

God, I'm glad I'm not waiting for paramedics.

 

[MasterGT]

The summer lobbies opens in about 20 minutes. I hope that I have the GMT/UTC correct, but I think it is. Select all regions, to find our lobby.

We use open lobbies, but the room settings ensure that there is no nonsense. Therefore, all drivers who want to improve their skills are welcomed.

We aren't using Discord because we can still use PSN Party Chat messages.

God, I'm glad I'm not waiting for paramedics.

Do you need a paramedic? I hope not.

Sometimes images show in the last MNR post, sometimes they are Xed out. A screen refresh may fix it for you.

 

[MasterGT]

We had a fun night, kept racing for over 3 hours and some old friends that I haven't seen for a few years joined in. Surprisingly, not many drop-ins wanted to race the Gr.4 car, though.
