MÜLE_9242, We have to send you a friend request right?
I could not do it because your list is full, what should I do?

What times did you get?

What times are we looking for around GPF?

I'm looking at 1.59s and on a good lap, 1.58.8. I have had better sectors though.

Yeah, I have to update that still. It'll be done. Don't worry.

I figured that was why they weren't coming in...

When I get on the PS3 next, I'll go through and delete some.



Also, I just got my new ipod touch today, downloaded the GTP app, only to realize that it doesn't support my umlaut, so I can't sign in.
Looks like I'll have to ask Jordan to change it out.

EDIT: never mind. Figured it out.

Do you know what a good "tuned" RX7 lap time is?

Curious why a pit stop is mandatory with tuning, optional for the race without?

I could be wrong, I don't think you've registered. Please do that.

Curious why a pit stop is mandatory with tuning, optional for the race without?

Other than the tuning part of it, it's the exact same format that we'll be using for the season.

 

[freshseth83]

Maybe we can put the practice race off a couple days until the new update/DLC?

 

[NEPALII]

Its going to feel weird driving the tuned car and then switching to non tuned one. Im sensing a lot of mistakes. I havent even turned a single lap yet, been busy driving Gt500 from WSGTC specs.

 

[freshseth83]

Especially with stock downforce levels. Car is slippery.

 

[Müle]

Entry list updated except for:

Will the races start about 8-9 pm in uk time?

Edit: 5: toyotsupra (toyotsupra): Deep Purple

👍

Number is taken.

If I missed you, please tell me, otherwise, you guys can quit your bitching now.

Maybe we can put the practice race off a couple days until the new update/DLC?

A lot of people, myself included are unavailable on weeknights, so that's not a possibility. I'll look at possibly having a practice race on the 1st, if there's people who aren't out partying.

Is the number taken already? How about the colour is that ok?

 

[Müle]

Colour is fine. It would help to state your wheel colour as well.

 

[freshseth83]

Thats funny, you said wait until the update/DLC for a stock car, but now it seems you can't wait. It's cool, I'll get in when I can. Just confident I can put on a good pace. Maybe we can get together after the update, those who CAN race on weeknights.

 

[toyotsupra]

Car colour: deep purple
Wheel colour: black

Edit:is that okay I'm available all day if someone wants open a room up :tup

[Wardez]

Other than the tuning part of it, it's the exact same format that we'll be using for the season.

So then during the season it's just gonna be "no tuning" all the way right?

Btw I like that you're going full GP2 style and only reversing the top 8 of the grid 👍
But I don't like that the races are just cut in half. I know it's simpler points-wise but I'd really think it'd be better to have a good distance race, that essentially demands a pit stop, then a sprint race that does not need a stop.

I want a true sprint, I hate having to do a stop (yes I know we do in JGTS btw, which is why I'm saying)

Looks like all your guys wishes are going to be granted with the new update next week!

Super excited for the DLC. My babies, the 86, and the 2012 GT-R, are gonna be awesome and some of those new features sound nifty.

Yeah, I think it would be better to drive stock then tuned so we can see if the tune really helped.

So basically, you're saying that instead of two races of equal length, we have a short race then a long race, similar to JGTS?

Honestly I think I like the two races of equal length better. Though at work tonight I realized that with so many people competing, I need to revamp the points. I'll pm you later with what I have in mind.

I'll also send out a pm to those of you who I think can act as Capable hosts during the week and qualify people. This has become much bigger than I ever thought it would; all thanks to you guys.
