Hey @HP_FordGT,
We are a group of 16 or so regulars that have been racing together for about a year. We have slowly added to our ranks with quality drivers as well as quality dudes...
We don't take ourselves too seriously but having said that we do focus on respectful enjoyment of the game and racing to advance each other's enjoyment.
We have a few aspects of our club ranging from a casual race night every Thursday at 7pm EST - this is typically 9-10 5 lap races of different classes of cars and different power ranges... It's fun sprint races focused on fun clean driving and showing off new cars we're working on.
We also have an aspect of the club that allows for the opportunity to participate in endurance type races typically once a month. These are typically handled on a Wednesday evening. One-two hours - typically taken very seriously in prep and participation. These are typically run by tjger.
And then we also sometimes do fun events behind the scenes like individual bracket style racing tournaments - some individual events some of those team events - those are called the Bracket of Death or B.A.D. Tournaments - we're about ready to start a new one this weekend. These are typically run by me.
And then many of our talented racers have rooms and clubs and series they run on their own!!
If you are serious about committing to a group that is as dedicated to fun as they are advancing each other's driving ability - this may be the group for you!
I would encourage you to first join in on our next casual event next Thursday and get your feet wet. You can see a bit more of what we're about and then you will soon be on the slippery slope we call "over involvement" in the game!!
We look forward to seeing your grill or tail lights!!!

OK, for Spa which will emulate the 24 hours at Spa-Francorchamps.
Our race time will be 90 minutes. So when creating your practice room.
You'll set the race start time at 16:30. Time Progression at 16. Race length 90 minutes.
Remember Spa has two track. One is without time progression and the other has time progression.
Suzuka and Mt Panorama will remain at 2 hours.

Just do the gentlemen thing. Sign up so you don't miss out.
If you can't make. Just withdraw.
I have roughly 20 members and only 16 spots on the grid.
Here's your chance PD. đź’ˇ
Beat Project Cars and give us 20 in Gran Turismo 7.
I'll pre-purchase today.
sir, I've signed up all the open events in your club. đź‘Ťđź‘Ť
I won't miss, and I can't miss.

alright, just bought something to enhance the driving experience:
yup, an optical audio cable.
now I can hook up the audio output from the PS3 to the theater system thus there's 5.1 surround sound.
The advantage is now I can hear Mphile and EHTeam pulling away from me through the front speakers, and notice BR1MANN and Manny are hitting my butt through the rear speakers... meanwhile hear Tjger roaring at the back through the sub-woofer, and listen to Tarkus1 saying "welcome to SAC, we have causal racing every Thursday.... welcome to SAC....." through the center one... lol

Damn FergusMik has the Enduro spirit! I remember when he did the GT500 and couldn't finish.... Now he can't wait for the next Tjger Event!!I was using the Z4, still mostly stock with some adjustments to LSD and tranny to get it driving comfortable. Managed 2:22s but still need to learn the track more.
