Yes, but F1 will be in Monaco. You'll probably be driving when the race is on but I'll get to play bingo
heeheee.... nope...
GTP race starts @ 8am, which is the same time the F1 starting...
since you are running the 1st stint and i am running the 2nd which is 80 mins later, i can catch most of the f1 race before my stint start....
you will catch the finishing...

Well don't post your score then, I'll record it from a stream and watch it alongside you driving for us. 👍
And now back to the question from last race, stay up for qualifying or try to sleep beforehand haha.

I also changed the 1st page for a quick reference to the details of this race.(Good news fellow racers. Spinning Arrows Club (or SAC) will be bringing back the world tours starting at the end of the month. While still keeping with our casual roots, we will be hosting a sort of mini endurance series. So taking place of the casual races on May 28th will be a tour of Europe. This will include a 525PP European production street car with 10 lap races around 5 separate European tracks. The car restrictions are minimal and limited to PP to stay in line with the casual races as we will not be dealing with tire wear, etc. (not yet anyway).
So get your cars prepped for the 28th and be ready for:
1. Monaco
2. Nurburgring GP/F
3. Apricot Hill
4. Rome
5. Red Bull Ring)
Just repost for next week May 28th race
For those who did not know

I think we'll just have see what happens in qualifying, see what everyone else is running. You and Fan can watch the broadcast and see what's going on. I have more to say but I think I'll move it to the PM because other teams could see it out here.

Hey Alex i was trying to keep up with it but once the Red flag was thrown nothing else was mentioned of it.
Did see the results and saw we did improve from sliverstone so great job alex Eh_team and fan and for getting the podium in class. Tarkus we need a celebration during casual night on thursday for them.

I haven't been getting notifications on this thread...
I read some back and forth about a red flag in the endurance in the convo. According to this SAC Racing came out 3rd in class! Well done fellas!!

ya, it happened when I just started my stint, 2nd lap and all the sudden I got disconnected...
thought it was problem on my side thus I try to log back in but it didn't work and saw a post from AJ saying the lobby is down.
thus have to restart the whole thing such as new room, calling cars to the grid, time sync blah blah blah and I almost fall to sleep.... lol
don't think they have it broadcasted since it's GT and GT4 class, AJ had the race livefeed in his twitter account, that's all.
The race itself was pretty smooth for us, EHTeam pushing hard like crazy and got some very good lap time, mine was consistent and FAN wrap up the race for us in good terms!!!
ya, 3rd out of 5 teams, not bad, especially on Nordschleife, such a difficult course.

Hey guys - I'm going to be on kinda a leave of absence for a while... In transforming my rig into a PC run setup I had to kinda re-hook things up... So in doing that and spending time on project cars - I haven't had a chance to see if I'm going to be able re-hook up the PS3s and run both...
In theory I think I can - I just need to see how I'm going to set it up...
So I haven't forgotten about my brothers from other mothers - but that's where I've been and why I have missed a few events... I'll keep an eye on things and anxiously await race results...
Hope to see you guys on the track again soon

should be very easy if you want to have the A/V system hook up to both PC and PS and switch between the two.
at the moment I am hooking both PS3 and PS4 to the A/V system and I can switch between both by pressing a single button on the universal remote control.
the only thing I have to unplug/plug manually is the USB plug for the steering wheel, but it's a piece of cake.
you can post what components you are using for both and I can suggest a way for you.
unless you have the PS3 and PC in two different rooms then it's a bit of headache, otherwise it's a piece of cake. 👍

Yeah I'm just going to hook that hdmi cords up to to av1 and av2
The problem is the screens for PS3 are all independent and for PC all three act as one - so I'm sure the alignment will be jacked up...
But yeah should be a matter of just unhooking and hooking up the Ethernet cable once it get it all back together....

So where were you about a month ago when I was rewiring my basement system?? Some friend you areWe hope so too! I like to think I'm pretty handy with wiring and different setup options when it comes to AV equipment. Let me know if you need any pointers. Love that stuff, probably the only dude who gets excited at the sight of wires and adapters.
Getting ready to basically get a new entertainment system. Well just speakers really but the wire mess I'm actually still dealing with is a nightmare. Figure 1 HDMI and power cable for TV, a 7.1 surround system, 2 separate stereo zones for music only and 2 sub cables then an Ethernet cable to tie everything in. This doesn't take into account any PS3 wires to the receiver, blue ray player etc. SO I'm talking about lots of cables. Ugh!!! Off the top of my head...I think I just counted 16 cables in my head not taking into account the separate red/black for each speaker. Damn, why do you have to be on the west coast?!?!?!?!?

LMAO!! I know, I'm such a knuckle head.
Chances are if you're looking at a 7.1 receiver it will have at least a 4 in - 1 out HDMI switch built in. Should simplify things as long as you don't mind the receiver being on all the time.Depending on the model of receiver, you might actually have 9 channels instead of 7. Some say 7.1 and mean 7 channels in one room, with the option for 2 in a separate zone. Other are 7 channels total, so either 7 in one room, or 5 in one and 2 in another.
Ethernet is the simplest to work with. Just go get a switch. A gigabit(10/100/1000) is best, but honestly your connection probably wont be much better than a 10/100 anyways. This plugs into your router. And you plug all your devices into it. You can get 4 or more ports depending on the number of components.
And there is the surge protector....
Too little too late? Or way too much too soon?

Hmmm, been thinking about using one of those Logitech remotes for a while now. Once I get this basement finished I"ll start looking into it again.
As far as the other equipment, it's all stuff I already own except the speakers and fortunately my receiver does have HDMI pass thru while it is in standby mode so it doesn't need to be powered on all the time just to watch something not worthy of surround. It is also an 11.2 channel receiver which is why I have 7.2 in the basement and 2 other separate zones for stereo; patio and deck.
Now not to sway too far, one more day to go and I still haven't been able to test my cars to see which is being run on which track. The best I can hope for is to get online early tomorrow for some testing. I'm really itching to try a street Lotus.
I also don't have the full list in front of me but at this time we should have about 10 for the race tomorrow. So its not too late if you want to jump in.
I think we have the following so far:
me
Eh Team
Mcinnins
Mazda
Stock
Kingdom
Alcheng
Nuggetking
Meepz
Pkart
Manny
I apologize if I left your name off. it's just bad memory on my part.
