@MRTeam sorry to be confusing but you've got me on the entry sheet as St_Bridge44 again. It should be M_Mallet_Jr
It's looking good though, nice work!

Now I know why Tjger was hunting us down like hopeless prey... he was driving the Calsonic, same car he used at matterhorn!! He went wild at the end!

Ole you are lucky!!

Hopefully Manny can recapture that part of THAT race where I close in on him really quickly(start of lap 3).
I remember something about hearing the words....."Its your turn Manny to look in the mirror." :eek:

You have been corrected. Thank You for your patience. 👍
No problem sir, it's my own stupid fault for starting off on 2 different PlayStations before I realised that it would make more sense to keep 1 account across both machines.
 
Thank you to the fellas that came out to STTR tonight. You guys are important to me, and I really appreciate the support I've had the first few rough weeks in STTR.
Keep it up OB, I'm sure that all of our fellow Spinning Arrows are pleased to see that you have created a club that can bring something to the GT6 community.

S.A.C. was my first decent online racing experience & continues to be my GT6 priority but it has given me the confidence to go into any lobby & feel that I can race in a professional manner & be as valid there as anybody else even when I'm very much behind the pace. I've already seen, in my short time here, other people develop the same kinds of confidence.

I would recommend that in running the STTC, you strive to be as effective a host as @tarkus1 & you won't go wrong. We can see, of course, that there are a few people that help out invaluably over here & as your room grows over time you may acquire a similar group style of leadership.

It is certainly not my place to speak for the boss or any of his loyal servants, this is just a lump of thought from a fan of everybody here.
:cheers:

I appreciate this. Much more if this was written during one of your sober periods.

Ok, gentlemen.
Here's something that I used over the years of playing Gran Turismo.
A friend of mine(Team Phoenix) created this back in the Gran Turismo 3 racing years.

Its been modified several times and probably needs more.
So in my infamous words...Print it out. Look it over, if it needs tweaking let me know.

TIP: Print out on legal size paper. You can use the blank space to the right to scribble any additional notes. Don't forget to print it out on the back side.

THank you for that kind Sir. I just got back into town yesterday and just saw this. Looking forward to the casual races this coming week
 
I was kidding around, mate.
I know, I didn't have a problem with what you said. It may have come across like I did.
It was more a case of trying to stop a stereotype of me developing. After you introduced me as "the drunken brit" the other night too.
Genuinely not a problem though, sorry if I sounded heavy handed by bringing it up.
 
It's fine, man. I just like to tease people over a trait they have-My way of showing affection for my pals.
Yeah I understand, i was just being wary of it getting too repetitive.
I am sorry for making it sound like a big deal, I'm looking forward to racing you & everybody else this Thursday. 👍
 
Ok fellas,
I know everyone is very excited about the upcoming Miata race but since it is still over a week away, I figured I would jump in with the agenda for this weeks casual races. You'll notice that the Miata will make a cameo appearance at the casual races this week.
Race 1 - 490PP street cars only VFT.
Race 2 - 500-550 race cars and the winner of the previous race decides exact PP level within these parameters. VFT.
Race 3 - same as above but with street cars.
Race 4 - One make race. One lap around The Ring using mid level race cars.
Race 5 - 551-600PP race cars and winner of previous race picks exact number VFT.
race 6 - same as above but with street cars.
Race 7 - 10 lap run through Autumn Ring with the Miata Roadster. Same car to be used for the main event. A practice run for the main event.
Race 8 - 20 laps around Daytona but with LIGHT damage. No pit required although tire wear MAY still be a concern. choose wisely.
Race 9 - 601-650 race car. Winner picks exact PP and VFT
Race 10 same as above but with street cars.
race 11 - 700PP race car challenge. 3 laps around La Sarthe.
:cheers:
 
Exciting line up. I'm looking forward to it.
I've had a Mazda practice room open for a few hours now, been dipping in & out & messing about with the suspension. Found about a seconds worth of improvement per lap but I'm still not as fast as some of the others. There are plenty of settings left to play with too.
I think I've pretty much worked out my pit strategy, I pulled a few of the top scientists away from CERN to perform some calculations. Those boys really know their way around a calculator.
