At room opening:

25% / 6 / 0%

Stewards have decided that RedPartyHat is permitted to run a Ford tonight despite having previously attempted to qualify in an Audi. As he has not qualified he is granted one car change, this will be the rule from now on.

 

[Furinkazen]

Internet keeps dropping out. Worrying, but who will be there tonight?

 

[LancerEvo7]

I should be there.

 

[Conbon14]

I may be

 

[Dano20]

Depends probably not

 

[brandofo]

I will be for sure.

 

[DK]

Ooh, can I come?

 

[Furinkazen]

Ooh, can I come?

No.

 

[R0ssingt0n]

I'll be there.

 

[paulmac2k9]

No.

I think you should give DK another chance in S9 but on probation for the whole season or atleast the first half season. Count this as a one season ban with a perm if DK continues the bad driving.

Just my 2 pence .

 

[Michelin]

Look guys, I'm currently retiring or putting my racing series on part time. I just suddenly lost my interest in racing games, so for now I'm putting GT5 Racing Leagues on a hold.

Yeah I'm noticing that..

 

[Furinkazen]

Yeah I'm noticing that..

I was getting DC's all time earlier...

Q has begin 8 going for 6 spots. Interesting some people going with wet front tyres, dry back.

 

[DK]

Yeah I'm noticing that..

It took me about 2 minutes just to load up 15 friends' profiles on GT5.

 

[Furinkazen]

If the track is drying the best option is dry on fronts and wet on rears. Wets on front on a drying track will just cause huge understee0r issues as you'll be burning the fronts up and have no grip on fronts, but lots on the rear. What you want, with front wheel drived car, is wets on the rear and dry on the front, so the front grips and the rear slides making the car point in much better. And if the track is wet, then dry on the back will just make it too much of a handful in wet conditions.

It wasn't too much of an issue for the Honda; seemed to cope alright...
