Hello, JockeP22---
I'm interested in joining your Z8 League!. I've also noticed the unique/interesting features the Z8 obtains. I read the description a while ago and learned about its V8 engine & its feature in the James Bond movie!, pretty cool. I usually participate in racecar competitions but, I noticed you have damage set to 'heavy' so that 'sold' me! Anyways, I'll send u a 'FR' on PSN later today, hope to get on course with you soon!

Hey gurizzi, thanks for being the first to join. And a fellow Seinfeld fan to boot? Things couldn't get any better : )
Yeah only 5,703 Z8's were ever built.

Yes, I know it's taking a gamble creating these kinds of very particular one-make championships. But hopefully there will be some good racing taking place. I was inspired a bit by FergusMik when I saw his Classic MINI Racing Club really taking off. As much passion as he has for the Mini, so do I for the Z8. Almost as much, anyways.gurizzi
I did set the inaugural races for the Z8 championship to this Thursday so that I wouldn't miss out on his Mini races today (Wednesday)

Hi Rob : )
Sweet, looking forward to seeing you handle the beast that is the Z8.
Thanks for joining. Yes, I'll be using my BT-headset.
Yeah, I set all options to realistic because I feel that will make for the most honest and interesting racing. But perhaps more people will join if damage is changed to light?gurizzi

That's brilliant, Smiley. Thanks for joining.
I don't think #13 will give you any bad luck as I'm quite sure you will bag a lot of points these races
People, when the Z8 room closes you should join up in Smiley's lobby Pre 73 classic 500pp racing - Thursday 18th September @21:00GMT All welcome
I know I will.

It should be 12:00 for you, Manny. 2 hours and ~10 minutes to go.
You are more than welcome, bergele. Great that you like the Z8.bergele

Mine has been painted Terracotta for tonight. Jeff Gordon will handle the driving duties.
Remember everyone, the damage is originally set to heavy so take care of your Z8's.
Don't give up if anything happens, just perform a pit stop and chase after those points.
If the majority wants me to change the damage setting to light instead, I will do so.
Just let me know : )

I had FUN!! Really challenging car that I need to understand better... Glad I was given the opportunity to be part of this event. Hey JockeP! Just cause you said that my MINI is SEXY looking amma make you a video if you would like. Maybe It can help out and send you extra traffic for future events
I been helping my Club & I helped FergusMik, I will help Sick Cylinder, I helped AMac500 & I will help you! You know why?! Cause we all share the passion for cars and RACING & because WE ALL are part of the GTPlanet Family
I will leave you with one of my S.A.C videos and Amac500 (I just helped him) and I will bring you the same quality if you say YES! (I was going to leave you with a MINI video but you seen them already lol)

Thanks a bunch, GOOFY. I was hoping to find equally enthusiastic racers for the Z8, and boy did I ever : )
It was a great learning experience for me personally. A few people warned me that too many Z8's in a lobby would cause problems since the car is open-top and highly detailed. But as far as I could tell there were no real issues, apart from someone not being able to hear their engine.
Thanks everybody for showing up and for being patient (the first race got the start delayed a bit too much).
I leave work pretty soon and will post the race results and update the standings in a few hours time.
And GOOFY, I was toying with the idea of holding races more frequently than once per week. I'm much too eager than to have to wait for a whole week between events. Perhaps one or two races Saturday?

I´m already involved in a race on Saturdays so for me it´s best if only once a week.
It´s your event so it´s your call Jocke, but I think many drivers are involved in other races during the week.

Me too, I definitely need to try out varying settings in order to get the best out of it.
I already love how it handles and the sound of the V8 is like sweet music.
I think your videos are terrific, Manny. And I already subscribe to your Youtube Channel;

If you would like to create a Z8 video I would be honored. 👍👍

Hello, ALL---
Great racing & thanks for having me! I can't wait until the next event! Sorry for almost forgetting the start time(oops!) LOL.
Next round I will enter a 'base-model', the 15th Anniv. model does NOT allow you to add 'flat-floor' & I need that ! Again, great series & thanks for taking the time to set this up & host this Jocke!!
--cya on course!

Such a great event... now that I know we race at "MONACO" and Laguna I will practice with my Z8 on those two track. Also I might need to work on a better tune cause I didn't had time to work on one yesterday.
Hey JockeP count me in for next week and I will make you a video buddy... Next week I will be taking my vacation so NO work for me. Amma spend it with the GTPlanet family racing In all the events I can get to.
Congratulations to the winners from each track and the overall winner with the most points!

Thanks for the qiuck results Jocke, but it´s a shame too loose points beacuse of SONY`S bad servers.
They really have to step up and make it more stable
