I might join if I have time to test tonight
So there's free spot on every car? I can find room settings from club event, right?

If the 507 is available, I'd like to change my Z8 to it

Grid filling up nicely @JockeP22 . 507 seems very popular! Only ran it on CS, so will have a crack at SM tonight. If you're on I'll give you a shout?

 

[Aaroh]

Can I tune the car to 387pp anyhow or are there weight and hp limit?

 

[jammy21]

So 507 gone. Ok one car less to test...

 

[Cu3e]

I am gonna miss this. SM on a semi-low power car not my thang and there is another event colliding with this again

So one 507 up for grabs

About turn-around, have you thought of reverse start? I was testing a lotus Esprit '02 with CS and tried some movie stunts for fun

I mean start in reverse, handbrake, switch to first and go go go!

It could be a wreckfest or total awesomeness!!!

Edit: probably better on a track with long straight at start line...

 

[JockeP22]

I was on with gamer and qken before but had some problems getting online at times.
Kept getting this error message when trying to enter the open lobby.

Some limitations yes;

507
PP 387
BHP your choice
WT 1,240


Z4 (stock)
PP 420
BHP 227
WT 1,365


Z8 (stock)
PP 485
BHP 394
WT 1,610


transmission, diff, clutch and the like will be driver choices..

have you thought of reverse start?

No, I haven't.
Sounds fun.

 

[jammy21]

Put me in with Z8. I'll try to stay alive on that "2nd" lap

 

[Aaroh]

My 507 is ready:tup:

The Secret Race

 

[Zolon32]

Is the, shhhhhhhh-you-know-what race at the Z8 club Jocke, or do I have to join another group?

Cheers, Zo.

 

[JockeP22]

Congratulations to @Zolon32 @SmileyWRX and @Aaroh007 for finishing first in their respective classes.
Unfortunately @jammy21 and @cgg disconnected some time at half distance. : (


Really impressive showing by @gkgamer to qualify 4th in the supposedly third best car on the grid.
No extra preparation time for you next time, gamer.

Fun new way of qualifying thanks to jammy.

This can't end well. bb forgetting to stay to the right.

Autobahn or Nordschleife?

 

[Zolon32]

YEAH!!!!!!!! Best in class ........... OHHHHHHHHHH, only one to finish in class OOOOOOOOOH, guilty of bashing Smiley on his side of the road

Roll on Monday........... although I've not heard of anything in particular happening on Monday, of course.

Cheers, Zo.

 

[jammy21]

1st time reverse laps in racing. That was really different and also fun. Thanks Jocke for an invitation 👍

 

[polysmut]

I had GT6 loaded up earlier but not the motivation to spend any time preparing for anything major or even to jump into a lobby.

What I did instead, was look up a drift tune on the web for the BMW Z8 & give it a blast in arcade mode. I only did 1 lap of Suzuka but the knowledge that I played GT6 at least for a moment is the difference between a GT day & a wasted day.

It occurred to me during my brief session that my attendance at this club and several others, has been even less frequent than I had consciously realised. It's a testament to the members & organisers of the Cappuccino, Mini & this Z8 Club that I've inadvertently hoodwinked myself into feeling like I'm a part of things that I've actually been observing from the sidelines.

So well done everyone for creating such an amazing community & I'll endeavour over the next two weeks to be more than just an absentee friend. The month of March is a metaphorical write-off for PlayStation & me but February & April, watch out! 👍



& if you want to see any photos of the drift version of the Z8 I'll smoke up a lens for you & send the images on. The tune I used was from teamschmo.

Same here.

👍👍

Smoke away, Mallet.



Next Club event is set for Tuesday, February 17th (Z8's only).
With a special nod to @Zolon32 and @Cu3e

 

[JockeP22]

The you-know-what at you-know-where might happen today at 9pm GMT.
No guarantees though. And I don't even know what I'm referring to.
Move along, nothing important to read here..

 

[buybon355]

I'll have to miss the comfort soft run due to pesky work sending me all over the country next week. I will however meet you at the bar tonight for a few shots of your favourite tipple

 

[Zolon32]

It would be extremely rude of me not to join in this lark fellas wouldn't it. Having said that, it would be quite rude of any of you to beat me, given that it's been set up with my particular perversion in mind. That's agreed then, none of this pesky overtaking malarkey, just follow me around and everything will be fine.

Cheers, Zo.

 

[JockeP22]

I'll have to miss the comfort soft run

I might have to paint my Z8 in azure blue and argent white then, to resemble St. Andrew's Cross.
I'll do my best to make Scotland proud.

Yeah, tell that to Dusty.



The event is up in the community;

 

[JockeP22]

I think the Z8s should all be on comfort soft

It's just my obsession Jocke. It's my aim in life to get everyone to appreciate comfort tyres. I'm not doing very well yet....

I'd say you're doing fine. 👍

My very special 'buybon355 livery' for today's Z8 race;

 

[Zolon32]

That is one fine looking ve-hi-quool you've got the Mr Jocke, and I'm loving the matching outfit. Although, I have to say, it doesn't look very livery to me. Isn't liver usually sort of bluish-greyish-brownish, pretty disgusting, truth be told.

Might try to sort myself out a new look for tonight. Unfortunately, I'm something of a style free zone, my brother nabbed all the artistic genes floating around in our family pool.

Cheers, Zo.

+2" rims Jocke?

 

[cgg]

Just of some fun, I'm even going to come up with a new paint scheme. Points of guessing what colour it'll be!

 

[gkgamer]

I hope I will hold on until the race for the next 6 hours but I have been working for 14, awake for 16 already.
Actually I have been kept waiting for 12 hours and worked for 2...
So not only am I in the worst mood ever but I am also quite tired. Add that to the comfort tires and what we have here my friends is an a-class recipe for disaster.
any chance of green @cgg ?

 

[JockeP22]

I have to say, it doesn't look very livery to me. Isn't liver usually sort of bluish-greyish-brownish, pretty disgusting, truth be told.

Whatever it is, I do have three pounds of haggis in the back seat.
Oh, and a DVD copy of Braveheart in the glove compartment.

+2" rims Jocke?

Only way I roll, gk. I needs dat two inch white bling.

Points of guessing what colour it'll be!

You normally sink your lap times faster than the Titanic.. so Iceberg Metallic? Yes that color really is in the game.

You's been workin' wit dem diva's again, huh? You know how they's be, gk. Gotta let it slide, bro.
