The PTRA Racing club

​

It's here!

If you want to join up, all that's required is that you don't take things too seriously, like I said these races are purely for fun. It would be good if you have a mic so you can join in with the banter but that's not essential. And that's it pretty much, feel free to sign up either by posting on the thread or just shoot me a PM. We are now full!

If people don't show up 3 weeks in a row without telling me they won't be there then I will remove them from the list to make room for others that might want to join. If you are removed from the list but wish to still be involved then re-register your interest and make sure you turn up 👍

Here's a few things we can do:
- Cat & Mouse
Takes place on Nurburgring Nordschliefe. People are divided into pairs, in these pairs one person has to be in a Fiat 500 from the recommended garage, and the other has to be in a Nissan GT-R of the same colour, again from the recommended garage.
If we have an odd number of participants then one person will be a wildcard in a GT-R.
Basically the guy in the Nissan has to push his fiat around the track, and the first Fiat 500 to cross the line wins. There are no contact rules, you can bash and ram all you like. Just make sure you ram any fiat that comes near you, and protect yours from other drivers.
- Fugitive
Again takes place at the ring. One person goes in a Subaru Impreza from the recommended garage, and 6 other guys jump in Nascars. At the start grid everyone heads off at the same time, and the fugitive (guy in the Subaru) basically has to get to the finish line as fast as possible. People in the nascars have to slow him down, and if you pin the Subaru for 5 seconds then thats it, games up.
I will keep note of all the times below.
- Shuffle races (dirty and clean)
- Rallying
- DTM's
- One makes
- Dirty Nascar
- LMP's
- Go karts
- Tank cars at Kart Space (Assuming it's still present)
- British Bulldog
Takes place at the Top Gear Test Track on the runway. Everyone gets in HPA Motorsport TTs from the recommended garage and go to track. One guy is nominated to be it, and goes to the middle of the runway, after a short countdown the others start at one end of the runway, and have to get to the other side without being hit by the one who's it.
The last person left running wins.
- FGTs
- Cops & Robbers

The usual suspects:
Brett
Sandman
Scalebreaker
Ferg
Ellis
Spurgy
Indy
Mike
Wordup
m8h3r
Ronin
rolo912011
GtPrecision
DrifterJoe
Cowboys
Locoman

*times won British bulldog

(I will keep these up, might be interesting to see the difference between the games) Fugitive times:
1. Ellis 11:18.194
2. Spurgy 11:44.525
3. Indy 13:30:495
4. Sandman DNF

Once everyone has had a run at fugitive the person with the fastest time will win a quite incredible prize, an e-turnip!!

 

[TyrrellRacing]

I would. Bored of proper race series anyway.

 

[Spurgy 777]

Ill be there I find these races more fun anyway

 

[Pagey279]

Awesome
Can anyone remember the name of the Nascar and Subaru game?

Edit: Pretty sure it's cops and robbers

 

[Spurgy 777]

Fugitive

 

[m8h3r]

Yeah put me down for a bit of fun on GT5, the game needs these sort of things to stay relevant for me 👍

 

[Pagey279]

That's the one Spurgy!! Don't know where I got cops and robber from.

Awesome m8h3r 👍 I will move you to the usual suspects

 

[IndyWolf]

I love this idea, finally I can just goof around without anyone getting mad

 

[m8h3r]

m8h3r*

 

[ronin85]

I'm in, tired of all the serious stuff anyway.

 

[Pagey279]

I love this idea, finally I can just goof around without anyone getting mad

Yeah man, you can beat the crap out of anyone who pisses you off now and not have to worry about drive through penalties or anything

m8h3r*

Fixed

 

[berty1979]

Im in 👍

Cops and robbers is a game we played with pace police and max 500pp road cars for the robbers

Love the OP

 

[Pagey279]

Got to love the turnipness

I knew we played cops and robbers at some point! Also was it you Brett that had the fugitive times written down?

I'm in, tired of all the serious stuff anyway.

Awesome 👍 Yeah I think a few people were, it will be cool to just muck around for a change.

 

[Ellis]

Yeah im down. A certain maxamillion won't be happy we have a thread going again

 

[Pagey279]

Don't say his name!! You will draw his presence

 

[Ellis]

Its not beetlejuice sam!

 

[m8h3r]

I see you updated the OP 👍

I will use my mic for this, I don't normally use it because I race serious and if I get stressed then there's a lot of 🤬 but seeing as it's just for fun I doubt that'll happen

 

[Ellis]

You won't get angrier then me I get very angry on games. Put me on FIFA and im ready to kill....even if I win

 

[IndyWolf]

Until the Mum comes around and puts you in your place

 

[Ellis]

I don't think even my mother dares cross me in a FIFA session

 

[m8h3r]

I'm actually quite surprised how long this controller has lasted me. I used to, lets say, "vent my anger", on the controllers

 

[Ellis]

Pillows and my legs get my fury

 

[Pagey279]

Right, what day would suit people best?
Brett has said Thursdays would be best for him, and it's the same for me.
Anyone else?

 

[Ellis]

Brett knows nothing. Its all about Wednesday

 

[rolo912011]

Any spaces left? This sounds like good fun

(I can't do Fridays as I'm in a BTCC series - but Wednesdays/Thursdays are good)

 

[ENTERSANDMAN13]

[Pagey279]

Brett knows nothing. Its all about Wednesday

I think he said he could so Wednesdays so that could work, is Thursdays when you patrol your bits of wood?

Any spaces left? This sounds like good fun

(I can't do Fridays as I'm in a BTCC series - but Wednesdays/Thursdays are good)

Yeah we have space I will put your name down 👍
Send me a friend request on PSN and keep an eye on the thread to see when it will take place.

Awesome, was a good race, might be going next year on my birthday if they keep the same weekend

 

[Pagey279]

I think we should all go next year, then meet up when we are up there

 

[ENTERSANDMAN13]

I'm highly jealous! Where were you on track?

Just past the last corner, at the main pit straight. at the end we got on track and climbed and sat on the pit wall, then jumped on the Mclaren pit shed bbc team close and all the cars parked next to us and was on the sky f1 camera lol.
