The World's Most Okay Tour - Laguna Seca 200 Miles (31 Dec. 2019, 12PM PST)

[Mistah_MCA]

Before '74? that's a pretty broad field of classes . Is Area 51 a new track they haven't added yet?

I remember checking the car list by year, and the number of cars that fits the criteria is smaller than I thought. I'll take another look later.


I wish! I'm debating on doing it on Willow Springs (desert setting, closest track to Area 51, but there's tricky turns) or Special Stage X (speed can be maximized, easy turns)

EDIT: For Goodwood, I'll have a max power, minimum weight limit, to hopefully make sure that some cars aren't too overpowered.

There are quite a few cars across a range of classes. I have 28 in my garage.

Sounds like I'll have to detune one of my 20,000,000-10,000,000 cars .

Yeah, I don't want the OP cars to be insanely OP lol. But then again, they'll be on Sports tires...

Hehe yeh. My first instinct when doing the offline parts of the game is to max out the power and min the weight. 1000+hp on sports tyres is...... "challenging" .

Short notice drop out, unfortunately. I've tried to swap a shift at work to make this one, and just had confirmation that the that it can't be done. So, 9am start on Monday, with a 90 minute commute.

 

[MaxAttack]

About to test reliability of my PS4 running GTS. If I can drive for a few hours without phantom inputs affecting me, I may be up for taking my spot back up. I'll report later tonight

 

[MaxAttack]

(apologies for double post, but sending an alert out seems prudent)

i'm happy to race with my PS4 as is - running GT smoothly and no interruptions to inputs... No idea what car to run, itd be nice to know who's running what so I can pick something interesting.

i'm there if you'll still have me!

 

[Sven Jurgens]

Great to see you back in action @MaxAttack. I'll be running the Lexus. I hope I can still handle all that speed after the swift barely reaching 145 kph on the middle straight at Nord My crap suv pulls up the hill better out of Hamilton, with a full load.

Updated the list. Sorry to hear you can't make it.

You're still in.

It's now Sunday, 8pm. No one showed so I started the race without you all and I won!!!! Ok, so on to Goodwood yes?

That took me a solid minute to understand.

Brilliant! At least its an easily calculatable time for you guys, relatively speaking!

Its gonna be a midnight start (Qualifying/practice at least) here for us Brits and it did take me a bit of time to work out actually what day that meant! Looking forward to tonight/this morning!

Hehe yeh. 5pm Sunday PST works out to be Monday 10am. I live in the future .

Got any flying cars yet in the future? It would solve a lot of problems on the track

You are kidding, right? Instead of getting side swiped at Hell Corner, you get side swiped, dropped on top of, punted up, flipped over, rear ended *and* brake checked!!!!!

 

[JEverettL]

Unfortunately I’ve gotta drop out of tonight’s race. Got company coming over to the house and they love to hog my sim rig.

Just pick the right 'car'

GTS needs saw blades on the back bumper though!

 

[Leftcurl]

Any room for a little one?

Sorry - noticed I’m already down in da club

No worries!

I'd like to go on the wait list.

Psn Empire_of_Ravens

Still interested in today's race? You've been moved up to the main list.

 

[Mistah_MCA]

Hi, can I as a beginner join aswell (or placed on the waiting list)?

ID janwlen82

For some reason, I was never notified about getting this reply from you. Really sorry about that. If you want, I can reserve a spot for you for the next race (likely August 25, 1 hour of Goodwood with cars made on or before 1973).

 

[Sven Jurgens]

Just a heads up and hopefully not necessary but my isp has failed me twice now between 7 and 9 pm, which is exactly during race time. If I get disconnected during the warm up and don't make it back in within a few minutes, that likely means I won't have a connection for a while and thus can not race. Last night it held out so fingers crossed, Friday it was dead for at least an hour. So if you have anyone on the waiting list feel free to give them my spot when I suddenly disappear. Hopefully if it decides to crap out again it will do so during warm up and not during the race! 7pm is prime streaming time I guess.

So far so good, connection has been fine today, 11ms ping to Toronto, 57 mbps down (while kids are streaming), 15 mbps up. See you in a couple hours!

 

[MaxAttack]

Planning to be around about 12GMT for practice... Hope that's correct

That’s the time I’m working to, so at least there’ll be two of us if we balls up the time difference

 

[JoeyLeonine]

Make it 3!

 

[JoeyLeonine]

Getting ready...

 

[Mistah_MCA]

I just lost connection. I'll have the lobby ready when I get it back

 

[JoeyLeonine]

I was gonna chime in with some unrealistic banter like - "you guys carry on dropping out and I might end up winning this thing"

But sods law dictates that this is when all our ISPs in the UK decide to do some midnight maintenance...

So I'll keep my mouth shut.

 

[Sven Jurgens]

I'm doing one more race C, cause hopeless addict, will join right after. @ 4:24

I believe the technical term is "the commentator's curse" .

 

[JoeyLeonine]

And it's accurate too. Guess who can't get into the lobby...
