TLD Sponsored Track Days

[Paulie]

Paulie, 80Y 2C2 is right 99% the update is next friday but wont matter much you'll just change the track name or the PP and we'll still be good to go

I'm in as long as it's PAL

Well bugger, we'll have to wait and see then I guess what the new events are. (This concept will be sooo awesome with private rooms.)

 

[Boffin]

sorry guys, won't be taking part in this one.

I am going on a MUCH needed break up to the hunter valley wine region to go canoodling round a highly rated golf resort. They let me drive the buggies which is more that can be said for the clubs in sydney.
One day I'll tell you how I magange to powerslide one of the buggies....but that'll be in another post on another thread.

 

[Paulie]

No worries Nibbers.👍 Enjoy your trip, playing on a high quality golf course is always an exceptional experience, always made me feel like a pro when I was still playing.

 

[Boffin]

yeah i know ...and the golf buggies always give to an...er..excuse to hit the ball further. I can hit the ball far back home - I promise....but I don't want to walk far.....yeah...that's it.

 

[AyJay]

I will try to be there, providing I can a) update GT5P to wherever it's up to nowadays, b) figure out how to join it, and c) if I can come a few minutes late, 'cause I might be...

Fair enough, hope you can make it.👍

Edit: I just realised the events have changed, we're heading to Suzuka 750 PP in the same 500 PP hot hatches using S1, S2 or S3 tyres.

 

[Paulie]

Just a reminder we're still on for tonight.👍 It starts at 19:00 for those on Australia's East Coast (GMT +10). It was mostly Aussies and Kiwis last week, so some more international players are more than welcome this week.

 

[TiZzla]

I just hope we can get some empty races Paulie, otherwise we are only going to get in about 6 laps before the sub 2 minute 750 cars finish the race

These hatches are around 30sec/lap slower, so they'll lap us in around 4 laps, we should get around 7-8 laps in which is still quite a few.👍

We'll have to start 30sec after the grid leaves, and we won't start exactly at xx:00 come time, probably xx:05. Hopefully most of us will be in the chat.👍

Edit: I just want to mention that hot hatch doesn't necessarily limit you to FWD.

 

[Dragonistic]

Why oh why didn't we have this on Eiger 550 ?! Although it wouldn't be much of a race just imagine the handbrake turns ... I vote we have a casual meet there after the races, which I've missed most of

 

[Christhedude]

i hate this!!!

again i look at my watch and its 2pm here = 11am GMT which means the meet is over. why is it that i always come to late online? Stupid me, well next time i have to be there!

How did it go today? We demand pics

Whoa, now I'm really confused... 19:00 is 7:00pm for Paulie and others in GMT +10 time, so for me here in GMT +9:30 land, it would start at 6:30pm... Although I was wondering where everyone else is... Edit: and I think daylight savings messed me up, too

 

[Dragonistic]

It was cancelled as only 3 people showed up for the first (im relaying this from what i've been told).

so wait, after doing some calculation, that would mean the event would start for me in 10 mins??? I'm a little confused now.

Is the event over? or is it going to start in 10 mins?

 

[Paulie]

Sorry guys, I don't know how I can make the time slots more simple. Although Dragonistic was right, only 3 people initially showed up so we ended up racing 750 PP for a couple hours which I failed at.

Ahhh, well, my fault really

So, what's up for the next track day? Try the hot hatches again, or a different format?

Next track day will be the first ever TLD Drift Day, something that I think some people have been waiting a LONG time to see.

Awesome

 

[rofajole]

Hey Paulie, isn't this the WE event, the Fuji F 650pp I mean?? If so, this is going to be one heck of a drift day

Is Fuji a world event?! Cool, I suspected something was up when I seen a US player on Fuji the other day, but wasn't sure since it's been so long since pro had a world event.

 

[Mad94d]

Sorry I missed it last night guys. I was away playing Tennis.

I should be back next week to attempt some drifting.

By the way, Where are the pics?!?!

Read the last number of posts very carefully and you'll understand why there's no pics.

Yeah, that's what I figured. I should be there next week for some more fun. I'm assuming the people who there in week one, weren't there last night?

 

[Fujiwara-kun]

Sorry I missed the race

Our net had to get re installed lol

+ I only found about GT5 yesterday WoW! Cant wait to see the 80's-90's imports again



Did I hear a WE event? no such thing lol

 

[Mad94d]

Sorry Paulie, can't make it for the second week in a row due to going out to dinner with family. I really wanted to attend this week....

 

[AyJay]

Interesting, I don't think I've ever tried to drift Fuji... And I'll try and be there half an hour early, just in case

 

[Paulie]

I hope at least 3 people come, I've never drifted with more than 1 other person at a time.

 

[Boffin]

I should be able to come....though the only real section of track that I can drift properly is the windy bit at the end, but backwards

 

[Peterram430]

I'll try to come to this one

 

[Paulie]

I just want to point out that I won't be online all day tomorrow until shortly before the race day is due to begin as I'll be out at the drags. This week will definitely be run, even if only a few of us show up. There will definitely be a Home party afterwards, and we'll start the drift day at xx:00 on the dot as not many people race Fuji anyway.👍
