Torc 15: Sign Up & Warm Up Event

[Stotty]

There are some names on here I haven't seen since the old days of granturismo.com (run by the californian guy with the NSX... Kenny or something that began with K)... Flinx, Womble, Peekay, Old Timer, Tosk... all we need now is for Gasman to turn up.

 

[doggyollie]

My time so far.
1.15.321

 

[Tosk]

Hi rapid46, welcome to TORC. Are you as fast as your avatar?

luke goldsmith - That is an impressive time, exactly the same times as GTP_MeAgainstYou but I dont see you on the online rankings? Or are you and GTP_MeAgainstYou one in the same person?

Dodo - Looks like you broke our tie mate, I might need to get back to the track again.

Stotty - That guy's name was Kenji (I spose it still is), he still runs his site, but its all about real racing now. As for Gasman, I have tried to contact him a few times through various sites over the last few years, including his own (which is now gone), but with no luck.

Godson - You're right, during the actual series we only speak of sector 2 times. As for the auto update thingy that shows your ghost time, that is only for time trial or drifts, not arcade races, which we are going to be using in the series.

Cheers Stotty. I wrote to Kenji requesting any possible backups of the old Online Racing forum just to reminisce but didn't get a reply. Gasman is still alive and kicking and posts (rarely) at GTWoman's forum House of GT. He is pretty tied up with other things these days I guess.
It has been a pleasure to see some of the old crew resurface for Tosk's event and I am hopeful we may see some more as we get closer to GT5.

 

[Tosk]

Hi cerbrus1983, its not to late to join, welcome to TORC.

GTP_MeAgainstYou - Sorry mate, there is another driver that has posted the exact same time as you at TORC Talk, but has not show up in the rankings, I thought it could be you, guess it's not. Will await his reply.

I occasionally pop on to house of gt, but don't see much activity. Really good to see some of the original OLR crew are still alive and kicking though!

 

[Tosk]

Welcome to TORC RaWRespect, exactly right for the warmup, just a time & post it. As for the real comp, tis pretty easy....

1. I will post the races at the start of each event
2. You run each races as described
3. PM or email me your time & replay before deadline
4. I post results

It's simple, hope you enjoy the racing.

Congratulations to Timppaq, GTP_MeAgainstYou & luke goldsmith for taking the top 3 spots & well done to the gtxf.net guys for taking the top spot in the board results.

Now that the warmup is over, lets get down to the real racing.

 

[Timppaq]

So was my lap DQ'd?

 

[DustDriver]

Tosk probably just missed it

 

[P3nT4gR4m]

looks like he's got the 9 and 6 round the wrong way:

8 1:14.965 Timppaq GTP

 

[Timppaq]

looks like he's got the 9 and 6 round the wrong way:

Not like it would make any difference..



👍

Was a nice Warm Up -event!!
