He who shares my ps3 was looking on when I was painting my Alpine, and he discouraged me from changing the rims... so I'm sporting the factory wheels. :)
 
If someone has an extra and wants to ship me one, im in.
I looked and can't find it. Which race is this a prize for?
 
I'll look again. I finished all the b spec races so I should have it. But then again, I started clearing my garage and have a third of the cars I used to have.

Oh no! This should definitely not be on a list of discard cars. LOL
It's quite fun.
It does tend to get overlooked, I noticed though.
 
I'm going to need some practice on Eiger Reverse.
So peoples let me know if you're planning on practice. heehee.

Some of us did a race yesterday on nurb 24hrs in this car. That was super-fun!!! Thanks guys. :D
 
Hello all,

Turned on GT5 for the first time since the Bimmer race and I realized that I don't have a Alpine in my garage... :dunce:

Would someone be so kind as to send me one? I'd be more than happy to return it upon completion of use if need be.

Thanks!

I'm going to do the bspec event on the vcrc acct if it lets me... will let you know. :)

I forgot about that, I'll do it on my bspec remote account and send it to myself... Thanks anyway!
 
I'm in, although I haven't decided on which shade of yellow I'm painting the Alpine and will be sitting on those standard, pretty wheels since I don't have time to grab a set from CL. I'll update tomorrow morning with final color.

culturalsnow / culturalsnow / yellow (exact shade TBD)
 
99.9% sure I'm gonna be a scratch for tomorrow, had some mechanical problems arise on my car and I need to get it fixed tomorrow... It's very likely that I'll miss the sprint race as well, but if I'm done in time, I'll be in that one...
 
Someone forgot to warn me that Daylight Savings Time starts in the USA tomorrow... but not in Europe for another couple of weeks.

What were they thinking doing that? Shouldn't everyone change on the same day?? :boggled:

So we may have to post-pone this race until next week, if we can't figure this out. :mad:
 
RESCHEDULING

I need to reschedule this because North America starts Daylight Savings Time, and there's been some confusion, because Europe does NOT start DST until the 25th. :boggled: As well that 2 people can't make it anyway... so best to just put it off until next week, and regroup. 👍

Here are the options for rescheduling for:

Sunday March 18th

Reschedule Option #1:
@ 9am PDT / 12pm noon EDT / 4pm GMT / 5pm CET

Reschedule Option #2:
@ 10am PDT / 1pm EDT / 5pm GMT / 6pm CET

Reschedule Option #3:
@ 9:30am PDT / 12:30pm EDT / 4:30pm GMT / 5:30pm CET

So let me know who's up for it, and which ones would be OKAY.

SORRY!!! :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty: :guilty:


On March 25th, we'll have to go through this again, that's when Europe moves into DST. :boggled: :rolleyes:
sigh.gif



Have I mentioned how confusing I find time zones??? :dunce: :guilty: :crazy: :dopey: :ill: :boggled:

Sorry for using up all the smileys... I think they replenish though. heehee
 
Work permitting I'll make the race. Purple/Gold. If voting is still open for a time slot, I'll vote for the standard Sunday Noon EST. 👍
