I think you have a special skill for finding fun ideas for racing.

I would like to put my name down provisionally as I cant be sure nothing else will come up.

P.S.
I do hope the race is set to end in the dark. I think it could throw in a late widcard and mix things up a bit.

EDIT: Not sure what colour my Honda is.

👍 Thanks. That's a very good way of putting it. As I don't come up with these ideas...
But when there's a fun idea proposed - I'm all over it to make it happen!! :D

Will we be racing into the night? 👍:)

The time progression hasn't been firmly settled upon yet.

I myself would be pleased with a race that did the full range of light to dark. With just the dark with fireworks being a bit at the end. 👍
We'll see how interest shapes up for that. :)
 
Gtp name: Matticus88 PSN: Diplomatti Car colour: havn't got one yet, but i'll most likely spray it yellow or greenish-yellow
 
Yes, thanks for reminding me to make that clear in the OP. 👍

oil change, engine rebuild, chassis restoration, wheels, & paint are allowed

As well as horn tuning. :lol: :sly:
 
Oh yes, there's an s600 too I believe... and an s800 race car.
They're all pretty cool, IMHO.
But definitely all different specs.
 
I'm glad we are allowed: wheels.

All my practice would have been wasted otherwise.

Not only that but imagine if we made everyone drive unpainted cars with just primer!~! LOL

(I had a teacher in primary school who drove a jeep that was not fully properly painted, just primer. Everyone made comments about it.)

Add: I'm trying to picture us sitting there on the starting grid with primer painted cars flat on the ground with no wheels. LOL
 
I have a spare s800. I think it has something like 14,000 miles.
Actually I have a couple spares. (Both in that range of mileage.)
So let me know if that's all that's holding you back from signing up here. ;)

If I have the car I will most likely participate, I can send it back after.

The track looks wicked, where is it to be found?

Cote Dazur / cotedazur06 / color to be determined.
 
You can keep the car, heaven only knows I have enough of them.
(UCD & OCD compulsive shopper... no pun intended :rolleyes:)

And thanks for reminding me about getting the shared track acct info... I'm going get PSN: miata_1 to share it.
(Which is rather ironic because he took one look at the track map & said he doesn't want to try it in any car. :lol:)

I'm a idiot. Lol. I didn't see that its on the 14th, i've been waiting today lol

Dude it's Tuesday today!! :lol:

That sounds like something I would do... heehee.

Though I must say you were brave to be ready to go on this track today!! :D
You got a full week to take a gander at RMC Toscana and get the feel for the car. 👍

You have until next Wednesday. :)
 
How do i get that track? I havn't downloaded a track before

Send a FR (Friend Request) to PSN: miata_1
miata_1 has the track shared.
Once he accepts your FR...
In GTLife, you go to "community".
You click on his icon in the friends list of icons.
Then you click on the little picture of the track map (looks like a tiny little map of the High Speed Ring I think) - down the bottom left, on the right.
It will bring up the option to download it.
Once you have it, set it to favourites, and you'll be able to load it in practice or in your own lounge, or another lounge or lobby, or in arcade mode.
👍
Hope this makes sense.
You may delete miata_1 as a friend after getting the track.
(He won't be offended. lol He's just helping by being the track sharing acct. 👍)
 
Went to CC maps but the only one there is lindemier

?? You mean cc570?
Yes, he's got the map shared for the G4 race #1.

RMC Toscana is currently shared on PSN: miata_1

RMC Toscana is turbogeit's track but he usually has courses he needs shared for TCR. So I asked bender2011 / miata_1 to share it, because he never makes tracks & shares them anyway. lol
 
Okay, so we've rescheduled for:

Wednesday March 21st
@ 11:30am PST / 2:30pm EST / 7:30pm GMT / 8:30pm CET


Which will give everyone more time to prepare.
More time to gather up a few more drivers perhaps.
So hopefully this will work out for the best. 👍

Thanks all for being flexible for my scheduling. 👍 :) It's appreciated. I'm really looking forward to this race. :) :D

I've also updated it on the calendar. FYI
 
yes cc570. I will look again i could see only one map shared. but it is not the one we drove the 800 honda on yesterday
