Check calendar, pray that wife is working.
Load up GT5, drool. Turn off anticipated, and annoying, GT jazz music.
Hop in Fiat 500 (yep, the old one). Amble slowly, very slowly, around the Nürburgring, taking in the scenery.
Swap the Fiat for something a tad faster. Thrash the hell out of the Nürburgring.
Eat.
Back to GT5.
Wife comes home, looks at me despairingly...

I'm going to pour through the dealership car lists for about 20 minutes and drool at the level of detail on the premium models, while I play around with the calibration settings on my tv.

Remember to stock up on easy to eat food and set alarm for every 2 hours in order to do some stretches, or short walks to get the blood flowing again:tup:
My 1st order of the day would be to buy the Civic EK CTR, and then to Tsukuba to get used to the new physics - i'll only go online after a week or so - must get used to physics 1st!

ummm its hard to say really what I'll do first. I want to drive a few cars on Nurburgring, I want to get started right away on the career so I can unlock cars and have money to upgrade cars, and I also want to try the track editor. Still have TGS coming up so who knows what will be shown there to add to my dilemma.
So much to do and not enough time.

I agree, when I see any other sports car while walking I just look, but when a VIPER drives by I stop and drool.

If I have enough money for one as my first car, I'm a DeLorean and then taking it out to Laguna Seca!! 
. Then, I'm gonna do a few races, collect some funds and buy a few small cars and soup them up like crazy!

First, some licences ( bronze will do). Second, a cheap, beaten Japanese car (MX-5/Trueno/MR2/S13 etc etc). Third.. PROFIT! Fourth: Restart the domination campaign of the MFT in GT5..

It's been a while since I played a GT game, so I'll may be a bit off.
1.Read the Manual.
2.Admire the intro.
3.Setup the options, video options, etc.
4.Look at all the cars in the dealerships.
5.Try driving some fast cars on Arcade Mode.
6.Try out the new stuff on Arcade Mode.
7.After #5 and 6, buy--either used or new--the Mitsubishi Evo X.
8.If I can't afford the Evo X, I'll maybe just complete all the license tests and get me some reward cars as compensation.
9.Drive for real.
For #7: Maybe not the Evo X, maybe the AE86. I don't know what to choose. Maybe while I do #4 I'll find the car I'll need to begin A-Spec.

1. Gently take out the disc and slowly insert it into the PS3
2. Admire the case and manual
3. Go straight to the settings, change the units from KPH to MPH, basically everything to imperial, set uP custom soundtracks, re-map the controls.
4.Go to arcade mode to get a feel of the physics and test drive some premiums.
5.Go to GT mode (Life) and check out the manufaturers to see whats there, admire some cars.
6. License tests.
7.Buy an old Evo or RX-7 as a starter car (if possible) and work my way through GT!

Its certain I wont get any sleep the night before.
I will definitely start by looking at the box
Then ill go through the dealership
Then Ill buy myself a Japanese car with potential as I always do in Gran Turismo
Then its license time
But ill be looking forward to stuff like, driving at night on the Nurburging, with a 190e evo against a BMW e30 M3 (They HAVE to have the M3 they can't miss such a legendary car)

Day before:
Get snacks and drinks, cook a pot of mince for quick food for the next 5 days. See girlfriend for goodbye loving prior to my hibernation.
After game arrival:
Admire box.
Watch the intro.
Get very excited.
Sort out settings (MPH, turn off in race music, turn down in menu sound effects, see if there's a no HUD option).
Browse dealerships, TVR first, look for muscle cars too.
Check used car lot for awesome old FR car of any description.
Licences.
Check used car lot for awesome old FR car of any description.
Play for pretty much 5 days (booked Wednesday, Thursday and Friday off work...)
Main variations will be if I find an awesome FR car early on, I shall take it out on the track for a play, definitely try track creator to see what the scenery options are like.
Can't wait.

Tuesday 2nd November. Around 11.30am the postman hopefully arrives with my copy of GT5.
11.30-5pm Watch intro 20x and then start with the licences.
6pm-11pm continue with licences but I will spend 1hr in My Lounge to see how online works. May even create a private room and have a quick race with friends.
I will continue to do the above for the next 14 days. After this my timetable will be playing GT5 from late afternoon onwards.
