Meh, didn't have a single good race in an hour and a half. Punters galore tonight :grumpy:

Saw you out there, Honeycar, but we never got a chance to race each other.
 
I'm surprised at the actions of other GT5P teams, I accidently bump a certain member going into degner because he braked way early due to a very slow driver, but my bump doesn't send him off the track he still stays on, so he thinks the next race proper revenge for the small incident is to hit me so hard going into degner that I go all the way through the sand and hit the barrier on the other side.

I've only seen illiterate punters take such actions over small accidents until now

Sounds like justice to me! đź‘Ť Earth you have no idea what crazy things those people on line are going to do.. The WE is just like every other event that PD has had..DC, punting.. No way to have a good race anymore.. Unless its just us GTP..

I have noticed that some of the other tagged guys are not as clean as we are..

OH well...I fear going back to WE since last night I was punted 7 times in a row in Turn 1 or the esses...people..
 
Wow, that was... not good. LOL. I haven't spent that much time in the sand in a loooong time.

Loveisdead - Isn't he a GTP'r? Good racing man!

Digital - sorry for the bump. You were on the brakes waaaaaaaaaay earlier then I expected going into the hairpin. Thanks for letting my by the second go 'round.

Moose - I was going to have words for you, lol. Then I saw you stopped. Knew that was TOTALLY out of character, so I was surprised when you seemed to just keep going. Thanks for the wait, man. đź‘Ť

That last race at 11:24 central was almost too much. I was offed every lap, but the last, at least once. Still climbed up to 5th, but still. Wow. Digital, didn't even notice going by you. Were you in the maroon F430? Thought you had a black one.
 
Did you ever have one of those days? :ouch: Just couldn't keep it on the black stuff. And I wasn't punted once.:dopey: Will try again tomorrow.
 
Morning guys.

Last night I'd great races with GTNDC-Honeycar [CH] & zabeu [GB]. I'm going to enter now, I love summer holidays :_D

EDIT: ouch, new Playstation 3 update...I hope this one won't do with my Playstation 3 what have done with the 2.40 on some others out there O_o
 
undergoing some maintanence... :(

I think it's fixed now, because I was just able to check my Golf V time. I'll be at the xx:24 race if that's true.

Edit: The host was a sook. I spun out, sort of my own fault, but it was a chain reaction. I had to brake for the slow poke in a red GT-R in front of me, then I ran slightly wide trying not to hit him, then an F430 went up my inside because he didn't need to brake, and that left me in an awkward position to take the corner: wheel on outside grass, I spun- then waited for a clean spot to jump back without getting in someone's road.

Timppaq, were you waiting for me or did they ram you?

Edit 2: Wow, 3 host disconnects in a row, they're all dipsticks tonight.
 
They rammed me as usual, almost seems like more there than ever before wearing the tag seems to attract punters... :(

...but I wouldn't give it away... :)

The punters are extremely bad in this event. Which is why I bring into question again the attraction of this lowsy event? 750 PP Suz is free guys, and there are far less punters.
 
Might be true, but it's worth the pain for me when I get amazing races with the [JP], [US] and others... this thing might not last long, I fear.

EDIT: I'll do a few starting 48..

I like it for that too, and because of the equal cars. In fact I would like to know more about tunning (I'm reading the Scaff guides in fact) because on the 750PP Suzuka races I feel that my bad point is on a high percent, the tunning of my car.

If you don't like reading, check out my garage- The Lion's Den.:) Great tunes in there for all manner of 750 PP cars. Take your pick, and if you're feeling kind enough, write a review of the car.đź‘Ť
 
I'm on this now, DFP pedals are acting crazy, I can hold the gas still but it will flucuate up to +20% on it's own....or sometimes even 10% throttle will stick

EDIT: Oh come on! Why am I seeing the throttle 20% engaged when I'm on the brakes?!?!
 
So sorry, MisterWeary, I pride myself on getting close and not hitting, but I shouldn't have tried that with you seeing that it was the first time we raced.

Not making excuses but what happened was I was right on your bumper going into the corner, I was waiting for the 2 meter markers to appear out of the windshield to know when to brake, once the first one appeared I went to hit the brakes and it was too late.

Please don't take me as a punter, I am a clean driver just tried to race too close in that corner. Gave you plenty of room elsewhere but just tried a stupid move in that corner... đź‘Ž
 
Some good racing last night.

1st corner is always a lottery..but I had been away from the tracks for a while (MGS4) and was surprised to see an international field.

Also is it me or is the online much smoother than when the game launched?? Less cars jumping around on track, even if they are from Japan or Australia.

Had a ton of fun. Good race against GTP_Vaxel.
:)
 
Sorry about that GTP_Timppaq [FI] I wasn't sure whether I hit you on the first corner of Lap 2, I didn't feel anything and presumed you ran in too hot (you kinda flew by at the braking zone).

And Sorry to GTP_Earth, I wasn't meaning to block you or ruin your race with the [AU] driver in the other red GTR, i was waiting for Timppaq to elt him through.

Sorry about alll that!

Good race GTP_Timppaq! You were all over me in that first lap and I really had to work to keep that place!
 
I was having a great race last night, nailed the first corner clean and took off getting to T1 with a 5 second lead, after a couple of little mistakes (over cautiousness trying not to lose my lead) I was about 3 seconds ahead at the end of the 2nd lap....and then the host quit or connection dropped. The host was a GTP name but I don't remember who :(
 
Hi guys!

Had many great races with all of you over the past few days. Thanks!

I've been bumped several times to the gravel traps :grumpy:, accidentally bumped some of you too :dunce:, but mostly due to mistakes on my side or lagging.đź‘Ť

Hope to see you all @ Suzuka tonight!
 
alot of dirty JP drivers. Maybe they think the same when they see EU drivers punting so they think were all the same. Ime yet to this day to get a clean 1st corner but its funny when you get punted off, fall down to 12th place and when you carry on to the next few corners there's plenty off cars in the sand and your 5th or 6th again.

This has been the problem with DFP/momo pedal box since day one and my DFP pedal box also had that pedal problems.

It is no suprise that Logitech revised the pedal box internal for the DFGT.
 
Strange bug while joining at xx:12. It took a lot of time to finish the loading of the blue line so for me the race started with my car after the firt turn and with the number "-30" on the screen. Then the number dissapear and I was on the track but without the possibility to do anything. I can't exit, and the screen doesn't show anything. I see the cars passing through me as soon as the double lap me. I won't like to exit the game because I wanna save the credits.

Took one picture with the mobile:



Has anyone experienced this before? Did anyone see me on the road like a ghost or something?

EDIT: Lucky me, when the guys racing finished the race, the race ended for me too and the game sent me directly to the online screen for join into another one. I'm going to save the progress right now haha
