I nearly forgot about that concrete section. But who is going to watch so that people don't cut the corner? Anyone willing to help as a track marshal?

Well, simple.
I do watch the replays and it's nothing to just pop through the concrete just to check.
I think everyone ought to save the replays in case they're involved in an accusation so the drivers involved can review it in case there's a discord about some issue.
But I would like to ask for volunteers to save the replay, and to volunteer to look at a lap/driver if there's a complaint lodged about a concrete cutter.

Now, about accidental concrete cutting... It should be treated as any other off-track. In that if you accidentally cut the concrete, you should let off, not pass until after the next turn, and if you passed by accident give the spot back.
The exception to this would be if there was a car spun out in the actual track on the tarmac and you went on the concrete to avoid collision with an incident in progress.

Besides...

About the whole concrete thing, I vote for at least 2 wheels on asphalt. I trust people to do as they're told and if they don't someone will probably notice and be mad and complaining about it and that guy will probably not be racing with us again. :)

Very likely the case. :lol:

Mine has 130 bhp , 850 kg and 385 PP.

I need to re-tune it.

Just make sure you can get into a lounge with the setting of Tuning Prohibited. You can test this in your own lounge.
I say test it in advance if you've done anything, so you're not scrambling at the last minute to remove something you missed.

No fair, stop cheating 👎 .

There's no way to cheat with tuning prohibited regulation, I think. :lol:
It won't let you in if you have too high hp.
"Too high hp" referring to his 130hp. :lol: :dopey:

You can win it by winning the Yaris Championship in A-spec I think using any Yaris.

No no, the Vitz races in aspec & bspec get you Prius prize cars.
It's the Sunday Cup - the bspec gets you the Yaris, the Aspec gets you the Vitz.

Whoa! What colour is that?
It looks like Pepto Bismol. :lol:

OK, I should have this car (geez :rolleyes:) but the race is about 1 hour too late :ill:

Too late for what? :( :( :(
Is that past your bed time in Finland?

Michouw / GTP_MichMich/ Yaris / French blue
Welcome!
:nervous: :scared: :nervous:
:sly: :D :D

Yup, was a very proud moment for me as it was the first time I went on my own, without the parents and driving myself... Sorry :dopey:.

I just teasing you!
Indeed, congratulations on your on your own outing. 👍
(Sorry about the structure of that sentence. :boggled: :lol:)

I will be joining, it's too much fun to not join. (fiancee have not yet approved but it's only wheel noise that is disturbing and i also have a ds3 ;) )

When you had mentioned "wheel noise" before... I assumed you meant tire screeching sound effects!! :lol: I hadn't realized you meant the noise your wheel rig makes is the problem!! I guess you wear headgear to listen to the game sound? And then she has to hear just the wheel being wrenched about?

You're a girl :dunce: ? I didn't know that. And for the concrete, I say ban it altogether because it wasn't there in GT3 and previous games. GT4 introduced the concrete, which was really a bad idea.

Yeah, that and they should've kept the wall at the chicane at Monte Carlo. 👎 for removing that wall just because they removed it in reality... I mean they removed it in the real world because people were being killed or injured I guess. That's not happening in gt5. :dopey: :boggled:

And yes... Well... No, it's been, I'm afraid, many years since I've been referred to as a "girl". :lol: ;) But yes, I am that gender.

👍 :D

I mean I don't go around advertising it everywhere. But I don't exactly hide it either. :lol:
I think it's funny though that you didn't know.

In that case we should all have the car then? Unless we stupidly sold it off :crazy: .

Are you pretty :sly: ?
 
What's so funny about it being bedtime in Finland?? :dopey:
It's actually close-ish to dinner time here for some... 4pm. But our dinner hour is at around 6pm.
Is that CEST time zone in Finland?
I really try to pick a time on Sunday that can accommodate myself, and both sides of the Atlantic. Since I really enjoy racing with a lot of Europeans, as well as North Americans. 👍 But it's really tough to schedule that way... so that we can all race together.

In that case we should all have the car then? Unless we stupidly sold it off :crazy: .

Yeah, well unless you never completed the Sunday Cup in aspec nor bspec. :boggled:
Which even the Subcompact Economy Endurance might be a bit much for someone who hasn't even completed the Beginner Series Sunday Cup races. :lol:

Thing is, I just think the Vitz is uncool... Because well, that 1-make Vitz race in gt4 made me feel like grandmas with hot roller curlers & old men with old man hats were driving the other Vitz cars, and then I felt like a grandma driving the Vitz in that race. It was the one at Fuji... :boggled: Why they put the Vitz race on Fuji I cannot imagine! :rolleyes: I think they did it AGAIN in the Vitz race in gt5 too. :boggled:

And also, it's called Yaris in the U.S. I guess. When my sister rented a subcompact economy car back in May when she was visiting with us for my wedding reception (ahem ahem ;))... she wound up with a Yaris rental car. She hated it. I told her to try the Vitz race in gt5. :lol: :sly: But I don't think she got to that yet. (I'm pretty sure though that she completed the Sunday Cup!!! :lol:)

Are you pretty :sly: ?

Oh yes, I'm very pretty. :lol: :sly:
I'm also very married. ;)
What's more, I'm married to an active GTPlanet member (ahem lol), so mind your manners Mr. ;)

The reason you may not know him is because sharing the same ps3, we don't participate in the same races. :(
 
That sucks cause I was hoping you had raced each other. (Other than split screen) So if you were faster you could rub it in :sly:. Also love the fwd Fords owning the big V8s... Ford and fwd power :gtpflag:.
 
Geez, I'm supposed to go to sleep at 9pm BST, because my school begins at 6:45 BST!!! :(:(

I'm still a little 18-year-old approaching the exams...

Finland is CET+1 ^^ race starts 23:00 over there. Poor little carb, still have scholl which he has to attend.

Correctamundo! Hah yeah i've solved the game noise problem already, the wheel is harder to fix ^^ I just have to stop steering as much. :P

By the way, my fiancee isn't some evil girl that doesn't allow me to play or anything, she just happens to like sleeping before going to work at 5 am the next day. ;)

Oh why do someone always go totally bananas when someone turns out to be a woman. ^^ I had no idea either but who cares really? Because we're here for racing right? not dating. :P
 
I'll be in... Yellow Vitz with Black Wheels. as for concrete section, if it's part of the track, then it's part of the track.

I've heard that you Finns are the best students in europe anyway so you shouldn't have any problems graduating ;) (or wait.. maybe it's hard work behind good results.. naaah)

By the way, did i just spell school "scholl"? Maybe I should have payed more attention at school..

I rekon we have decided it's not track so only 2 wheels on it or face Melons wrath :scared:.
 
Only 2 wheels on concrete , so it's more a support than cutting.

Simple answer : No.


it is ok I thought but you never know;)


I did a little session of twenty minutes and I managed one 1:45.962 (lapped car)

I think I can get down to 1:45.8 xx 👍

Add about 3 or 4 secs and you got your time on the race. ;)
 
Can t we cut the "concrete" or not?
It looks like we're going with NOT cutting the concrete.
(More people in favour of 2 wheels on tarmac, and not scooting over concrete.)
I will update the OP soon.
But that's the deal. Practice lap times should assume no concrete cutting. 👍

:lol:
Yeah, but another issue is that we don't tend to like the same kinds of racing & cars.
I don't think we've ever tried split screen. At least not in gt5. I think we tried it ages ago w/ another racing game and it was too confusing for me. :boggled: :lol:
Grrr why can't I have a girl like you 👎 ?!
You may someday, and eat those words when she's vying for all your time on the ps3 for her own racing. :lol:
And what made that really funny is that my PSN name is pronounced like that :lol: .
Yes, I know, I figured as much, that's why I call you Mr.!!! :lol: It's shorter. :lol:
Matte Pink. :dopey:

Soo:

Diogo G./Ya no ma PSN/Yarris/Matte Pink
I thought it might be! But it looks lighter & glossy in that GT Auto picture!
There's a lighter colour pink in the DLC paint pack (which I haven't gotten), that is a light pink glossy. Very nice. Geeky30 used it in the Fiat 500 race...

Oh, being a woman, I would never assume the fiance to be evil! :lol: I wouldn't want to listen to that racket while trying to sleep either!! :lol:
Just ask my husband about "The Circus of Value". :scared: :ouch: :rolleyes: :ill: 👎

This car is now in the OCD:
Suzuki GSX-R/4 Concept '01
I've LONG been planning to organize an event with this "car".
Just a heads up to shop the OCD and pick up this car so you're prepared when I pull that out! :D
 
Wait... isn't this how it works? :
CEST = CET +1 = 22:00 in Finland

Oh I forgot that it's called CEST during the summer.. then CEST+1 is Finland time. They don't have central european time at all. That is what i meant. :)
 
CAR SPECS INFO

I'm using the Yaris.
It was a fresh prize car @ 0miles.
Did oil change and it went from 84hp to 88hp.
It now has about 180 miles on it.
Didn't need an engine refresh yet.
Did an oil change.
Now @: 91hp / 335pp

Mine is 90hp - 334pp :confused: I'm 38 058 km so maybe i should use a "car restoration" ticket... :(
 
Ah so that's what you use those tickets for? always wondered, they felt so unnecessary :) Haven't even checked out my car yet, maybe it's old as *** but i don't really think 1pp make that much difference in the long run. It's not like we usually race for thousands in every race here.
