The GTPlanet PSN Registry has quickly grown to be the largest organized group of racers in the online world of Gran Turismo 5: Prologue with more than 412 members. More importantly, it’s going to be the most important set of credentials that you can have when private race rooms come along this fall, as a requirement to compete in officially-sanctioned GTPlanet online events. In anticipation of this, the Registry’s organizer, Sphinx, is dividing members into separate divisions based upon their performance in an official qualifying time trial. The new divisions will allow online racers to enjoy much more competitive races with each other this fall, and will give you a good idea of where you stand with the rest of the world (or would that be…the ‘Planet?).
Everyone must complete the qualifier, even if you are currently listed on the registry. Put in your best lap at Suzuka Circuit in the Ferrari F430, then follow Sphinx’s instructions and submit your time before September 26, 2008 September 14, 2008. That’s it! Remember, it’s not a race, just a qualifier that will determine your eventual division. If you do a lot of work to put in a fast time, you may be placed in a more competitive division in which you are not competitive, so just be honest with yourself and have a good time.
[…] Qualifier Ends Sunday Just a reminder to those of you who have yet to submit a time for the GTPlanet Registry Qualifier – the deadline has been moved up to this coming Sunday, September 14, 2008 at midnight GMT. […]
