There are however some areas where this is not the case, therefore, please use common sense to determine the boundary in these areas. However, if common sense fails then ask in the discussion thread.

Thread rules:

The following information cannot be discussed in this thread (they can, however, be discussed on MSN or via other private conversation methods):

The following information can be discussed in this thread :

• Total time for Laps 2 & 3
• Any settings discussion.

The posting of settings is encouraged, but it's certainly not mandatory. We respect anyone wishing not to post settings, so please do not publicly ask someone to post their settings, they will if they want to.


When posting times in order for them to be added to the Leaderboard, please ensure you specify which Game Spec (SpecII or SpecIII) was used. Failure to do so will result in your times being ignored and therefore not added to the leaderboard.


It is however expected for splits to be posted if you're taking part.


Sandbagging is frowned upon:

Quote:

Downplay one's ability (towards others) in a game in order to deceive.

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_Race 01 Submission (Spec???)) to me (Sphinx):

• You can submit a run for either SpecII or SpecIII, or both.
• you can submit only once per Game Spec
• please include in your submission PM your division, GTP_Tag, Game Spec and final race time
• the deadline for SpecII is Monday 6th October 11.59pm GMT
• the deadline for SpecIII is Monday 13th October 11.59pm GMT
• if you are unsure of the deadline try this site

Why Use GMT?:

Quote:

GMT is World Time and the basis of every world time zone which sets the time of day and is at the centre of the time zone map. GMT sets current time or official time around the globe. Most time changes are measured by GMT. Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.

Time verification:

Save your replay and keep it at least a full two weeks after your time has been submitted:

• all gold times (if any) each week will be required to submit a replay for verification
• any submitted time is subject to a time verification request
• when a time verification has been requested, the concerned racer must provide the correct replay within seven days of time submission
• failure to do so will result in the removal of the unverified submission from the results table
• video replays are not accepted as a form of verification

WOOOOOOO, getting all tingly now

This is going to be fun!
Was just thinking,if the Al car hits me is that considered a dirty run?

wow, that is one hard event!
100% clean race... i just tried some laps but it will be a really big task for everyone to submit a clean race... as the AI likes to crash right into you because the morrison has sloppy brakes so their braking point is much later!

is it also required to finish 1st or is that optional too?

Just do the best you can.

Add a bit of TC and it'll be easy to get a clean race.

I just had a couple of attempts and got a 100% clean race on my 2nd attempt .. it isn't that hard tbh! yes I agree the brakes are not that clever, but with early braking and some easy throttle control to get around the turns it's sweet and the AI are easily passed when you get off the inside part of the track Yep add a bit of TCS

Sweet combo Sphinx ... Good luck to all taking part

Yes.

Edit:

Mr P

Sweet combo Sphinx

Cheers.

This combo isn't as hard as it looks. It has been designed for enjoyment more than anything. Put in a small amount of time into the combo and you'll see what I mean soon enough.

What a dog of a car, i love it Hope people share some tunes.

Oh, and by the way. I have a few prizes to give away. I'll post them up as soon as I can.

If you're into GT memorabilia, then stay tuned.

This is going to be like taking Candy away from a baby . I drove this car the other night online and it was so much FUN .

Are there any rules concerning clutch use and in race tuning?

Stage 2 is lookin sexy. lol

Great combo Sphinx had a couple of quick goes huge fun.

No way I'll be up there with the best but i'll have fun trying..

Looks like fun ..

toVery likable. Nice variation to previous qualifer.
Does the result of this change our standings immediately or will a number of results eventually determine our position when private rooms occur?

Either way I'm lovin'it.

Yes, that would be nice to know, what are the limits (formula) for demoting or promoting?

Higligted, splling error:

DIvsion 1: One driver qualifies from each section (1 x Gold, 1 x Silver & 1 x Bronze)

From what I remember in a previous post, this won't affect your status in the divisions. And as Sphinx says it is optional for registered member, I'd assume its a 'fun' event ?
I stand to be corrected of course.

ok, cool..

But the interest about the formula used remains.

AM Corvette- I need to get a USB memory stick to transfer replays to the internet for when I get golds.
