Hi,
I'm looking to start a mature online group of like minded racers from the U.K. This group is intended for racers who want to race but because of busy lives and schedules they find it hard to join leagues or groups.
Why U.K. only? This is to reduce latency and to give the best possible performance during races. I personally have awkward shift patterns and my online friends have busy lives with work and children, so were not always online at the same time. So I’m looking to start network of racers who will be able to join a lounge in the hope of finding like minded, clean and honest racers from the U.K.
For ease of use I intend to run a Mini challenge using stock Mini cooper s on Racing medium tires for the time being, they can be found in the recommended folder of your online garage. Once we have a healthy list of racers we can start to organize meetings and events with different cars.
If you would like to join then please add your age, psn id and any information on your network type including hardwired or Wi-Fi connection.


!!UPDATE!!
Could all members join the GBRC social group; this will make it a lot easier for members to organize race events and meetings, and help me to keep track of names.
Also adding a link to the group in your profile signature will help.
Thank you
Jason

!!UPDATE 2!!
With the ever increasing Members the GBRC have established a new website
We have an international events board for non U.K. drivers to post events.

Also not to hijack the thread but if you guys play other games and want mature people to play online with you could always try out lmzf.com. I've been a member there for nearly three years. 30+ but there is the odd exception

Anyway hope to catch you guys

May have raced with some of you before on FM2/3, Just come over to the PS3 for GT5 and loving the game but am looking for some clean racing online with the sensible folk we all know are out there!
Please PM or contact by chat - online most evenings...
 
Greetings Lunchbox and friends. I'm in the UK and I'm 50 years old, so guess I qualify to a degree. Problem is that my head is still only seven, I get excited by puppys and icecream vans. Still, I do like to race, the more rubbish the tyres the better. I think that I'm supposed to have 20meg, but a test put it at about 8. I'm wireless, but I don't have a clue about any other technical detail. I don't even know how to add friends to my PS3 account. My PS3 I/D is Zolon32, by the way.

Now, I can't remember what else you wanted, sorry.

Toodle pip.
 
Please count me in too!

Age : 32
PSN : Spyder_Si
Internet : BT 20meg
Equipment : DFGT ... Fanatec GT2/Clubsport/Rennsport ordered!
Leamington Spa (Warwickshire)

At best I get 1-2 hours per night and have found online on GT5 quite frustrating so far, would love to be part of this group!
 
So, if any of you chaps know how to flag me when you're racing I'd be delighted. Unfortunately I wouldn't know how to go about finding you on line if my life depended on it, sorry.

Should think that I'll be loitering about 8:00pm though, if anyone interested.
