Suzuka Wet Featured in This Week’s WRS

WRS Week 51 is Posted!

The WRSers are all wet this week, as we head out onto the track for a rain event!  This week’s race features the Race Modified version of the ’96 Lotus Elise, on one of the series’ all time favorite tracks, Japan’s famous Suzuka Circuit.  This highly challenging event requires all power upgrades with the exception of turbo chargers, and allows for all other tuning parts to be installed, including race suspension and race transmission.   Participants are free to select their own tune, or they can check out our GT5 Tuning Forums to look for something that will suit their needs.

The deadline for this week’s race is Monday, February 6th,  and only qualified, GTP_Registry Members are allowed to participate.  If you are eligible and decide to run this week’s event, be sure to post your splits in the thread, to compare to your fellow drivers and see how you stack up on our leaderboard.

Next WRS Online Event

WRS Online Week 21 will take place on Wednesday, February 1st, with convenient start times for members in both the European and North American regions.  This week’s combo is based on the WRS week 50 Time Trial, Running with the Night.  Again, only qualified GTP_Registry members can participate.  If you’re already in the registry and want to join us, visit the thread and sign up for this week’s event!

WRS Week 49 Results

Congratulations to GTP_Eclipsee, winner of the WRS Week 49 Time Trial.  There was strong competition throughout the ranks, as first and second place in the top 3 divisions were separated by about 2 tenths of a second or less.  Don’t forget to check out our video thread later this week, as our members and staff post up exciting and creative videos, featuring this week’s best performers!

    That alpha looks sharp, I didn’t know you could spray it. Can you spray the Ford Mark IV or the Ferrari 334?

    Hey guys, this looks really cool and I have no problem making a GTP_ tag, but why is this required? I’m just curious.. I’d like to use my main account, but if I need to use a GTP_ account I will.. but I’m just wondering.

      We require it as an identifier for online competitions. It’s a simple and effective way to keep track of participants, and to identify us to those outside of our community.

    i want to join WRS and have created a new GTP_ user id on my pc. i did this with my new email address and when i try to sign in on my ps3 i get a message saying ” you cannot sign in using another users id (email address)” anyone know how to get around this please? my old email address is no longer in use. any help would be great…..

      You will still need to create a Profile for the new account on your PS3. When creating the profile, I believe it gives you the option of either creating a new PSN account or using an existing one. You would want to use an existing account, and use the details of the account you created on your PC.

      The WRS Online Races are truly Global.
      The race times are listed as EU, and NA for timezone purposes, but any GTP_ drivers can race.
      For example, the last EU race had 18 drivers split into 2 rooms.
      Netherlands: 4
      U.S.A.: 4
      Canada: 3
      Great Britain: 2
      Australia: 2
      Finland: 1
      Poland: 1
      Belgium: 1

      The Na Race had 11 drivers in 1 room:
      USA: 6
      Canada: 3
      Australia: 1
      Belgium: 1
