Hello everyone,

As the title says, I am planning to have a 16 player kart race on the Nurburgring 24h circuit.

As I am playing in the Asia region, my time is GMT +0800, hence a schedule will have to be made on when the room opens in the open lobby.

Please reply to this thread to signify your interest in the race. Your GTPlanet username will be recorded in the list below:

1. Pnuttbutter
2. GrahamTurismo
3. Possum-Eater
4. Tr3x
5. tigersharkdude
6. jdmAP1
7. Cheese Truths
8. Gt5-Fan
9. HighPlainsDrftr

16.

This race is just for fun, so join even if you are a rookie. The in-game time for the track would be set to 0530, with a time progression of 1, light mechanical damage, Sunny weather (dynamic), no regulations on the assist, although no assists is preferred.

Cheers,
Pnuttbutter

EDIT: A preliminary race would be held with the current list, today, February 6 2011, at 0000h GMT +8, 1100h GMT -5, 0100h GMT+9.
Room number would be put up 10-5 minutes before said time.

EDIT: Room Number is: 1472-6118-3615-5264-3534 *NEW*

Today is the day. Hope to see more people joining this time.

Be prepared to run a race of about 45 minutes. Sounds like fun to me, but time on-line doesn't work so well. Hope you get a full field.

CHEERS!
 
@CanoeTTT

Yeah the race would last about 45-55 minutes judging from the lap times (about 10-15 minutes each). A shorter race of 2 or 3 laps could be arranged if you don't want to stay online for too long.

Time is set at 0000h GMT+0800 for now. That would make it 1100h at GMT -0500. Please let me know if the time is alright. Arrangements can be made for a different time as long as it is a reasonable time for all parties participating. Date is to be set, although as soon as possible is preferred. We'll have to wait for a full house.

Game room number will be posted on the first post when the room is opened.

@GrahamTurismo
Yes around that time, just not today. Sorry. We'll have to wait for a full house.

@Possum-Eater
Okay. I'll message you on the PS3 when it's open :)

Finally, Asia Region! I'm GMT +9 so good enough. Please count me in. No set date as of yet right?
 
@jdmAP1
Yes, no set date yet as we only have 6/16 slots filled. Hopefully we can get enough by 0000h GMT+8, 1100h GMT-5, 0100h GMT+9, today February 2 2011.

@Cheese Truths
Sorry about putting you on the list so late. I don't remember seeing your post there earlier. Since it's your first post, I think it may have been screened by the moderators first, that's why I think your post didn't show up. Welcome to GTPlanet!

Cheers,

Lol 4 laps?

This will take a lot more than just 40-45 min... we are talking 1½ hours maybe more...

Its a frekin gokart which goes 120?
 
@Myrhoej20
A lap of the Nurburgring 24h layout takes 12-15 minutes, and since the kart tires seem to last pretty long, along with it's fuel, 4 laps would be an hour maximum. The worst case would mean one pitstop, making it 1 hour and 5 minutes. Are you in or are you out?

@Possum-Eater
Thanks. That would be appreciated greatly.
 
I think you'll need to pit at least once.

It's a lot of fun to run in a pack of 7 or 8 clean drivers through this track.

Actually it's a lot of fun running in a pack of 7 or 8 clean drivers on any track!


CHEERS!
 
@CanoeTTT
So can I count you in? I think we'll do a preliminary race first with the current list, because it's getting boring waiting for slots to fill.

I'll try to get the room opened today, February 5 2011, 0000h GMT+8, 1100h GMT-5, 0100h GMT+9.

Cheers,
Pnuttbutter
 
@HighPlainsDrftr
You're not too late, I can still add you to the list. the room will be opening soon though.
 
It seems like I need to pay more attention to the time. I was thinking backwards- thought it was 1pm- I feel like an idiot. At least I know now!
 
I like this idea and we're doing this in my championship. I don't think I'll be able to make the races though.
Nice idea though. :)
 
Sorry Pnuttbutter,

Not able to make this race, but I am going to follow the thread as it sounds like fun.


CHEERS!
