I'm still looking for more racers for a Sunday afternoon/evening race if you are keen. 6:30 is flag drop usually online from 5:30-6:00
Racing is kept to no longer than 30 mins for those of us with commitments on Sunday nights: )
First two Series have been good.

Cool will add you on psn, first track is shared from my account. If you want to pm me an email address I will add you to the mail trail which makes comms a little easier instead of reposting across 3 forums :)

15 laps fully tuned non-RM so far but need to test if the 22b wrx owns the rest of the field.

And RM cars make the the racing a little more formal. But sign me up to it anyway or give me a PM when you open the thread.
 
Not sure yet, I suggest tuning both cars RM'ed and making/tuning them equal so there are no advantages over one car.

I would join, but I can't drag myself away from F1 2010 at the moment, what with the season starting in a couple of days.

Will be sure to join you guys some day down the track though

Sat down to play on Saturday afternoon and after completing some A-spec grinding I checked the UCD and low & behold there was a Falcon XR8 in there for $1.2M.

Lucky I had millions at the time (thinly veiled brag) to buy as I have been searching for this car for a while now.

Very impressed with the performance, handles like a dream and has plenty of punch to match.
 
^ I'm still waiting for it to pop up, but got to make sure I've got the cash for when it does.

Who watched the Grand Prix yesterday? Poor old Webber was a bit disappointing...
 
I watched both the F1 and the FIA GT early Sunday morning. While watching the f1 I couldnt help but think that the RB7's of red bull arent exactly the same. Thoughts on the movable rear wing were 50/50 although I did notice a slight increase in top end speed for the drivers that would activate it compared to those who wouldnt.

Had high hoped for Webber seeing as he qualified 3rd and looked to be in good shape. Still think theres something funny with the Red Bull pit stop stratergist becuase Vettel would always get a clear path to the pit exit whilst Webber always seemed to get caught up by traffic??
 
I also have mixed thoughts on the rear wing. Some people seemed to get a good advantage from it but watching Button try to get by Massa early in the race made me wonder whether it does anything at all.

Regarding Webber, he looked to be in trouble right from qualifying. 3rd doesn't sound bad, but he was nearly a full second slower than Vettel. He admitted at the end of the race that he struggled with tyres, so I'm not sure whether that's why they adopted the 3 stop strategy or whether that was the plan from the beginning. Either way, it seems the 2 stop strategy was clearly the better one.

It could be a personal thing, perhaps he is struggling to get a feel for the new tyres, or it may have been a setup thing. Either way hopefully he can sort it out for Malaysia because even he admitted it is not usual for him to not be able to match the pace at the front.

I would love to see him at least win a couple of grand prix's this year. I can't help but think that last year was probably his best chance to win the championship because Vettel is going to be very hard to beat this year...
 
Would love to see some modern FPV/Ford/HSV/Holden cars in the game, along with the classics (Phase III GT-HO anyone?). Would love to see Bathurst get a run, along with both the Adelaide and Gold Coast street tracks as well!

Nice car, Seems to be in wickedly good condition.

Any chance of you removing that "COMMODORE" banner from the windscreen though?

Geez, I don't know, it's been on the car since 2003, when I got to go around Bathurst just before the 1000 as part of Commodore's 25th anniversary.

Maybe one day as it's starting to show it's age a bit.

Thanks for the reply.
 
Hey everyone. Just thought I'd pop in here 'cause I'm moving to Sydney in May/June this year.

Anyone an Ex-pat here willing to give some tips?

I would also welcome any tips in general on the Sydneysider ways of life - rental info. good places to live, good ways to stay frugal, the job market etc.

I'm also bringing out my NTSC PS3 with my wheel and such. I'm pretty interested in what the best internet connection or ISP deal is 'cause I'm going to be using the internet lots (I'm aware of the common cap structure)

Hope I can play GT with some of you in the future since I'm gonna be in a totally new place with no friends at first.

Thanks in advance!
 
Hey guys, I myself am not from Australia.
But I'm making a league with drivers representing their own countries.
I just realized we don't have any Aussies.
Would any of you guys be interested?
PM me.

Mark Webber, what a legend! After seeing him qualify 18th I almost didn't watch the race, but very glad I did in the end đź‘Ť

Given 2 more laps, and he would of beat vettel, mark was a man possesed.

I reckon. I would have loved nothing more than to see him beat Vettel. Two races in a row now he has been the fastest man on the track. If only Red Bull can get their KERS sorted he will be back up the front
 
This pains me to say this but any Aussie content (except Bathurst) is no more a reality than me getting a BJ from Miranda Kerr!
We're to small a market to worry about and no amount of protest will change that....
Just look all over the forums for what people want and what actually happens!
I hate it but hey I'm just not getting my hopes up you know??
