Everyone is welcome! :D

Short series of sprint races with the TVR Tamora from the Recommended Garage List.
No need to purchase or bring the car. The car will be ready to pick up in the garage when you arrive, you just need to pick a colour, select the tires allowed, & set your preferences in the driving aids. Driving aids are allowed!
Tires allowed will be Sports Soft

You will not know what track we will be racing on until you arrive. That's the Surprise! :o)

There will be a warm-up / qualifying time of about 15 minutes before the 1st race.
Race #1: About 10-15 minutes damage light
Race #2: About 15-25 minutes damage heavy
With more races like Race #1, for anyone who wants to stick around, probably about 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
(Penalty setting (off or weak) will depend upon the track. Oops, I guess I gave away that as of this time I haven't actually picked a track yet! lol ;))

The race will be held in my lounge, so add me if you haven't done so already.

Please write "Fun Racers" when sending the PSN friend request.

Please do NOT join the room before the scheduled time, as this might cause problems in the setup. And please do remember to clear network cache and restart your PS3 before joining.

There will be no points awarded. Please try to keep the racing as clean as possible. But don't be too alarmed about the odd bump, alright? Chatter while driving is more than welcome, so grab your headset.

Please post below if you are interested, even if you are already a member of the club, and/or have raced before. A few is good, but the more the merrier.

Join the Fun Racers for a relaxed racing experience!
See Ya On The Track!

Yes I like the Mini.
But for variety sake, I picked a car that's very unlike the Mini! lol
Aceboy127 dropped by my lounge when I was trying out some cars to pick from, & we had a test race. It was pretty fun. Though of course he beat me. I'm not too proud to admit, I may need some traction control with this one. LOL
 
Off work on Thursday, so I will be there. 👍

👍 nifty! :)

So what is it, did everyone go on vacation this week?

Or is everyone hatin' on the Tamora?

It's a fun car!! I would not (over)steer you wrong!
(It's rear wheel drive too - so no understeer that's for sure. LOL)

I will try to make it. Is the car in the new car dealership? Don't think I have one of these yet.
 
I'll be there as well! It was fun with the Mini

No need to buy one - it's from the Recommended Garage - you just need to show up, and pick your colour & set your driving options.
 
Still on for tomorrow! Look forward to seeing all on track.

Anyone else? The more the merrier!

(I still haven't made a decision on the track... so it may wind up being a surprise to me as well. lol)
 
Is it too late to sign up?
 
this sounds fun, ill send you a friend request!
 
Well that was fun last night thanks guys!

Had about 7 racers turn up after all. :D

I felt bad about my wild spin out on the last race... I think I took the other car out with me. My car kept spinning & spinning & spinning.

Perhaps not the best handling car in the game.... LOL
 
Thanks for the Tamora Surprise watermelonpunch!

I had a blast!

The Tamora is a handful, but still quite fun!

Did you keep any pictures?

I should have saved the replay of the Tsukuba race, because the early leaders of the race had some sort of racing incident that allowed me to take the lead near the end of the race.

A bunch of the leaders seemed to be off in the sand in the final right-hander on the track, except for the one that I smacked because it was coming back across the track just in front of me. Sorry. I tried to miss whoever it was, but didn't, because I was surprised to see him there.

Respectfully,

Im down for future races. I will send u a friend request when i get out of work tonight. My psn: TFED
 
tfed - welcome! we have a lot of fun... and we don't know yet what car will be next week... and no one will know the track until the night!

(I tend to pick the track at the last moment - so it was a surprise to me as well! lol)


As for Tsukuba - I will look to see if I saved the replay... I only know that *I* was off in the sand more than I was on the track it seemed!!!
 
Good clean racing lastnight guys espeacially with those Tamoras, it was like driving on ice, lol. Can't wait to see what were in for next week.
 
Good racing. Thanks to all. I was the car stopped at Tsukaba at the front. I accidentally pushed Ace off the track, so I stopped to let him by. Unfortunately it was not the best place to stop. In hindsight I should have drove off slowly and let him catch up and pass.

Will miss the next couple of weeks, maybe three, due to travel. Have fun.
 
sorry i missed this, i had a long day at work and went to bed really early.
