S*** happens. I do feel for those in other regions who can't compete in this competition, but at least the others have a more gracious attitude than yours. If you think GT5 is so rubbish then sell it and don't litter GTP with your sour grapes.
 
Does anyone know if it will be on pro physics?

BTW it says on the GTP home page that you can register at gtacademy.eu for this tournament. I have registered and I noticed that it did not ask for a PSN ID but an e-mail instead so hopefully putting on the e-mail that your PSN ID is registered should be enough info for PD.

Also do we just choose the 350z and go arcade TTs? or are we supposedly going to be downloading something from the store for this event?
 
The thing you've registered on that site isn't for the competition, it's just for general info on GT5P I think. The registration for the competition is tomorrow, and it will use the PSN ID.

Once you've registered, I'm presuming there'll be a special section in the online game modes for this, and *maybe* a special 350Z will be unlocked. If that's the case, I'd expect a download will be prompted for anyone who's registered.
 
gunna need to brush up on my skills for Eiger, i presume it's the stock 350z we will have to use? lol i cant wait to see how many people trying to cheat by wallriding, I race properly so add me if you wish, PSN is screen name off here :)

I don't think you have to be a citizen of these countries to sign up.
Those are just the available languages.

It could be that the selected Countires are the ones that are sponsoring the event within SCEE. This may also explain why the event is Europe only, because it's Sony Europe paying for it. When was the last time Europeans were allowed to enter an event organised by SCEA?
 
What do think about this?

Good or bad suggestion?

GT Academy could get a proffesional race driver to drive the track the competition is based on in the game using a steering wheel, pro physics, manual gear box and no driving aids and let them have it work a week or so, so that they get a really good time.

Then they will have all the telemetry for the race driver - his braking points, throttle braking openings gears and steering angle etc plotted on a graph.

Then whoever is closest to the proffesional drivers telemetry wins the competition?

Man, you should reconsider some serious professional help. With stance like that you wouldn't stand a 2 minute pressure in real-race..
 
I'm not sure if anyone else has thought about this, but during Stage Two - the national finals. I assume it is going to be a big lan match or something similar. Seems to me like Nissan would be better picking the best drivers, not necessarily the quickest. I'm sure this will be the case, it makes very little sense to throw someone who is really fast - but has little previous driving experience - into a 24 hour race prepped car.

At the "lan match", i'm sure they will be on the lookout for drivers who are thinking properly and racing clean yet aggressively. Not those who are setting really fast laps but at the cost of plowing someone else into the gravel - though I wonder how many top 2 TT guys are dirty racers?

This is all speculation of course..
 
LOL just want something new. Honestly i don't think of winning this.
My best place in a reasonable car was 80 or something like that...
Well you never know :)

Quel surprise, a negative comment.

On the subject of negative comments though, I'm presuming the "3rd June" new opening date for the comp is now no longer true, being that it's now 8PM GMT and it isn't working still...

From the website, it looks like the competition was set up by Sony Europe. If you really have an issue with not being included, take it up with Sony US (or whatever they are called), instead of us.

Well its a good job i put im 18 when i did my PSN account :)
Click to expand...
I'd imagine they did that because of some legal term, so if you're not 18, if you get to stage 2 they probably wouldn't let you go on anyways.

There doesn't seem much point you entering if you're under 18 and it's stated in the t&c you must be over 18, you could be taking the place from a valid competitor.

If you are over 18, it doesn't matter, your post was a bit vague.
