[Gravitron]

Good heavens this update is large/slow. But it will be worth it to be able to control trophy visibility per game. Oh wait, I only play one game.

Yeh but now it says PSN instead of Playstation Network on the home screen. That will make your life so much better it's unthinkable.

 

[hasslemoff]

Ive signed up for the EU race, looking forward to it.

 

[oink83]

Great, it's going to be close if we make official. Need everyone plus at least 1 reserve. Let's hope it happens!

 

[WRP001]

Too bad... if my meeting was 30 minutes later or the race 30 minutes earlier I could have run the EU time slot. I am confirmed for NA now though.

 

[oink83]

Was hoping to stream this, but having some difficulties for some reason. Going to have to work on it, maybe next time. Also, I'll be jumping in the lounge very shortly, if someone else isn't already in, I'll edit this when the lounge is set.

 

[Revoy]

Don't forget to add me now.

 

[gtpcaine]

anyone know if the lounge is ok to setup? Mic disabled etc

 

[oink83]

Ok, lounge is open now. Mic's are on as well, we are in the Main Lounge.

Don't forget to add me now.

Your Request should be handled any minute.

 

[Revoy]

Which lounge?

Edit: nevermind, found it.

 

[gtpcaine]

Btw formation lap speed still hasn't been clarified

Btw formation lap speed still hasn't been clarified

100 kph / 62 mph... it really shouldn't change week to week unless there is a special circumstance so not sure why it was TBD to begin with.

Which lounge?

You've been added. Main lounge: GTP_3D3Racing.

Since you were just added you might need to quit/sign out of PSN and back if you don't see the lounge in community.

That's my fault, lol. Sorry

If you wish... send a FR to the main lounge. any reason you don't want to race? no practice?

Sweetness. No practice unfortunately....I'm confirmed for the NA race though so between now and then should give me time for some solid work.

You 100% sure you don't wanna just join in? It's lots more practice if you do! And we currently only sit at 5 so not going to be an official race

 

[WRP001]

Jared's racing and there are 6. I'm directing before I have to leave... Quali is underway.

 

[oink83]

Good racing everyone. Thanks Jared for deciding to race, so we had an official race.

Results are as follows:

Congrats on Paul (Hasslemof) for the win, and the best lap. Was a well fought battle throughout at the front there! Some great battling 👍

Not to mention an all British podium!!!

 

[OZ]

Sorry guys, I have to cancel tonight. My brothers truck broke down, so I am on my way to drop the fuel tank and install a new fuel pump. Have a great race, good luck everyone.

Haha like I said...practice is very much needed

 

[PASM]

I'm sorry guys I forgot to cancel.

 

[gtpcaine]

Congrats to both Paul's -- what a thrilling race! Still can't believe I threw away my chances of winning been a bad week for me here

Anyway here are some snaps:

Turn 1, not too messy

The end of lap 1, Paul just edges infront

Role reversal... Paul still infront, at the line anyway

2 wide through the Parabolica -- great fun!

The gap to Paul on pit entry

the gap on exit, and the other Paul honing in

Paul's view of me + Paul exiting pits

Was tempted to send it up the inside

The Setup:

The Execution:

The Result:

And the costly mistake with 3 to go

All in all a brilliant race, was the best battle ive had, just really gutted to have lead about 75% of the race only to come 3rd Great win Paul, and great recovery to 2nd after a few mishaps Paul. The scary thing is my surname is Poole, pronounced the same so technically 3 Paul's and 3 Brits on the podium!

 

[oink83]

lol Tim, great pictures too. Like you said, was all in all a very exciting race. A non-stop 3 way battle from start to finish!

 

[Jared93]

Anybody up for a practice room?

 

[Gravitron]

Some things have come up at work and I may not make it tonight.

 

[oink83]

Aw that is a shame. Make those things go back down!! haha

 

[Gravitron]

Leaving. Might make it.

 

[oink83]

The room is set up. It's in the Main Lounge, feel free to jump in for some pre-race warm-up.

I'm AFK for a little bit, will be back shortly.

 

[Allibubba99]
