Just out of curiousity, if I start my run at 1 AM EST on Sunday does that mean I get 150 minutes to do it? :lol:
 
Why would that matter, Chad always beat you and he still can so what's the big deal with having another guy on the track he could smoke? :lol:

*Now where did I leave that popcorn and soda?*

shhhhhhhhhh! don't say stuff like that out loud. i was trying to use reverse psychology, now u done went and screwed up the plan 👎
 
Considering my intellectual level, such childish remarks will not make me change my mind. Anyways it doesn't really matter.

I broke up with her anyways.
 
^legend

i'd like to voice my opinion about the new format.

I dislike it, my online time is going to be faster than the one i just submitted. 90 minutes is way too long for a racing style format and then there is the un-limited pracatise so there is no point having the time limit. Don't want to start an arguement, just my opinion. i hope it changes back so i can just run hot laps when eva i want

This format is very interesting.
In this 90 minutes you have to run your best time, be sure it's not dirty, run to your computer to submit before the end of the session...
So, if you drive 89 min straight you take the risk to be disqualified. Imagine, you run a good time, but in a another lap you're quicker but dirty = you lost your first good time...
You need some kind of strategy to get the better time at this moment (simple one but still).
And it adds a litlle bit of pressure !:nervous:

For me the only problem is, with this format, I'm not sure I will be able to make it and have this 90 minutes free = without children (3) and wife :). It's a little bit more complicated to insert it in my agenda...

By the way, good combo. I never realised it was so hard to avoid the invisible walls at the HSR :sly:

And great time Dan !

Sorry to hear that Chad. What a pain... (time to change your picture in your profile ??)

Whatever happens mate, It's good to do what you want, If you feel like playing Gran Turismo, do it, don't let anybody or anything get in the way of your passions:tup:

Sorry to hear :(

Don't let that keep you from doin you brah, just keep ya head up. 👍

oh and why did you have to go and use such big words like intellectual? *hunts for dictionary*
 
Managed a 1'15.400 and 1'15.371 tonight - not sure there is much left out there, well, I know there is, I just can't trim it out. :)

Amazing lap Dan!
 
Oh 🤬 .. why did you have to change the direction of the lap?
Atleast 5 drivers have been going the wrong direction at some point.

I've been practising the reverse track offline for the last 5 days,
reaching the fasteast of 1'15.40x :nervous:

This is a setback...

Sorry Max but if you had followed the thread daily you would have known this on the 25th. Check this.

Sorry, I didn't really change it, Forward was always the intended direction. I made a mistake when first posting it up (there was conflicting information) and corrected it within a few hours.
 
I've just submitted my time, the trouble is it was loads slower than my practise times, I guess I was trying too hard :grumpy:

I was scared of this also, to have faster practise times then submission time. So I only did like 15-20 lap practice run and jumped straight to the real deal, also because I have very limited time to race during the week :indiff:

My submission lap was indeed my fastest although it was akwardly slow :ill:
 
I'm disappointingly slow at HSR, just not my favorite track.

My practice lap is - 1:16.206.
 
:(, My sixaxis ran out off battery going to sleep in 30min. Tomorrow going back to school and won't be able to play. DAMN!
 
I had a few laps today, and I realised that just a few hours into GT5P is not really enough to be keeping up with people in this weex race.

I need a holiday just to learn how to turn these cars around the corners.

The short version is, I sucked at this combo, for about 30 mins, then I went and put Killzone in the PS3 and forgot all about it.

I think I'll have a look at next weex.....

:irked:👍

I feel you man, but I participate for the fun of it :). Of course it'd be fun to get a few competitive laps :)
 
My 90 minutes of non-glory :D have just passed and frankly that was my only possible session for the whole week. So nothing to report for the leaderboard from my side. Good luck all in the final hours of the combo, and see you on Suzuka online in the 512 hell horsepowers :)
 
I won't say when, but I have submitted for this week and am moving on to next week.

By the way, what's with all the new avatars with letters from your name? I'm seeing this alot and clearly have missed out on something.

Same here, submitted my time somewhere last week with no practice before the 90 min session. Didn't know if I would have had the time to do it later in the week.
