I couldn't believe i got 2nd tbh. My setup was built for qualifying so i wasn't too confident in fighting for position as the car is very twitchy but fast. Had to let a few opponents through but my pace was good and tyres were good so i came 2nd in the end.

I can't right now, but hopefully later on tonight.

Can't forget that the GT-R's are OP in a straight line ;)

Hi there guys, is there room free? I'd like to join your tournament

psn id: gprili

can you let me know soon the free cars available?
I see in the drivers list that there are not:

Toyota Castrol Tom’s Supra ‘97
Toyota Yellowhat YMS Supra ‘05

and there are double
Lexus Petronas Tom’s SC430 ‘08
Lexus Denso Dunlop SARD SC430 ‘08

so the
Lexus ENEOS SC430 ‘08
Lexus Bandai Direzza SC430 ‘06
are free to choose or not?
 
All cars are available, except for the Yellowhat GT-R. We changed the rules to allow 2 of each car now (with the exception of the Yellowhat GT-R, in which there are 3).
 
Thanks for the info Arkano5...

I wouldn't use that car, I'm going to be running tests with it today and the rest of this week to see if it requires any ballast (I've been told it does), although it's up to you :p

Yeah you need to add me to PSN (Arkano6) and it's Le Sarthe 2009 with change time :)
 
no prob if the car need some ballast I will comply to it... It's just that I'm used to drive it already and I've a good setup (I think... :nervous:)

Haha no problem, welcome to the league though :)

As long as you turn up to the next 9 races, you'll get maximum points as well.
 
Hi Guys,

Was wondering if I could join your league? I'm a long time browser of the forum but my first time posting... I been playing about with the online racing a bit more recently and want to get into my first organised GT5 league.

My psn id = pjgreg
 
I just checked and I will miss for sure the race at Nurb May 21st 'cause of a work trip that weekend. Sorry for that. I will be in for all the others but can I still participate?

No engine stage 3, no turbos.

Chassis rigidity, engine overhauls & oil changes are allowed.

I'm hosting a practice session now, if you're interested :)

thanks.. not now I'm still working :grumpy:
 
Well, I've found pretty much the perfect set-up for this weekend already.

Although I've got some work to do to beat Wajdi! My best so far is a 3:47.6xx

Thoroughly looking forward to this weekend, should be a good race. Hoping we get 12+ people this week, no excuse why we shouldn't.

Sorry to repost my previous post but I think it got a bit lost with it having to be approved (first post).. If there is still space available for this league could I be assigned the "Xanavi Nismo GT-R '08 " I don't think anyone has it already.

Wow, I completely missed your first post, apologies from me :)

You're welcome to take the Nismo GT-R, only GP-CiaN has that so far, that now now fills the two driver slots for that car.

Please just make sure you can race cleanly, avoiding other people, driving with packs in other people during a race, ect. We've had one or two people (who aren't here anymore, thankfully) in the pre-season races who just don't know how to drive with other people around them.

If you can't make Le Sarthe, I don't mind as much :sly:

I reckon I can get my time down to a 3:46...Got all week to practice!
 
Thanks.. I think will it being my first post on the forum it took about 6 hours to post. Then it got a bit lost further up the thread.

This is one of the main reasons why I wanted to get back into some proper organized races to compete against people that are actually here to race. I use to play quite a few organized events in Forza before GT5 came out. But up until now I have been avoiding online games because my pedals have been broken (lost top 5% accelerator travel) so I was just not very competitive. New pedals came last week so I'm ready to race.... :) don't get me wrong I'm not that great but I like to think I'm always considerate of the other people around me racing.

Just what I wanted to hear, look forward to seeing you at this weekends race ;) Make sure you add me (Arkano6) on PSN, I'm usually hosting practice sessions randomly throughout the day, most days of the week, it's a good chance to get used to racing with some of the guys in the championship.
 
I've sent the request to add you Arkano6

I tried today 12 laps on La Sarthe in my private lobby room quality High and chat Low
I managed to do 3.46:358 after 10 laps
 
edit wrong pics....
