JGTC S1 Pre-Season

Goddamnit. I was running laps all day, trying to reach my goal, so I finally beat it by .2 seconds, and what happens? The bloddy replay doesn't save properly. Instead of my hotlap, I get about 30 seconds of a warmup lap.

:banghead:

I pray to god I can replicate that lap again, and get a proper replay saved.

It appears the deadline was extended to Friday 11:59PM (EST). So, I guess we've all got a bit more time to play around with the warmup.

*EDIT* I think I might be seeing things. The first post now says Thursday, just like before. Either way, you've still got a bit over 24h to submit, so there's no real rush.

No, I dont think you were seeing things, it does say the deadline is Friday, but its Friday the 17th at 3:59am - GMT , not EST.

So, technically ,you were right.:dopey:
 
ok someone correct me if im wrong..but the car we use..r we gonna get it for the whole season?
 
Yeah, it's Small_Fryz who asked me to put the GMT in the deadline. It's really important to be careful when reading guys and not jump to conclusions too fast. :sly:

One thing I can tell you guys (and girls :p) is that it's really really close between the drivers for both classes. I'm done with this challenge, did a couple more laps and time looks solid. I need to go buy a Max Drive or something because I really want to up my qualification laps for this series. Hope the rest of you will send your times in during the day.

Pre-season challenge = same car for everyone so all are even to really showcase the skills

Season = you pick the car you want to drive following my indications, when time will come
 
Just to clarify, the deadline IS Thursday,the 16th at 11:59 PM EST,right?

just wanted to make sure,because everyone seems to be posting already,not that i miss out on this.

I want to give it the best shot here,so Im taking all the time I can.

yes, Thursday 16th @ 11:59PM EST = Friday 17th @ 3:59AM GMT

This leaves a little less than 24 hours before deadline :)

k thanks
 
I can't find this info anywhere but do us "backup's" need to submit qualifiers? I've already test-ran the GT300, and still pushing for a good time for the 500. :confused:

Oh well, even if I don't need to, it was a blast driving these cars! :D

Yeah you're right nowhere I talked about the backup guys. For now you are not required to send a time but for sure if you want to know where you stack up in the pack you can send your times in. 👍

Looking good guys looking good, can't believe some of the stuff happening but looking good. :sly:

You're going to have to elaborate on that when the deadline is up :sly:

I think my submitted time sucked compared to a few, but eh, I'm happy. :dopey:

The important is if you had fun doing the runs, if so then who gives a flying fawk about the results! If you think you didn't do well this time we have 8 qualif and 8 full races to go to improve on. ;)
 
Time submitted. I could have shaved off another .2-.3 seconds if I hadn't ran a bit wide coming out of two turns, but I reached my target time, so I'm satisfied.

I just took the time to read the big MaxDrive and saves thread and what they sell you is just a plain standard USB stick? But what you only need is the MaxDrive software to make it work if you already have a generic USB stick right? So you get a 16mb USB stick (worth close to nothing) and pretty much all you pay for his a damm software!!! Is it on cd or dvd? Sounds like a ripoff or something. :lol: :lol:
 
Well you get two discs - PC software and PS2 software - but you can get the PC software off their site for free and it's USELESS and unnecessary anyway :p

The PS2 software, aside from being featureless and extremely weak ... and buggy ... is on a little mini-cd (I guess) ... whatever the PS2 reads natively. This means that I can't just copy my disc and send it over to you so you can use a thumbdrive ... shame that.

But yes, the maxdrive is essentially just a damned USB stick. I bought one after I got myself a 1 gig thumbndrive and then I realized that they are the damned same thing, except the 'MaxDrive' is very expensive on a per/meg basis.

Of course, they wax on about "guaranteed to be compatible with the MaxDrive software", but I've still had problems with certain files not copying (even though the software says that they are), so I personally put little faith in their claims :p

Now, if the software could be copied to a PS2 hardrive and used from there, you'd be laughing, but I have no idea how you'd go about doing that or even if you own one.

So in the meantime you're pretty much stuck with buying a 16meg MaxDrive (that is more than enough). :(
 
Replays are just 30kb each so space wise, yes ... but you still need the software to get the replay on and off the PS2.

sounds like a logical step don't you think :D :lol:

LOL, but i was thinking since the beggining that you would store the laps and just put each driver on a team, just like WRS, that the qualify times aren´t showed. :)
 
Zero, you are missing your Sector time in your PM. I'm trying to reach you but I can't because even if I forward your own massage back to you it's sending it back to the other GTP member zero. If anyone can reach him and help let him know!
