It's really stable and, at 3000 lbs, planted with a basic tune on it. Yes, we have to still be a bit careful with the throttle, on the exits. Don't forget, traction control is not necessary in GT, so practice without it, if you used to it.

Ya know what......I had problems on the gears......I couldn't match the numbers because the gear slider wouldn't go that far.....on every gear and the final gear.

The car tunes up relatively easily, making it it stable and easy to handle, but you still need to respect the throttle.

Come for the free beer, stay for the great racing.

Adjust the top auto gear set number first, then the rest of the numbers should fall in line.
 
Yeah, preferably slow drivers that just bought the game 2 days ago. 😇
Everyone is welcome. The more, the merrier. If anyone is just getting into Sport now, MNR is the perfect group to get acquainted with on-line racing. The main thing is to race with us and get up to speed.

I know.....I was joking.

Look at the power curves. Fuel will be an issue at all locations. There is just enough gear in my tune on Tokyo when not in a draft. Will you be in a draft?

Come for the free wine and cheese, stay for the great racing.
 
Another great night of racing with nearly filling the lobby again, at the start. Below is a replay of the second race at Brands Hatch, two weeks ago.

Each week, hundreds, and I do mean hundreds of GT Planet readers view this thread. I have one question for you viewers. Why are you not racing with us?

If you have any questions, press on your accelerator and ask away.
 
Obviously, that is an important reason regarding Monday evenings. Are you interested in joining us Wednesdays? Starting in November, we will have an afternoon start again, at 3PM Eastern.
Timing. I wake up at 4 to get to work, so staying up past 8 is truly difficult.
 
What a great, little fun car! Kept us going for 4.5 hours and we probably could have gone longer.

My work schedule is just too tight right now, and I have almost an hour commute, so I'm not sure I can do much. Thanks, though. I'll see what I can do!
 
Thanks, TRLWNC7396.

I am still curious about other hundreds of readers of this thread, though. This is fun racing, a safe environment, good cars, so why are you not racing with us?
