I realize that you probably want the GTP Insider to deal with GT, but you should list the winners of the other competitions on this site if you are going to list the winners of the WRS.
 
I, like others, would argue that the WRS is a very long standing competition based spacifically on the Gran Turismo games. And since this is Gran Turismo Planet Insider we're talking about, I wouldn't count on much else getting in there. I assume an occationally really big GT3-4 online competition would get listed. Don't expect much else.

Is the insider still new?

On the GT4 issue in the 5th or 6th paragraph, you spelt licences wrong a few times.

After you’ve set up your cash, you’ve got three choices. One, spend over an hour searching through 700+ cars for an affordable yet reliable machine. Two, test out Photo Mode. Or Three, get your liscences. This time, if you just complete the 16 tests (per liscence),

I don't think your correct either. The correct spelling of it in its singular form is license. The correct spelling of the plural word is licenses.

This paragraph should be in italics ;)

_During the Event no driver may use more than four sets of dry-weather tyres, four sets of wet weather tyres and three sets of extreme-weather tyres. Unless the use of wet or extreme-weather tyres is necessary an unused set of dry-weather tyres must be used for both of the qualifying sessions, all reconnaissance laps and the entire race. Unless a precautionary tyre change is necessary for clear and genuine safety reasons, only a punctured or damaged tyre may be changed during a race. No refuelling will be permitted whilst a car is in the pits for the purposes of changing a tyre.

I've always spelt it licence, only to find out I was wrong. :guilty:

You aren't. Technically.

"Licence" is correct - in English. It's also correct in US English, but "license" is more common there.
 
It's confusing in Australia. In school, we are told to follow the English way of spelling. I just went and checked my Learner Driver's Log Book, and all through there it's spelt "license".

It's the same with defence/defense. Australia aren't very clear on these things.

EDIT: Sorry for going off-topic.

License is the correct spelling of the singular word, license, as in Drivers License. Licenses is the correct spelling of the plural word, as in Drivers Licenses. Here in the US we spell Defense. Defence, if you look it up in a dictionary, is a British variant of defense, so you might spell it defence in Australia because you are using British variants of US - English words.
 
That'll be "defense" is a US English variant of the English "defence"...
 
The licence/license one is a very subtle change... in britain we use the two to mean (slightly) different things... however the US version of english is somewhat lazy and evolved by erradicating these subtle nuances of the english language so as to make sure that people always get the spelling correct.

after much brainstorming i would like to introduce my new website : 'planet gran turismo.net'. (pgt) will be launching soon. it will include a lively bulletin board with sections on motor sport, computing, playstation, xbox, and detailed guides on gt1 thru gt4. an exhuastive images gallery, as well as a online store selling exclusive pgt merchandise. (...)and look out for our soon to be released web based fanzine: inside pgt.
hmmm... rather impressive eh? huh? *whisper* *whisper* excuse me. it would appear that this has already been done. rather impresively already.

only smoking with yah! give a guy a chance eh? for a long time now, i have been thinking of creating some form of gran turismo fan site, but every time i think of something, gtp has got one! its great that your exploring all ideas, but you dont give the rest of us a chance! come on, give the small guy a break.
 
It seems to have been quite a while since the last issue of GTP Insider. When is the next issue due?
 
Around the beginning of next week. :) (The writers' drafts are due this weekend.)
 
And with that, Issue 7 is out. :) Sorry it's low on articles – we had one editor who was moving, and one who lost his Internet connection, so it's safe to say a few wrenches were thrown in the plans. However, I think they're 3 quality articles (well, ALPHA's and M5Power's, anyway ;)), so it should be worth it.
 
Naughty me, I've just done a little bit of live editing to update my article a tinsy bit, I sure hope I haven't broken anything!
