I think I was tapped on that one curve..Darn I would have won the thing! Good good racing you guys. I love it.
 
Other than the first race on HSR where I got slaughtered by one of the Fords twice, I think we had a pretty good three races again. I'm also looking forward to seeing some of you in the 600pp races.
 
Yeah for those I have yet to tune. So won't be in there with you guys. Last race.. Good night and good racing
 
I'm lovin' the Expert 500pp races. My Citroen is eating them up.

I do miss 600pp Fuji F though. Would be nice to get that back with Pro physics.




;)
 
wow if it wasnt for the lapped guy coming out on me in turn 1 i probably could have lead the whole time that last race:)

I then inherited the lead just to have my throttle stick wide open AGAIN a few corners later. Then toward the end the lapper decides to rejoin a couple of seconds in front of me, throws my rythm off and around I go. I have the video of it and a couple of other races, will upload them, but this camera is eating up batteries, I won't be able to record much longer if any more
 
yea diefianly upload that race. thats gotta be my best race of the night. lovin that im now able to race online with the F1 all the hours of using it in the time trails trying to get the fastest lap is finaly paying off.

NOOOOO!!!!!!!! :crazy:


oh well back to racing now :sly:

That's odd. So far in every race I've been in where another car was being lapped, the lapped car is automatically flashing, thus can't hit anyone. I actually thought that was a nice feature, so really slow drivers can't effect the cars lapping them... just like how if someone decides to be a jerk and race the opposite way, the game automatically makes their car flash, so they to can't hit any of the other cars. 👍
 
Just had some great races on Expert 500pp Suzuka, and 600pp Suzuka. GTP_Franz was a good clean driver. Enjoyed the race I had with him. GTP_JncRp? I think it was..... He was racing a little yellow Renault, and was also racing very clean, and even slowed down to wait when he caused me to go off a bit from a bump (that was obviously unintentional anyway). Great form! I look forward to racing him in the future. Last but not least was kimchimonkey who was having some problems out there, but all in all raced clean and didn't bump (intentionally). Good clean races all around tonight.

Anyone else here having as much fun as I am with the 500pp and 600pp Pro physics races?




;)
 
Well, don't expect me around for a little while. It's bad enough that Daytona Road is lacking on the online events, but now my PS3 Blu-Ray drive has failed, so I can't load any PS3 games.

:nervous: That sucks! Too bad you didn't get the download version of GT5P, although I guess either way you'd have to send your system in for repair. Hope to see you back soon!
 
The only GTP member I saw was GTP_JncRp in a white Audi R8. If you are on here, what happened at the Hairpin? 1st lap, you were leading, I was gaining. When you went into the hairpin, it looked like someone hit you, but there was no one there. Did you just lose it? Just looked weird from my vantage point.

Anyone run into, or should I say, get ran into, by BigElise in the Ford GT? After he punted me twice, I had enough.

Oh, and I have to apologize to Mines Skyline driver. Can't remember the tag, but I tapped him going through the spoon, and sent him off. I pulled over and took last place for it though. Was my first race with the new, higher settings.

Bummed I missed the rest of you guys.
 
Hi guys, I raced afew 500 pp races last night also,with GTP_Esoterik. I'm still trying to find the right gearing setup in my Focus.I tried not to bump anyone, so sorry if I did.If I do not have to work too late tonight I will be back for more. Look forward to seeing you on the track.
 
It was very quiet last night. Great race with some GTP members like GTP_Esoterik at Suzuka pp500. It was fun to see someone in a Citroen. There was a person who drives a small Alfa 147, he was fast .... can't remember who :P

I think I have bump some people as well, but I am not so sure because they seem to become transparent before I get too close, so I slow down for their recovery. It's not about winning, but it's all about fun battle.

I don't seem getting used to Professional mode. I have a very well tuned WRX for both Suzuka and HSR, and I can finish top-3 spots easily in pp600 intermediate level, standard mode of cause. Now switching to Professional mode. Man I can't drive at all even it is 4WD. I have to drive some FF cars to learn the new physics. I need a HDCP LCD so bad, so that I can set up my wheel on the desk. My coffee table is too thick for the clamps :(
 
Good clean racing Franz. 👍

I had a blast, although I was still getting used to my new Citroen. Great car to use, if you want to stick out a bit from the crowd, and it accelerates pretty fast if tuned right.

I'll be out at Suzuka (and HSR) 500pp and 600pp in about a half hour if anyone wants a good race.

Who is GTP_JncRp? He was fun to race with. Last I saw he was racing a little Yellow Renault.



;)
 
Hey :)

Good racing last night Earth, that was my 1st time online with the F1, aswell as my Wheel. my first race was horrible, but after that i got the hang of it the 2 races after that, thanks for waiting the 1st race.
We had some good racing in the F1 i'd have to say. :D
 
No London races at all? 💡

^ Your 512BB is so fast on straight 👍 it must be real hard to control

I have to take it easy on the throttle for sure. Coming out of the tight hairpin I need to work on my throttle control so I can get a better exit. I'll bring out my TVR Speed Six and my Alfa 147 tonight. Might leave the Black Boxer of Death in the garage for a spell. I seem to be crushing everyone with it (unless I make stupid mistakes:crazy:).

Dirty Racer Update:

Apollo87 [US] - Aggressive Blocking/Bumping
pcpgt14 [US] - Sideswiping, Bumping, Aggressive Blocking

Heading back out to the 500pp and 600pp races. Probably be on HSR first, then head over to the 500pp/600pp Suzuka races.

See you guys out there!




;)
 
On suzuka 750 right now if anyone fancies a run out

Edit:

Hmm. a few hotheads on there at the moment. one went all out to get me for hitting him as he drove back on the track right in front of me. :rolleyes:

I remember one race at the fast left hander before the chicane. I was braking at my usual spot, and I think I had bump on you by accident (not too sure). I was like "crap! I forget you have to brake earlier than my WRX", so I kinda dodged to the grass and I received a penalty, but the worst thing was the forced slow-down made my car spinning out big time. :guilty:
 
Has anyone found 500PP races to be more exciting than 750PP? Oh boy I do! It is so much more challenging to achieve the correct balance. You have so much more time to plan how you want to setup the next turn. I won 2 of 3 races tonight there. I would have won the 2nd race, had the leader NOT HAVE slamed me into the wall 100 yards before the finish line. I guess he wanted to win more than I did. I look forward to racing you guys..Oh big time.. lol See you out there tomorrow.
 
OK, I have returned. Had some wild races with some GTPers at Suzuka 750PP.

My disc read errors seem to be associated with GTA IV, so I've been told by a Sony service tech to just not play GTA IV, and attempt to continue playing other games to see if the system locks up anymore. So, been playing GT5P all day, and no problems.

it is much more fun, and more skill based rather than relying on brute power. i had a go earlier with two gtp members. it was awesome. there's almost no room for error or you get left behind, and i found less punters go to those races.
 
Man a strange day of racing for sure, the hosts quitting was bad, I kept getting booted out of the races, punters was about normal but 1 guy made me feel like a pin ball!
The aptly named Ram1999 in a tuned viper kept ramming me & that would send me flying into the people around me.
I caused a huge cluster on the long sweeping left hander right after the esses at Suzuka when my pedals came unplugged when I was in a pack of cars!
So anyone I nailed by being punted or shutting down in the fast corner...sorry!

But I made enough credits to finish buying all the cars, all I have left is 3 more F2007's so I have both numbers in both colors.
