I have one will send it later! Shouldn't take too many attempts think there's only 10 cars at level 19.

Thanks so much! I'm just now going to bed so I might not be able to accept your FR till later :/ (Yes it is 6 am here, I got a bit swept up in testing for another series :p)
 
I really got to be testing for this, gonna sign up for a team tomorrow when I finish testing.
 
Ack forgot about prize cars I will get on GTP asap and do the 4 hour Nords and get the R8 LMS. Then let bobs drive the X1 in dream car for the pricey GT by Citroen race car :). Then im only missing the Viper.

For now im going to have a quick go in the LMPs.
 
I'm considering doing the nuburging 4hr race just to get the Audi. It looks like a good car.
 
Hm, well think carefully about that one. We're having to work really hard to get it up to par with the other LMPs. It takes an advanced hand to get results from it, puts the "dog" in underdog. But I like it so that's the car I'm going with. Having a wheel is recommended for the R10.

DS3 users should opt for either the 908 (ideally) or TS020 (GT-ONE)

I meant the R8, the GTE car.

That'll be me 👍. Might have to change my name to save confusion.

Wow, gotta look into that fact you pulled about the difference in PP between the Vipers. Sure one of them didn't have a zero miles?

But nice Seth, glad you like the feel of the cars. We're gonna take 30kgs off the TS020 and we're taking all 50kg of ballast off the R10 as well as putting it's power at 522. This was after Tony1311 did some great testing for us. With that, all the cars should be able to hit right around 1:54 at Suzuka. We tested Suzuka 'cause of it's ability to consume tires. I did 6 laps with each LMP and they all had virtually the same wear rates. By lap 6 rear tires were all at around 50% (used Watson's pixel counting technique) and the fronts were around 70%.

Surprised to find that weight was hardly a factor at all in tire wear rates.

The Peugeot's becoming a pain to keep even and play nice with it's two friends. I don't want to do anything to it now, but if it comes down to it, it'll get a power decrease.

Hey man, glad to see you posting, I'll ask around if anyone has one of those available but I'm sure you'll find one.

Cheers.

The vipers are indeed different. The 91 is faster. Drop that 51. It ain't worth the hassle. ;)

Drove this car for three seasons in GTPFIA



I need a team mate. Want to drive LMP

Someone committed is all I ask.
 
Is there a list of what teams other drivers have picked so far?
 
How do you get to that ? I was searching for a good 10 minutes :dunce:

Edit found it :p, it's at the bottom of my profile page

Also joined minion in the corvette 👍, wish I had a stealth GT-R but :D

Eurgh, been grinding all day to refresh the UCD and still no luck with finding a Playstation R8! Does anybody know the chance of getting one? I also think you can win it by doing the 24hr Le Mans on A-Spec but it doesn't interest me with the retarded AI.
 
I've not heard anything from you regarding my registration Eddie, I'm quite disappointed :P. But I might have hit a snag for right now anyway (albeit there is time to resolve it).

I downloaded GT Academy, come back to find my PS3 frozen. So I had to restart it (think it was a plug out scenario) & now I'm at the point after it saying the hd was corrupt that it does this.

Can get it to load to XMB menu, but the game, music, photos part doesn't load fully (just appears empty - no defaults there or anything). Plus if I click on some of the options it crashes again.

I'm guessing I have to go into safe mode & start all over again (got a feeling my save is already gone anyway?). This will be the second time I've had to start again & I've got to admit I'd really rather not unless I have to obviously!

Was Eddie supposed to meet and greet us with cookies after we register? If so I'm pissed at being excluded and want a refund. :lol: Or at least I want what's due to me... a nice hot chocolate chip cookie like they used to hand out at DoubleTree when you checked in. :drool:
 
I just had a whole box of wine gums so I'm glad there are no cookies involved :yuck:
 
So the GTOne is now at 1050kgs? same hp?
Yes sir.

Yeah sorry about that my man, don't know how I missed the proper guide along. Hope your PS3 issue can be sorted soon enough, I'd hate for you to have to miss the first round but this is a looong series so there's plenty of time to join up for the future races as well 👍

I'm sending cookies to every one through the post as compensation, sealed envelopes, just throw them in the microwave for a couple seconds and it'll be like they were just made.
 
Just registered guys 👍
I prefer Mrs. Fields if they are available. It's why I signed up :lol:
That and the wrap-up party. Wardez throws wicked parties II(could)RC.
 
Man, I'm sending you a double chocolate stuffed fudge special, the post office has new gooey problems on their hands, consequences will never be the same.

xD but really, thanks, psyched to have you ab'ard!
 
Lmao, look what I've started now.

Does anyone have any ideas to rescue my PS3 without having to start again though? Got to admit I bought it for the fact it's a console (my PS2 never crashed) so should be reliable, the blu-ray & the fact it's got GT5. So far it's been less reliable than my expectations that's for sure!

Mmmmmmmm..anxiously awaiting the delivery 👍
Great to be in the series, but I'm torn between cars. Did you have to choose so many of my favs?
It's the BMW that really has me ready to bail on the LMP class. Love that car :)

Send me a PM and I'll see if I can help out.
 
I just switched from the Viper to the GT-R. I did this primarily because I have the slower #51 Viper and I don't feel like hunting for the other one. Also the Nissan was in need of some love, and I've already got plenty of experience with the car from JGTS 👍
