Has anyone tried doing the remote races using an iPod touch yet? Is it possible? I gotta run some errands this morning and one place I'll be for a while has WiFi. Hoping to bring my iPod touch to keep busy whilst there.
Was just checking it out quickly last night and it seemed to me your friends have to share drivers to race against. I'm not sure if there is a way to just get your bob to run against regular A.I. opponents.
It uses some archaic JavaScript technique to get the drivers list from the opening window eg, gt home. Really stupid.
I find the whole web based stuff extremely clunky. It really needs a decent web dev to improve it! It's slooooow, perhaps they are trying to emulate the slowness of the ps3 gt5 menus.
The race screen is all data lists. Bleh. Some poor turkey had to do that CSS. Use tables for tabulated data dammit. </rant>
Can you do B-Spec while away from your PS3 but it can be off, without an Internet Connection (like Bluetooth for example) or should it be in something like wait mode??

First off, what's wait mode? Second, I don't understand why this mode requires your playstation to have internet access. They could have made a mode that accesses your account from the computer, updates it, and then adds your winnings/xp/etc. to your account the next time you turn on the game. It would have put less wear and tear on the system. And I have an older refurbished model so I don't know if I trust it on that long without me home.
When you put the PS3 in server standby mode, in order to run the remote races via a PC does the PS3 go in standby mode?
Can you still do A-Spec races or any other things within the game?

Nope. The game puts up a screensaver while in standy mode and then shows the remote race once one starts. If you quit the standby mode, you can't run any remote races.
