About tomorrow....

I'll try to be there, but I'll probably only be able to make ALMS again. My friends have miraculously decided they're going to be sociable and we're meeting up tomorrow for a curry, then going back to my friend Lee's to play some Singstar.

Hmmmm, I'm glad I was going by ALMS for this, because I've been pushing for 2:00.XXX all this time and have been hitting the 2:01.1's numerous times in practice. My consistency seems to have improved, although I think tyre wear is still around the 6-7 lap mark for me.
 
I wouldn't put it past the Viper to win. I still have yet to practice my car there, I think this should be a closer race.

Closer even than Nürburgring? :nervous: :scared: :excited:

And, I don't mean "yuck" about Dodge winning, I just mean that its lap times are disgustingly fast, though I've only run like 3 laps and got a 2:02:1...

If its anything like Nurburgring I'll quit and feign DC.

Nnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooo... don't do it! :guilty: :grumpy: At the end of Nürburgring, everyone had made huge mistakes... There was always still a chance for everyone to win.
 
Hi guys, porlar, are you doing!!

Please, I want to change from DP class to GT class, because I prefer compete with a lot of drivers. I know all of you are fast and clean so, I want to know who is the best driver!

Hmmmm, what will James and Shinshiki say/do? If they're okay with also coming/joining GT or more DP guys come, then, I'd be okay with it. Team Ferrari just got a lot stronger in the points?


Also, when is Polar coming online? Tell me, dude!

I'm on my way home!

And Anthony, there is a rule of no changing cars. If it isn't on the first post I'll let you, because you may not have known. If it is on the first post, I won't because it is a rule.
 
ok, no problem, thanks polar!!
Freshseth, I wanted compete with you, because I saw your times at GT ACADEMY and I saw that you are fast, so, maybe the next season!!

Ummm, on that topic, it's not in the OP. I checked for you. I think Ant should still stay in DP, since it seems that there are a lot of DP drivers who might finally come back this week, and the GT points are pretty well finished... I'm not sure if he wants to switch, but, as you said, he can [because] it's not in the OP.

BTW, Anthony, I beat SO many of your times on GT Academy... :P

I didn't download GT Academy. Does that shock anyone?

Free cars, man, free cars! Now, to visit that site and find out how to download them. I want the Nissan Leaf!


Oh, wait, the official site says:
If you clear all 5 events within a round in Gold, you will receive a car that you can use within the ‘Gran Turismo 5’ game. If you clear all rounds in Bronze or better, you’ll also receive a special racing wear set that can be worn by your avatar in “Gran Turismo 5”.The timing for the distribution and how to receive these prizes will be notified at a later date on this page.

Thanks for checking! But it would be better if you waited for next season to switch, because like mr m said, more dp guys are supposed to show up.

Speaking of... I'm going to do those, then get on to practice.
 
MrMelancholy15
Sweet. It should be noted again, though, that GT isn't releasing/gifting the GT Academy cars yet. I checked the site.
Click to expand...

Yea, pretty much everyone knows that by now. I'm getting on!

Yes, you beated me but, I just tried one or two times, I think it have to be a rule that you have "x" times to do the objetive, because, with the actuality rules I think the first is not the best driver, the first is the guy who have more time on the PS3. I have not time, just one hour some times!, for example, I never can practice for the weekend race, I only get in and qualify!!

Any case, I think you are fast too!!
 
My GT Academy times are good? I played it once. Well, I did each round once (same day that is). I may have tried each event 3 times at the most. There's no reason for me to keep trying to get a faster and faster time. I'm not going to be able to do the Academy thing even if I did have the fastest times. I don't even have a wheel, and switching to one is out of the question for now, I don't have money for one. Well, Suzuka is a great track, and it's a long track, so strategy should be played out good there. I think I might have a good one up my sleeve.
 
I'm not really sure how my car is going to go up against the Audi's and vipers. I haven't even touched the 2:02's yet. I'm 99% sure I'm losing half a eternity in the esses, how would I get the 458 to bite at turn in?
 
Don't even worry about setting fast lap times. Do as many laps as you can in qualifying so you can run your fuel down low, then pit fresh softs on there and have at it. In the race, just keeping up will be fine. Doing too much will ruin your tires because this track doesn't have run-off.
