WRS Online Events

On January 15th, WRS Online will continue to support the online racing platform of GT6, hosting our fourth “Unofficial” online race event.  We’ll go back to another old favorite from GT5, with “The Legacy (really?) V2.0“.  The races are open to anyone participating in the GTP_Registry GT6 Qualifier (And those who are on the GT5 Registry).

The race features a legendary favorite, the Subaru Impreza WRX STI ’10, on one of the most loved original circuits on the GT Series, Deep Forest Raceway.  The races will continue to be modified from our normal, hour long format, and will feature a 10 minute timed group qualification session, followed by several 18 Lap Races.

Interested in running?  Be sure and visit the race thread and follow the instructions to register for the event in your time zone!  We feature 2 convenient time slots, one of these should work for most members in most regions –

  • 3:00 PM Eastern / 12:00 PM Pacific / 20:00 GMT
  • 10:00 PM Eastern / 7:00 PM Pacific / 3:00 AM GMT

GTPlanet’s WRS Registry Qualifier

WRSers have been busy shaving tenths off their qualifier laps for over 3 weeks now.  That will all come to an end tomorrow, January 13th at 11:59 pm GMT, the deadline for initial submission into the GTP_Registry.  Don’t forget to give it your best effort, and submit a time before the deadline!

Soon after the deadline, the registry will begin hosting official events, including weekly Time Trials, Weekly Online Races, and Online “Special Event” races.  Be sure and keep an eye on the WRS TT Forum, and subscribe to the Online Announcements thread, for the latest news on our events.

What’s Next?

If you’re interested in joining the GTP_Registry to take advantage of the events we are offering, here’s what to do:

  • Run the GTP WRS Qualifier. After the qualifier deadline on January 13th, Divisional placement will be required to participate in our events.
  • Have questions? Anything related to the qualifier can be discussed in this thread.
  • Again, anyone who is taking part in the qualifier and intends to join the registry may participate in our unofficial online events!
