Not since the 2016 GTPES Bathurst 12 Hour cancellation have I been more disappointed after(?) a race. That was an event where I spent roughly $450 flying up to @MINT_GTR’s home in Brisbane to contest the race against the best in the world in a boat like GT-R. However such was the extent of the server issues that the whole event was thrown into disarray and the event was cancelled, and never resumed despite a second attempt about a month later. A worldwide event curtailed due to issues beyond anyone’s control. A major catastrophe for online racing on Gran Turismo and overall a complete embarrassment.
Last night hurts a lot, to not be able to race in an event you’ve put so much aside for is gut wrenching beyond belief. I’m glad though it seems everyone enjoyed it and had a good race. What happened after I left Room 1 was out of my control (not that anything was in control in the first place), all I’ll say is well done
@StigsTC and
@Toranafan-02 on their wins respectively.
I’ve had numerous messages asking if there is going to be a second one of these, mostly from the haemorraged first room, and I’m happy to set up a re run for next Saturday (one room capped at 16) with revised rules and settings. If the demand is there we’ll do it. I don’t have time to go through details atm (Father’s Day formalities) but I’ll have a thread opened later on. Only details I’ll divulge now is everyone is allowed to select a new car, but if someone wants to go again in their original car, they’ll keep it. So I suggest preferencing 3 cars, just don’t for the love of god pick an LM Nismo. The event is capped at 16 as I said and you’ll lose original choice privilege if you are not one of the first 16. Don’t post here, I’ll have a thread open later today.
Cheers guys and thanks again
