    The Live events will be the easiest way to qualify I think.

    Also get fit, because our competition will involve a mini race camp in oz before the winner goes to silverstone.

    I think we could at least get 3 or 4 of us guys to make it, warrior is definitely a shoe in though lol.

    Unfortunate for Zamps and N64 they are still 17, however I think Australia will be permanent fixture in GT Academy now.

    Here is the top 250 from the GT academy a few years ago.

    How many of these blokes are still around?

    Warrior top 3!
    Koastr sitting nicely in the top 50.

    Joe's mate Waynz also in there.

    Maybe we should try and message these boys to come and join.

    Practising the seasonal time trials is the best practise for gt academy.

    I only do the seasonals where they give you the car now, can never be bothered to do my own lol and like to see in comparison on an even playing field (like our league).

    I used to just borrow peoples cars that had a good time, most of the aliens post there sets on GT Planet anyway.

    Sucks how they removed the car share feature like everything else with this uncomplete game.

    Yea warrior gave us that link when he joined up here and we discussed there's quite a few familiar names in that list. http://raceonoz.com/threads/hello-fellow-racers.351/

    Good luck fellas, hope to see some current ROOZ names make the final ;)
