GT5 ROOZ CELEBRATORY 2nd bday, 10th season Event

But then I wouldn't see the point in joining up the two divisions that are completely at opposite ends of the scale together.
I'm not trying to sound like a ****, I didn't realise the Div3 room had bad attendance as well (only just saw you had 6 drivers for every race), but a Div1/Div2 room would be more closely matched, especially with the top-end Div2 drivers. But then you'd still only get 6 drivers as well.....
I just don't see the point in a larger room just for the sake of having more numbers. I know this post might make me sound like a prick but there it is.

edit: or stumbles idea, that sounds like a good compromise without leaving one of the Div1/Div3 rooms with only 5-6 people.

Who knows, in the last week the rooms might explode with attendance lol and everyone in the OP will be there

If we have the same turn out for div 1 this week we may as well just can it, ended up with 3 in the last race which is just sad really.

Hey guys, not rocking up for last race. Really really can not be bothered doing soo many laps of HSR. It's high on my list of unfavoured tracks, along with ovals.

One less for Div 1 anyways O

I would take any merged server but i find it hard to be motivated about doing an enduro with a turnout of 5 being best case sceniaro.

There was a heated debate?? I must have missed it.

+1 for Stumbles idea.

+1 for Stumbles idea too

If we only have 5 and get split up early on, I'll be surprised if we end up with 3 that finish

I missed race 1 cause i didn't see about early start,Cyberstig knows why,but was very happy to notice a "false" pole for race 2,pity race start was set for results previous race, lol. Took start easy,got past cob when he ran wide then settled in the line 4th,no way past,so saved tyres,&when Cyber and Zampli pitted,i pushed and got it from 20secs behind Mus in 2nd to 12,but went one lap to long,lost the rears too much by half way down the hill and ran wide twice after that lap,to follow Mus in to the pits,19secs behind,though my entry must have been good or Mus's too fast cause i dropped and left my stall 8secs after he passed me,and i almost came out in 2nd in front of Cyberstig and cob ,but got held at end pit road badly,must have been nothing in it,Cyber and Cob must have seen me almost coming out,then i didn't as the computer baulked me for Cyber,then Cob,as they were nose to tail,and then it spat me out right in front of Zampli,into a 3 car length gap,who i couldn't fairly hold at bay long enough to get my tyres up to temp,and made a mistake trying,but all in all a good race.Sorry if it seemed like blocking,Zampli,it wasn't. Good Win Mus!You might have noticed i held the gap to you mid race. Race three i was going well in 4th but kicked off the curb into the side of cob entering the last of the Right,Left,R,L,sequence before the straight with the bridge so stayed right,let both he and Zampli past and went again. Fortunately for me they had a big altercation(they know where,LOL),soon after and i was able to pass again and pull away and come up behind behind Cyber and Mus and see a ripping battle,then they pitted,and i kept going.I had a good lead and was pulling away,when somewhere about 1/4 way into lap 2,my TV,which i move to my cockpit which is in my lounge room,turned over for the F1's and when i got it back on the ps3 channel i'd lost 45 secs odd and 2 positions to be in 3rd,I'm sure Mus is still wondering what went on as he quit out soon after i got back racing,Cyber had a laugh at the messages post race when he found out,that put me in 2nd again,but after pitting at end lap 2,i was 28secs behind Cyber and back to 3rd behind Cob,and set out in pursuit and was very happy to close the gap to 14 secs but something happened with Cob,i don't know what i didn't see him,and i was suddenly in 2nd which i hadn't passed him for,so entered the pits to finish,but he still didn't get across line before me,so i guess i'll take the 2nd at +20 secs,but i think i might have had the win in my grasp until the TV changed,I won't make that mistake again! :lol: Good win Cyber,would have liked to see what happened otherwise!

I'm easy whatever happens this week,i'll turn up at Cyber's Room as soon as he opens this week,and race whatever has been decided.

Apologies for the first week,i have played the game a LONG time,i bought the Collectors Edition on release,and know most tricks etc,(DETEST HACKED CARS AND FULLY SUPPORT SONY & POLYPHONY"S CURRENT ACTION, MX-5's WITH RED BULL SPEED & LENO TANK CAR WHEELS STICKING @ft OUTSIDE THE BODY?STUPID!!!),but hadn't noticed how much difference running in makes,simply because i've always raced with PP,or power(the cars non run in maximum) & weight restriction(what the car would be at stage 2 plus windows),with tuning allowed,which alllows different set ups through the series at different tracks,and to even use ballast to make a car handle better for the particular track.It really works by letting people have their own driving style,which can especially cone into play for endurance events,and even with people using less fuel than in standard setting cars,and tyre strategy can work better. Maybe a thought for a future series.
Apart from that it's been shuffle racing for the standard setups,and you always are yo-yo up& down the field,the way it evens it out with the cars you get depending on how well you finish.
Other racing i'd been at the front mostly for the last 12 months,in open rooms,& regular friends open lobbies,that's why i questioned the tuning week 1,but i hope i acquitted myself well last week.
I will be 100% regular,i only missed week 2 cause a DUI idiot knocked down the junction box nearest me on the saturday night before,no net for 5 days!.
Apologies to anyone who was offended by that Exit message,on looking at it again,i understand how it could be misconstrued,it's now changed. Hope the guy's in Div 1 are happy,i am,and am sure i can run with Mus on my best tracks,on my best day,hopefully that consistency can comebut i'll battle all others first!

Run in doesn't matter that much, all my cars for the last two weeks were fresh from the dealer when I raced them.

Well at HSR it should hopefully make a difference considering the % of lap you're at full throttle.

All good dek, it looked like your exit message as it was the last thing that came up before you left the room.

I'm going to guess the same time. It shouldnt take any longer than the previous rounds, since there is not time wasted between races.

Also, don't forget there has been a game (and firmware?) update since last weekend, so make sure to leave time for that when coming online tonight.
