    Bones is ready ( well i will be if my game turns up). NOS_Bonus_888 (think that's my PSN been so long)

    Haven't seen the on-line format yet, how do we join rooms/sessions for this, can you send invites?

    I want one of those caps, big Codies fan since the v8supercars days and Grid one, liked F1 but I sucked at it.
    I put a post about Grid on the forums around the time they were bought out by Microsoft. They contacted me via email and we had several conversations about the future of Grid and the chances of the V8 supercar return. I knew then we were not going to get the V8's back any time soon as the licence was in control of Mocrosoft now and they wanted it exclusively for Microsoft.
    The team were great and when I pleaded to just have Bathurst at least, they replied and hinted I would be happy with what they had install for Grid in the way of downloadable content in the coming 6 months. Very approachable team and they do listen to their customers.

    Not sure how the online works but with an 8pm start (6 for you) it will run for several hours so join in when you can.
    Need any help to record attendance or keep sessions open just yell out Clevo.
    I'll out a post up on the Iracing site, few guys been talking about it around the forums.

    I haven't been on the ps3 for a while and I will be using a controller so I will appear to be driving like a girl on grid if that counts Annon

    The main thing I will need is someone to run that random number generator thing-a-ma-jig on line, for a fair draw.

    Quantities of draws and prizes will be confirmed prior to event.

    I'm in, bought this game mainly for ROOZ online racing events :D

    It might be a good idea to have a few small online sessions before this main race just to get a few more cars, otherwise we'll just be racing Alfa Giuliettas and Dodge Challengers all night (not going to mention the Tier 3 starter car - NSX - here as it's almost too hard to handle with a wheel). Also, this game does have an online pass, but there's the option for a 48 hour trial of online if you are going to rent it.

    Yeah Clevo, I'll do the draw. I only went to a state school, but when I tape my protractor to my abacus I can do all forms of mothratics!

    Yes Frank, plug and play, just switch screen to HDMI and there it is. I was thinking of doing the same but don't want kids anywhere near my PC.
