awesome

if some of you want to let me know here or go over to the Deathstar thread (listed in OP) to let us know what class and whether you think you'll be able to make it, that will help us plan for Saturday.

Not sure I can make it, so if I can, I'll just show up and you can direct me to where I need to go.

cool.. anyone interested FYI we've dumped the prototype class for lack of interest.  use any car w/ touring in the name or anything that's in the same GT 300ish range.  ask about others.  we're being flexible today!

Damn.  I wish I would have seen this before the race.  I had a '03 Garaiya running 32's but I didn't think it was allowed.  Could have gave tguns a run for his money I think.  Oh well, had fun anyway. 

[EX_stream_tuna]

one of the slower guys ran that car, but it's probably good there was a variety. I cannot stand that merc touring car because it's so ugly, but I guess Tguns showed it is hella fast, and so is he.

without traffic holding you guys up (like me) it would have been a good  race between wiz,tguns, fried and cip.  Not to mention QuietStorm who's also pretty good.

updated OP with this week's specs, courtesy of Fijiboi1989  (a huge Rx7 and rotary fan, no pun intended)

arriving a little earlier than 3pm is advised so that we can know whether we need to split rooms or not.

the main lounge will now fit 14 but that's just so we can see if we are full and begin to split up if needed.  we most likely will not race with 14 in a lounge, due to the issues we've all experienced with that many racers on the track at once and using peripherals.

[EX_stream_tuna]

looks like many, if not all of us are having terminal connectionj issues with PSN.

Anybody here able to get in the lounge?  If not we may reschedule this event for next week.

sorry guys.

[DudeTuna]

Seems to be down for maintenance.

[EX_stream_tuna]

Since most were not able to join the lounge (only those already connecteda t the time of the outage) we're doing a redo of this RX-7 format.

I will personally not be there, but it should be a good one, nonetheless!

posted new specs for this week in OP.  courtesy of xlr8life

sorry for not getting to it sooner.  I think rally is something that you all are training for anyways, right?

3 medium sized races - 1 short pre-race before first race.  No long tuning sessions between races - so bring 3 tunes if you think you need them.  However, most should get by fine with just one tune for the three layouts of cape ring.

[DudeTuna]

I will have to try to make it out for some races. It will help to break in my Suzuki.

Shuffle Races based on Mob Rule

show up a little early so you know what's being decided.  The PSN forum is gonig through an overhaul and we haven't been able to organize properly.

or check here to see if anyone decides on specifics (which may not be saved by Saturday Morning)

I won't be there myself, but show up if you want some mid-afternoon casual racing inside with your AC on instead of baking outside!

[EX_stream_tuna]

OP updated;  600pp any car choice you like.  show up and vote on tracks etc.

sorry for the disorganization lately.  forum went back to lithium  and while that may sound great, we lost a lot in the process, including private discussions to hash things out before we post it.

[EX_stream_tuna]

there is a new event thread for GT Sats over at PSN:

http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/Gran-Turismo-Events/The-New-GT-Saturday-s-Event-Page/td-p/37523919/jump-to/first-unread-message

and it sounds like Clio Cup Cars this week!

[DudeTuna]

17 laps at Le Sarthe is a bit much for me I'm afraid.

I think I have a tip though. Run it heavy to get the most HP to achieve the 490pp limit. I am probably just pointing out the obvious though.

[EX_stream_tuna]

that's probably good advice.  I'll try it if I attend.

on 17 laps, I wonder if that's a type-o.  seems like a lot.
