Caterham Tunalight R543! (http://www.supatunagt.com/smf/index.php?topic=1538.msg50856#msg50856)
(click above for car spec)

This week we go spec racing with a specially commissioned Tuna edition of the classic British Caterham sports car!  Tested and tuna'd by the boys at our very own Fishtank Motorsports secret facility (located at 123 Pebbly Beach Industrial Park, between SeaWeed Castle and the Bubbling Treasure Chest), this excellent package is based on the Caterham Seven Fireblade and though it is heftier than the base model it is still surprisingly agile due to the upgraded suspension package and has a nice increase in power to boot.

Was in the process of getting the room set up and suddenly the PSN logs me out and I can't get back in due to a DNS error, thanks Sony!  Trying to get back on but if anyone wants to start up a club room for TOC please feel free :).

I checked that, Dude :), managed to log in on the website but not the console.  Closed GT6 to check network connection on the console, everything shows good on the test and magically I can log in now with no DNS erroes  :-\

I was just looking on the internet and it seems there are quite a few people having trouble logging in to PSN. Your console is just fine.

Had a good time last night saw some folks I had not seen at a GT6 event in a while. Had a good crowd with about 5 or 6 core group members and five or six that rotated in and out of the lobby. Tough track for such a light weight car meant you had to stay focused every turn of every lap but it also meant there were several changes in positions up and down the field. Thanks for sharing the track with me y'all.

most of the snakes around here are pretty small, although some folks found a 3metre  (10ft) python not far from here the other day.
