I had a great time MGT, I'm very glad I made it out. I usually take Monday nights off. :)

Awesome event. I had a blast rubbing door handles with Ronin and chasing the ghost of DudeTuna. Had a few spins and was worried I might get the hook, but thankfully found a tune that I could manage and settled down. Hope to make some more of these in the near future.

This was fun except for when I left to do an oil change.  When I came back, I couldn't get around the track, only realizing after I left the race that my tires were changed to Comfort Softs.

This was a lot of fun. I wound up using an Mazda Roadster RS (NC) '07. It was from something we ran using fixed sport suspension and stock diff. It worked very well on comfort soft tires.  :)

Thanks for keeping this current. I haven't been cross-posting here, but you seem to enjoy the events.  :-*

I posted a typo in the lobby number, so I apologise if anyone tried to use it last night. Fortunately, most people who attend are on my friends list, and were able to find it. The lobby system and I aren't perfect.

The next one should be an easy one to enter, too.  8)

I'm confused about the menu setting for Touring Cars.

When I selected it, the permission for tuning was greyed out, with a red slash through it, but cars were allowed to be tuned? Am I misunderstanding what is going on or did they mess this up?

Sorry I was too tired to make it last night. I was looking forward to the nontuning aspect myself.

I think what happens is you can not add or tune any parts the vehicle does not come with stock. If the car comes with an adjustable transmission or suspension then the adjustable transmission or suspension can be adjusted.

Ah, OK, I figured out what happens.

If you use the class picker for cars and set a PP level, it restricts changing to no tuning. If you use power and weight, it does not do this. Why they would do this escapes me, for now.
