Hoping this still goes on, seems like the only time I'm playing GT is while drinking, which doesn't make for very good "serious" races :P  Would love to finally have some FUN with this game again!

Hi guys,

Happy to let you know that I still host this each Saturday.  Anybody is welcome!

Phreak,  in no way, shape or form is this night of racing serious in the least.  It's for PURE FUN!  At the end of a long week, I look forward to many laughs and some good times.  These guys provide just that.

I have a few friends that come out only to this because they don't race a lot.  They feel comfortable not having to worry to much about serious racing and the occasional bump.

This is the speech I give to every new guy who enters the room.
"Hi Driver X, welcome to the room.  You saw the title of the room.  We are drinking.  We are driving.  We are trying to do it as clean as possible.  We understand that some bumping and rubbing is going to happen.  We have one rule.  If you bump someone off track, pull over and give the spot back, then continue on racing them.  Also, have a good time.  Cheers."

I usually fire up the room at 7:30-8:00 pm PST and it goes on long after midnight.  The format has stayed the same.  Vote on a track, race it 3 times. Vote for track, I adjust PP levels, race 3 times.   Rinse and repeat.  Drunks like racing tires but I am willing to run weaker tires with folks who want to (Dudetuna).

Come out, stay as long as you like.  Hope to see you guys sometime in the future.  Have a freshly stocked fridge ready :)

I love racing with everyone, but yes, I do tire the racing soft tires. I do plan on making it this Saturday (I think you caught me out a couple of weeks ago, I was ready and you had home TT. Someday I may make that evnet. I hope.) I certainly wouldn't mind a Drunks on Ice 3 race stint, you know some CS tires and low pp, hopefully a world track.

For sure though, I am planning on joining in this Saturday. Bring on the booze and friends.

Dude,

I dunno if I can spring CS tires on these guys.  I think that it's to much for some.   But, I do plan on making them run SS tires for the night.

Ill be on 7:30-8:00pm PST.  Hope to see ya.

I was more joking than anything else, come on Drunks on Ice! And you don't have to force everyone onto SS tires. I usually just throw the sports softs on myself and race around in the back for a few races. Hell I race around in back even with racing soft tires. :)

Wow, did I have a great time Saturday night and well into Sunday morning. Thanks everyone for some very fun racing. I paid a heavy price for so much booze though. I was completely useless all day Sunday.

See you next week. :)

Yes indeed good sir.  I am going to be hosting again.  Look for the room to open between 7:30 and 8:00pm PST.

Last week went surprisingly well.  I thought everyone did great with the sport tires.  It was a nice break from the RS tires.   So much so, that we will be visiting the SS tire warehouse again this week.

Look forward to seeing the usual crowd and some random drunks.

I wasn't aware of the sound issues.  i have only driven the Sierra time thingy since release of 1.12.   I hope it doesn't eff with the gang too much.

This might be a shitty night, but power through I will.

Surprisingly, I really enjoyed the Sierra timed rally. Loads of fun and got in my seat for some long spells.  Good fun.

You've all got alittle work to do though .... including badaboya, who is was at the top of my leaderboard in all 3 challenges.  ;)

I wanted to thank all of the folks who came out Saturday.  It was nice to see so many familiar faces.  Dude, Dakotan, Phreak, Charlie, just to name a few.

PD's new sound update hurt the evening for a few folks.  Hopefully they get that shit fixed ASAP.

Thanks again gents!
