You're right, get it turned on when you get home, there is a big update waiting for you and the game will likely need an update too.

Might not be able to make it at 7 (cali time). Gf's dad is in from Az might be having dinner at that time.

Not sure of the times yet but hopefully I can still make it.

andyt11 06-29-2011 10:28 AM

I dare say we'll go for a couple hours, besides, just cause I go to bed doesnt mean you guys on the west coast should stop. Get there when you get there. Looking forward to it, i was on last night, came last every time. Car is a nightmare.

LSA 06-29-2011 11:24 AM

Great, then I'll be there. I thin the btr is pretty manageable tuned properly. The ctr though... an absolute axe murderer!

I can't imagine it's that bad in real life. I think it's more the fact that a rear engined rear wheel drive car is such a strange concept to the Japanese where it's all front engined front wheel drive.

I'll be there in my mexico blue btr. Did you know you don't get the colors from Ruf cars like you do other cars : ( I really wanted to paint another car that blue but you don't get the Porsche paint colors.

I'll watch out for you. My weapon of choice is a deep red ctr. At 500pp its possible to do a half lap without coming off, any more than that though and it gets tricky. It just wants to kill you at every corner. In reverse.

For your BTR, do you have the wing on top of a wing modification?!!?

Cool, this will be interesting, those things are a b!tch to drive right off the used car lot....tuning and mad skilz are key.

are we doing a PP limit? Will this be open to all PS3ers or just Pelicans?

carrerajim is my ps3 handle. good reason to dust off GT5.

Oh man, that was fun. Embarrassing but fun. Deadlast over and over. Andy, you are fast. I need to get in the 7:50 range just to compete. Will be practicing and tweaking the setup, see ya'll next time.

LSA 06-30-2011 10:45 AM

Was fun, did fine in the practice laps but whenever it came to the real race.... lol

got a different idea for a btr setup for next week.

RichMink76 06-30-2011 10:57 AM

That was alot of fun. If you don't have a mic you should get one. I was more looking forward to talking with some of you than the racing, although the racing was good. Look forward to next week.

PS3 name - Mulsaan

andyt11 06-30-2011 02:35 PM

Yeah I had lots of fun. I think it ended up about 50/50 pelicans vs other ps3 users, but for the first hour and a half it was just us! Takes ages to find anyone on line to race those cars. Looking forward to next week. Will bump the thread up. Might try tuesday next week, I'm not sure how I'll be set for wed. (Doesn't mean you guys cabt play on wed though of course).

LSA 06-30-2011 02:59 PM

haha Mulsaan there was one turn you were going around hot I just barely tapped you and you were done, I was in the Mexico Blue Btr. That was my bad lol.

Awesomepalooza, bringing up the rear with Biv

rdrr 06-30-2011 03:09 PM

damn it, I still can't find a BTR/CTR. Arrgghh.

CMDR Perry 07-01-2011 04:03 PM

Gt5
 
I am in for next week Andy. I bought another Ruf Yellowbird last night and tuned it. Sold my 1st one because it was so difficult to drive fast.

Blue 242

andyt11 07-06-2011 02:54 PM

I won't be able to play tonight, in middle of house move. Will be back to normal by next week I would think. Hope you guys enjoy.

cstreit 07-06-2011 05:19 PM

I haven't been able to buy one yet, keep looking in used cars. Am I doing something wrong?

Icemaster 07-06-2011 05:32 PM

Just grabbed one in Used Chris, first one on on the upper right.

Icemaster 07-06-2011 05:43 PM

chist that is a wicked friggin car.

andyt11 07-06-2011 07:41 PM

Isn't there a yellowbird in the online dealership right now?

If not, I have a spare one. I'll send it to you next week as soon as I get connected up again.

andyt11 07-11-2011 07:42 AM

Anyone game for a go on Wednesday>? Not sure how my week will go but I will try to get on for an hour or so.
