I'm in for weds nite. I have tuned and practiced. I finally got consistent (sort of) 7:40ish times. Not sure how this will translate to racing others but my times are close.

Ok, well I'll do my best to get on by 8:45 central time. If I don't, one of you guys should start a room and I'll join later. We just have to be careful not to start two seperate lobbies, not enough of us to go splitting up like that!

If something changes I'll post that I cannot make it.

FYI, Moving house is a lot of work. I'm beat. Nearly done though.

I got a second hand wheel - it did not help my game! Save yourself the money and buy something for your real car!

That was some fun stuff last night. I think I have more testing and tuning to do before next week if I want to climb out of the cellar.
Thanks for setting this up.

Yeah that was fun. Biv is improving too eh!

I need to get my BTR sorted out. Never really been able to tune it.

My times are getting better. I still struggle with other cars on the course. I must be more patient and agressive at the same time. A connundrum no doubt. More practice and am looking forward to next time.

its a narrow track all of a sudden once there are other cars.

Plus, not like these cars handle all that well. I nailed you Biv on the last race, sorry about that. Was on the grass skidding and gaining on you. Couldn't slow down or get back on the pavement! When you turned in for the corner I ran right into the side of you about 30mph faster than you were going!

Looking forward to next week too.

My PS3 died last night, flashing yellow death monitor. May not make it in next week.
Bummer.

That sounds bad. Last time mine broke down, sony sent a box out for shipping, and had me send it away for repair. All in all from the phone call to having it back in my house working, probably took ten days. Pretty fast I thought all things considered.

Gt5

Andy I am back online for tonight. Picked up a new console and my techno geek son transferred my data to the new machine. Then I had to get a new password and the support site was down for 3 days. Ran a 7:39 on Monday night racing the VI.
