Good, didn't want to seem ignorant that I was the only person wondering what a VI was.

of course any chance of free time in my world rapidly disappears.

I'll get the room open at 8:30.

Unless one of you wants to do it earlier. Which is fine by me but post here if that's what you are going to do, just so that we don't end up with two rooms opening at the same time. We would end up in two different rooms and there's not that many of us to begin with!

can a different guy start the room this week? I'm going to be busy wednesday night and will be coming and going. It would be better for all if someone else was the host.

Usually set it to 500pp, penalties and damage are off and I usually don't restrict any of the aids, that way if people are struggling they have options.

So this is like on the Internet? I'd like to try that some day. What do you mean you have to buy a used one?

Its a video game on the Playstation 3. In the game the only way to get yourself a yellowbird or a BTR is to find one used in the car dealership (must be a sweet freakin dealership!)

It's played online against whoever logs in, but we have been running our own wednesday night session with guys from pelican parts and restricting the rules so that people only run CTR and BTR cars.

I've kicked a fair few who wont abide by the rules especially once the room gets busy. Blue, make sure the title says ctr/btr ONLY !! It's surprising how people still join and then get into a civic or an elise!

I'll be on tomorrow night, but I'll be coming an going so I wont make a very good host.

Blue, I just noticed you are in minnesota.

Minneapolis? I get down there pretty regular, its a really nice city, thinking of doing it in the Porsche sometime later in the year.

Andy I am just north of Minneapolis on Hwy 65 in Blaine. Are you in Winnipeg by chance? Let me know if you drive down, maybe we can share a beverage and BS about Porsche cars and their quirks.

I'm certain we can. I get down there about 4 or 5 times a year. Going to try to get a trip in with the porsche before summer is out.

You guys play tonight? I was too busy. Will be back on next week.

GT5 racing last night

Yes we ran for at least 90 minutes. I had to bail at 10:00 p.m.

I was off pace by at least 5 seconds. We did allow some 2's in the game to fill out the field. Using Mic's is the way to go for this event. DP

I have to find my mic, I've never seen it since the move. It's in a box somewhere!

how did the CTR2's do against the BTR's and the CTR's? They were probably a good bit quicker eh?
