Hey guys.

Just started playig this online properly and noticed there is a private section where you need a password to access the race.

Was just wondering if anyone would be interested in having a race??

Say around 10+ people over a 20-30 lap race?

Would obviously post the password up here, and a time the race would start etc...

Maybe tomorrow or if that's to soon some night during the week??

I personally think it would be a good laff.

Obviously damage would be turned ON so if its a 30 lap race, i don't think bashing people off the track would be a good idea lol

If people could create a list if there interested that would be great and i will get something set up :y:

If you could post your PSN account name as then ti would be easier to no if people are in the lobby lol



Ill start:

Saxo_89

Thanks :)

i think there is only 4 at the moment, me included :(

thought there would of been more intrest tbh!

As for crashing etc it will be set so it is as realistic as possible.

One tap of the bumper on a late braking move and bang, yall be in the barrier lol

Im a 3 star champ with a DC of 50, might be more ;)

Do you agree that the online rating system sucks?

Spanky
20th May 2009, 09:43
yea i agree it sucks tbh.

And recently ive found people just spining round and going to wrong way round the track for the hell of it, spoils the game!

i think doing a private race over 20-30 laps will make people race differently on it as you wont want to bash up your motor lol

is everyone still on for thursday night???

Chr15
20th May 2009, 09:46
Tell me what car and track you use and Ill do some time trials to see how we compare as Im not on PS3.

Ill sort one out for the x360oc lol

Spanky
20th May 2009, 09:50
ok mate, im thinking Spa tbh as its a long, fast but also technical track ;)

Not sure on what car/cars will be using yet

Chr15
20th May 2009, 09:53
Piece of piss Spa.

Methinks use the F3000 style cars (the really small one from the start)

Spanky
20th May 2009, 09:55
hmm i was thinking more along the lines of either lacceti's/BMW's or Astons and corvettes.

Or maybe the skylines ;)

Also do you use manual or auto? manual ftw. :P

Spanky
20th May 2009, 10:57

Ive never seen it...

Spanky
20th May 2009, 11:14
lol aye, its a shame if your car gets batterd you cant pit and fix it lol

will just have to be carefull :P

Err im not sure tbh, i dont have a mic or anything so hard for me to comunicate while on the PS3 but can do this one race, and if others still can maybe do another, i may have to leave after 1, but others can carry it on also.
