I'm in as well (we're starting this after the NRL event right?)

I'll be using the the Lexus IS350 I think.

EDIT - for the new page:

In light of the upcoming Easter holidays, we have decided to postpone the start of Season 2 from the 16th of April, to the 30th of April. We know how it is important to spend this time with your family and friends, so here at the Super GT Committee, we feel it's best that the drivers get to spend as much time as possible with their loved ones before they head back to the track for another Season of racing.

Instead, the Super GT Committee will organise a charity non-championship exhibition event for this upcoming weekend, to benefit those affected by the recent Japan Earthquake.

This event will be a GT300 class event at Tsukuba Circuit. The following cars are available to compete in the event with:

ASL Garaiya (ARTA SuperGT, '08)
Lexus IS350 (WedsSport SuperGT, '08)
RE Amemiya RX-7 (Asparadrink SuperGT, '06)
Subaru Impreza WRX (Cusco Dunlop SuperGT, '08)

ASL Garaiya (ARTA JGTC, '03)
Nissan Silva (C-West Razo JGTC. '01)
RE Amemiya RX-7 (Asparadrink JGTC, '04)
Subaru Impreza WRX (Cusco Advan JGTC, '03)
Toyota Celica (WedsSport JGTC, '03)
Toyota MR-S (SuperAutobacs Apex JGTC, '00)

Season ticket holders will be issued a full refund and be eligible for priority to purchase tickets for this replacement event. Please contact the outlet that you purchased your ticket from for further details.

Meh, waited long enough for season 2 so what's another 2 weeks. Won't it be near enough 2 months since the end of season 1?

Yep, pretty much. Will you join us for the event on Saturday?

BTW - the event on Saturday is open for everyone. Don't bother about teams etc. In the event that we get a full grid it's first come first serve.

Probably not, my GT5 interest has deteriorated lots since the end of season 1, I'll just sit tight until season 2.

 

[brentech]

well crud. figured easter race would be moved, but not so much the opener. Hopefully I can still make enough races.

We felt it would be weird to have one event and then hiatus. Also we'd prefer more teams to register.

 

[Niks]

What time will this event take place?

 

[seattle6418]

Great news. I´m away this week and i was going to miss out on Suzuka, and didn´t knew what to expect on easter week.

Let´s try to get a full grid by april 30th.

Great, so we all miss a perfect opportunity to pick up any points this season.

 

[Dibbz]

Have we come to a decision on Rain yet?







I'll just leave this here

 

[l2ounD]

thats hot.

I dont care either way, Tox will be doing the rain races for CCR

 

[TheSeks]

Too bad it doesn't look like that outside of cockpit view.

 

[Mush]

Practice tomorrow, gents?

 

[Angst]

Practice tomorrow, gents?

Tomorrow as in tonight?

I'm up for a session today at 19.00 GMT / 21.00 CET

 

[ashk]

So what's the news on the starting time of the event? I need to know if it's compatible with the NRL event and doesn't start too late.

It will be after the NRL event. Considering this is a casual thing, we're not going to be too strict. I'd say somewhere around 21.00GMT, unless you (and Toxa) have a problem?

21 GMT should be fine, providing the NRL event starts on time.

But I just remembered that the Chinese Grand Prix is this weekend (it starts at 8 AM here), so I'll probably be too tired by then. Maybe I'll take a nap before

 

[Angst]

I'm in the lounge

 

[Mush]

Konosuke, Juicy Bob, He Who Must Not Be Named, AzRim:


WE WANT YOUR BRAINSSSSSSSSSSSS

He Who Must Not Be Named will be back in business in 2-3 days I think.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Yeah, I'm a bit in limbo until then. Rest assured, we'll get a car and team name sorted soon afterwards.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Yeah, I'm a bit in limbo until then. Rest assured, we'll get a car and team name sorted soon afterwards.

I'll let you know what car I prefer tomorrow. Still need to do some testing.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Cool. Welcome back!

 

[Risk Breaker]

Same as in NRL, won't be racing this weekend. I'll try to practice with you though, just for fun.

Ashk just reminded me that I'm probably going to miss the Chinese GP as well, crap.

 

[Mush]

Who is able to race this weekend anyway? I know it's just a casual thing but it would be nice to have a bit of pre-season fun.

I'll be there.

I'd really like to race since I found the GT300 cars really fun to drive (maybe we should have more events like this?). But with the NRL event being the difficult Formula GT, plus getting up early to watch F1 I might be too exhausted to do another race. I'll do my best to make it though so consider my entry provisional

 

[Dibbz]

I'm hoping to make it. Will probably use the ASL Garaiya.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Is the car list on the registration page up to date? (including duplicates marked as GONE where it applies?)

 

[Angst]

Yeah, it should be.

 

[brentech]

'should' be able to make it.

 

[Mush]

OK, here is a little update regarding Konosuke and Permadeath.

Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, Permadeath is unable to compete in Season 2 of the League. So, Konosuke needs a partner.

Does the AzRim or anyone else wish to help out our (2nd) Portuguese friend?

 

[Niks]

I will try to make it for tomorrows race.

 

[TheSeks]

Depending on if I can get my ass up, I may be there. I do need the practice.

 

[Dead Man]

Yeah, if I can wake up, I'll try to be there.

Also, I am still not getting the Epson NSX to 502hp, it seems to not get over 490 odd, even after oil change and 2 endurance events.

 

[Dibbz]

This event is two hours after the NRL race right?

 

[ashk]

This event is two hours after the NRL race right?

Mush said right after the NRL event. It probably won't start right away, there'll be some time to practice etc.

 

[Angst]

Lounge is up. Gt300 guys

 

[Toxa]

I'm off for tonight sorry

 

[TheSeks]

GT300? I was just going to use our NSX. :/

 

[Metalmurphy]

I'll try to be there in a bit.

Need to do the NRL results and rest my arm a bit.

 

[brentech]

that's the first gt300 I've driven, even though I own about 6 of them or so. Totally different feel from the gt500s. Felt like I was in a go-cart, at least in the particular model I chose.

Well, it was an MR2. And it's like 11 years old to boot.

 

[seattle6418]

Did you guys played tonight? How was it?

Slow. Got lapped by 3. Over took Mush and Niks due to phones.

Actually, I just parked it out of sheer frustration after I selected the wrong car (I have 2 of that particular Silva) and ended up driving the one that was fresh from the USD without an oil change and Racing Softs.

Seks 1 - Mush 0

 

[Juicy Bob]

After that unbelievable F1 race, I reckon we should enforce a compulsory stint on Comfort Soft tires this season.

I wanted to make it so that everyone would have to use both the Hard and Racing Tyres at some point during the race but we agreed it would be too hard to police and considering GT5's lacklustre tyre physics, it wouldn't be that fun either.

Too hard to police? You can watch the replays and see which tyres people are one. Then slap them a penalty if they cheat

 

[brentech]

And that's the problem. a) it's retroactive and b) they could have effect on other races that maybe they wouldn't have been around with the correct tires.


just isn't worth the risk imo
