Baring in mind it's gonna be about half past 11 by the time I actually get home from work. I understand if people don't want to do it this late.

I should be okay for race one, will have to see about any subsequent racing as I have a 5:30 get up on Monday :(

At least I'll have the right car this time though, rather than a 3 year older one!

As I said, no sweat if people want to do it earlier and I'll just catch you another day. I know this is unreasonably late for normal people (One of which I'm not).

we can run some stock vehicle if you don't raise the money. the first night we ever got together Nifty was picking stock vehicles to standardize. Keep logging in over the next few days to bump yourself up to 200% credit, even if you don't play, just log in, because by Sunday night you can be making 30k per race (more if you win).

Right, noob question now, but what's all this 200% bonus shit I've been hearing about? I hear it all the time, but no one takes the time to explain what it actually is.

200% relates to the amount of credits you win at the end of a race. If you log in on consecutive days, the percentage increases i.e. on the first day it'll be 110% then 130% all the way up to 200%. So if the prize for first place is 4500 credits, you will end up receiving 9000 credits.

You get a certain amount of credits for winning a race. If you go into GT world mode on consecutive days, you get an enhanced %age on the amount of credits you win.

After ~5 consecutive days, you max out at 200%, meaning your normal race wins will earn you 200% more credits. Easy way to rack up in game cash.

This applies to both single player and online races.

Edit: Damn you Mike. Getting revenge for the spambot, eh?

OMG this track is pissng me off!
Them last 2 corners I just cannot go round constantly fast. Even after about 15 laps I'm still fucking up on it.
Track has a much higher learning curve than the previous track we raced on.

If it means both you and Sminky will play, Matt, I'll buy and race modify you one each.

If this offer is still good, then pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease may I have one?

I haven't just sat on my arse and not tried, just I've had alot of other stuff going on this week.

Right, I have just bought one and about to send it across to muscularmatt, who will be joining Mak, Fick, IronCity, Nifty, Appswah and Phatmann online tonight.

Sminky, if you are able to join us, then ask one of those with burgeoning bank accounts to help you out and send you one. My guess would be Fick.

Edit: I will open the lounge at 7:30pm. Feel free to join from then onwards.

Hopefully everyone who can will be there early which will allow Abu to get involved in a competitive capacity.

Could be a good evening of racing tonight, with numbers steadily rising.

I'm going to try setting up a no damage race. I believe this makes the online racing 'full contact' with no-one going invisible upon contact.

Not a chance I'll be able to make it. I've got an early start tomorrow plus I've had a couple of late nights on FNV so I'm feeling feckered. I will play GT5 at some point, most likely when I've exhausted FNV, I've no idea when that will be though such is obsession with it at the moment.

Fair enough.

In theory, I imagine we'll get a couple of races going at the earlier times (between 8 and 10), as that is when we normally meet and drive.

Also, I just realised I can 'share' cars with anyone on my friends list. Therefore, in theory, I can buy you all VW Golfs and then share them so you can each have one in a different colour. I can then send them one after another across two days.

Try and make it at 8pm, if you can. We'd love to have you!

You think the qualifying is going to work this time?

To be honest, I don't know what's going on with it. The first time I went online, it was just me and Fick driving around and the live timing was working just fine (this is what keeps track of everyone's times and ranks people accordingly).

Ever since then, it hasn't been working. No idea why not. Searched around online, no real answers anywhere.
