For anyone that wants to have a practice 'cruise' to test their cars under competitive conditions, do the following:
1. Add polski_sklep to your PSN friends' list. That's me, by the way.
2. Once I've accepted, go to GT career mode and then click on Community. Then scroll until you find me (polski_sklep; I'm level 31 as it ranks it this way) and click my icon.
3. Click on the coffee cup icon labelled Lounge and choose Join.
4. Once in, go to your garage, choose your car, tune as necessary and then hit go to track. You'll only be allowed on the track if your car meets the requirements.
5. Once you have gone to the track, choose 'free run' (middle option, do NOT click Start Race) and you'll be able to time trial your car. Quickest lap times of existing lobby members are ranked and available to be beaten (it also provides you splits against the current pole-position sitter).
The room has the relevant restrictions - only assist allowed is ABS; PP limit at 450 and the best tyres allowed are racing hards.
Tyre wear, fuel depletion and damage are on, as well as penalties for short cuts.
Perfect test conditions - get me added and get involved!
If, for whatever reason, I am away from my PS3 this evening (i.e. during the football), I will leave the lounge open so you may still join and drive around. I won't necessarily be there to see you, though.
