So, i was having a great time with the car/track combo until my niece did a nose dive off the couch and kissed her face of the coffee table. Busted her chin open. And since my sister cant drive, (brother in law dropped them off this morning for a visit, my nephew likes to watch me play racing games so he was pretty happy the race was today!) i had to drive her to get stitched up.

I told my nephew to leave the ps3 on, since i was hosting and i am not sure what would happen if i quit the game and put the car off track, i hope he didn't get in any ones way. Apparently he also told you guys i was sorry for leaving. I didn't expect him to do that, but he is a people person and very polite. I assume the msg got out fine, as i said before he watches me play GT alot so i assume he knew how the chat worked.

Anyways, my apologies for missing this one and i hope my abrupt departure didn't mess anyone up. See you all next week

We did not get to do Spa yesterday... so yeah. Its a great car so I do not see the harm in doing another race with it. I know that people that showed up yesterday certainly won't mind. We need to get more people for Spa though. We really should try to get 8-12 for every race.

Tox did you pm Nab? And I think Salacious Crumb mentioned he could race if it was on a Saturday, you should pm him too?

OK, so I caved in and bought the DLC, now I just need someone to gift me the car... It only shows up randomly in the used dealership right?

Well, I guess I'll share my time then. 2:36.750 as a very fast qualifying time for me. I can see how a very talented driver can break 2:35 though. This track is so much fun!

If there is a race on Saturday then count me in.

Edit: Just saw that the race track is Spa..meaning no race for me this time. Have fun all.

Bah, my best is only a 2:37.690. Looks like I'll have to find something extra, though it's a long lap, and a few small mistakes add up a lot to the time, so if I drive a perfect lap I should be close to you.

You called... 2:35.317

34 is easily possible.

Edit... Sorry.

I can almost taste 2:35 but 2:34? Unreal. I can see 3 spots where I am losing time but I just don't see a full 1.5 seconds after that....

Edit: ok 2:35.477 but it's at my limit. I f'd up two corners and I can see an additional 2/10ths but that's it. 2:34....ugh lol

ah, ok. Good to know now rather than 5 minutes before the race.
EDIT: Lap time down to 2:35.467. Might be a couple of tenths around, but I think I've just about hit my peak.

EDIT2: Awwww yeah, 2:34.944
