I am in, but I do not think I have the car. Could someone send one to me? Just no pink. Thanks.

 

[Toxa]

pink car is just fine

 

[chillumchilla]

Where is that Lupo available?

 

[Toxa]

only UCD

 

[Dibbz]

Sign me up but I might need the car. Not sure I have it. Anyone able to gift it?

 

[ruttyboy]

I have the car, but I only have one of them, I assume if I gift it I won't have it anymore, is it possible to dupe the cars?

 

[Dibbz]

Yeah I think you can make a backup save then gift then overwrite your save with the backup. Not 100% sure though.

EDIT: Wait I've already got the car. Must have been a prize in A Spec or something.

 

[Toxa]

lupo cup car 00 or 03 ?

Missing a brake point is a mistake and should lead to you having less speed out the corner, not more.​

I thought you'd already decided the 03 car Toxa?

 

[Toxa]

yeah 03
just asking

 

[Dibbz]

Toxa is it Nurb GP/D? (the shortest version in the game) Type D is the massive Nurb and I can't imagine 15 laps in a lupo on that lol.

Anyway I done a bit of practice today. Managed a 1.57 this was with ABS off though and with the clutch so I could find a bit of time there.

LMAO yeah it's Nurbur GP/D xD

 

[AbandonedTrolley]

I could make it if it's a Sunday, sadly I'm away this Saturday so pop me down as a reserve if that's ok. I doubt I will be up to your standards, but will get some practice in tomorrow on the tracks.

 

[Risk Breaker]

Lupo race? In Monaco and Nurb? Count me the fuck in (unless something totally unexpected happens again)!

Not sure I own the Lupo though, I'll have to check

 

[Toxa]

you're back I'm so glad, next will be at autumn ring

 

[Risk Breaker]

I have the Lupo GTI Cup Car (J) '03, I guess it's the same car.

you're back I'm so glad, next will be at autumn ring

Oh yeah

 

[paskowitz]

I can only make it Sunday.

yep

I can only make it Sunday.

ok

 

[Angst]

Sunday might be possible for me. Sign me up as a reserve.

 

[Risk Breaker]

I'm okay with both saturday and sunday for now.

 

[Dibbz]

So which day are we doing Toxa?

 

[seattle6418]

I'm 100% there for sunday, might be also for saturday.

Let's got the old gang back because GT is back on the subject once again, so many people are feeling the need to play again.

Will test the combo tonight.

 

[seattle6418]

So my Lupo is tuned... i used one of those restorations cupoms and nothing... what should i do?

you can't play with a tuned car, ask for a gift

 

[paskowitz]

It is going to be close with me. Hopefully I make it. If the traffic is light on Sunday I will make it. Do not wait for me.

 

[seattle6418]

Crysis adverted. Made a second profile, got myself the euro hot hatch cup, gifted the Lupo, now i'm all set.

No oil change too?

 

[Mobius 1]

I have to check if I have the Lupo, pretty sure I do since we've raced it before.

I might put my hands on a custom made cockpit tonight as well, so finally I can compete using my now covered in dust G27.

Weeee ~

 

[Niks]

I'm definitively in too. Did some laps just now.
Should be fun.

 

[Goldrusher]

I'll try to be there.

 

[Toxa]

I hope I can get some more practice before the race, only did 3-4 laps in each the other day, but that prediction seems accurate

 

[Toxa]

thanks a lot niks

so make no mistake the car is the Lupo Cup Car 03

 

[Business]

I could make it but I don't have the car. Does anybody have two?

 

[Risk Breaker]

Sorry, I only have two Lupos from '00, not '03

Also there's a thunderstorm brewing in here lol, I hope it doesn't fuck me up

 

[Business]

No worries, I have the '00 too but couldn't find the '03 on my garage.
I too see what it is probably the same massive thunderstorm coming up from my window

EDIT: besides the car, I'd also need GT5NRL to accept my friend request, somehow it was not on my friend list anymore...

 

[Risgroo]

I haven't played GT5 in ages, I'll see if I can find a Lupo
Also, GT5NRL needs to accept my friend request, it seems I deleted it from my list some time ago...

Lol, oh dear, I just looked at those and thought, "Hmm, that doesn't seem that fast..." Sure enough I checked my car and there were a few bits on it that I must have added in the past and forgotten about, whoops.

 

[Risk Breaker]

WTF, I created my own online room to practice a little and the tuning prohibition won't let me in. But I'm completely sure I never tuned anything in this car :|

Erm, I just tried this to be sure and the same is happening for me... Is it because it's a race modified car?

 

[Mobius 1]

Ready to go.

 

[Risk Breaker]

I checked in the Tuning shop and it doesn't have Rigidity improvements nor weight reductions. x_x

I'll try restoring the engine and chassis but I doubt that's it.

 

[Toxa]

reset the setup everything

 

[Risgroo]

I found a lupo in my garage, but I've made some modifications to it, does anyone have a spare?
