So far no team has 2 members or more with the same car. Lets keep it that way ok? :p



Also, I updated the OP and the To-do stuff, let me know if something is wrong:

Oh, and I am now accepting substitute drivers for the missing 5 slots. But be warned, you WILL be kicked out if a team member that's supposed to race confirms that he can make it afterall.

Looks good except Team Parabolica selected weekend warrior for our captain.

If he switches to a 4WD we'll have to change our team name :lol

Weather races would be nice, even if it's a side "for fun" event and not part of the actual league.

Holy Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck, I totally forgot that I chose the Fairlady.

Why did I have it in my head that I was driving the Audi TT?

*total mind implosion*

- What are the prizes?​
Yes! Yes there are!
At the end of the month, the NeoGAFer with the fastest time, as well as a randomly selected participant, will be allowed to choose ANY purchasable premium car, as well as a limited list of standard cars (I don't have them all yet :p), to receive as a prize.
Craving for that F1 car? Here's your chance to get it!​

- How do I submit my time:​
Everything you need to know is on the NRPC OT​

- The reasonably priced car for this month (February 2011):​

Hey MM, are you aware that your PSN friends list is full? I just tried to add you.

Yeah I know. I keep removing people but it keeps getting full anyway. Getting to a point where I can't remove more people.

Damnit, if I would have known that 31,000 was within the 'reasonably priced' range I would have had a lot more choices. Here I thought we were sticking to cars 20,000 or less for some reason LOL.

Good choice of car though, I love Golfs. :)

*nudges Seks*

Hey, are we gonna set times together again? That was fun last time. RPC time party!

Welcome to my world. Will you be available for racing tomorrow (or today)?

My deep knowledge of time zones fails me, so I'm gonna need a countdown link. Can't find it in the OP. :/

What happens if people don't have a car "registered" by tomorrow?

It's starting to look like only me and brentech are all set to go as far as Team Wankel goes. Beefo and h3ro were not available for round 1 but I think they're still game for the league. Expy is MIA, got no response at all yet. :/

If they're not racing then it's no problem :p As soon as they race with one car, that's the car they'll use for the rest of the league.

Since no one else on my team gives a shit, I'm going to take Purple if that's alright. :p I got some pics of my baby as well, just not in my colours. I'll chuck them up in a bit.

I am not the captain you deserved, but the captain you needed.

Guess you can count me in as Team captain and I'll definitely be there tonight. Still need to paint my car...

Cool. Is it straight into the race at 2AM? or are we doing a QLF/Practice just before?
Click to expand...
Server goes up a few minutes before just to prep things up. 5 minutes warm up. 10 minutes qualifying. Then race. If you're not in the server by the time qualifying ends, you won't race.


Also, we now have a full 16 players grid for Round 1. Awesome!

Yeah... Your team already has 2 members registered. I can change it, but you'll have to sort it out between yourself who races. I won't put someone in place of the other one unless both agree.

Metal: VW Gold GTi '05 is 262HP stock, right? I'm wondering if I need a new one/buy a new one or if this is stock. :/

There a way to make sure it limits to that? Cause while mine is un-tuned, with just 21km on it, it's already broke to 150hp.

We allow break-in. One of the reasons why we allow another attempt in a different day (gives you time to break-in if you haven't already).

That being said, all my times are with the cars almost as new. I hardly practice. Until we get some better restriction options for online servers, there really isn't much i can do.

Oh wow, I never knew that. All this time I've been driving cars with no break-in for the RPC challenge lol. (practiced in arcade mode to prevent break-in)

Yeah, same. I'd just happened to use this one on a past seasonal. Then I got to thinking, how are we to know that everyone is on a level playing field? Wasn't aware we allowed that, I just used the stock online garage model last time since it happened to be available for that car.

They should be able to add a 'restrict to standard parts' option without too much pain.
