Gran Turismo 5 R3V racing series

[Sagaris]

Looks like theres no way to enforce performance restrictions like on Prologue (there are no performance points in the full game) so the best bet for a fair race is to just have everyone throw whatever mods they want on the car to race it, just as long as its a Z4. It would be cool to have certain allowed mods but you know that someone would sneak a few extra parts in , have an advantage and there would be no way to detect it.

So, no restriction on mods, make the fastest Z4 possible!

I have been looking at how to make the online race lobbies, it looks like you can create an online race lobby in the "Open Lobby" part of the home screen or under Community>My Lounge (the coffe/tea cup icon). I think we will try to initiate the race lobby through my "My Lounge" . Everyone should have recieved an "add friend" invitation from me, if not, send me an invite (littlemooney) . Still figuring it out... more details later

I've added everyone from the list in post 1 as well.


F. can of worms. maybe something will open up once we get online races figured out...

Gentleman's agreement? it'll end up being fairly obvious if someone is WAY faster on the straights or something like that...


I just want something a tad bit faster than the VW bus.... LOL!

[HarryPotter]

Yeah I hear there are no mods for the brakes, that's fucking retarded.

So is this game really finally coming out or what? It finally seems like it. If it comes out I'll be on there on PS3 Id javi415sav add me I'll try to friend everyone on whatever the updated page is

[NigelStu]

Jav - it IS out. go get it!


HP - I'm hoping (although doubting) that the brakes thing is just model specific. Similar to how you cant do the race-prep stuff on certain models. Like the Z4... damn.

[javi415]

oh shit

It's only onPS3 huh

I agree with gentlemans honor, but doubt everyone will play clean. So when is the first race starting?

This Sunday Nov 28th 10PM Eastern/7PM Pacific . The first post of the thread has been updated over time in case anyone hasn't made that realization.

I will have "My Lounge" open from around 9PM Eastern or earlier and will be getting my car dialed in since I havent played with any suspension settings yet. To find the online race lobby:

To Join the online race go to the lounge in my profile:

In GT Mode go to the left side bar and select COMMUNITY, then find my profile (littlemooney). When you select my profile it will bring up a column of items for my profile: Messageboard, Log, Mail, Gifts, Lounge. Select LOUNGE. Join in and you will be able to race. Add me as a friend on the playstation network if you do not see my profile listed.

Oh and if hardly anyone shows up this first week then we can make this weeks races just practice or something. Hopefully its a full race though.

im in for the next one. clutchCTRL

[HarryPotter]

i'm in for this race if other people don't show which I have a feeling it won't be a full grid. Hopefully I can get a z4 before sunday.

[5Toes]

I'm level 12 already And it has only been2 days. I think a z4 should be changed to faster car. The z4 m is a greAt car modded, so maybe that. The e90 m3 isn't very good though

[NigelStu]

So what mods has everyone actually done to the Z4?

What Tires? and is there a way to limit the racing to one tire?

[Sagaris]

I have every modification done on mine. Yes, there IS a way to restrict the tires for the race.
