which sucks.


On another note. Totally figured out my secret to racing. 5 beers plus 1 crown and coke and my god i havent crashed in 15 practice laps Probably not the fastest lap times but consistant. Maybe im one of those weird people who does actually drive better drunk than sober? (not that i would EVER test it in real life, 100% again that for personal reasons but in a video game ) hmmm beer have another beer during the pit stop to make sure i keep at the same buzz level

Hey..... whatever works for ya

I used to be really into target archer (hence the "boshuter") and a guy who shot out of the same shop I did was probably one of the top 5 in the nation in NFAA indoor archer. We were shooting at the nationals in Kansas City one year and I was watching him shoot, it amazed me how calm he could be under a LOT of pressure; I asked the owner of the shop how he could be that calm and he said "do you notice him going outside now and then when he isn't shooting, he is going out to take a shot of whiskey".

lol i know the feeling. I just did 30 lps on r246 which as im sure you know is pretty amazing for me.

It always amazes me how people in these high pressure jobs/sports can just go behind a wall ro something and come back and be completely calm. I suppose i get that when im skiing in the back coutnry a bit. Can be somewhat sketchy avy terrain but seem good ot go. Ill stop, close my eyes, take a deep breath and go and be fine.






Anyways hopefully its good to go next week. R246 is one of my favorite tracks so be fun to actually race on it again

PSN is supposed to be working by 8am tomorrow, Japan is supposedly up now. We should be good to go for next week. I may try to recruit some drivers this week. It would be nice to have at least 8 - 10 on track.

R246 is one of my favorite tracks too..... so is SS5, I just love running that track at night. :thumbsup:

It doesn't look like PSN will be up this weekend either. It should be up by Tuesday from what I've read.

I'm not holding my breath.... when it comes up I'll believe it. This is crazy.

I've been running the WRS (weekly racing series), over on GTPlanet, at least you don't have to be online for that.

I'm not sure whether I can make it this Sunday (assuming PSN is back up). Its going to be a crazy couple of weeks for me with moving and other stuff.

Lol... I'm not holding my breath about it being back up by Sunday. If it is and anyone wants to race, we'll do what we can. I'm thinking about a big change in the way we are doing this.

I wouldn't be able to for a couple weeks, but would love to get in on this!

Just keep watching this thread. We may be making some changes to the format, but I plan on us having races every Sunday as long as we get participation.

To everyone else, IF psn is up, we will try to race this Sunday at Tokyo RT 246.
