1st Prize
While the TT uses a classic Alfa Romeo, the prize for winning is a current one! On offer this time is a brand new Alfa Romeo 9C Competizione. It has a complete aero package, every upgrade part and a full set of tyres.
Bonus Prize
As a 'thank you' for taking part in the event, there will be a bonus prize awarded to one of the top ten drivers between 2nd and 10th. The driver will be picked by a
random number generator. So, even if you don't make 1st place there is still a chance to win a prize!
Rules
- You must run the TT in Practice => A-Spec Free Run, available from the GT Life screen.
- You must only use the car made available by the event organiser via GT5's borrow feature.
- You must not swap any of the upgrade parts. The parts on the car when borrowed are the ones that must be used.
- If tuning is allowed then you may tweak the settings of parts. If tuning is not allowed then they must be left as they are.
- Two wheels must remain on the track at all times. Cutting corners or using run-offs will result in disqualification.
- You must save a replay of your best lap for verification in case you win the event. No replay = No prizes.
How to Enter
The GT5 TTs are open to
all RaceDepartment members, both licensed and unlicensed. The first thing you will need to do is add me to your friends list. My PSN ID is
Goffik. When you send the request, please put 'RD GT5 TT' in the message so that I know who you are. You may need to do this for each TT regardless of whether you have taken part before, as I will be clearing my list after every event.
Once done and in GT5, click on 'Profile' and then click on my avatar. At the bottom of the screen below my B-Spec drivers, you will see the car required for the TT. Click on it and then click the 'borrow' button. You now have the car and are almost ready to go! What you do next depends on the track being used:
Regular Track: Click on 'Practice' and then 'A-Spec Free Run'. Selecting the required track will bring up the options menu (driving aids, etc), which must be set up according the the event restrictions detailed above. Click OK, wait for the track to load, and then burn some rubber!
Custom Track: Click on 'Profile' and then click on my avatar. On the menu to the left, click the 'Track List' button. You will now see the track required for the TT. Click on it and then click the 'Download' button. Once complete (it only takes a few seconds), return to the GTHome screen and select your own 'Track List' button. Set the track you just downloaded as a
favourite. From here on you follow the same procedure as for Regular Tracks above, and the custom track will appear under the 'My Tracks' tab.
When you are done running laps,
do not forget to click on the 'Save Best Lap Replay' button! This is very important as a replay will be required for verification should you win the event. It will also be used to make a video of the winning lap which will be posted here once the event closes.
Post your lap times in this thread and they will be added to the leader board below. You can make as many attempts and post as many times as you like, so if at first you don't succeed, try try try again! :wink:
Note: If the car is unavailable, please check back later. It simply means that I am running a few laps in it myself!
