Note 3: Only the skins that come with the mod please, and lets try and use all the liveries for a colourful grid.
Note 4: Unpack the mod into your main GT Legends folder
Note 5: TheDatsun 240 wheel graphics fix. Extract from folder and place in Teams/GTC- TC-76/Datsun240
Note 6: We are using the SIMBIN lobby for this event. See here how to switch lobby
Note 7: We run a superpole qually, you get one chance only at a outlap and qually lap. Take it easy on your outlap and get you car in a good position to run you qually lap, leave enough room to allow for the unexpected from the car infront
you don't get another go if you have to take avoiding action..
Note 8: Racing Room must be given to all drivers–and this works both ways.Divebombing into and across a corner denies people the chance to make the corner correctly just as much as someone obliviously (or deliberately) cutting the nose off of another driver who has achieved partial overlap fairly. AndThe kerbs are not deemed as track, therefore 2 wheels must be within the white lines, on the tarmac, At All Times..
Note 9: Please be careful when entering the track after a off track excursion, Cars may be coming that you do not see
No reversing back out onto the track !!

These cars have inline 6 cylinders. BLT actually did a pretty good job replicating the engine sounds. I have a friend that has lightly modified 71 240Z. The reason why i got so excited when the mod got released

If I don't sign up the missus has some house repairs for me! I'M IN, PLEASE!

You can get out of your missus " To do list" by doing that! lucky guy you!...

 

[Andrew Jarnell]

Hi Hiroshi,
just had a look on piston heads you can get one for £15000. 6 pots it is, must sound great.

Hello Jason Holden-Jones and welcome to the club

we have a little help section with some little gems in there. Found HERE
we all use XD to keep an eye on the tyres and fuel (the in game fuel is not reliable when using mods cars)

If you need anything or unsure about it give us a shout, there is always someone around to help

see you on track

A couple of things that sometimes get missed in the first time on track.. As the sim does not allow us to do this through the game we do this ourselves.
Note 5: We run a superpole qually, you get one chance only at a outlap and qually lap.
Take it easy on your outlap and get you car in a good position to run you qually lap,
leave enough room to allow for the unexpected from the car in front
you don't get another go if you have to take avoiding action..
After you have done your fast lap you can press escape to go directly to the pits you don't have to complete the in lap.

You will find there are allot of us on T/speak for the event .. Useful info on setup is talked about..
typing in chat is allowed in practice as long as its race related
typing in chat during the qually is not allowed,
T/speak talking in qually , we try to keep quiet.
whilst in the race keep communication to a minimum, race related stuff is ok..​

 

[Sakis Politis]

Been some time since my last race. Moved in the countryside due to my job and will be staying there until October. Just arranged everything with my new network connection, might be a little slower though...I have very little free time and lost some of my speed due to lack of practice but I will try my best to be there, I missed you guys!
I will inform you on time about my liveries.

 

[Kjell Eilertsen]

I'd want the ZG #89 and the 2.4 Fairlady #72

 

[Sakis Politis]

For me: 240 ZG #54 and 2.4 #26. Thanks!

 

[Sakis Politis]

I try to log in and have some online practice but this appears: ''cannot join game - track not installed''. I used all links Rupe suggests, any ideas of what I do wrong?

 

[Tim Ling]

I don't think the server is up yet Sakis Politis

 

[Sakis Politis]

Then how come I see 10 and more people in the lobby if the server isn't up? Sorry for being a newbie.
