Thats fine mate, its the people who don't turn simply because they can't be bothered that I was hinting at

Yoeri Gijsen · Aug 7, 2008

It's ok to do it this way in this league. There's only one group.

Gary Lennon · Aug 7, 2008

Just joined up at GPCOS for this one,i cant believe im just getting into this brilliant sim so late in its life,every car is a completely different challenge,highly enjoyable.
How does car choice work for this series?,i didnt see an option to choose car in GPCOS,do we do that here at a later date?.

Thank You :thumb:

Hi Gary,

I think we will get a post up about 48 hours before the first round so everyone can announce which car and skin the will be driving under. From that point on each driver is fixed to that car and skin as per the paragraph in the league format.
Hope that helps

Just a question: Who thought of that league password??? Is it an Anglicised reference to the donuts we will be doing on the track?

Other than that looks really promising.

Andy Marsden · Aug 7, 2008

Passwords will change for each round and be relevant to the country in question, round 1 is in the UK so the item used as the password is relevant

Are we able to use custom skins i thought they could muck up the server

Andy Marsden · Aug 7, 2008

Default skins only please Ben. :thumb:
To reiterate, could everyobdy please download the latest League document that Yoeri and myself have produced as this should answer most of your questions.

Well Hansje, just how far in front were you expecting to be now that you have that fancy fast PC.

If you slow down, I'll try to keep you company.

Note to self, line the course with bikini wearing babes to distract Hansje

I'll probably be with you at the back to be honest mate, would love to finish in the points every race but I don't know if thats likely even though i'm generally quite strong in GTL races.

Szilárd Szabó · Aug 8, 2008

well..our national league is held on thursday too and its estimated start is on 25 september, so i might miss the 7th round.

GTR Evo

Hello, GTL members. I know we have our first race this thursday, my question Is it possible to drive before the GTR Evolution welcome race on the Nordschleife. Here the times of this event:

Practice: 17:00 GMT (19:00 CET)
Qualification: 18:00 GMT (20:00 CET)
Race: 19:00 GMT (21:00 CET)

If we drive before we can all participate on this famous event to have fun.
What do you think about it Admin of the GTL championchip ?

Training Server

Do you plan to open a training server??:kiss:

Warren Dawes · Aug 11, 2008

The EVO event may be delayed based on the latest release date info.

If we run the GTL early enough to allow it to finish in time for the EVO race time, then it will be very early. I don't know what that would mean for the Europeans, but in my case that would exclude me from the GTL event.

Andreas Löffler · Aug 12, 2008

Was only a question

Ok, then must the gtr evo event start later

Warren Dawes · Aug 12, 2008

I guess all of these plans may be up in the air right now.
The GTL main server lobby has disappeared, believed to be due to the Tentacle Insolvency issue.
And GTR EVO release date is apparently delayed.

Looks like we will have to wait and see what develops.
