Default Gran Turismo 5 – online fun

UPDATE Sunday 28 April 2013:
Jump on for a bit of fun.
Add me ( GTP_AussieAlex ) to your friends list in the PlayStation Network, otherwise you will not be able to see me and my room in Gran Turismo 5.

I will be hosting a room from around 8:15pm. There WILL be updates if you haven't played GT5 in a while so log on before hand to download them.
Feel free to join in any time. I should be on until.. well whenever we get bored. Unless you pingpingpingpings shit me off, in which case I'll rage quit and leave you all alone to be pingpingpingpings by yourself.

Please follow the steps below to join. Also be considerate and keep your connection as good as possible so we can have smooth races (i.e. don't download p0rn while racing. It can wait (I hope!).

GENERAL DETAILS
Races will be long enough to need to do one pit stop, but the tyre and fuel usage will be on max so that they should only last 5-7 laps before you need to pit.

I might chuck boost on low after a few of the 'serious' races so that our racing will be kept close and if you get punted off big time you'll catch up within a lap.

***********

HOW TO JOIN
(obviously replace "MGR" in the below guide for "GTP_AussieAlex")


Tonight it's not so important, but if you would like to jump on regularly then it's HIGHLY recommended you follow a few steps which will make your connection as smooth as possible. This includes putting your router into a DMZ (demilitarised zone).
Guide is here:

Racing again tomorrow night.

Send a friend request to MGR with a message along the lines of "Perth-WRX" or similar.

Bring a BMW 135i Coupe '07 with you to race. Paint the car, change the wheels if you like but do not modify. Racing is restricted to unmodified cars only.

We will race other makes of cars throughout the evening too, but unlike the BMW they will already be available; the BMW you have you buy to use.

Feel free to drop-in any time during the evening.

As posted by Alex, just remember to bring a stock BMW 135i Coupe '07.

If possible it's a good idea to jump online beforehand and run 5 laps in the Bimmer on the following circuits:

- Grand Valley Speedway / Reverse
- Nürburgring GP/F
- Côte d'Azur

Even just a practice handful of laps will make a big difference.

Your always out for dinner. You shouldnt say your going to be out for dinner - you should say "Im going to be in for dinner" on the rare occasion that you are
