    Could not get any joy out of Brands Hatch after a crash early on and Laguna Seca was a nightmare. The N100 race was funny though. Good races, I believe there's a request for a wet track next week?

    100,000 dead now. Such a big number it's hard to get my head around it. At this point I'm giving up blaming Boris and the Tories. They've been voted in time and time again, I'm sure people loved their benefit sanctions when Cameron got voted in, so May was voted in and then Boris. Like people don't know what these people really are. Boris with his silly hair, how adorable. What a world. 100,000 dead. We got what we voted for.

    I agree, many games would be enhanced with the ability to switch between views. In DayZ and the Arma games it's been a feature for a decade.

    I reinstalled RE7 on Steam last night. I played it very little on PC so it'll be like playing a brand new game. I agree @GazzaGarrattits the 3rd person view that makes RE a distinctive experience but I'm a sucker for first person as it always makes me feel like I'm in the game rather than controlling a character, if that makes sense🙃

    If I was trying to save money I would go 1080p with fast refresh rate. You've got a 4K tv, so you can always plug into that when you want a 4k experience.

    I dunno, the game has undergone a few different changes since RE1. Personally, RE4, which I played on the GameCube lol, was my favourite. I liked the trader and the new point of view. Hated 5 and 6. RE7 was good for the atmosphere but I didn't like the combat like James says, so I hope that's better. The lore seems closer to 4 as well, maybe they should give this spin into fantasy horror a different name for the game. Just call it The Village and drop the resident evil moniker.

    I practiced on tracks with long straights to start with (just slowing down and dropping a gear at a time) and then moved onto actual corners. I know you 'hate the straights' but they have their uses😋

    65 quid for it PC won't sell at all. I suppose they're gonna try that shit and since fucks with more money than sense will pay it I suppose. It looks great as far as I can tell, but I guarantee I'll pay no more than 20 quid because it's now stored in the 'wait for sale' section of my brain.

    Alright mate, you're welcome to post your vids on here once you've been in the community for a while. A good place to start your FG journey is by going to the Introductions thread and telling us a little about yourself. Cheers👍

    Also, the actual topics will need to be the Gran Turismo topics!
  19. phil bottle
    Looking good. On the Forum, it would be good that when you click the Gran Turismo link if, instead of taking you here .....it took you here instead. Might as well direct to the new Hub 🙂 Cheers @GazzaGarratt

    Was a good bunch of races. I got my strategy wrong in the first race choosing a car that was awful on fuel but really enjoyed the longer distance. The second race was full of mistakes, braking too late mostly, so happy with 4th in the end. Lee getting stuck in cockpit view was amazing 😅 Final race both Kiwi and I had TV shutdown messages literally within minutes of each other. My message telling me I had 60 seconds to stop shutdown obscured the whole screen and I went headfirst into a wall. This happened the previous week so well done me, I got what I deserved.

    Thanks man, we do tend to get in the region of 10 players on a Tuesday, and possibly more, just want to know how many actually can be arsed to do the league🤪
  22. phil bottle
    Indeed, and to answer you and @Mikepjbell at once on this, like Mr Smug😅 says, the RCZ isn't all that in Gr.3......and it's like across the board with all car makers. I have no problem with everyone choosing the same manufacturer, although that's kind of boring ha ha. And no, @Grebothyou're always a consistent dick but you've never swung it about 🥰
  23. phil bottle
    By power levels I mean classes, we are sticking to BOP. And yes, will be doing more than Gr.3 or Gr.4. I was thinking of making one of the Tuesday night races a league race as we can do 2 other races that aren't league...but open to other preferences. Each season will have a an FG Champion but first to third each season will also receive Grand Final points that contribute to the end of year Grand Final tally. But everyone gets to race in the Grand Final.

    I think we have enough people to consider starting a league. Obviously not right away, as some newer players need some time with the game. But I'm thinking of doing a league by season, kind of like Gran Turismo do. My suggestion: 1 league race a week. 12 league races per season. Points for places. Final league table will take your top 9 points from 12 races. You have to pick one car manufacturer at the beginning of each season which will the one you use for all FG league races that season. I can share the planned tracks and power levels in advance of each season and share results on a weekly basis. Grand Final at the end of the year between the podium winners of each season, which will tally points from all seasons and the final to crown the FG Champion. Let me have your thoughts or alternative ideas. I'd need at least 7 or 8 of us onboard to make this worth doing, so let me know.

    As an experiment I'm going to set out times for tonight and see if we can stick to them. Race 1 Practice = 8pm - 8.20pm Race 1 Qualifying = 8.20pm - 8.30pm Race 1 = 8.30pm Race 2 Practice = 9pm - 9.20pm Race 2 Qualifying = 9.20pm - 9.30pm Race 2 = 9.30pm Race 3 Practice = 10pm - 10.20pm Race 3 Qualifying = 10.20pm - 10.30pm Race 3 = 10.30pm
