So this is how the races work:

the races and registration will be posted in our forum, in the GT5 section, if you are registered for the League you will get notified of upcoming events and will be provided the link to register to the Race.

3 days before the race day, we will open a practice server for you to meet other racers and get used to the track, learn some tips from other races, tune your car and plan your race (this is completely optional, and we understand people don't always have the time).

On race day, the server will be open 1 hour before the race, so you can go in and warm up or join at your leisure, 30 min before the race practice starts (qualifying on races over 15 laps) and rules go on. 5 min before the race track is closed and you should go to the toilet and get your beer. Race starts and away you go.

Race rules/regulations may vary for each race and they will be posted in our forum.

That is how the league will run, and we will have a parallel endurance series going if you can commit more time.

All races are casual (except for the endurance series) and you can participate on as many as you wish, but remember, we have limited spots on each race so register for the race you want to join.

yes, you can suck as much as you want, that is what the casual races and practice sessions are for, getting used to GT5 and get better at it, run with more experienced drivers and learn the ropes, and if you feel ready, join the endurance races and get ready to sweat!

Again, we are a community and we help each other out, except when the green lights go and then you become the enemy.

No problems, just let us know if you're not going to make it so we can give the spot to someone else.

Again, it is all casual.

Sony has delayed the game again, this time they are giving us a Holiday date and it is not solid yet, I will update the events and post when we updated the events.

G25... check
PS3... check
GT5... Better not be postponed.

I'm in if this goes ahead.

The PS3 is families (dad got it for media streaming off my server) so might not get it all that often, but yeah sounds good.
