Right so as a few will be missing and I rather have a full as grid as possible what about this.
We skip tonight do next week but run rd4 and rd5 on the same night.
We skip the sprint race put extra few laps on the main race so race time overall will be the same. So first race be Monza 2nd race route x then 3rd race dragon trail. Winner of race one picks car for race 3. We do double points for each race so make the same point scoring ability as a normal night.

Maybe bring in pit stops and 2 tyres must be used if that interest enough people. Hopefully by then we see what the new update brings with regards to lobbies etc.

Agree, larger grids better than a smaller one for all. Compressing the schedule may work get the season done.

Looking at the thoughts on the main GT7 thread seems lots are waiting for those lobby improvements, hopefully they come soon.
Yea agreed this was part of my thinking compress the season see what happens with any lobby improvements as they ain't the best ATM.

I'd say we've got a better chance of getting the championship finished doing it in one night with the lobbies as they are. At least if it does play up we already have everyone there so a reset can be done quickly
Yep good point they ain't great ATM doing daily race b and the frame rate is horrible ATM and bit laggy too. If everyone is good for sat evening we can do it then.

So is everyone good for Saturday evening say 8pm onwards. Also as we can change settings in lobby don't have to redo lobbies neither.

I did mean 4C hehe. The 8C handles pretty well, the 4C feels like it wants to kill me even through the screen lol
On sports soft tyres feels better than race hards for me.

Unfortunately I'm not about this Saturday but I am about this Tuesday 28th, then away traveling on the 5th, then should be around for a few weeks in a row after that.

Don't worry about me though, if you guys want to race on Saturday I'll join in the next races as really enjoyed them so far.

Sounds like the update today has really helped out with the lobbies so that will make things a bit smoother for Chris.
Ok bud we see how many are on and go from there really. Yea lobby changes will mean we can stay in one lobby and change settings so that's a huge benefit. Hopefully see you on another night

Sorry completely forgot after being at work, although sounds a typical GT7 night. laugh
The lobbies were shocking even for GT last night honestly. I got kicked out of the room once before we even started the race, then 5 mins or so into the race eveyrine else on the map started to go mad and I just had to wait to be kicked out of the room while I was leading the race, then before I even managed to get back in to spectate I heard the other 4 laughing as the game completely lost it's st hehe
It has to be where everyone was on farming the glitch with the engine swaps. Never had a evening with lobbies that bad. I was laughing so bad watching the cars lag everywhere I even crashed myself.

Try again Tuesday hopefully be a calmer night. Oh I got to stay why in earth did I pick the 4c for.

Don't forget guys going live usual time around 7.30pm make sure you have enough money to buy a car for the last race. So will compress last 2 events into one night.
So Monza 30 mins race kick off about 8.15.
After that route X withe zr1
Then race 3 at dragon trial hopefully get start time 9.30 round up by 10pm. Also may be able to announce season one champ tonight if we can work out points quick enough.
Also don't forget joker card to be played for ones that haven't used it if you don't use in first race will use your last race as the Joker.
