Driving Standards

You will inevitably be punted during the evening (from accidents or lag) but 'revenge' punts just breed more shit driving.
Keep it clean. Even if you think you've been hard done by. Keep it clean.

> Give each other racing room. No other pushing or ramming other cars off the tarmac.
> If you accidentally push or hit a competitor off the track, slow and let them re-pass you to address the situation (apologising via your headset will also help).
> If you deliberately push or hit a competitor off the track, you won't be invited back.

See you all Thursday.

*** Please note ***

This Camaro can be 'race modified'. Make sure you do this first as it will equip the car with various mechanical upgrades as part of the package. (gearbox, suspension etc). Then purchase any additional upgrades after the race mod.

Nice pic!

If anyone thinks this car doesnt handle well, be thankful we arent driving the Challenger!

[MGR]

I haven't looked yet but I think there's plenty of settings for this car on the internets.

[TargaHatch]

Oh Lordy, I'll be there like a fat kid on a cupcake!!

[Skipmaster J]

Might need to dust off the PS3 from storage and hook it up again and get involved

[Fusion]

The Camaro drives a lot better then I thought it would. Was running mid 1:29's around Indy, just wish it had a 6 speed box instead, I can't find a good ratio combination with only 5 gears. Online the car seems a little more twitch then offline.

[TargaHatch]

Fuuuuuuuuuu, what car to use for 450pp?!

[Brockas]

Update required.

Not a big one, but you might want to start your PS3's up early and get it going.

[TargaHatch]

I have MGR in my friends list, is his sufficient? My nick is BoganDave.

LOL love that NASCAR stuff. Most fun I have all night.

I was raging about those Camaro races. I had never driven that thing before, just bought it and slapped in a tune I found on the net, and got within 6 tenths of you - was pretty chuffed!... Then got held at the start line for 5 seconds. So annoying. Luckily a modem reset fixed the problem for me.

Good night again, cheers all.
