Im game to do Tarmac Tyrants, as long as there is a spot open, and I can get a few days heads up.

I completely forgot about this thread, I didnt know the tournaments had started.

This Sunday the GT500 will take place @ 3pm. 2/13/2011
One of us can't make it, PNF will be missed. But we have a new member so I am stoked!


Please before you go online for the race...
Check back here, I will be posting a room number in here.
Last race the settings were set to Normal game quality and it showed in the photos. I have 25down/25up connection so I want to ramp those up as much as possible, and I can only do that if I create a room instead of a lounge.

I would like to keep it in the NICO family, but I would rather have a full race since NICO is too busy doing other things... Like owning Xboxes...

A room is fine with me, Ive raced with 8 guys on very high race quality without issue.

I talked to Cale (Speedy7_7) I think he is down for this sunday. I told him to get in here. He may need to borrow a car from someone.

If we have even more spots open, I have a friend who may be interested. Some of you may know him, he was at NANC in Omaha last year with Cale and I.

Let me know.

Cool. Just make sure you, your friend and any one else for that matter check the regulations and get as close to them as possible. I am looking forward to seeing this series go down to the wire...
