Broughy1322 When will announce the track for the first race? I think I need to start practicing as soon as possible. I got placed in a team with guys way better than me and in the last race in the PS4 Racing League on the North Loop I was 30 seconds slower than the fastest time, which I think it's pretty embarrassing =P ATM I'm having fun trying to get the GT3 cars in free roam, I still need to get a Sentinel (super rare) and a Penumbra in my garage, and I need to get at least 300,000$ to at least buy the Blista, the Comet and the Bullet. First race will be announced at the end of this week, giving everyone the same amount of time to practice (1 week, which is consistent with the practice people will be having for each of the other events) Also FYI, sentinel and penumbra don't need to be found - they can be bought on the in game website.

parksguardI know The Penumbra is common thats why I still didn't got it, and also because the last race will be with it. But the sentinel might be one of the rarest vehicles in GTA online, I still have two months to get it though. Penumbra is on Simeons wanted car list - switch sessions until he requests it and should spawn no problem. Or use somebody that has one and get them in your lobby.

I had an idea that could get more crew involved. Reserve drivers and other crew members could help out with Track practice in the weeks before each race. Hosting or making up number.
I also thought about the grid for the opening event. You could do a short qualifying race (non-contact). So 5 laps around a short track. Grid could be decided on the best lap time each person manages within the race or on overall result. Could be done in the week before first event and also act as a practice for getting everyone into the race lobby.

Broughy1322 I've just had a great idea. How about using 1 or 2 of the left over player spots to allow people in to spectate the race from the side of the tracks, exactly like you have done in the past on the PS3. Only this time they could record those new/different angles and perspectives of battles throughout the race and send you the footage to use in your final edit for youtube. It does mean slightly more work in terms of organising, retrieving the footage and then editing it but I do think it could add a new depth to your videos and make them really stand out from other youtubers (more so than they already do).

Yeah the Penumbra is pretty common I am going to try to find a sentinel when I get home.

I got rid of my regular Sentinel because it wasn't rare anymore, you could just buy it...

fachuroBut I prefer spending an hour looking for a Sentinel than spending an hour getting 90k$ to buy one =P

Sentinel isn't rare whatsoever, it doesn't spawn as much as the Penumbra, but it does spawn quite often.

Broughy1322 Maybe an extra person could lay down a row of fireworks on the start line and detonate them to start. I find its better to use the firework launcher, as the whistle helps act as a countdown! Also, I'd be happy to jump in too anyone's practice sessions if there need a hand!

Waiting on Teams 3, 6 and 9 for sponsor choice, and all teams except RON and Wolfs for driver/class selections.
The reason we went to 27 people over 30 was the problems in getting everyone into a lobby. If we are going to have extras to start or spectate it will only be one person at the most. He can help make sure everyone is in the right formation at the start of a race and set off the sticky bombs to start. I can of course use the footage from the start of the race in the videos as it would be good to get a different perspective. Question though - if I set the race lobby to open despite it being invite only does it allow people to still join to spectate mid-way through? That could be an option too.
There will be no changes to anything else such as qualifying and whatnot.
