Sorry to say but, this was a disappointing experience for me. I thought it would be more professionally run. People who signed up should have gotten in first and it should have been an invite only session. Granted I did get into the session, but it kicked me out at the start of the drag races. I couldn't get back in after either, and gave up after a number of attempts. I also possibly had too high expectations going into this event, considering it was meant to be a cruise people were overtaking the line and crashing into each other constantly. I was hoping for a nice drive around the map listening to some music and seeing / taking photos of everyone's rides at various stops, also the pace of the cruise was way too fast and people were lagging behind even from the start.
Anyway this is my opinion on what happened for the brief time i got in it.

Anyway this is my opinion on what happened for the brief time i got in it. I'm sorry to hear that you couldn't get back in. If there comes a next time i'll deff do an inv only session but i have the 'tutorial' glitch so thats why i had to make it a crew session, i could have made a special crew for the event but didn't have enough time to organize everything. For the rest i share your opinion, things didn't go as planned with all the stream junkies screaming for atttention. This was my first time hosting an event like this and i learned alot about hosting. i still had a good time with all the drag racing and the first 10 min of the event when cars started arriving 1 by 1.

This makes me mad. I miss the times were Broughy and Doodle were in a lobby together after the Slamming Vans event, and there were just 40 viewers who did not ask if Brought was going to test the heist planes... Back then there were no people asking how to play with Broughy, and Broughy could actually read all the comments in the stream. That were good times. (Grape puffer!). Hopefully lobby's will have less kids in the future.

Aww, seems like people only got pics of my Rat Truck, what a shame.. I love showing off the Tornado and Ruiner, lol. I loved the event, and I liked how on the PS3 side we didn't stick to the normal stuff that was said we would do, I think (from experience on hosting car meets in the past) that letting people decide what to do in the actual lobby is more fun.

@jbcarfreak I tried hosting a car meet on Gtaforums. It didn't end well. People are just raging around and having minds of their own. It's probably not quite as bad but after I read Selephia 's text I don't feel like the Xbox side would have done any better. Btw James Two7 how did the drag race go lol

So much explosions... I thought we would have the biggest burnout of all time at the airport, but it just turned out to be one big dragrage

Smoke just disappears in there? I loved that part of the cruise the most, since everyone was together, just chilling out a little (or at least most of us), doing irrelevant but fun drags.
