Normally I'll be there but my gf is coming over, so if she puts to much 'weight' in the debate that I can compete or not than I won't be there but I think I can resist her I'll let you know in time. Btw CantDrive55Andy something that is on my mind, we should do something about the starting grid. Because once you start in last, you'll always start last and this isn't fair for those people.. So imo there should done something that these people don't have a disadvantage, maybe switch positions or do a rolling start with the positions from previous race and qualify for the first. Qualifying for every race would take too long tho.

You're absolutely right, ♛ZeNzI23! This is something I'll have to look into when I'm organizing the next Event.

Great point; with this car and talented drivers all around. If you start in the back, much harder to catch up in the traffic than usual. Very big disadvantage.

I'm afraid to say I'm going to have to drop out of this Andy My girlfriend has double booked me and now I'm stuck going to her parents for the evening and to avoid an argument, I decided to go with it. Naturally I'm very disappointed but I hope you all have immense fun tonight!

Mt. Panhandleyourmama is extremely entertaining in this car. The downhill section is awesome! Missing those palm trees by a few pixels is thrilling, and scary at the same time.

With just over 2 hours to go until the start of this event I'm afraid I have to pull out. I have a tonne of work to finish today. Sorry CantDrive55Andy and everyone else.

I'm not going to be able to participate. I have already played for a couple of hours today because I haven't found a Futo (they are everywhere except when you need them), and still no luck. My mistake for not knowing that you can't buy one. I need to go now and have dinner and do things at home... I am sorry CantDrive55Andy for the short notice

EderForty and @driftin, it's ok these things happen. Invites will be sent out momentarily. Just to let everyone know: I know that sometimes before an Event starts, some people are unable to select a car. To avoid accidentally entering with the wrong car, you can destroy all other Sports cars you have so that way the Futo will be the only Sports car you have.

Here are the final results: Congratulations to Doodle for winning the Event! He has chosen the option of a Grand Theft Auto Online: Bull Shark Cash Card. Now there's a few things I want to clarify and make an announcement on: For the first time in Nonchalant Dominance history, I am declaring that we have two winners in one event without teams.Allow me to explain: On the 7th race, ♛ZeNzI23 disconnected. He had a total of 85 points at that time. As you can see, Doodle won with a total of 75 points. Now, it's not fair to Zenzi that he was having Internet issues at the time. Also, doodle shouldn't be punished because of this either (It should also be noted that, at the time, Lupacia💕, was in 1st place on the last race. He disconnected as well. The thing is, is that he was in roughly 6th place the time he DCed. Even with finishing at 2nd, doodle still would have won because Subaru was only ahead by one point). So because of this controversy, both Zenzi and Doodle win this event. For future events, there's something everyone should know... On Amazon's website (for both PSN codes and GTA Shark cards), it says: "Note: Currently, this item is available only to customers located in the United States and who have a U.S. billing address." Now, herein lies a problem. We have quite a few players who are acoss the pond (I am an American). So, they could not be rewarded these codes. I'm thinking there is a way around this though. For example, you could reward GTA Online money to your character, invite the winner to an Invite Only session, and the winner could call the mugger on you and claim the money that way. Zenzi has been a real sport and would not accept an award. He politely declined. It does make me feel bad (because I promised the winner a prize), but I can't force someone to win something, you know? Overall, I'd say the Event was a rousing success. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and plenty of fun and hilariousness was to be had. I will be hosting another event ... sometime. I don't know exactly when. I'm going to be on a bit of a hiatus. I'm on 12 hour shifts at work the rest of this week, so my life will be eat, sleep, work, repeat. Also, because of everything mentioned above, I don't think I'll be rewarding anymore prizes. Sorry, all :-( Finally, for future events, I suggest having vehicles that are easily accessible (ie, cars you can buy off the in game website). Trying to find a Futo was hell for some people. Have a good night and a pleasant tomorrow :-)

After the 6th race I had enough points, So technically I only needed to finished the 2 remaining races. Didn't even need points anymore to win. 7th race last lap last straight in 2nd position, my internet decided otherwise.. Went down for a whole hour.. But everybody being a good sport ofc decided I won, and it is very generous from Andy to reward to people because of some technical difficulties. And please CantDrive55Andy don't feel bad It's very kind of you to reward people with your own money but I don't think you should and personally I wouldn't be able to accept it and be able to look at you without thinking about it. It doesn't feel right imo. I'd rather have you buy some good Belgian Beer and enjoy that with the money with cheering on me ofc Again one of the most fun events I did, had tones of fun with these little stupid cars. Really enjoyed it and you did a good job with organizing this event !
