See original post link above.
poll update, second date is meant to be 2/6

So, I hope we can get more people if they want. Maybe pick up PC2 if you don't have it but have a PS4 because it will totally be worth it!

My thought is to not have this impact the actual 24hr of Daytona, and to do it on a weekend so people aren't obstructed by work (most likely). I was thinking about having it next weekend during the Roar Before the 24 activities, Saturday night. And, I'm aiming for the Lobby start time at 2100 EST to allow people in other time zones to be available but who knows? Please answer the poll.

My current race plan is:
Track: Daytona Road Course
Practice: 20 minutes
Qualifying: 15 minutes
Laps: 24
Cars Classes: GT3 and GT4
Participants: 32 total with AI filling in where necessary.
Rules: Visible damage only, this is for fun I don't want people knocked out. Light penalties. No mandatory pit.

The reason for no mandatory pit is through my testing the slick tires last more than 24 laps and when you mandate a pit it's very hard to keep up with the AI pit times for some reason.

Choose whatever class you like, I'll be racing the Cayman GT4.

I will be streaming via the share option to Youtube and will provide a link before the race. There's 15s delay for the watchers but that doesn't affect the racers. Others are welcome and encouraged to stream so people can watch from different cars (and not just see the wall in mine). Hopefully bored Oppos will tune in if they want for a bit of fun.

Questions?

@poor_sh Is Project Cars available on PS Now or whatever that free game streaming service on PS4 is called. If so, I'd happily join.

[2Poor_sh2Furious]

@taylor-martin I mean, it's not a free game, but it is available to download rather than buy as a hard copy.

[Taylor Martin]

@poor_sh It is on PS Now! Just looked it up. (PS Now is a big library of games that you can stream or download to your console. Pay a monthly subscription and you get many games!)

I won't be home until circa the 29th, so if we play on the 5th I'll be there!

[2Poor_sh2Furious]

@taylor-martin oh I've only had a play station for like 4 weeks lol but cool!

And yeah I'm good with waiting, but we'll see what other people say. Not much we can do if it's 5 to 1 or something.

Hopefully you all check recent posts rather than just the front page, but I'm trying to get this back to the top because I think it was buried by theme day yesterday.

Remember, if you just want to watch us crash you can comment as well. You don't have to be a driver!

Also, if you are a PS4 Sim Racer but don't have PC2, please consider getting it and participating! I think it'll be worth it.

@poor_sh I totally agree with Saturday, i question weather 21:00 may be a little late? Im not sure what time zone you’re in.

[ST80MND]

@st80mnd Ha! Got time zone, knee jerk reaction! We are all good!

[2Poor_sh2Furious]

@st80mnd lol yup

[ClassicDatsunDebate]

@poor_sh Stoopid question: Can anyone whom is also on PS4 and PC2 join as multiplayer?

[2Poor_sh2Furious]
