Because the porsche clashes with the new Zonda that was released as part of the GT power pack. If you have it installed and tried to join the server it wont let you and thinks your running a modified game. As some of us do have the GT power pack installed and the short time to sort anything out its safer to just disallow the car.

ah bugger, okay. RD ran their races before the gtpack release hence them getting no clashes. Must be a car number assignment needs tweaking.

Indeed, and now i cant get on nogrip to contact the guy who released it ive reported the problem on his mod download file messages, hopefully it lets him know someone has posted. I couldnt find a member search or option to pm him directly.  just an afterthought, but was it just you who had a problem or have others mentioned it also? Only asking as i cant see mention of it on other websites and would have thought others may have started commenting on problems by now knowing how fickle simbin online can be, it may even have been an individual skinned car causing probs like we've seen in GTL/P&G before. |

Please note revised first post:
The porsche shall not be available from the mod featured sadly
Rolling start
revised times: 20min practise and 15 qually.
anyone with the official GT addon pack will not be able to join the server if the porsche was enabled therfore only the F430 shall be allowed.
i was wondering when i went on line the porsche was not available ... now i know why ... david |

I find the F430 is more gtr2 like in its behavior so will plump for that. my times were around 44-45's though i did try the sunred out and did 43's

All going to plan, I'll dust off the wheel and race suit and pop in. I'll start from the back too I think so I can ease myself back in. (presuming there's no 107% qualifying rule) Don't forget to go easy on me   |

Meh, should have won this race. Forgot to pre-set my pit-strategy so I spent 15 sec more in the pit while I learned how to do it. Also, Ade hypnotized me so I made the same mistake as he did.  Grats Pete. Sports class rules.  |

Also, Ade hypnotized me so I made the same mistake as he did. I heard Ade's groan on TeamSpeak as he made that mistake and I could see him going deep in to T1 in my mirror. Initial thought was "oh darn it, he's gone and let TT through and he has enough time to catch me". Took a bit longer for me to realise the real outcome  Bad luck there. |

Only 15 seconds TT, you're a fast learner! I spent a minute or so trying to find which buttons did what and then managed to select absolutely nothing and left the pits, picked up a speeding stop/go as I'd deactivated the limiter so had to do 2 more pitstops. Never having pitted in Evo perhaps my assumption that it was the same as GTR2 was not a good one! Learning experience all round, I've never driven more than 5-6 laps in a powerful rwd car in Evo, so the tyre degredation surprised me, my hastily bodged setup that was just right for cold tyres (pretty much all I'd driven on!) was far too loose for worn tyres and my limited abilities these days were insufficient to control the car after the first few laps. So about 5 good minutes followed by mess up after mess up. Oh well, better luck next time! Grats to Pete and the podium. |

Tried to get on last night but got a message about wrong game. Has this game been updated. Think I've got 1.2.15. I thought that was latest

sorry i couldnt join you for this. Had hoped to be in but wasnt to be.
Was doing 1:43.0's with full fuel in the F430, so would have been on the pace it seems.
