Excellent. Looking forward to it.

 

[Acegadgets]

Sounds good but probably a bit late for me

 

[The_Carpet_Frog]

For those that need a car both of the Audi R8 are in the Online dealers until Thursday.

Hi there.

New to the forum, but count me in, sounds like fun.

 

[Acegadgets]

Would some kind fellow send me an Audi R8? I am a bit skint at the moment.

 

[The_Carpet_Frog]

Which one do you want Ace ?

 

[The_Carpet_Frog]

Bah cant send one, I forgot about the 1 mill limit.

 

[jonnywombat]

i can put one on share if that helps

 

[Plaxinator]

What about sharing one online, then whoever hasn't got one can borrow it from you.

 

[jonnywombat]

I have added the Team playstation version R8 to share, if anyone wants to use it.

Hope that helps

Last time we tried sharing a car it was not allowed to be used online so I'm guessing it won't work this time either. Ace, I thought you had the Lexus or did the mad Dutchman hang on to it?

Why not do a couple of seasonal events to get your eye in and earn a wedge?

If all else fails, I have a prepped Lexus that I can gift Ace on the night.

Correct. You can only use borrowed cars in single player. I thought I returned the Lexus, but I'll have to check. Perhaps I returned it to the wrong PeaCock

 

[ChrissPeacock]

No mate, I got mine back fine thanks! I thought ace sent you a spare also but am regularly mistaken these days!!

 

[Acegadgets]

i got the lexus back Mr Spruijt, you could have kept it as I have two. I'll do a couple of races to get some Do$h and get the Audi and see if I like it better than the Lexus.

 

[jonnywombat]

New headset purchased, and seems to works. Looking forward to Saturday evening now.

 

[The_Carpet_Frog]

You sound a bit of a hardcore racer jonny what with car setups.
My setup is plumping the cushions up and making sure I have a glass of water within reach.

 

[Slaine]

Like your new sig jonny!!

Unfortunately it does not equate to fast..


The sig was quick and dirty, but will do for now.
