TA--your PS has got the latest software updates correct?? Try restarting the PS3 and doing the race again to see...its good practice at least.
 Thinking here Zeek......will get back to ya...

Are you doing A-spec, or offline B-spec when this happens?

Ok, here's what I've currently got "shared". The first three will work for the American Championship:
- Chevrolet Corvette C5-R (C5) '00
- Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR '08
- Ford GT LM Race Car Spec II
all are modded about as far as they can be.

Then

- Gran Turismo Red Bull X2010 Prototype (try this after you race the Vettel and let me know what you think).
- Pescarolo C60 Hybride - Judd Race Car '05 (just because it's fun)

Ed, No worries. I'll leave you some cool cars buddy.  :wink:

T.A., It'll be next weekend before I leave. I've got some more remote b-spec left in me before I go.  :thumb:
The headset I'm using isn't made anymore, but it's just a cheap old "Jabra" earpiece. I hear you guys, and all the sounds effects through my speakers, but the mic is hanging on my ear. Just like the Bluetooth set folks use with their cel-phones. Trevor uses the PS3 specific earpiece, but I think it's just a little above your price point. But tell your Dad, being the wealthy guys he is, he can afford another ten dollars.   :P :icon_twisted:

Sitting here at work, I got one b-spec race done this morning. When the second one wouldn't start, I checked the main GT page, and it's telling me to "prepare for a race".

Look like the power may have gone out at the house.   :(

Yes.
If you go to the main GT screen on the PS3, under the [community] section, you can set it to "remote race".
Then you can remote b-spec on y our PC at work through your PS3.
(that's how I'm racing your drivers while I'm at work).

But if I lose electricity, my router logs me out of the PSN.

How do you do that?  :scratch:
I've not seen 300 in any car on GT5, much less 400+.
