Six Star Street Racers Refreshed

Hello dedicated Six Star Street Racers. The last post was talking about the 'Current Recruitment Status'. In this post I will cover all of this plus more exciting features that will be coming to the crew.

First off I would just like to speak on behalf of everyone of you and say that the previous January update to GTA Online was something that our crew and other racing crews really needed. I can only hope that the Sultan RS and the Banshee 900R won't be the only additional cars that Benny wants to touch up. The fact the the DLC came as a total surprise to us all is exciting and if you have any interesting builds of the new rides we would love to see them, which brings me onto the next subject.

Crew Snapmatics

I'm guessing you are all aware of the Crew Snapmatic feature via the Social Club. Well we have seem to have neglected this and we would like to make it a big part of the crew. Our Instagram page has been incredibly inactive and in the past it has been only mine and GTAWiseguy's pictures. However we would love to start making it more about the crew and feature some of our members Snapmatics. I think its safe to say that the Snapmatic app on your in-game phone is pointless and the Rockstar Editor is where it's all at. If you would like us to post your snaps on our Instagram but don't quite know how to use the Rockstar Editor then check out this video How To Take Snapmatics Using The Rockstar Editor by my good friend Vinewood Motors. When you have got your perfect Snapmatic, then please upload it to Social Club and put a post on the Six Star Street Racers Crew wall and put 'Instagram Entry' and then a link to your Snapmatic.

Recruitment Process

In our previous recruitment process you used to have to send an application to one of the leaders and then you would be picked from your unique application. This didn't really get us to know our new members and wasn't very interactive. Our Representatives and Lieutenants didn't really have much to do in the past so now recruiting is going to be down to them. They will meet up with the person who wants to join the crew, check out their garage and find out a little bit of why they're interested in joining 6SSR. All members who are recruited will have their Social Club noted in case they need to be removed from the crew for some reason. Every month or so, the main leaders will get together with the Representatives and Lieutenants and see who they've recruited. We really hope this will help in the long run.

Staying Connected

When a crew meet is hosted, some people miss them for some reason. Maybe they didn't get a notification in-game or just haven't got access to some of the platforms open to the crew members. If you are in the crew to make new friends then you might want to take note of this next bit. In the crew we have several different Social Media Platforms to stay connected with one another. We have Kik, a Facebook Group, Twitter and Instagram. All of these can keep you up-to-date with all of our crew meets, announcements and anything else crew related including getting to know each other in between crew meets. All our Social platforms are listed below.


Thanks for your continued support.

Current Recruitment Status

Hello my fellow car enthusiasts. We understand that plenty of you are raring to join the crew and we are seriously overwhelmed with the amount of applications we have received. We created the previous recruitment process to single out certain people who we thought were fit for the crew down to their unique application.

Being the only crew to be featured on the Rockstar Newswire 3 times is an absolute honour and we can't thank you all enough for watching our crew leaders videos so much (GTAWiseGuy). Now with this privilege also brings a lot of pressure to the crew and we feel like the recruitment process may need updating.

Now at the moment we have 21,000+ pending requests to join the crew with at least 300 people in total sending applications through Rockstar Social Club Private Messages to the Commissioners of the crew.

Crew Commissioners, at the moment, are talking with each other to think of a better way to recruit new members and make sure we get the right people. Several ideas have popped up during this process and all are being taken into consideration. If you are currently waiting on an invite to the Six Star Street Racers, we ask for your patience for now as we finalize everything. Once the new application process has been agreed on more info will be here on or official blog and GTAWiseGuy will make a short video on it stating the new way to join us!

Thanks for your patience and continued support.
