Plus it'll make the years move quicker, or it'll take ages to reach new years.
That would actually make very little difference regarding the speed of the game because I don't intend to run the races in a chunk, just that the updates would come in a big chunk for the teams. But you are right that the pace I had planned (1 race/week) is way too slow. Twice a week is a lot better so a season would last for 8-10 weeks.

e. Edited the first post regarding race weekends.

I'm fine with once a week. Works well in Formula FG, and the F1 sim career. I think once a week would suit you better as a moderator too, you're the one running all the races, and running races takes a long time ;)
(tbh it takes longer to upload the race videos :p That's the most annoying part of my moderating)

But it is too slow for my taste. 1 race / week means a season lasts four months. In a year we would barely complete 2.5 sesons. I don't want to wait that long to get to the interesting stuff :D On average of twice a week (I'm sure I won't be able to keep that rhythm every week) we could complete up to four seasons a year.

You should make quick progress that way. I do 2 races per week in the F1 career, 1996 started about 6 months ago, now we're in the middle of 1998.

Last two numbers wohoo! Shows how our team is behind the rest of the field

but I hope to bring it to the top, and that victory they never got sadly (Hill came pretty close in 97)
 
Ok, I'm back home and time to explain. As I said earlier, I was very short on time on Friday but really really wanted to get those sponsor offers out. As it turned out, I had to stay at school late that day and thus had no time to even get online before I had to reach my train.

Didn't I say a while ago that I shouldn't promise any deadlines? :rolleyes::D

Anyway I will post the offers soon. (After I read through all those alerts and PM's :D)

@Lesley Buurlage Sorry I missed you, I somehow assumed Milos had tagged you in his post. Because I wasn't able to send those sponsor offers yet, I can still let you in. (More the merrier! :)) Just post which team (list in the first post) you'd like to manage and I'll add you to the list.
