We have made a couple of important changes to our RaceTube section here at RaceDepartment that hopefully marks the start of a better visibility for all virtual motorsport YouTubers who are all helping to grow our beautiful sim racing and motorsport hobby.


Something that has been bothering a growing group of people is that a lot of sim racing news outlets on the web seem to have a strict old boys network they are pulling videos from, that are exclusively featured to a large audience leaving other quality content creators sidelined.

On the web there are hundreds of channels that are absolutely worth to take a look at it and therefore it's hard to understand why the community is always served with videos from the same people week in week out. We have a huge pie on our hands, why not slice it into a few more pieces?

That said what has been changed to make things better?
  1. All latest submitted videos by the community you'll now find featured in the sidebar of our frontpage www.racedepartment.com
  2. Currently the following games have a dedicated video section coded into their main forums where you can see the latest 10 submitted video entries of your favorite game. Let us know in the comments below if you need more sections added.
Besides the largest video network we also allow videos from Dailymotion, Facebook, Vimeo, Metacafe and others and of course screenshots are more than welcome too.

Hopefully the new influx of content creators will enjoy the extra visibility their videos will now be getting on the largest sim racing website.

Stay tuned for a few more changes soon as creating video content will become an official competition here on RaceDepartment where some nice prizes are to be won!

If you'd like to submit your awesome video content yourself click the RaceTube link in the navigation bar or go here directly and submit and share your favorite videos today with the rest of the community.
 
Hi Bram I really like the decision to feature more videos. But I notice that the "status wall" has disappeared and makes the status entirely useless now. Is there a plan to bring it back or will it just be gone? Personally I love some quick and small interaction between members.

Thanks.
