Hello

So what is the difference between owning a team and being a driver? Is owning a team just to enter a team without being a driver?

Depends. you can be both a driver and a team owner (providing you drive for your own team) or just a team owner technically although I'd imagine that wouldn't be exactly exciting for most people

OK I most likely be in with the same Team and perhaps @Milos Ancevski will also return

 

[Aidan Keranen]

and we're coming back, hopefully bigger and better this season

 

[Milos]

Yes

 

[Benutzername]

If i understood it right in our conversation, me an Joel will stay in our team Online Martini Racing.

And because we already have a livery there i think well stay with Opel.
but before i am doing that on google docs ill make it clear with joel.

 

[Omer Said]

@kedy89 up for another season?

 

[the_sigman]

In the document, is Indianapolis the Oval or the RC?

EDIT: Motegi too

 

[Deleted member 161052]

I'm in!

 

[Lesley Buurlage]

[Lesley Buurlage]

@Rui F. Martins want to be teammates again? otherwise there'll will be a seat for someone else who wants to drive in a reliable car

 

[Rui F. Martins]

@lesleyyb i would like to, otherwise i would have to find another team

 

[Jack Hunsley]

In the document, is Indianapolis the Oval or the RC?

EDIT: Motegi too

Just the normal versions, ovals don't tend to work well with GP4

 

[the_sigman]

Just the normal versions, ovals don't tend to work well with GP4

Ok!

I had submitted it, but I thought making the question for the next people would help

I will be in, but I haven't decided the team yet, because I don't know Jimmy's plans

If he decides another teammate (he is 1000% free to do it), I will make my own team

 

[Diehl]

So, boys, who need a second driver?

 

[kedy89]

@kedy89 up for another season?

Sure

Just the normal versions, ovals don't tend to work well with GP4

They kinda turn GP4 in a flight simulator

 

[oldwolf]

In

 

[Jimlaad43]

Same team and livery as last season @Manolis Sigoulakis

 

[Deleted member 161052]

And one more thing, guys...I'm NOT gonna underperform in this season, I'm going to score more points than before!
