My Impressions of RD so far.

Walter Johnson · Aug 26, 2009

I am very impressed with this website there is a lot of leagues to enter and from the videos I have seen on RDTV they are relatively clean with no one wrecking except from a few racing incidents. There is also alot of really helpful people who are always on hand to help the old man out.

I would like to know if any leagues are open for a new racer as I applied to race in the Chevrolet Camaro Cup but the league had finished.
Could somebody please give me advice to me on a league to enter as would very much like to begin my racing career started here on RaceDepartment.
Regards Walter.

GTL is about £6-£10 nowadays, and worth every penny.

I got mine for £3.50 including delivery off of Ebay.

Indeed, i bought it too from ebay. Around 6 euros it was. Loved it ever since!

Walter, i entered around april of this year on this site/forum.
I entered the RDHGP as that league was just going to start back then.
The cars weren't easy to race with but the community in here made sure i did'nt need to worry. And race by race i learned alot, and with the final races i was suddenly quite competitive. And this was all surrounded with the chilly gentleman style of helping people and having honest fights. GTL is great for that, because the cars are older, feel a bit slower and bigger to drive. That way you can see more what's happening around you too.

It's a great entrance to a community. And i naturally discovered the other parts off the forum pretty quickly while enjoying that league.

And suddenly the options are endless.

Yuh agree with what the guys are saying Walter, the racing club is different to any public server you have raced on before, because they arent actually any wreckers (well purposeful wreckers anyway :wink

Even get a mic and pop onto TS when the club races are on, thats always great fun (Just dont ask how much fuel you need for the race :angry: :lol

I think Walter is from Michelin and is forming his opinion about communities and will reward us (and other communities) with some stars when his research is completed

Bert Van Waes · Aug 30, 2009

Well, i know i would give this place a minimum off 10 michelin stars...:glasses-cool:

Unfortunatly I am not from Michelin so I am not reserching or forming opinions on this website all I want to do is join a race leauge (after I have done some club races as I have been advised to) of course, and I will also join some races soon.

I am sorry I didn't see the humour in your post but these computers aren't the best at showing emotions.

That's because you're from North Cumbria and not the South

Ahh..Richard Whitley God rest his soul. I havnt missed an episode of Countdown in five years. To be compared to him is a true complement. Thanks.

Walter

When are you going to race with us? and what Game will it be with?

Walter Johnson · Sep 11, 2009

Sorry I havent been talking alot but as I am a farmer I need work for long hours. As for racing with you, I have just received my new G25 steering wheel so I will begin racing in the Foreseeable Future I just needed to get used to to imense force feedback on the wheel. I highly recommend anyone looking for a new wheel i highly recomend a G25.
