I'll put you in for now. Easier to ask forgiveness than to get permission.

Well, we don't quite have the number of players I was hoping for, but I will have to close the doors before too long. Probably by the end of the week. If you can, please help recruit some new players to your teams.

McLaren and Williams are both full. Lotus has 2, and Brabham and Ferrari are just one for the moment.

Might it be worth dropping teams down to only 2 drivers each then, as we don't have the right number for equal teams of 3 drivers.

I have been consider it. The Team Endurance Race would have to be either 2 rounds or 4 rounds. Thoughts?

I personally think sprint and the newly modified feature races could be enough.

@Jimlaad43 has a good thing going with the Team event, and I really want to capitalize on the idea. Endurance Race will remain, but I may have to modify the format. Either chose to have only two rounds or have each driver go twice.

If we are set on having 10 players, then we will have to break up McLaren and Williams. Find two more drivers, then I'll ask Oorjit, Mark, Omer, and Hugo to work out how to make up only two teams.

Can count me in

I don’t mind which team

rubaru · Apr 30, 2019

Would anyone like to sign Andy onto their team? I think the preference would be for Andy, Oorjit, or Mark to join Lotus, and find one more player for the remaining two.

Andy ? Don't you mean "Daniel" ^^ ?

Is that his name? Ok.

oorjit07 · May 3, 2019

Yeah I'll move over to the Ferrari if that's fine with you @Márk Lintner.

Ok...Moved @oorjit07 to Ferrari, now only have one empty seat. If you and @Márk Lintner are not opposed to it, I can let you run the Endurance Race as a two-man team. Just need to have one of you run the 1st and 3rd leg.

----------------------------------

In the mean time!!

Is everyone clear on the rules? Any questions or clarifications or complaints? Otherwise, I'd like to start the first of three test races sometime over the weekend.

@Márk Lintner @oorjit07 @rubaru Hey guys, can I join Ferrari? If you want third driver and it is not to late...

I just realized I didn't answer to tags here, sorry for that.

I'm just going to put you there since that's the only open spot at the moment. If anyone else joins, they will have to be solo on one of the other teams.

The Calendar has been uploaded to the first page. Everyone should have a home race.

Jimlaad43 · May 3, 2019

Hahaha, I've got a friend from Uni who's raced at Kari Motor Speedway and he has nothing but bad things to say about it

. At least I'll have had some pre-race preparation for that round

rubaru · May 3, 2019

Alright everybody!!

The Calendar posted. Four teams of three drivers are on the grid. Let's make this official.

The countdown starts NOW for the first test race of the season! Good luck to everyone!!

I've raced there too! It's part of the reason I chose it as a home round, but yeah, especially in karts, it was basically a mission to the death. Oh @Sasha Jednak welcome to the team!
