Bugger, thought I'd set my driver to do good without me this race

 

How do I hire a 2nd driver???

[ScoobSTi]

Crap... forgot about this. :lol:

 

"First Gear Motorsports", my team is living up to its name. :p

We're not swapping to 2-car teams until the season is over. So you don't need to worry about it atm.

[Paladin Skylark]

I believe I'll be showing up to one of the upcoming races before the season ends. They're at 6:30 AM now instead of 5:30 which is better, I hope to see some of you there :D

[Guest MrLolololXD]

My dumbass driver ignored me, did one more lap than they were supposed to and then ran out of fuel in pitlane :@

 

I was doing so well until that happened, was looking at 2nd place ):

[Paladin Skylark]

I think I might show up to the finale - since it's not as early as it used to be thanks to DST. Anywho, I don't even think I prepared for that race and came in 7th so I call that a success.

[superhyper]

I prepared for the race and I wasn't last, I call that a success! :D

[ScoobSTi]

6th place, not bad for someone who always forgets about this. :p

[Ryzza5]

5 people showed up, 5 people finished on the lead lap, 5 people finished a lap behind, 1 person ran out of fuel, 1 person had to pit an extra time to add fuel, and 2 people retired with mechanical failures.

 

And I had had to change my strategy after the race started . All in all a good eventful race :)

 

 

Remember, if you don't do anything between races:

* Staff and drivers don't get trained or improve, more risk of mistakes in pit lane

* You probably will have to make an extra pit stop with 4 laps to go to add more fuel

* Your mechanical components will deteriorate and after a few races will fail resulting in a DNF

* You miss out on the chance to spy on other teams to accelerate design progress.

* You don't change the advanced settings that tell your driver what to do if it rains

* And of course you don't get to perform car setup

Just completely forgot about today's race, With it being the Easter long weekend, Back to my normal routine for next weekend though :)

[Ryzza5]

December 16 seems like ages away but now in 5 minutes the final race of Season One is about to begin. It's been an enjoyable Season guys!

[T3hReaper91]

Yeah has been a great season!

 

Ryzza has guaranteed win and i am Guaranteed 2nd.

 

When does the 2nd season start? And will it switch straight to 2 drivers at the end of the season?

[Guest MrLolololXD]

So what happens now? Do we stay in the same league and just have the time of races changed? Or move to a different league?

 

Personally I'd like 2 races per week now, even if I won't make it to them all. Season just gone went for quite a long time, plus I think people may be more inclined to remember about the races if there's 2 per week. I'd say Sunday and Wednesday for race days.

 

Or maybe even 3 races per week? The more races the better I say

[Ryzza5]

Absolutely fantastic race to finish off Season 1...

 

 

For winning the Drivers championship I have been awarded with a promo code for 1 months free iRacing for new member signups. I already have an active (but inactive) subscription so whoever wants it send me a PM.

 

 

I will start a new league (necessary to change to 2 cars) and you can all move across at will. Next week I'll delete the existing one. Do you want a week off or do you want to get right back into it next Sunday? If no-one objects I'll make it one hour later to cater for winding the clocks back here (almost timed that perfectly).

 

Please login - Join the new league now - first race is in 2 weeks

[Guest MrLolololXD]

If we kept the races at the same time they are now, wouldn't that be better for everyone? It's earlier for us in Aus, plus if iirc it's now an hour later in the morning for those in the UK and Europe

[T3hReaper91]

Bought my Second team into the league aswell to join Speed's 2nd team. Doubt they will live up to it though.

[ScoobSTi]

Got my team in and upgraded the office. Hopefully now we can design quickly. :)

[Paladin Skylark]

Well the races are at 6:30 for me, moving them will be 5:30. But I don't show up anyway because even 6:30 is too early for me when I go to sleep at 4 AM :p

 

I forgot about the last two races, I'm gonna write them down on my calendar now so I have a chance of the top 5 this season. (hopefully)

[Ryzza5]

Wouldn't it be 7.30? I've moved them to be an hour later.

[The Compensator]

I won't be in the next season as I'm always forgetting about it and to prepare the car.

[Ryzza5]

Have you considered setting a reminder? You can do it at any time during the week before the next race (takes 10 mins)? The forum calendar has a reminder that emails you if you subscribe to it an hour or so before race start as well. Your driver was actually doing quite well for parts of the last race.

[Paladin Skylark]

Oh yeah. Well whatever you wish Ry, I dunno if I'll make it to any of them but I'll certainly do the setup, etc.

Just hired my second driver. I'm ready to rock and roll.

[ScoobSTi]

Hired a second driver as well. :) Hopefully I can actually do well this season- this isn't a bad game!

I agree - hopefully someone stands a chance against Ry this season :P

[Ryzza5]

Well, there's always a chance. :)
