I would love to get a seat if a team will have me. Are sign ups closed or is there still a chance?

I'm no alien but have tons of time on this circuit and will hand over an in tact car to the next driver. I am from US (GMT -5), and speak english and spanish. Racing in ATCC4 now.

Peter, please do not comment on a situation you have little or no insight in. I'd also recommend you to get your facts straight.

George was in large part responsible for the improvements made in season 3, but at least he was modest enough to see that he's far from the only factor in the success of RDLMS. Additionally the contact with Simrace.tv is older than George's involvement in RDLMS.

I agree that George is a great league organiser and it's a shame for RD that his abilities no longer benefit this particular community. A pity he left, but I understand his decision.

i would be happy to accept you into my team mate if you like we are driving porsche 996 GT2

send me a pm and we will meet on the track for practice if all goes well

regards

Wayne Reed · Feb 19, 2012

I am with Peter on this apart from the sim race tv as that was put in in S2.

I do know all the facts but will not post any of them.

I am sitting watching and waiting with this I cant but help feel let down by all of this and as such i will have to think long and hard about if my team will run in this event.

As I have seen on Rd of late and herd off of other staff members Rd is really slidding at the momenet there are not many staff about at the best of times. And dont come out with the site is being moved its not that hard to do.

You always ask Rd members to help where we can and most of us are happy to do so. So why cant you do us a faver and stop looking at us as kids and tell us what is going on.

I also think this is rude tbh "his abilities no longer benefit this particular community"

If you do not like my post then fine ban me but at least i have had my say.

Yoeri Gijsen · Feb 19, 2012

Wayne, you too, don't know all the facts.

When I said "his abilities no longer benefit this particular community" I meant that since he no longer is staff, RD cannot profit from his knowlegde and experience. Maybe I phrased that awkwardly.

Anyway, whatever happened behind the scenes is our business. Nothing of that ahs only place in this thread.

George Talbot · Feb 19, 2012

Guys, best to let it go. Just wait and see what happens, I am sure RD have something up their sleeves and an announcement will hopefully be made soon.

Richard Blokker · Feb 20, 2012

what is going wrong? Can anyone check the server log for me?
Tonight, every lap that i would finish and to set a time i get a disconnect? Nobody is joining at the same time? 3 times i a row tonight.
Join server, first lap an short cut, second lap around the track and direct after the finishline i get a disconnect?

How's it working for you today? Never heard of this problem, neither could I find some useful info scoping the web for a while. Have you tried to not do the shortcut? Or it can be purely coincidental?

Last time I checked there's a server up named 'RACEDEPARTMENT RD24HR DAY'.

Got it, thanks!

rFactor's alphabetical sorting is nonsense!
