Seeing as it has seemingly slipped under my radar...............

Congratulations to Spanner who has become Race07 Director 

Welcome to the trials and tribulations of League creating.

Now all you have to do is please all of the people, all of the time.

Good luck 

[goldtop]

I really should have announced this shouldn't I 

I'm pleased to hear you've taken on the mantle Spanner and that we can all look forward to more Race07/Evo events. I'm happy to help out in any way I can, as I know others will be too.

Once again, congratulations and I wish you all the best with it.

huh?!...lol, is this the same spanner who is seemingly negative about GTR-Evo ?     As for GTsimracing...it was pretty much all we raced here up until iR reared its ugly head 

and yes legz i was one of the not that impressed brigade early on with Race. I never tried evo as i foolishly relied on someones comments about it on here and missed out on a year or so's good racing with it. It may be my newer rig also having something to do with it also, as to me it just looks stunning in full detail & shadows etc...especially compared to....well you know the rest  oh and did i say the ffb is also much better? 

[Legzy]

oh and did i say the ffb is also much better? 

Really?

Thanks guys, will take me a little while to work out the organisational side of things but please bare with me.

MJ, thats Race 07...not GTRevo lol. Personally, i prefer GTR2 to Evo, but i do enjoy, along with many people, the Touring cars and with Goldtop not able to enjoy them i thought i'd pick up the mantle.

Knowing there are others far more vocal about Evo than i (every other post!), I thought i should plan to run a series of Evo races as well which we had started doing on wednesdays anyway to try and please others and alow them to enjoy evo (take note). I had originally planned for one long wtcc type series.

You know MJ rather than moaning about what others are organising maybe you put you hat in the ring.

[Mark J]

your the one bleeding moaning mate, all i do is say how good GTRevo is !  your like a flipping troll following my posts around. Why the hell are you and legz even posting in this thread if you have no intention of racing over at RD ?..other than to troll that is 

Anyway, had a great GT club race with my new european buddies over at RD  ...except in the 2nd race where some guy managed to nerf me 3 times Tough close racing with 16+ evenly matched cars

22 drivers already lined up for a race at Valencia this evening using the new BMW M3 GT2 from the GTpower update, if anyone wants to race their new toy

the new M3 GT2 is good car to drive and the sound is very cool too, i like it.
i was yesterday in this RD race, but short before race did start, i had to leave server (wife was comeing home to early )
quali laptimes was very close, can be good races with this car perhaps.

[Mark J]

Im waiting for a zonda race 

[Mark J]

anyone fancy it?  I might enter as a single driver, though if TT or anyone fancies making a team up?

5 90min races running on a monday night using the BMW M3 GT2 car. They had 62 drivers last time..already 51 signed up this time!

[Truetom]

I can do Mondays, though one series car seems a boring. Can you find the way to get us on a list?

P.S. MJ, if you would be my teamie, don't you think you should embrace me as a (Steam) friend first?

true, i would rather it was a pure GT class with different makes, but should imagine a one make series using a good car will make for some excellent close racing as well as its endurance factor with the 90mins. Some nice tracks too. 
Exciting looking series, will add us both then TT as a team 

Thinking along lines of also promoting this site, would anyone be prepared to knock up a simple legends skin (blue&orange) for me and TT with some nice prominent Simracing.org.uk logos on ?

Re: steam, thought i had already accepted your invite as friend?

[Mark J]

yep checked, you already on my friends list TT 

No worry about the skin, simbin havent released the template for the new BMW anyway 

me and TT are added as the Legends team. Anyone else up for it? 57 entries already! should make for excellent close GT racing action and its on a monday night which doesnt clash with any Srouk events. 

[goldtop]

As you've mentioned steam. I'm sick of having messages pop up as invites to be a friend at steam every time I log on to my computer. I'm a member of the communities I wish to be a member of and don't wish to be a member of some faceless organisation like steam. No offence to anyone who's invited me, but I don't do friends  

Well that's my Monday morning rant out of the way....I'm back at work tomorrow so can direct my rants at the usual audience  

[Wiltshire Tony]

I don't get invites 

But then my Race 07 has stopped working since the last update and so far nothing back from steam support.
