Fulvio, I don't think you are over rated.
Your 30 token rating is based upon your success in the fun races, and the fact that you are a very quick driver as well.
With the slightly different format in the GT races for season 21, someone with your ability to get their car to the finish and in a probably scoring good points as well makes you a valuable driver for any team.
Each driver in a team will have to drive all 3 cars and "experience" in finishing races will be very important.

I guess drivers token cost is not base just on raw speed, but on overall performance - consistency, reliability, speed. On the other hand, cars seem to be based completely on speed only, mostly engine power in fact.

Evil's extreme sideways driving style carries a huge risk which logically lowers his token value.  |

Without asking UKGPL for a permission?  I guess we should skip him and move onto the next one! |

Well, I think we can wait for a week to pick teams if we need to.

Team captain, MOI? Whats going on  Its a bit more responsibility than I envisioned in my early GT career but I'm willing to give it a go. I give prior notice though that the Orange team will not be an autocracy, and I will anxiously await advice from the team members that I pick- but who though? Paul [BadBlood] is my first choice. An easy choice because I can measure myself against someone of similar ability  . And I would like to invite Tim [FMG] into the fast chair. I'm not sure what your experience is in these beasts, but you do have some speed in your belly that we may well need. If you two are happy to be part of the Orange threat then welcome- and please PM me with whatever thoughts you have. |

You can only choose one driver right now and only when it's your turn to choose, so be patient. |

So, Mr Thornton is neglecting his captain's duties by taking a holiday ................... how inconvenient!!! lol ,maybe we should draw a replacement captain just to allow the team selection to continue? or we wait until Phil returns? If I am underrated Fulvio, it is because I am too modest to give myself a top rank in GT's. Seriously, my performance in the recent fun series was NOT good. I managed one or two good races, but I still have not had the time to properly understand the GT cars and how to drive them. The Porsche is OK because it is an absolutely fantastic car and anyone can drive that well!! but I really struggle to keep the other cars under control at racing speed. The Captains were picked scientifically by putting all the names into a dish on small pieces of paper and drawing 4 names out.. and your name was one of those Nigel. I hate to throw cold water on your enthusiastic naming of team members, but you are only allowed to select one at a time from the list of those registered. Team members are picked in rotation as per the order in the post above. |

So, Mr Thornton is neglecting his captain's duties by taking a holiday ................... I agree it is outrageous - first he retires from his modding duties and now he thinks he is allowed to take a holiday  He's back on Sunday 24 April - I'd suggest you go for a temporary stand-in to keep the selection going, I'm sure he'll live with that |

At least we'll save some time that way. Hope he doesn't mind of course! |
