If noone takes it, I'll disable the team via numcars and wel'll have a 21 cars grid.

Perf points go with a manager as well, as far as the rules state.....
And, re the possibilty of a 21 car field, ALSO in the rules, how about asking the current entrants if they wish to run a 2nd entry pending a new manager entering the series....

It seems the best option.

Well, i dont personally care about having 21 or 22 cars in the field. But with the negative thought on having a manager having a 2nd team, might pay to re-write the rules of this series then.....

GPGSL Test Debut - Hungary, Season 4. GPGSL Race Debut - Adelaide, Season 5.

I think I haven't had a proper look at the rules since I joined back in season 2 xD
Wasn't even aware of the 2nd team thingy, but imo that rule should be scrapped. If you give him same boost as for his main team he can max one team each race. If the boost request will be same for both teams it doubles the chances of winning. etc. Don't think this is any good.
Also don't want to leave the team of the kicked manager in, even with reduced perfs. Set them too low and it'll have an influence on the other cars during quali/race. What if by some chance (crazy race like) the team ends up in the points? Imo it'd suck to be beaten by a team of a kicked manager.
Adding [Vacancies] to the header should make it clear that there's a spot to fill.
While we're at it, regarding quali. I think it's enough to just post the result screen, as usually everyone gets some airtime during the race. Would help to reduce workload for the RDs.

Well if you guys are in desperate need of a new team then I'd happily re-add Team England to the mix. Can always reuse the livery from Team UK from season 4 until I can put a livery together. (nevermind, forgot you've switched to the CART shape now 
) I'll get to work

Yeah the rules need a tweaking, I'm with Tobi. What if a ghost team ends up in the points (or worse, wins!)
If there is a possibility to disable said team, then I'm for that option. But I believe we have found a backup 22nd entrant
I agree with the qualy screenshot being enough, maybe a little build up can be done, top 3 in screenshots? (wouldn't needed to be a screen of the actual laptime). Or build up the 22nd to 1st with a side shot from the cars like in my sig, followed by results screen?
If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!

A ghost team, even with reduced perf, has the potential to affect the race. What if it causes an accident with someone in the points?
Rules updated
Regarding your quali suggestions Maikel, I've not included it for now, left it optional. The latter would require gridcars to be made with zmodeler, pictures uploaded with access for everyone. Could be done, but right now I don't want to do any extra work.
I've also thought of a possible adjustment to the boost system, seeing that one of the latest gpxpatch updates allows car specific BHP values. Not much thought put into it yet (as to how many per season/race etc.), just a vague idea. Any thoughts/feedback on that is welcome.
Any complaints regarding the rule changes please let me know.

Quote
The Teams
[...]
-Interested new entrants will be placed on the waiting list if there are no vacancies.
-If there's a vacancy and noone to fill the seat, numcars.ini will be used to reduce the grid-size until a new team enters.
Liveries
[...]
-Textures have to be sent in .psd format.
-Teams on the waiting list have to prepare textures in case of promotion. If no textures are sent/available when promoted, entry will be denied and the team is moved to the end of the waiting list. The slot will be given to the next one in line.
Race Weekend
-Qualifying shall be 30 minutes in length, 22 cars on the track, 4 laps of fuel per stint with a maximum of 16 laps. Qualy coverage is optional, results screen is enough.

No problem, it were mere suggestions Maybe I can cook up those gridcar images in the coming weeks and prepare it in that way. We'll see how it goes, I'm happy either way.
Rules changes overall seem good.
Regarding the boost system, we can look into what we can do. However the current system isn't half bad! Let's discuss this and implement no earlier then next season imo
If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!

Team China
We are most happy with having increased our lead in the standings. Now it seems more likely that Brazil will need to worry about holding onto 2nd instead of trying to chase us down, so that should help us in the short term.
