How time flies. Good to be finally getting somewhere!

Please, how will works the "Develop your own Engine"? How much HP and reliability?

For develop your own top I've set the BHP as just below Ferrari-Top but with a higher reliability rate

So we'll wait for other managers to apply to start the series.

My understanding was that we'd start once the drivers are finalised and if new managers sign up during the season, they take a team from someone with two. Looks like Super Aguri/Toro Rosso will be managed by one person with BMW being managed by another (I'm happy to do it if people agree) as Buttonfan doesn't appear to be active. He hasn't logged on since the 17th

On a brighter note, I now have driver interest from ten of the eleven teams with very minimal driver clashes I've pmed those likely to be involved in an auction

if the only remaining team is buttonfan, shall we just move on?

I've picked a team for BMW using drivers that haven't been selected should Buttonfan not meet the deadline in 6 hours time. There are only 3 drivers with auctions required so hopefully we won't have to wait too long to get going.

Maybe one of the curret managers should be allowed to swap to bmw? I mean, its the 3rd best team :p

I do actually think that I'll manage two teams Toro Rosso/Super Aguri so I'm pretty clear that I should run these two teams.

Buttonfan20 isn't pretty much active, so I guess BMW needs a new manager and it's 3rd best team at the moment.

Maybe an option could be for you to pass one of your teams on and take over BMW. That way you don't have the two worst teams

Also once the deadline has been hit would you like me to post the completed teams so far or wait until they're all completed?

I'd like to see the completed teams so far, so we don't want to regret waiting so much to start this series.

Edited the previous post with the updated line up. Just waiting on Mclaren now then we'll be good to go. All the drivers, helmets and performance for the current line up are in game.

oh wait, this is based on the 2006 season? I only just realised when you posted the colours xD

As if you've only just realised haha!! Early tests on the mod make it look like it's going to be an interesting season!

yeah, I thought it was 2007 for 3 reasons
1) The other F1 manager was 2007
2) The budgets pretty much nearly replicated the irl performances from 2007
3) I didn't notice the year and I didn't notice the other teams' names (Super Aguri, MF1)

This makes it a whole lot more interesting tho, I'm pretty hyped to see where my team stands compared to Ferrari and McLaren

To be honest, the actual year itself doesn't have much bearing on the series. It's all about the selections. Ferrari and Renault will be strong for sure, I'd imagine Toyota and BMW will be challenging for points most races.

Here's some random images from the mod so far

The race drivers mod is now complete. Just waiting on bids on one test driver.

Can you clear some space please pal

Interesting that BMW Sauber, Renault and Toyota don't go for their own engines!

edit: my Driver 1 bid is actially in progress
