Shadow seem to be making a good car, that however suits your teammate a little more.
The fact they chose him to be in dry session proves it's a conspiracy to favour John

I need the following helmets please.
Keeley Grant, Matt Houston, Jorge Caranti, Matti Smith and Stuart Ingers.
Keeley and Matt were in the W300/WGP so if anyone has those mods can they extract the helmets and send to me please. I had them but don't know where they've gone since a re-installation.

[www.mediafire.com] Some say you should click it, you know you want to. [www.gp4central.com] <----GP4 Central

Someone has put a brick on the wrong side of the gas pedal. I couldnt go flat out !! One who could tho was Kevin. Kevin you did a fine job once again while getting used to the team. :D

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If in doubt, Flat out."

Oh btw bout the friday tests,, I think it would be fine to start with 9 drivers. During the season there are always people coming to take a look and say ey i wanna get into this ! Then they could join. if one of the remaining teams give someone a seat.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If in doubt, Flat out."

So, I'm ill for a day, and I get 3 pages to read lol.

Good showing from the Phoenix lads at Indy, well done guys. Mal, I'll get you POhoenix's car soon,I'm still not very well, so it won't be too soon.

DRIVER'S SEASON 2 QUALY EFFORT TO BE REFLECTED IN PERFOMANCE FILE

Jan,8th - Yesterday in a late night meeting of GPGSL governing's body its members Nick Van Der Voort, Mal Stoddart and Marko Aleksander discussed the new idea how to better reward driver's qualifiying efforts in season 2009.
Proposed idea is to bring more realism into the series, so that "Jarno Trullis" of GPGSL would have better qualy pace, and in theory slower race pace and opposite.
It will affect only drivers qualifying points in perfomance file in season 2009, not championship points. The official starter perfomance file of season 2 stays the same, changes of the rule will take place in race weekends of season 2, but will as we said only affect qualy perf points, race perfomance points system stays the same.
Idea was taken with enthusiasm and unaninomusly accepted with all three members approving it. Details will be announced later by GPSLRS,so stay tuned.

Mal, I sent my helmet to Monil a couple of days ago.

you probably should send it again, to mal this time. his address is in the first post

X (@ed24f1)

Quick note on the tester series, if there are still spots left, I would like to add myself to any provisional list if possible, please!


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

Danm, what to do with the test series will be discussed with fellow GPGSLRS members Nick and Mal when they come online and we should finalize, decide and propose things soon. The series may or may not take place, it's likely that it will though, but not sure.
But signing up won't hurt either way, actually the more the better. Altough keep in mind in theory it may even not happen as nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
