That start reminds me of the Rangers start into the season. How long will "Team Spirit" have that luck? :-k

Haha. Is anybody interested in joining a public game on the same team? I want to play more often to get better (of course). If anyone is interested, let me know, it would be F1 2008 and a choice of teams are available, gotta be quick though. :thup:

I have no free public slot at the moment. But maybe some of the others are interested?

Getz, you could also join a midseason game. There are always a lot of spots available.

Hmm... I wanted to start from the beginning rather than mid-season. I'll wait to see if anyone is interested, if not, i'll start with a randomer. :-D

Bah I was awful[i/]! It's my own fault; I completely messed up my car settings as I forgot we were racing on the same track as last time! :-D

Maybe next race I won't be so far behind... Or maybe I will...

I wish you good luck in your Honda in F1 2008 game Getz, it's a card that's hard to get success with, but with a good teammate and luck you can get some points, especially in Academy games. :thup:

I play a mid-season pro level f1 2008 as Force India, my team got 13 points and Honda got 3 points and the leader in teams Ferrari got 130 points, but in Academy games you can win in a Force India, well maybe in a Red Bull or Honda. :-D

Haha, well when i signed up it stated that in Academy games, the cars had been altered to make it more even and that i shouldn't be worried about joining a rubbish team! In the first warm-up, my team-mate is 4th and I am 7th. There is a Ferrari at the back of the pile. So that could be a good sign. :-D

A bad qualifying for Team Spirit. But there is an explanation for it: Someone stole our tyres. So we had to carry our Protons pick-a-bag style into the finish. :-o Got extra muscles now, so watch out for us in the race!! ;)

And Timura takes the pole, and Timura sights first win in his career, and hopefully a 1-2 for Try and Catch me RC. :-D

Doh I've really messed up this race (and it's my home race too). :-x My bro left me in charge of his account whilst he is away this weekend, but I forgot to logon yesterday so we both missed the practice. Now today, when I was doing the warmup for my brother's car, when I loaded my setup into his, I forgot to change the experimentation back down to 70 (it was at 100) so he crashed on his first lap and lost all remaining ones. So this isn't going to be a good race for either of us ](*,)

Be careful not to multiaccount, Archibalduk. [-X
If you login for both accounts at the same time you'll get a black flag or get banned. :-(

Yeah, that multiaccounting happened to me when we were doing seasons earlier when I also managed my brother's account, so that is why we got inactive in earlier games. :thdn:

Now it's little more than 20 minutes left, good luck all and have a nice fight for the second spot. :-p
