Oh btw, I noticed you are in other BTCC game, as an instructor, so I have now mighty opponent against me, should be fun as we are both in powerful cars in production series :thup:
The "instructor" thing is a little weird, everyone who has pro level and joins a "Academy" game, even if it's in mid-season automatically gets "instructor", so that's the fact why I am instructor in some games.

And now I'mtrying to get a world ranking, as thanks to all my AWOLs I'm at negative numbers. :( :cry:

EDIT: Woohoo! I just got pole in my first ever 2009 Indycar series qualifying! :joy: :-D

That pole position sounds very promising for you, Joe!! You really should put all your concentration on that Indycar game. We'll take care of this BTCC season so you don't need to worry. And then, when you have enough of the Indycars, you can come back here and we'll have fun together. :joy:

It seems like I did think it was Indycar and I was trying to use high speed through the corners, but managed to crash. :cry:

Well, I've been in this spot before and being able to get pass you before the finish. :-p

And now it seems that Try and Catch me going strong in the end of the season. :-o

And so after 19 races of the TBL Racing Season 4... We have a final race shootout for 1st place between Reger, Reynolds and Helmersson. Qualifying for the big race is now an even more important stage of the championship! That extra point could be so vital in the outcome of the championship and being at the start of the pack is of course a huge advantage down into that first corner.

Good luck guys, may the best of you win! Come on you Helmer! :-D

Yeah, it's like F1 back in 2007. McLarens vs. Raikkonen.

Good luck to you guys. May the best win!

Yeah, from my brief experiences, i've noticed if you have a good team-mate, you do better yourself.

In one of my public games i finished 8th in the championship and my team-mate never posted, even after repeatingly asking him too. But in my mid season game i finished 2nd in the championship and 2nd in the constructors and my team-mate was always there.

It's probably even better to work with someone that you know too.

Yep, as Getz has all his private spots filled at the moment, the only way to get more is to get KT.

And also we need to find more players, sure it was fun with 8 but I would like to see 10 or more joining in.
