I've also advertised for Batracer and the clan in our group at Facebook, hopefully we can get more players from that. :)

Getz, Reynaldo is also going to make a logo/banner for the clan.
If you both do we could vote about which one to use. :thup:

I'm not taking time. It's just really poor and not worth showing. :oops: I'll pass the buck to Reynaldo on this one. :-D

Reynaldo isn't happy with his either...

Maybe we should go for something easier, anyone who has a idea what should be at our banner? :-?

And I who made a intentional error just to make so you didn't got on the podium, my plan was crushed. :-p

Well seriously, if I hadn't made that error I could have end up on the podium as well.

No, I'm not! I rock, just have bad luck in this season and I also think that it was you who "accidently leaked" oil in that turn so that I made that error! :-p

Finally I'm soon on positive numbers in my world ranking.
All those AWOLs gave me like 2000 in negative numbers, now I'm on -170.

I've been thinking for a long time now about what should be in a banner for the clan. :-k
But i have no idea how to connect hockey to racing. Does it really have to be a connection to hockey? :doh:


We could just brush a car shape or a globus (like we are international bunch of people).
And then write a short poem like: feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme, we won't throttle back, we are the blue line.. :oops:

It doesn't have to be something to do with hockey, a car in it would be great, why not use the Honda when they had a globe on their clan?

The rhyme should be "We will never die, we're TBL!"

But the banner is small so it may be hard to fit into both the car and the rhyme, why not just the rhyme?

Hey guys!

I have a question. :-o

As it's hard for us to get that 10th member to the clan from here, we maybe should consider taking in others, not many but those who makes requests to us to join. I just got one from a former teammate who's very good. He wrote this to me:
you haw a clan why you dont tell me? i can join
What do you guys say should I invite him so we finally gets active?

I know that there's some races left to do in the real name F1 season that we're doing and i know it's just season 1 out of 4-5, but i think that it is time to decide which series we will do for our season 5 as I think it's more fun with our own than that one.

Now that's we are 10 who are playing it opens up several new ones, not just MR2 and BTCC that we were able to do earlier.

The ones that we can do now is:
MR2 (minimum of 8 players)
BTCC (minimum of 8 players)
V8 Supercars 2006 (minimum of 10 players)
BAT Seven Challenge (minimum of 10 players)
F1 1997 (minimum of 10 players)
F1 1999 (minimum of 10 players)
F1 2002 (minimum of 10 players)
F1 2005 (minimum of 10 players)
F1 2006 (minimum of 10 players)
F1 2007 (minimum of 10 players)
F1 2008 (minimum of 10 players)
F1 2009 (minimum of 10 players)

I agree something like 97 or 99 would be cool. Im also fine with MR2, V8 or BAT Seven since Ive never been in any of those.

I think we should do 97 as well, there it's 5-6 teams that can win races, not like in 2009 where it's only 3, maybe more with much luck.

MR2, BAT and V8 doesn't have any car differeces as far as I know.

But Archie isn't able to join for a time, but as the series some of us is playing at the moment there's still some time before we can start season five. I hope we can start it some time during the summer. :thup:
