Re: BATracer
This season may not end up going ahead as there is a minimum of 14 players needed for the '86 carset.
This is a cool spot.

Re: BATracer
Sorry, I think I'll have to miss the next season. I've sort of stopped doing BATracer for a while and I want to take a break for a bit.

I would, but I got sick of BATracer midway through last year.

Re: BATracer
I'm reviving this, because I want another F1Rejects season!
If we do, I call Red Bull. I'm sick of mid-field mediocrity, and the Mercedes didn't embarass me enough.

Re: BATracer
Oh god BATracer...I leave for a few days due to some family issues back home, and consequently get given a shite review by some arrogant teammate who clearly does sod all else in his life! Maybe just for F1Rejects if we can get some interest going, but otherwise that website can suck my...*ahem*...sorry rant over!

Re: BATracer
OK then:
Players will need to be registered and logged in before they can enter the private game. When logged in, clicking the following URL will take you to the join game page:
http://batracer.com/-cj?&D&61119
Alternatively, you can select "private games" from the menu and enter the number "61119" into the box. The game password is "HWNSNBM". Take care not to accidentally join a public game by mistake.
Remember, only join a team if you say so here. Otherwise, people get angry!

This isn't BATracer, but something similar. I first saw it on BATracer. It's called My Racing Career. You start in local F3, the goal being to reach F1 through feeder open-wheel categories, and eventual alternate paths such as DTM, IndyCar and NASCAR. Here's the link.

I saw that too. Sounds pretty good, actually. It just needs V8 Supercars and it'll be brilliant.

Re: BATracer
You know what? Let's try this again, except we'll gauge the interest before we blindly start a game. I've come up with a few ideas for Season 4 v2.0:
GP 2011 B-spec
The new version of GP 2011 has been out for a while, and would be the obvious choice for an F1 forum. Although working out the strategies requires a calculator 75% of the time.
Champion Cars v2.0
For this, we wouldn't allow teams to use a Reynard-Honda combination, but a Reynard-Ford or Lola-Honda would be fine. No two or three car teams (unless there is sufficient interest).
GP 2002
The 2002 season, recently re-released. Ferrari is fine, but I'll be making them muuuuuuuuuuuuuch slower. And more unreliable.
Classic 97
Whoever picks the Lola gets a massive speed boost!
Indy 500
Because why not?
Mid-Engined World Series
Because MR2s are awesome, and it's like the REECCS, but with Toyotas and less rolling.

Well, I wouldn't mind trying it this time, I think my break has been long enough. But I really cannot bring myself to have interest in an F1 carset. I'd either say Champion Cars or LMP2.

I might start one if we get a few more people interested (6 at best isn't going to be anywhere near enough), and since I'm off on holidays (and really should study for my SC tests), it'll probably a few more weeks before it'll start anyway.
