I'd have thought that the majority of teams have already got their new car (including BAR), so why has everyone suffered an extra loss of money. :|


Because the teams usually have to pay to replace the old chassis with the new ones. However, this should usually cost about $1 million at most. :?

EDIT: NUPPIZ! Explain this bathpluggery because this is far more expensive than it should be :|

Wut? I can't really explain because even I don't have a good idea which could've caused such a budget drainage. Other than engines, but some of you got them for free anyway... Bear in mind that besides Ferrari and Jaguar, only Williams and Jordan had over 10 million in the bank anyway (with Jordan being just 18k over that).

I also need the savegame so that I can change the things requested (mostly just changing Ansimov to Super Aguri and changing their engines to Honda).

You'll also need to change Jaguar's name to whatever Lappy wants it to be (Probably Rosenforth or something along those lines)

Too long, it has to be as long as or shorter than the current name, so Lappy only has six characters of space for his team!

Yeah, it'll be Rosenforth, but just shorten it to R-Forth or RFEF1 or something similar, we'll know it's Rosenforth anyway ;)

Does GPM2 gave end-of-season bonuses for teams? If so, for whom it would be given? :?

As much as I love reading the Chairman game thread, we really need to get the ball for 2004 rolling so we can have another soundbyte from Don Rennis :lol:

Didn't Shadaza say that this one was all bathplugged up with bugs or something like that?

I think so. Surprisingly enough a game that has been designed for a maximum of four human players doesn't like when it's forced to run with all 13 teams controlled by a human! :lol:

Apparently this was really time consuming to run.
