We'll let our esteemed overlord figure that out.
Personally, I'm not too fussed as I'm on here far too often for it to affect me that much. Unless it opens at like 1am in the morning Sydney time. Then things get VERY interesting
Since my holidays are now over until November (or October if my contract isn't renewed) it is not a problem for me also. Besides I doubt many teams can afford the engines I am interested in.

And on that basis alone, I've just come to the conclusion that I should be far more worried about Sunshine in 2015 than first thought.
Especially considering I get the sneaking suspicion that you're aiming for the same engines that MRT are looking to use for 2015.

Market will open on Wednesday, at 11:00 PM; Spanish time.
A new thread for the 2015 season will be open by then, where you have to post.
One last novelty is that future upgrades have to be communicated to me via email; is left to you to decide if they have to be published as well or if we keep upgrades in secrecy.

Does anyone want to work out what that would be in everyone's timezone.

That'll be 8am on Thursday morning in Sydney, which would be 7:30am in your corner in the world if I've done my conversions right. In Eagleland and Canada, it'll be anywhere between 3 and 6pm on Wednesday afternoon depending on what part of the continent you're on.

Not bad then, I have an alarm clock so I should be fine. Also, make sure I have the email by then. And sorry for being impaitent.

10pm UK/Portugal time then. As long as I can pry my parents off the shared desktop this should work ok for me
BTW if anyone is looking to sell their current engine, PM me and perhaps we can come to some sort of deal...

I've just sent out your follow-up email and I've sent one to MinardiFan as well. I was planning on sending it at the end of the week but since Aerond had the market open far earlier than I expected, I kinda had to do it now anyway.

The time should be alright for me, it's what time I usually wake up (unless of course I do what I did today, and sleep after turning off my alarm). I've got a few preferences for engine/chassis set already as well...

They do apparentely. Bullsh*t. If you're in line with the United Kingdom, you should use WEST.

I should be making my decision on chassis and engine around 10:30 on Wednesday evening and I'm either going for a big engine and keeping the chassis or big chassis and keeping the engine. Difficult choice.

Indeed, I predict a clusterf*ck of epic proportions when the process is open. And, yes, I too am very nervous. I have a good chassis and the 2012 champ in one car, who knows what Aeroracing could achieve if we get hold of a good engine this year?

By the way; I have a new rule which I don´t think needs voting; as there´s a cap on top power, there should be a cap on low reliability to avoid any team buying all possible reliability and setting it at 0, making the car totally reliable. We should set a limit on this to 2000.

I will probably make no changes.
And if it is going to move into a new thread for next season, remove "onwards" from the title.
