Hence my immediate retirement from this series.

33 1/3. What's wrong with that?

I thought, he might be talking about showing it as a single character, like ½ and ¼. Trying to do the same with 1/3 throws up an SQL error.

dr-baker wrote:Oh, OK. Any reason why? (And how do you get the characters like that? If I try in Microsoft Word, it just converts what I type into a single character automatically, if I remember correctly.)

This wrote:I don't know, i can write ½, but when i get 1/3 i get an error message, every time again

and you can find it in word by 'add symbol' there you will defenitely find it.

It needs to be in one symbol, anybody who knows this driver will understand why

Like I said, it's most likely the board's code doesn't support that character.Not that it should prevent the car having 1/3 on it, though I doubt it'll appear on the results sheet.

Marlboro Scuderia Politalia-Fiat powered by Agip wrote:Marlboro Scuderia Politalia-Fiat powered by Agip enters REECS

The Scuderia Politalia is proud to announce its program for the next REECS season. Thanks to continuous support by our sponsors Agip, Marlboro and Gazprom, we can expand our team from one to three cars. Ferdinando Blaszikowski and Jacek Piscopo will return to the series. Another car will be entered for Ruby the...er...friend of former Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi. Scuderia Politalia wants to do something for women in motorsport, and we are confident that Ruby will make a good figure in the series. Let's hope that the next season will be successful for us.

Scuderia Alitalia have surprised many by making a sudden change of manufacturer. The FIAT Group has involvement in both Polski-Fiat and AvtoVAZ, and while they used the Polski-Fiat 126R last year, and intended to do so this season, the heads at Alitalia have decided to drop the compact 126R for the more stable Lada 2101.

"We decided the Polski-Fiat was rubbish...I mean, not the best use of our marketing resources," said Zoran Stefanovic, REECCS Team Principal for Scuderia Alitalia. "Fiat is looking to become more involved in the AvtoVAZ Group once again after stepping back for a while, therefore this switch makes economic sense for us. Also, it was much faster than that crappy 126 so hopefully we might win something."

Scuderia Alitalia has indicated an all new livery will be released soon.

Sure.

Would you mind changing the HRT liveried car to number 2, as Senreson already uses 22 and I don't think that Kay Lon will be racing in the #2 Trabant this season.

The Generic Times wrote:Scuderia Alitalia adds third car for Academy drivers
After recently making the switch to Lada in the REECCS, Alitalia have announced yet another change, this time by adding a third car.

The existing #51 car will be run under a seperate name, Zenit Corse, signifying it is part of the squad's young driver programme. The car's programme will be split between youngsters Marcel Agyemang-Badu and Andraž Velikonja.

Badu will contest the first five rounds (Birmingham to Monaco), before stepping aside for Velikonja. Badu will return to the #51 car at Norisring, and remain there for the rest of the season.

The change to Zenit Corse means Carsten Jancker's Scuderia Alitalia entry has been changed to become #47.
