I've contacted Tyler, he was pretty ecstatic about it and immediately accepted the offer. I'll try and see if I can get a few words out of him soon. Actual coherent ones, I mean. Can't blame him for not being able to say much at this time - he'd been anxiously waiting for an offer for a while now.

There we go.

I'll be visiting the guys at the factory soon, and I hope I'll be able to help them develop and shape the car into a strong competitor. I'm sure me and Roland will have a strong relationship as teammates. I've heard great things about him and his performances in the lower leagues, so facing him will be quite a challenge. It all remains to be seen, though. For the moment, I'm just happy to be here.

I'll try and work on his character page soon. It's all still a bit confusing, seeing as I haven't roleplayed all that much before, but it should be good. Also, another question - can I actually have two different characters? And on two different teams? Or am I stuck with only my initial character now? Just asking because I have a good few ideas going through my head right now.

The limitations for the three RWRS series are a total of 5 drivers over all three series, and 1 team per series, so you could potentially have another 4 in total if you wanted!
Don't worry too much about all the RP-ing - some are into it a bit more than others. All that's really necessary for a member such as you just controlling drivers is a few soundbites every now and then around each race weekend. We've got a little bit of a wait on our hands at the moment whilst Aerond finishes off the last few races of the 2014 F1RWRS season, and once that's done, the 2015 season will begin in earnest!

Sounds good to me. And hey, the RPing would just help me get "into" it a little better, is all. I'm sure Tyler would enjoy it as well.
Eh, considering there are still other drivers "in it to win it", I'll just stick with Tyler for the time being.

Since there are a few free F3RWRS spots left, I repeat my offer for two drivers which are supported by Kay Lon's "Best In The World" brand and have a bit of personal sponsorship/funding:
Anita Horford (born 29 November 1982 in Spring Bluff, Georgia, USA), finished 2nd in last years' F2000 Championship Series season after winning the same series in 2013.
Chacko Palaniappan (born 23 March 1990 in Nelliyalam, Tamil Nadu, India), finished 19th in last years' IndyCar Series season after a 3rd place in the 2013 Indy Light season.

ZimSport-Rosenforth today announced their second driver to partner Ryan Zimmer in the 2015 F3RWRS season. Aussie Daniel Melville has been hired to replace Carter Simpson, who has moved up to the F2RWRS. Melville, it is understood, is good friends with F1RWRS drivers Rhys Davies and Daniel Melrose, which mya have potentially helped him gain the seat. Melville has previously only raced in Australia, but has been competitive in every car he's driven.

I am willing to make a deal with you here.
OPTION ONEI will loan you Lorenzo Crescenzi (who has a couple of podiums to his name from last season if I remember correctly) on the following conditions;
- You take full ownership of Ragnar Larsen and loan him back to me for the 2015 F3RWRS season
- Prospec sign a 3 year contract
beginning from 2016 tying them down to using Lancia engines in F3RWRS, which if negated will trigger a penalty to be decided by the F3RWRS commission before the contract is penned
OPTION TWOYou can have Ragnar Larsen, as your own driver under your ownership, he's free. But I'm already one over my driver limit as it is so I can't 'loan' him to you. This comes with a 2 year Lancia contract
beginning in 2016.
If you've forgotten what each driver has, here's a brief reminder;
Lorenzo Crescenzi2014 // F3RWRS // Christopherson Racing
Ragnar Larsen2014 // F3RWRS // RonDen Racing Engineering
2014 // RoLFS // Parma Corse

OK, Prospec will make a formal announcement about their driver lineup in exactly one week's time (real time!) based on the proposals received within that timeframe.
Aside from Greenlaw, and those proposed by Kostas and This, I would like to hear from Jack Christopherson Jr., Joao Antonio Soares and Roberto Zayas. I reiterate though that if I don't hear by this time next week I'll go with one of the proposals on the table.

I have several other drivers in line so you can have Dan Greenlaw if you would like. Prospec will have to cede negotiation priority to MRT past F2RWRS as he is in their development stable. If MRT is full, ARC and Prospec can bid for his services.

If you're not fussy about nationality, then the same two contract options offered to Prospec are also on the table for Kingfisher Junior.

Josh Carlisle may be interested in either team, depending on the future of SuperAguri's Falik Arrows entry. He comes with experience of both RoLFS and F3RWRS from 2014. This however does depend on whether SuperAguri makes himself known in time for next season.

According to a corporate statement, the Best In The World brand has bought out the Nigerian team and will start in the 2015 F3RWRS season as Best In The World Motorsport. The site confirmed that 75 % of the staff will be retained, interestingly including the management team which caused the debt in the first place. However, they will be placed under the command of Colin Kolles.
On a sportive note, the team has decided to purchase the Mugen-Honda MF315 engine and are looking to either purchase a Dofasco GS001 or a Jones JR-301 chassis, depending on which side will offer a better purchase. Later that day, Kay Lon confirmed on his Twitter account that the daughter of former Alfa Romeo driver and Indy 500 winner Roberto Horford, Anita Horford, will be one of the drivers for the team. This leaves one seat left open although Kay Lon is, according to insiders, already looking at a specific driver for this team.

Zytek have had a long meeting with BITWM after the sale of the Falik Arrows Jr team, they point out that FAJ had a two year contract to use the Zytek Chassis and engine and have pointed that the contract does not end due to the sale of the team and have threatened legal action if BITWM do not use the Zytek chassis and engine for the 2015 and 2016 seasons. Zytek made a statement saying "Falik Arrows Jr owe us $150,000 for the developement of the chassis and engine and need to pay us $400,000 over the next two years, however a clause states that if they do not use the chassis or engine then we are entitled to a $1.5m payout. As Falik Arrows Jr sold the team including debts to Best in the World Motorsport then we feel that they should use the bespoke chassis and engine that we have developed. If they do not then we shall have to take legal action against Prince Falik and Best in the World Motorsport.". Best in the world motorsport declined to comment as they were looking at their options.
