None taken. Buthis is F1 Rejects, right? And my art skills are genuinely at that level...
At least it matches the team's (2014) F1RWRS livery. 
Looks like it'll be a livery I'm going to stick with.

Could we get a list of the cars that are yet to be painted and the requirements for those cars?

Just start this thing immediately, make the unpainted cars blank with team name and team number, as well as Powered by Lotus logo.

Right, that's the (first and) last time I set up a second account, only to let somebody else take it over! My drivers in last and penultimate places! More than 4 seconds off the place! Well, really... Antepenultimate and preantepenultimate wouldn't have been as bad.

The Parma Corse cars have slipped even further down the order!! 
Also, you should probably start posting times, regardless of whether you are lazy or not, or people may get fed up (like myself). Knownig testing times would help everyone see whether the performance file is working or not.

I am happier that McFry is 8th rather than last, and Eff One in 21st? If anybody read his articles in F1 News magazines in the 1990s, this is probably a fair position for him...

Something.
If my driver will be another reject here, I won't believe it. Seriously, in almost every single serie I have entered, my driver was rejectful so far.

I will post times for the next test.
I have run some more tests but i'm still not happy with the performance file. The first race will probably not be for a while.

Well the least thing i can say is that i got a balanced driver pairing, 12th and 13th, and 12th and 13th again, and guess what my starting numbers are?

On second thought, I have decided to keep this in 2012 so I don't have to substitute a lot of characters.

Oh this thread brings up childhood memories from when I used to draw up the paintjobs of cars to run in my own fantasy racing series, give names to the drivers and teams and design the tracks. Of course, those were drawings on paper ... fineliner and felt pens on squared paper mostly. Later, I only came up with drivers names to equip the grid of the Grand Prix 2 game from 1994. Some were rather hilarious like that Italian driver who legally changed his name after he had sold his naming rights to a German insurance company.

LOL. No, it was even worse because I named him after a ficticious insurance company: Versicherungsholding
Now that rolls nicely off the tongue, doesn't it?

If it doesn't work out, MRT can get you in the F1RWRS by about 2017 or 2018

This is getting VERY OVERDUE now. GL/Bahar, you promised to do this when the new F1RWRS season starts, and F1RWRS is now conducting its pre-season test. It has been months since last post here. IS THIS SERIES GOING TO OCCUR OR NOT?
