Joined the series as Commonwealth Ford Racing. We'll be running a Mustang Boss 302.

Very much looking forward to this series.

I'm in, mostly to see if I can keep my undefeated streak against Lappy going. :P

Well, I think it's an undefeated streak anyway...

I've entered now with my own team, using the Mercury Cougar ripoff as I have fond memories of it from GT2. Because I may not be able to use the internet on some weekends, it is advised for you to not join my team if you want a team mate who is always sharing his setup. :P

Me too Waffle. It used to be so much fun years ago when there were less series and no pro/academy designation. In college my buddies and aI won the team championship in the champ series once. Then they made champ car a "pro" series and you had to have 1 fastest lap to become pro. Nevermind my 6 wins wins, no fast lap, your an academy driver. Then they started booting drivers for "inactivity" (log on EVERYDAY or else) bit people who paid $20 don't get booted ever, even though they actually were inactive.

But I love Trans-Am so I figured I'd start this one. Invite anyone you think would like it. We'll start tommorrow night if that works for everyone. Winner gets the 2013 Wallio Cup (which lets you put it in your Sig if you so desire) we need a trophy name for last place though lol.

I'll join in - I can't promise I'll be able to participate in every race though. I'll certainly try my best!

Bet you any money that'll be the only time all year we achieve anything, though.

Yeah, I'm far too crap for reasons beyond my comprehension to actually legitimately challenge for the title.

As someone who loved Marc Donahue, I'd be okay with that, despite it meaning I didn't win lol. And it looks to be continuing through the warm-up anyway....

Throttle went kaput 9 laps to go. Race pace was pretty poor as well.

Still, plenty of time to learn as I go along.

Is it possible to join for round 2? Or does the game not allow that.

No, batracer makes it really easy to get booted, but impossible to add people sadly. However, the Trans-Am season is one of the shortest in the game, and ater its over, I can certainly start another one, one of the classic F1 series, perhaps? (this being an F1 site afterall :lol: )

Fourth to ninth because of the rain. Well, at least I scored my first points. That's always a positive.

That race was interesting. Also(minor spoilers), rain has finally halted the DAVIESWINSLOL streak.

I wouldn't start it now, as most of the people in our game can only join one private game at a time. I'd say wait until that series is finished, and then see how much interest there'll be for running Season 5.

And if we're doing a 1986 season, I call dibs on Osella :P
