I know where you got that info from, but you don't know me, I would never use those tricks...it goes against my principles, that's why I mentioned it here!
Take it easy guys, I was not accusing anyone of anything, I was just showing two situations to explain my point, mainly to the organisation and participants, I wasn't implying that it was cheating or that we even had a shadow of a chance against Inex... just making the point that champ's outcome can be influenced by the lack of rules about this.
So don't make a storm in a tea cup here!

Little something that has been troubling me, I think that after half of any season of league racing new sign up should be prevented…example: Inex signed another car under another name and take valuable points away from the championship contenders. The same way in AM, for the last race we only need a 17th position to win the champ, so if I wanted to play it the same way, I just need to sign up one or two extra cars in PRO to make sure there are 17 cars or less in AM, it is not fair and it should not be possible! (of course I do understand that admins are only trying to fill the grip for every race, but it is wrong)
My 2 cents...

On paper your pro line up is starting to look very strong, grats to Reno and the TRR!
Congrats!!..though I do not know what it means as I wasn't aware of an other Vires team down under.

Keep posting!
...Keep posting!
Ignore the GenR duo...they are just jealous! 
I am sure you will bring something very positive to Vires and a great mentality!
@Vires drivers: Do listen to him!!...though he can talk a lot..
Good luck to both Vires and Momo!!

If it wasn't for the start our race went as planed, we knew the AM race would probably be about damages and time spent in the pit, so we've decided to race within our limits and avoid damages at all cost, Virgil and Niklas did an awesome job without repairs needed and they gave me the car almost as new...most of the race we were fighting and hoping to recover from the bad start to a top 5 place, so no need to tell you how surprised we were to get an other podium...good race all!
@James Peace: I was planning to let you pass before the hair pin, but I made a mistake before the chicane which slowed me a lot and caused the contact when you were coming to lap me, I know you haven't lost much from it, but I am sorry!
Grats to Inex for an other dominant race!!

LOL told you many times not to post after drinking!
Grats to Simon and Isaac, great pace guys and entertaining last couples of laps!
@Nathan: I can see much improvement speed wise from you, but you are not consistent and you remain a dangerous driver, it looks like you're not planing on improving your track awareness...c'mon don't be a hazard for the rest of the field, get your act together!

Worse track in LFS, I always use matches to keep my eyes open!
Not sure what you mean here Joe, I am not even sure what top guys/drivers means for you, if it is alien fast with over sized ego who can’t even show good example by finishing their race because they are not on the podium, then I am not sure we really need them. And good competition can be achieved at any level, what we need is hardcore race lovers who are ready to race maturely and show good example by being clean, consistent and friendly…being a racer is not only an ability, it is also a mentality. I think the attitude of many (not all) aliens in lfs has a perverse effect on the racing ambiance because they have no respect for anyone but themselves...
@Phill: I agree with you about the numbers of teams, and we also miss a lot of ''serious'' public racing like we use to have... and that’s why I think it is more important now than ever to help smaller or new teams to achieve something, that’s the best way to motivate them to stay in lfs…I think by doing that we can have a solid league community and full grids again. Anyway my 2 cents here is, the best way for amateur drivers (who are a majority this days) to have fun and be encouraged to progress is by matching drivers and their pace in good quality leagues…NDR is the best league organization atm and they have experience with amateur races!

@Troy: not really true for this year as we had GT1 Challenge a few month ago and we have GT Masters running ATM…That said I like the GT1WS idea too!
@Deko: just a little note, I think you miss some kind of amateur league, I understand you don’t want to run GTAL anymore. But it is important to prepare the new generation of drivers and GTAL was perfect for that, when amateurs try to join big leagues, they are so much off pace that they lose motivations. And they are many teams around who don’t have PRO line ups yet, they need something to prepare them… I know GTAL was very useful for us, it is what got us in to league racing after all! (not every team can recruit good drivers and I think ‘’bigger’’ teams should have an AM line up to form their new drivers instead of only recruiting the best ones…the quality of the leagues is not only in the hands of the organization, the drivers are also very much responsible, so good preparation is important)
Another little note here, I noticed that too many drivers still do not prepare their races well and it shows in the events, so is there not something you/we could do to insure a minimum training has been done? Like required official training sessions (of some kind) in the days or weeks preceding the races? Another idea would be to have the bigger teams to mentor one smaller team each to help them improve, after all what we all want here is good competition and as many strong teams as possible, so we could help I think…
I do like the idea of TBO challenge and I must say that I agree with Isaac and J@tko about TBO endurance, would be a great idea!...not enough good quality road car leagues any way! (we have like 5 drivers who never participate in leagues because they only like road cars and the offered leagues are poor quality)

Well, a year ago we've changed our way of doing things and one of the main thing is we don't do too many leagues at the same times...specially not two different races on the same day. So instead of the 3 cars we were planning, only one will be possible
... When I was your age yeah without problems, this days I would need some viagra to hold on so long!...or were you talking about something else?
Depends...we have 6 drivers in lfscart...
We'd like to participate in this 24h race, but we will give priority to what is already started...lets see...
Damn I am just back from an heavy race weekend in SPA and I was really looking up to watch the stream and replay from this race, now I am not so sure...
@Isaac: THX for exposing our team's low IQ in public, just note that with the little brain we have we don't pretend to be perfect and contrarily to some teams we do deal with our problems and try to improve!
