Ive done about 10, possibly.. But Im a GP Vet. XFR + South City are my two favs in LFS, so there shouldnt be an issue. I wont be able to practice this till perhaps tuesday evening now, as League Practice comes first.

As franky wanted a gp ASAP. I hear its a pre-curser to a more regular Weekend happening of the ATC GP's

You guys have too much time on your hands, otherwise, Dadge is on the list, Cant wait to share a track with you again Dadge

Would think so being a year or so old..

LiveVideo version later today.

Guidato da passione

have to agree with Jakq here.. Website is possibly the first thing that a potential team mate/applicant will see. Think about your audience, what kind of image do you want people to form of your team..?

http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=18663

According to the thread title of the above thread on the second page of these team forums (a quick search), apparently includes information on Gaming Websites.. (I'd expect for free).

Website doesnt have to be anything special, but if you want people to spend more than 5 minutes browsing you, think about spending more than 5 mintes, or pounds developing your own.

There are pleanty of people out there in webworld who will work with you for credit and design/create websites that are different from the normal. You just have to search for them.

Good Luck

Search these pages, you may have to go to page two to find some of the more established teams.

Just search these forums. There are many many teams recruiting for drivers. For drivers that will stay a distance tho. Many of the newer teams popping up seem to change things daily. For stability to exist, people have to stick to comitments for a while, give things the chance to get somewhere.

My advice, stay independent for a while, research and find a group of people you enjoy racing with, get to know them first, before applying to join them. At least then you know where you are, and your not stuck with a team thats going to leave or desert you. You have to upper hand.

DBP recruits mature racers. Come test, race and hang out with us any time you wish.

ok, well is it just me or has everyone stopped making sense, or trying now.. im off to bed

Night all!

Quote from franky500 :

It was a great night for some racing.

It made me feel good indead. as a result.

THIS OFFER IS EXTENDED FOR 1 MORE DAY. you have until 23:59 GMT on March 1st 2007 to get your order in and the offer will still stand!!

Ok, putting my foot down there, there will be NO MORE EXTENTIONS after 23:59 GMT on 1st March 2007!!

Sorry I couldn't get back online this evening. I had a busy evening anyway, and then Real Life took over for a while, hence my quick exit.

All those who contacted me this evening, bare with me, your problems will be looked at overnight.

Thanks.

If we can get a word in Ant you and your Lag Laps! 500servers servers dont have lag!! didnt you know

Something came up franky, Back Later.

Oh My God!

Can we not like group all the drift ones together

LOL! th, hmmm interesting thought.. Im temped myself

*Rare Post*

Quote from Riders Motion :

The question isn't 'bout why there's so many teams, it's 'bout why there's so many noob teams

I dont understand this, or where it comes from. The word noob is offensive to some, and care should be used when using it. Every team, when it starts out is new, equaling the meaning of noob. Just like you and I was, when we started with LFS or anything else. We have all been noobs.

Quote from Falcon140 :

true

if u dont have a forum and a server

imo ur not a team....

Tend to agree, when setting up DBP, I thought that to make the best impression of a team with intentions to stick around, having a Forum/website and server would be the most appropriate way of doing things.

These team forums.. there are lots of new teams, sometimes three or four per day, and the recruitment makes me giggle. Its either...

Hey wanna join my team? Yeh, Ill join...

or

Must be experienced over 31 million miles and a 1:29.00 in the XFG at Blackwood...

Excuse me for being professional, with application forms and realistic requirements. Im very happy with my LFS Team, 10 strong, in just under two months. 9 of the friendliest, funnyest drivers in LFS at the moment, (and me). Its a great bunch, im sure they will agree. We dont ask for much, but we are serious about what we do ask.

In summary.. Agreed gag, there are two many flash in the pan teams, a bit of thought and organisation.. and things can be much better.

#goes back to my sad little world, living in the gutters and undergrowth of these forums#

Thank you franky.. Those prices are just sillyness, but good sillyness. I look forward to sharing some turn one madness with you franky, if you remember how to race, instead of that CLC stuff u bought a g25 for

In all seriousness, Thanks for your comments franky, and thank you Ant for planting this seed of madness..

*Rare posting*

Please dont take my post as a downer as to what you are trying to do, in the beginning, its very hard, A lot of people do think they can buy a dedi, and get straight into it, and make some money. It doesnt work like that, its a nice idea, but it really doesnt work that way.

Some things to think about:

Get an S2 Licence - People will apply more trust to those who have paid the same as them, getting licenced says your interested in being involved with the community, not just here to make a fast buck. Its the simple things that count, but over the past few months, a lot of people have been getting into hosting, and will make a post here, never to be seen or heard of again..

Think about a name for your hosting.. This is your first post:

Moving to a more powerful server after a while. Be a very short downtime about 5 minutes while changing servers.

It doesnt tell me:

• Who you are
  
• Why I should trust what your saying
  
• Why I should part with money to you
  
• What your hardware is
  
• Where your hardware is

Think of a name for the service you are planning to offer, and also how you will go about offering it. Its more than just buying a server and running LFS servers from it. It takes real time and energy, and investment to make something like this a success.

You have to know what your selling, If a customer thinks for one moment you dont know what you are doing, then you will not gain their confidence.

Think of your competition, a quick search of these hosting forums found:

Visit their websites, see what they are pricing and offer services accordingly. I want to see more server company's Offering their services, but I also wouldnt wish any clients or potential clients to rent services from companies, or individuals who are not sure whats involved.

Ask franky500, a well known member of this community, Im sure he would share some experiences with you. Its not all plain sailing, its not easy, some hard work is involved.

I wish you the best of luck in your server rental activities, and just ask for a bit of thought before offering services to these paying people

Good luck with the new team Danny

500servers got something very special for the 28th Very special indeed.

Way to go Lee, thats what people want to see, less Threatening behaviour, and more actual action from DRG... asking Clients for their sign up details... Good luck.

Mostly up. Host was "updating the network" which resulted in a whole 24 hours of lost onlineness. Site is up again, cant fault them on support, otherwise I would have moved on by now

Site down, along with other hosted sites on my vps (essential upgrades at bluesquare apparently). Unsure as to when it will be back.
