Flash-racing was established in autumn 2007 by Petteri Heinonen (LFSW: Saerki) and Marcus Seppälä (LFSW: Meicci). At the start it wasn’t really very easy to find loyal members but after month or two, we recruited Matt Wiseman (LFSW: SuperHans). He was a great addition to the team. It was about then we realised out that there’s a GTR-challenge named IGTC. We applied to join the league but got suspected for not having enough skill. We got invited in test race and proved ourselves worthy of racing there. When the season started, we were very worried about having not much time for practising enough due to summer holiday. Unfortunately Matt had absolutely no time for training and we had to quit IGTC. However CoRe|DWB said that we have a place in IGTC in future when we have enough time.

During 2009 and 2010 we mostly raced at OWRL due to management-problems and lack of motivation on some drivers. We even thought of closing the team, but then inspiration struck. We had a go at oneGP, some of the members raced in iTCC and we participated in several events.

Now at 2011, still having 3 competitors at OWRL, we have a very small lineup that is the foundation of our team. Everybody has grown up to have greater responsibilities and we have now a very solid team with great spirit in it. In the hope of still finding nice members, I decided to re-introduce long lost flash-racing to the community.

Dedication+Determination=Domination

Did 23,98 with about half an hour of training, quite nice track it is. I don't race karts so i can't say how it compares to the "real thing" though.

It's been a long time since i've posted to this thread. Been very busy with thing called "life" and not being in touch with the community.

Firstly, GTAL was pretty rubbish and flash stopped it after second race, partly due to other teammate's race-ability problems and partly because of the not-so-good level of racing in GTAL. Reminded banger rally more at a time. Management improved throughout the process, but still, it isn't a place for flash-racing. Some of our drivers got their great-valued league-experience's at GTR.

Since the team is drawing too small, i have only few options, and one of them sadly is total closure. Managing the team alone, for year now because of Meicci's movement to place where he can't race online, has been a tough road for me. I would really want to try renewing the roster, but since the most-experienced and valued racers are in team, the job seems mission impossible. If I can't find co-manager for me, it's a dead end for flash-racing. It's not a decision printed in paper, but options are few. If there's any experienced ones willing to help me , have ideas for me or similar things, please PM here on forums.

-still flash-manager, sharky

That's mint!

Yeah, well.

I got full-grid racing "experience" on Fern Bay Green circuit. Was on middle-section and got hit behind before t1. Then said sorry and one epic hero who i accidentally hit got blaming me for being "t1 crasher" and started to vote for banning me. Of course everyone else without knowing heck of the situation joins this noobs vote and... hobla, banned for 24hours. Great racing sometimes but that kick-ban-standard drives me mad.

-unhappy racer from FM FoX JunKIEzZS!?!

We're still searching for one driver for our GTAL lineup. /q Saerki in GameSurge or PM here in forums.

He is ok now. He got network failure 30min before qual. Not very fortune. It's a learning process yeah, but still leaving some of the job for the drivers to do is astonishingly rubbish.

That's a good point. But being wrecked and being target of silly orders isn't that "fun LFS is all about". GTAL-admins have done MOSTLY good job, but then there is some major mistakes. Like not publishing the skinpack, and failure at PW-sending.

Our other driver is fine now. But still i'm very upset about this "training session". Just to say, flash-racing had place in IGTC and is one of the most experienced teams in this amateur league. I think this order just strengthens the idea of retiring from the league. I've seen amateurish actions from the organizers and even more from other drivers. From my POV, it doesn't feel ideal for us. Looking incidents from few POV's and making decisions just with them as basis, isn't the cleverest way to deal with.

-sharky

Ghehehehe... This is ridiculous, i get hit from everywhere on SC-lap and the admins ask ME to come for "1 hour training". Well i'm not coming. Other driver didnt appear to race, and havent seen him after that, im hell of worried about him. He made clear before the race when he will come, but... Just think again about that training session.

Quote from Stefani24 :

Wouldnt call that very professional either, i mean why are we having a pace car at all?

Sorry to be rude, but your driving was far worse than the administrating here. I could've rised 2-3 protests just again you if we had 2 drivers. So please quit blaming others and look in the mirror.

GTAL went very bad for us. I failed miserably in qual and resulted in 16th position in grid. On warmup-lap, storm-racing car banged me from behind and almost caused me to spin. On race itself, i wasn't too motivated because our other driver Sami wasnt there at all. Disorientation through the race resulted in few spins. 30min before end i quit, still no Sami in sight. Hope there hasn't happened anything too bad.

Whole organisation is thinking about pulling back from GTAL due to poor behaviour of many teams. Blue-flag situations were epicly awful, only few cars gave way like they had to. There was massive blocking and even an desperate overtake from lapped car which almost cost me the whole race. Not the racing we were searching from GTAL. But we'll decide about the future in few days. More news coming then.

The blue flag-situations were awful. Especially with #27. Not sure if we continue in this league due to awful behaviour of other teams. Also got rammed in SC-lap from behind. Horrible.

Oh gosh. Aren't you going to support us with a 2048 skinpack? Well I do. How about the server on remote btw, it ain't there...
