Driver #5: JET

Formed on Nov. 17, 2006 from the popular Xbox Live racing club with drivers Jet and Speed. This American team competed in the [SR] F1 championship, then following Speed’s departure from the team at the Kyoto Ring GP Tortoise joined on for the remaining two races. In our first season with Jet and Speed the team experienced 1 win, 5 podiums and 1 double podium. Then after singing Tortoise the team earned 1 more podium, and missed an easy win in the last race due to a disconnection. With its experience and a strong showing in pre-qualification, OMC will be one of the teams to watch in OWRL F1.

Just wondering, I saw SK Racing in the teams list, where is their presentation?

SK finished first in the quali. we are presenteing them in the reversed order of the qualification so they come tommorow

pod - virtual racing
#3 - ISKuGa | #4 - SpeedyKev

Team tag: pod
Team website: http://www.planetpod.de
Driver #3: ISKuGa
Driver #4: SpeedyKev
Test drivers: Germanpio, Krutch



pod - virtual racing joins the first ever OWRL F1 season with two veteran open wheel drivers still excited to start in a new endeavour. The team is one of the more well known German racing teams, winning the ESL Pro Series Finals with Pascal Schönrock in 2006.
The two primary drivers for the team will be ISKuGa and Speedykev. Both drivers have been ranked highly in previous OWRL season. England's Speedykev, hired by pod for this league, was the winner of the first ever season in the OWRL. 27-year old ISKuGa only missed out on the FO8 championship in 2006 by scoring one less third position than Andy(GER). Being 2nd in qualifying for OWRL F1, pod will certainly be one of the teams to watch this season!

If we have to name one favortite team for this OWRL F1 season, it has to be SK Racing. Not only has the team, under the name Ocrana, won in many racing series, it also was the fastest in pre-qualification. Among the members of the team are some of the fastest drivers in LFS. n1lyn for example is a four time ESL Pro Series LFS Champion. The team is looking to start the first ever OWRL F1 season with EPS-driver Husky and multiple Dutch champion Vince.
