Yeah I was tempted to but was going to enquire properly at a later stage, then they split. :'(

Still, I think a new team would be pretty cool. I'll have to think about it though and of course it depends on others want to as well.

What are most requirements by teams to get into them? 10 top 100's or something?

I have also found out EMW Wazzy has a tuning shop, I hope not selling VxR tunes as that would be so wrong. :glare:

VxR has crippled my interest in hotlapping. Not that I was all that great at it anyways.

Being in a team definitely helps to improve drivers. But so does being in a league like this. I mean, take yourself Born, you've improved a great deal since you joined here a year ago. So has Shifty, James, and many others (even myself to a certain extent). So it's not essential.

I'm in a fairly negative mood towards teams recently though, so feel free to ignore me. ;)

If you're ever doing a little hotlapping and I'm online, send me an invite and I might join in (just for fun though).

I've just started doing it now I've left the series and I am shocked how much quicker I am now compared to before, I can challenge for top 50 places on a regular basis now whereas before [Joining the series] it was once every Millenium... (can't spell :P ) Suppose I could hot lap with you too polaris whenever I am on?

I'll have a go, as long as it's not Fujimi, Nurburgring (Full) or Positano. I'd need to turn the line on to do those and I refuse to do that. :)

Ok, I absolutely hate them three simply because of the sheer lengths of the tracks! On another note what teams are available which would provide help and help to train you up like? I mean which ones have good reputations and things?

I may not be one of the fastest in video games, but still I think I did a pretty fast clean lap at Nordschleife in class A with my 2wd GT3RS.....(7:40's...) :)

It's surprising, you can actually understand the gist of what you're saying Alex. Must've been a quiet night for you, eh?

I find it quite a good alternative to competitive racing, better than public lobbies for sure.
