I'm in 11 others except our game.
In my other games I'm at the moment that guy who crashes or make mistakes so he always gets retired from the race.
At least it feels like it, in 4/10 games my latest race resulted in retirements, the eleventh is a Indy 500 where there are no retirements.
The best position I got, except P3 in our game, is P12, but this is because of bad luck, or that my teammates hasn't posted in several days.

To finish 6 out of ten races is not bad at all. I had 5 retirements in a row (in different games though).

Whaaaat?
from 6th position to 2nd?! Woot! Aah, that made my day
, and the good thing is that I was closing on Helmy, but had not enough time. Fastest lap also! Yay, and now I took a lead in driver's standings, and we are tied for 1st place with Team Spirit
Now that's what I call a good start to a shiny day
...now where's my teammate?

And Timura takes the pooole, and he's all ready to take down the 1st spot in tomorrow's race. Helmersson is gonna be a tough opponent though. And he might not be the only one

This sentence, in which one name is missing, is a quote from a movie. Wanna guess which movie it's from?

This race sucked donkey ass. Awful start, change of weather conditions, mistakes, Wilson's retirement from 2nd place, me finishing 4th...

I agree with Timura on this one.
Trouble for our team in every session, with crashes and stuff.

There's a lot more weather changes than in my other games. It seems all i'm doing is changing my tyres. Another exceptionally bad start for me! What is going wrong there!

I've found a helpful site, it's the unofficial forums for Batracer, but there you can find info on every series and you get helpful tips about them, how your sliders can fit with different driver characters and more. Here's the link:

A half an hour left, before a new Red Bull/Fuddruckers win.

Indeed Joe, everyone is closer than ever. It's the only time we have all been within 1 second of pole position. Apart from Reger's little accident.

I think that that was the best thing that could happen for the championship.

I think we shouldn't discuss the result until 5 past or maybe 10 past.
What do you guys think?
