Calv has his connection back now so that's good. I'd still love to get back and defend the team title but I'm not sure if Arch will have the time to play this go-round. Hey, third time's a charm right? :-p

Yep, and I thought that we maybe can play another racing series like 1986 instead of 2006.

I can devote some time in the mornings on weekdays to Batracer and some weekends. Will that be sufficient?

I sometimes forget you two are brothers... and then you remind me :-D

Archi you're welcome to retake your postion with the new Admin Team Bull :bull: and yeah the game is pretty manageable if you can carve out say 10-15 minutes to run your practice races to tweak your car.

Cool count me in then! I can certainly devote 10-15 mins a day most days of the week. I'll have limited free time from now until Friday and then from Monday onwards. I don't start work until 11am most days so I can find time before I go to work. :bull: :ohyeah:

No problem, I knew nada going in last season and neither did Tom and we took the Team Title; so it's pretty straightforward.

Okay, let's get people actually signed in so we can get this thing going sometime before the New Year :-p Here's the info to sign in, you can pic to captain your own team or jump in as teammate of someone who already has taken the leader role.
Players will need to be registered and logged in before they can enter the private game. When logged in, clicking the following URL will take you to the join game page:

http://batracer.com/-cj?&D&9302

Alternativly, you can select "private games" from the menu and enter the number "9302" into the box. The game password is "tblracing". Take care not to accidentally join a public game by mistake.

Ok, I will join when I get in from work tonight (site blocked from here :cry: )

Presumably I shouldn't captain a team as I don't know what I'm doing, which team should I join?

Awww yeah Admin Team in da house!!! :rocketcar: :-D

I'll be putting together a bit of a newbie guide like we've started doing with Popo but for this game in the Knowledge Base. It's pretty easy to catch on to after you get the basics down then it's just fun to brag/pain about the race results :-p

Hey Ox, maybe one of the TDG bandmates can join ya; the one known as Jeb was pretty darn good at this last time around, so much so that we decided to be on different teams this time around; he was the original member of Team Bull that won the first Team Title 8-)

Oh i'm sure i will get to grips with this baby..... being a self confessed petrol nut. F1, A1, Tin tops but my biggest passion being a biker is Moto GP and any motorcycle racing. :thup:

I have no idea what I should do in this, but I will participate or am I too late?

EDIT: wow, this thread started on May 06 I guess I'm really out of this.

We played one season way back when and have been trying to organize another ever since so that's why the thread reaches back so far. :doh:

We still do need a few people but it looks like this season is a go :joy:
