You can do the Rookie series in 3 cars for free (and the GTC at the 2 free tracks on the schedule). You said you had the V8? That's at a free track this week. Did you buy anything else? Up until the start of season 3, I had only bought 4 cars and 6 tracks since May 2010 and was able to run almost every week with the cars I'd bought. Buy the tracks you need - i.e. the popular ones like Watkins, Philip Island for the V8, Mid Ohio, Road America, etc. ones you can get the most use out of in other series. Although you might want to wait until nearer to season 1 in 4-5 weeks to see what the next schedule will be.
I agree, drive with in car or custom view then
EQ Worry created a website and wrote lots of comments inside the Airio files for a reason. Other people who have set up Airio have read both and done fine. You PM'd me a while ago asking for help, but made no mention of what you actually wanted - I'm not going to bother helping anyone who doesn't help themselves, and I doubt anyone else will either.
He probably expects one of us to be kind enough to spend money on someone with 2 laps and 39 miles of online racing. :rolleyes:
Own up, which one of the mods locked this earlier 
He's a hosting provider, and there are tools out there to notify people if a website is up or not so it's no excuse for him not to know about the problem.
Well there's not just one reason, but a lot of them.
However if you are putting so much work into it but getting no reward then you need to ask yourself if the work you're actually putting into it is useful - to quote Gordon Ramsey to another American, you don't want to be a "busy idiot".
- People have better things to do at 1-4pm in the UK/Europe (like football/sports, going out for christmas shopping, etc.). And who the **** gets up to do a league race at 8am in the USA?
- 2 cars per round, more setup/practice work
- People have maybe found other leagues/things they are putting their time into
- Experiences with the other drivers in the previous round or other events may have put some drivers off
- as above but with the admin team

I don't think I need to change, haters can hate me all they want but I don't start having hissy fits about it.
It's funny because I was pleasantly surprised by LLM's Super GT results and thought they were just getting on with the important things like improving their driving and keeping a lower but positive forum profile.
However posting in your teams thread for the first time in a couple of weeks to say someone "has been asked to leave the team" basically negates all the positive things that happened with LLM recently. Especially when you then go on to say he was leaving the team of his own accord anyway, why say anything at all?
Well a pattern emerges... was James on trial with LLM at some point? 
Yes because telling the whole world that you kicked a driver is a great piece of good publicity - what other teams (apart from TRR) do you see doing this?
Oh look at all the recent ovals in the US, they all turn left, sigh...
Hardly flat:
Only problem is the GT cars are basically the same pace as the ALMS GTC class, so they've had to slow these GT3 cars down quite a bit, which obviously takes time and money to develop otherwise you could have lots of European GT3 cars making their way over.
The limit should be increased on those circuits where in real life the track licence would allow it. For example, Le Mans, Sebring and Petit Le Mans have 56 cars, Spa had 62 for the 24 hour race, you can see the formula for working it out in the FIA regs (for international events).
Nope, none of the broadcasts anyone has done in the history of LFS have ever had download or youtube links so why would this one be any different?
The issue with MySQL 4.1+ authentication is that PHP 4 doesn't support it, therefore you can't run the local tracker. I did try the local tracker with PHP 5, however there were a few errors so I'd need to try and fix them - but I don't really know the differences well enough between the versions to do it quickly
Sorry Yann I already have someone for the race directing, perhaps you can do the French catering to help tempt these manufacturers back?
No good having credibility and international viewers if you are down to 3 manufacturers in 2000 who clearly would eventually stop supporting the costs of running 3 cars each to Super Touring regs.
And surely it was the fact that there were international drivers brought international viewers, who were there because manufacturers wanted the best drivers? Therefore with fewer manufacturers bringing less international drivers, of course less people outside the UK are going to watch. But outside of the UK isn't the core market for BTCC sponsors so although it's nice to be shown around the world, it's not that important.

Spectators can affect T1?
Give me a full grid of S2000/NGTC cars over 11 Super Tourers any day. Compare BTCC 2000 to 2011 - TV coverage, entrants, battles, cost of running a team and there's only one winner.
Ones made by the Kingsburys I'm sure, there's proper ones in the TVD thread if they want it.
Are you saying that there were previously people in TRR who you didn't really want in the team, who were slow and didn't know how to behave? Not sure how having the same people in charge would change any of that...
Only time I've seen rolling starts at Knockhill off the top of my head is with Legends and British GT, Classics have run there for years with standing starts. Andy Neate's crash was because he hit the outisde wall at the s/f and bounced back onto the track obviously a rolling start didn't help but he'd be fine at the new Silverstone.
That is true, I didn't realise until I read the ALMS rules with the IMSA code that basically every big series in the US has its own sanctioning body like the MSA over here. In the UK it's just one sanctioning body, but a good few organising clubs which run series, under MSA rules.
