    Damn you can't delete your account. I think I will then set up a new account with a different email address on another computer and let my other one deactivate and then once it is deactivated I will be able to stop using my new account on the other computer and start using it on my normal computer again. Hopefully this will work.

    Just signed up my new driver, the only attribute I am bothered about are, concentration, talent, and technical insight. His technical insight is crap at 33, but his concentration is 137 and his talent is 222, hopefully his techincal insight will improve as the season goes on.

    I am in Rookie group 219 now as well.

    Still waiting to sign up my driver,

    Mifune you can always train your driver to improve his insight anyway.

    Edit : now i have to take a random bad driver, level 64

    Sounds like a good driver. When I signed my driver all I looked at is concentration, experience and to a lesser extent talent. Also I wanted a low aggressiveness. It would have been nice to get high technical insight and high stamina too, but we can’t have everything.

    The other thing I looked at when picking a driver is their average points to race score.

    My driver is currently

    Overall 82
    Concentration – 128
    Talent – 156
    Aggressiveness – 0
    Experience – 167
    Tech Insight – 45
    Stamina – 2
    Charisma – 117
    Motivation – 0
    Reputation – 0

    Weight is 99
    Age – 32
    Av/points per race – 1.92

    I’m not sure about drivers yet, but his av/points per race made him my number 1 choice. I would prefer his tech insight and stamina to be higher, but of course we have to make some compromises.

    His salary is currently approx $700K per race, which looking at the other drivers seems quite cheap. There are some drivers in my group getting paid silly money.

    What are the full stats of your drivers guys? Drivers stats is an area which I’m not sure about yet.

    So far at the race I’m on pole, but I know I won’t stay there, as some of the quick guys from last year haven’t qualified yet. I’m aiming for some points in the first race, but I’m not sure how likely that is yet.

    My Q1 setup was:

    Front W: 369
    Rear W: 370
    Engine: 594
    Brakes: 815
    Gear: 475
    Susp: 737

    Quali 1 time was 1:36.9, for Q2 I took 40 out of my wings and did a 1:28 on soft tyres. Currently P2 on the grid.

    I am debating whether to take even more wing out though.

    I STarted 2nd, currently 23rd, losing places every single lap. I think I've made a huge mistake on tryes, I've gone too hard.

    Not as bad as thought. Managed to finish 6th at the end, still too much trye left and too fuel left in. Driver made 2 mistakes too.

    Still points at the first race is a good start for me.

    Well done Bando <applause>.

    I came 6th which is solid enough but I think I could of done better if I had got my fuel loads correct, finished with 50lts left in the tank. I also spent too long on worn out tyes.

    Grats Bando, great result for you, well done.

    My sttings for the next race, I made a mistake by not replacing some parts so I don't think I'll be able to finish the race. I've gone for low feul and extra soft tryes. I think Medium tryes will be the right choice.

    Front W: 630
    Rear W: 666
    Engine: 715
    Brakes: 480
    Gear: 565
    Susp: 710

    My driver made a mistake in Qual 1, and I was 1.5 seconds slower than I should of been, made me way off the pace on the grid :( Hoping for a fastest lap in teh race. That's all I can hope for TBH.

    Set up is:

    Front W: 607
    Rear W: 616
    Engine: 615
    Brakes: 480
    Gear: 595
    Susp: 670

    Using the soft tyes and I am going for a boring two stopper, but I do not seem to have much pace here, qualified 11th and my Q1 time was 18th <yikes>.

    hmmm Qualified 14th but im confidant my strategy is good for the race, I have a suspicion that alot above me have softer tires to get that time and will have to pit more times. We will see, Im expecting more high scoring points.

    Hope you guys do well, I'm not expecting to do very well because I missed some parts that needed to be replaced.

    So instead I've gone for Extra Soft tryes to get some data for them, funny thing is that I'm not even fastest, so other people have done the same.

    Good luck for the race everyone.

    I knew it! I sat midfield for most of the race and towards the end of the race I picked them off to score a 4th place and maintain 3rd in the league
