Yeah, me and the old man. Rode up on our bikes and stayed on Douglas prom. Only way to do it! That is definitely the way to soak up a lot of the atmosphere and festivities, I would imagine. Any tips on viewing spots? Some of the viewing spots I would love to try include the top of Snaefell (looking...

Unsurprisingly I'm totally against the limit of 4 teams per entity. If it's just a pet hate from a few users, then that's a bit unreasonable. If it's because it's allegedly unrealistic, allow me to illustrate. Carlin - competing in seven different categories. Fortec - competing in six categories, pl...

It was the same last year, reason being that people could potentially cheat the system by filling it with their own drivers to bypass the reduced odds of a driver accepting a paydriver role. I love how nobody complained last year about the rules, but there's been loads of issues this time...[/passi...

20-year-old Geoff Donnelly is looking for a drive in F3000. If he's a pay driver, Spirit will snap him up. Fictional drivers can't be paydrivers, unfortunately. Wait, why not? What incentive is there for a cash-strapped team to sign a fictional driver then? And similarly, if you want to start enfor...

I appreciate I haven't the talent of some of you guys on here, which is why the Jones logo has always been a bit...crap, no matter how many times I fiddle with it.

Harvey Jones is available if any team is interested in his services. If a driver is offered an 8 race contract, does that mean the team pays him 100,000 DM even if the wage must be 200,000 DM?

Is it possible to ask to have a driver added to the pay driver list in the spreadsheet?

If so, please add Chuck Barrett (USA) in there. His sponsor is Citgo, good for 10 races.

Trying to organise anything with more than about 4 people is a bloody nightmare, whether you know and see them in person, or not. Even if we were able to organise something and got it booked, I bet one or two wouldn't show up on the day for whatever reason. If someone can get everyone together and p...

If they do buy, I bet they'll just buy the Automotive side. How much to Apple currently spend on advertising? Sinking millions into a loss-making F1 team just isn't them.

Interesting views. I do wonder what sort of revenue Autosport generate from it and how that stacks up versus the money made on print copies.
