Topic Summary

I honestly think the problems are with advertisement and the online interface for the visiting prospect. If the members who have come through the fields were to stick around for every race we would have much fuller grids. So the question is, how do we retain the racers who give us a week or so to try us out?

I think the answer is to give them a compelling reason to log into the site every day or so. A good looking interface, a busy and active forum, and content which is served up frequently enough to engage the membership. As the league membership grows the reasons to visit the forums and site will grow exponentially. Especially if we have active members making posts and being engaged.

This is something to shoot for and hopefully we can realize the vision of full grids in both rF2 and PCars.

It's a shame this cup failed because it had potential. Racing was pretty close and tracks were interesting. Maybe it was a mistake not having points races. People get more motivated when there are points in stake.

The race was changed from a 60 minute endurance race to 2 separate 12 lap races. 4 racers showed up for the race and 3 actually participated. For those of us who stuck it out the racing was fun and the group was competitive. Both Tig and Proto took 1st places in the races. I was 2nd in the first race due to a mistake by Tig on the last lap, and last in the second race. (Still a podium though :)).

It seems then last race in this series will be shuttled and we will determine where to go from here. See other posts for further details.

Good luck with the race today.  I have to work today and won't be able to fit the race in my schedule.  See you in a couple of weeks.

I came here to say I wont join the race because of F1. Didn't expect them to be on at the same time.
Then I read the race is postponed.

Good.

We have very few people signed up and only 3 of us at the carb day.  The server is acting up and we're losing at least one person watching the F1 race.

I'm all for postponing the race 1 week.  We have nothing to lose by postponing.

Looks like I am having issues with the AC server now too. I can open it and start the server. however, after about 30 seconds or so it closes for no reason that I can explain. I will try to get it back to right before I go into work this afternoon. If not I'll have to work on it after work. If I cant get it up and running we may need to postpone the race or have someone else run the server temporarily.

I just realized that unfortunately I can't take part in this race. There is two reasons for that. First is that the race would be at the same time F1 race airs. Secondly I would have to catch a plane to business trip right after our race, but I can't be sweaty and unprepared. Would have like to race because it's been few weeks since my last proper race.

See you next time, I really try to be there then. Have fun!

I;m not sure about the carb day, but if I am around I will be in.  It depends on when my tires are delivered.

Count me in.
Track should be good for racing each other.

Huh?  Am I on the right track?  There doesn't seem to be any flow to me, just long straight sections followed by a couple of tight turns and pain in the ass chicanes.  No elevation changes and billiard table smooth pavement. Bit boring.  :(
Well at least the track is wide and should allow for close racing.  I'm in.
