Right i'm sure most of you recognise my name, etc.
I've noticed that there are a lot of posts about the mad servers being quiet, etc. And i've noticed it when playing as well.
One thing i think would help, would be the info on Gp's, etc being a little easier to decipher.
I see people talking about doing the Gp next week, etc. So i come on the forum (its advertised on the server so easy to work that part out), but when i get here its a mess. Maybe its me being stupid, but i start looking at the threads and posts for clues on how to get involved, and fook me after looking for ten minutes im still none the wiser.
Now to be honest i know i'm not stupid. It seems that the information isn't really clear. I think there should just be a big sticky in bold at the top of the events/challenges section explaining when a event is and how often.
Someone can then update this with links to other threads where u can register, etc. The simple the better really. As it is at the moment i think newcomers haven't got a clue.
I'd volunteer to do it myself, but i cant find in plain english where these events, etc are. |

Agreed it should be a lot easier to find the info.
The Season 7 signup thread. Post in there to register.

The discussion thread about the gp's, note that only posts in the past couple months are really relevant. The rules as far as I'm aware are not 100% set in stone at this time

Yep that thread is a gigantic mess if you want to figure out what the heck is going on, here's a few details which may help you.
1. The 2 races are 25 laps long (possible that longer tracks may be 15-20 laps)
2. The races take place Mondays (I think?) at 8pm
3. The season starts on the 26th (?)
4. Respawns are disabled, you may(?) be able to rejoin the server though to restart if you crash.
5. Tracks are put up on the "EEK ITS MAD LAPS" server at 7.30pm Monday so you get a chance to practice the 2 weekly tracks.
6. Have fun and do the opposite of what spanky says! _________________ It's not the winning, its the taking apart |

Hi Bob, signups are here, you want to be able to commit to at least most of an eight week series, often split with a mid-season break (depends on changing circumstances), just post with your interest and wait for one of the Team Chiefs to snap you up (alternatively start your own three-car team).
Keep reading in Events & Challenges, all the history is there. First meeting is still a couple of weeks away if I read the runes correctly.
Good Luck! _________________
