Welcome to all new drivers, special welcome to my friend StraffeStef. Let the games begin my friend :)
 
Welcome to all new drivers, I'm sure you'll have a blast here 👍
Hope to see you all racing with us soon.
 
About how often are promotions done? I'm classed a little low for my results which fudges the handicap system. D3 seems right on for me as I can't make a dent in D2, but I should be gold or silver as I always have a negative handicap.

I hope to be back in the seat next week, as my real racing schedule should give me some breathing room. Plus I should have my new Human Racing rig too :)

Once a month. You get promoted based on your handicap which is fully dependent on your performance of course.

Cool. Then there should be one in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks Shawn :)

Wow, thanks, guys! Might take a break and do some homework soon - if someone can send me the seekrit Div 2 Manual of Human Speediness, that'd be great.

Actually very surprised there weren't two of us, but I really doubt it'll be too long.

Congrats to the other promotees, and welcome new to the new people - and the alien! :scared:


EDIT: ... a GTA 2012 finalist, unless I miss my guess :sly:

Mohit...very impressive. 👍

Marc, it's 'bout time, eh? You're so fast lately. :bowdown:

Ren, I can appreciate your sudden desire to RTFM...that's what happens when you jump divisions mid-week. The manual is written disparately here in the forums, and you told me you've read the "whole forum", so you've RTFM (past tense). Nice pace lately. 👍

Phil and Greg, great to see some fruits from your recent consistent labors. 👍


Welcome new guys and/or gals! :gtpflag:

Mohit, awesome job man.👍 Not surprised by Hydro, great job. Welcome to D2 Ren.:cheers: Congrats to pilamt and gman. Welcome to all the new drivers.
 
Thanks guys, and especially to Ron who alerted me via pm 👍
I've been away and quite busy for 2 days and had no idea until I checked my phone.

Congrats to the other promoted drivers as well :cheers: and welcome to the new drivers.

Btw, Lucas, what the heck does RTFM stand for? My guesstimate involves censored words ;) but its really just a guess. - unless the ending actually means ' 🤬 Manual. '

Read The Friendly Manual. So yes, you got it exactly right :sly:

It was only one little sub forum, dagnabit

Congrats to all the other promotions, and welcome to the new guys! :cheers: WRS is a lot of fun, so I'm sure you'll enjoy it. A cool community too. Hopefully I'll get to work on D4 when things slow down a bit.

What do the numbers in bold mean? :confused: I thought the first number might be a gap from D1 Gold but it has 5 decimal places and GT5 only goes to to 3 decimal places. Second number I have no clue. If it's explained somewhere just point me in the right direction and I'll look it up.

It's how much his handicap dropped.
