InterContinental Motorsport - iRacing team

I think this season I'm going back to the drawing board. When I started in '11, it was all about consistency and smart driving. Once I got that squared, I started to race. Most of my successes came not so much from taking positions, but just not giving them away.

Then I left for 6 months, NTM2.0 came out, and some time later, I returned. Tried to jump right back in where I left off, and promptly dropped 700iR. Not once did I try a start-over. With so much changed and a few seasons of dismal results, I think it's time to start over.

Goal #1 - stop ripping the rear end geometry out of the car on the kerbs. Grey = good. Red & White = bad. 💡

I think most of the team this season is going for iRating rather than points due to real life events at this time of year. I also need to get some more practice in the HPD ready for the ProtoIce Championship later this year.

Even when nothing changes. Not racing hurts your game even if its for a few days, a week,2 weeks or longer. How fast you will get back to your previous level differs from person to person. I learned it the hard way.
 
I’ve been looing at this for a while now and was wondering what you have to do to join. Is there a licence and/or irating requirement? I can help out with the painting side if needed.


Smuffy.

No license and/or irating requirement ;)

You'll be contacted by our administrators as soon as possible :)
 
Well I'm here, sorry for the delay. I will ask Erik as soon as possible and should get back to you within the next day or two.

No requirement on your iRating or your licence. But we do require that you are on TeamSpeak when you can.
We use TeamSpeak to everything from talking about the weather and share ideas about racing and venting when we need that ;)
So you will find people not even racing being on teamspeak, this is our team communication and where we become friends.

This means that if you fail to be part of our communication you will be removed from the team.


I am still interested in this also

You will both receive a msg with the information to join teamspeak. In the topic/description of the "chat" channel you will find all information needed when you join it. Like where to download the team's paint schemes for most cars. We still miss a few, but we are constantly working on making them.

Looking forward to "hear" from you soon.



EDIT:

How do you join?

You just ask for it ;) I guess you just did so you will also shortly receive a msg about teamspeak
 
Hey gang. Just a heads up about my situation. All my **** in my den got flooded. So it's going to be a while before y'all hear from me. Insurance and lots of work to do to get my crap replaced. I'll shout back here on GTP. Happy racing all. Vince.

Holy ship! Sorry to hear that. Im guessing because of all that rain we got for three days! :(
 
So, after some time alone in iRacing (well played with some friends but they only have basic membership) I'm looking for someone to play with. This said can I before part of your team? :)

Oh no! Well hope you get it all sorted without any fuss. See you soon.
 
OP updated a bit.

And I'm sorry I'm not much around lately, but I got some kind flu. Totally takes me out and not really up for anything. Just feel like going to bed.
On the bright side I don't really feel sick beside maybe a bit dry throat.

Guess I be back soon to terrorize TeamSpeak ;)

Happy racing everyone!!
 
Rather than have my name sticking around like some dead weight, I reckon I'll request to be dropped from the team and go out on good terms.

I've just dropped iRacing for the time being. I'm at a point in my life where all the little things have sort of lined up and I'm making a run at actual racing. As such, 100% of my "fun money" (and indeed a bunch of my "rent money" ;)) are tied up and I can't afford the sub, a desperately needed new wheel, and desperately needed PC upgrade to make iRacing worth it.

I suspect I'll be back someday and I hope to see some of y'all on the track. Until then, it's time to stop chasing the aliens and start chasing my dreams. Good luck to all, and see you down the road. /salute

Thanks for the update Carl. I will remove you from the website later today. From all of us here at ICM we wish you good luck and we'll hopefully see you in the future.

Just letting you guys know that I won't be online for the next few weeks as I'm going on holiday and won't be back until the end of the month. ;)
 
Have a nice time Joey.

I'll be updating the website sometime today with a new news article and also updating the members list.
 
Sorry I haven’t been too active on TS or iRacing. I’ve had a couple of exams which I’ve studied for.
(That’s if I’m still part of the team)
 
Sorry I didn't respond earlier smuffy, but of course you are part of the team. I just hope your exams went the way you hoped ;)

And I'm not very much on myself lately, the things I need to fix during the summer is overwhelming and the time to sit down and drive is very limited.

I do try my best to complete the season in both GT-Challenge and Grand Am, and from time to time I will show myself on TeamSpeak, but when I do get to sit in my racing rig I usually just feel tired after a long day and a movie or my bed feels more tempting. So I might not be on for long.

Anyway, when all the things that need to be fixed is fixed I guess I be back full time, but when you own your own house you never really get out of work :P

And the teamspeak server will be going down for hardware maintenance some time on Friday. So if it goes down, just wait a hour or so and it will be back as soon as I'm done.

Anyway, I hope you guys have fun racing
