[RACE] NR2003: 2014 GTPlanet Fantasy Series *That's A Wrap!*

[KuniKinoshita]

Would it just be one article a week? Sorry if I'm asking a bunch of questions. I'm just wanting to know how you'd do this.

Firstly, it would depend on if I got approval to do this. If I did get that, it would then go to how popular it is and how many different parties would be available for interview. If there were 20 different parties between teams and drivers, then I would consider two interviews, but it would also rely on my work schedule. One interview a week for most weeks would be comfortable, with two or three being used for special events, such as the season opener or the finale, or the start of the chase.

Eh, come back when you have 35 alerts (plus an unread conversation). And many of them came from two of my posts on the Bertone VGT thread, one of which has 18 likes or so. I swear, that car will become my favourite VGT just on these grounds alone...

Ahem, back on topic. @KuniKino****a's idea of an interview to select drivers would be a great idea. Of course, she would have to be prepared to follow the schedule of the series, and to select drivers beforehand. My suggestion would be picking the winner, then the remainder of the podium, and finally one or two drivers that were involved in some sort of key moment of the race. Of course, this would also depend on your real-life schedule, since I'm sure that your job requires some time.

I have a pretty substantial question to ask @BRRT_Angel and @Michelin What was the immediate atmosphere after Furinkazen's devastating accident. Angel, this question more applies to how you learned of you being requested to take his seat and Michelin, if you could, please explain what your feelings were about the changes and exactly how the team is now compared to before.

The atmosphere was... quite dark, to say the truth. We had reached a deal to race under Furi AutoSports for next season, and we were just finishing up details to go full strike for 2015, but then it happened.. Inside the car right after the wreck the atmosphere was already weird, because I was only able to see Furi's car stopped close to that pit wall while avoiding the wreck, my crew chief just informed me that Furi went head on on the wall after I had catch up to the pace car... During that whole safety car period we never spoke a word. I wasn't able to even voice out my opinion to ask the race to be stopped there.

As the feelings... well, the whole team showed a lot of personality. The #54 crew showed how strong they are, because they just kept going with BRRT_Angel, and kept running up front, giving her the same quality car Furi was getting, that for me was the biggest surprise. As a whole, FAS just hanged in there, as hard as it was to do it and kept giving 110% every weekend so far.

 

[Smurfybug]

I personally don't. There's nothing really to ask your team about. Not being disrespectful, there's just no curiosity as your team is transparent as it is from what I've seen.

Well I'm the new rookie on the team and I have been with the Cyber Team in the Nypd.....

 

[Tired iron]

I've got a question for everyone that feels obliged to answer. If you could select a track to open the season, what would that track be. It has to be an existing real life venue. For me, I honestly think that a race at Le Mans would be great.

For me it would be Charlotte but Daytona is the place to start the season due to the time of year a good spot to start a week long racing party in the middle of winter.

Is it Chase time? I'll get the popcorn, you grab a pizza. Time to see 12 drivers fight amongst themselves for the right to be called a champion...

 

[KuniKinoshita]

Beginning to work on the first issue of the GTPFS Newswire. If someone could please direct me to the accurate Chase calendar, I'd appreciate it. I'll also start up a private conversation with the Chase drivers.

That's some strong words coming from a rookie. I will let @quietgirl speak for herself, but I'll just add that I support my drivers 100%. Maybe you need to learn to get out of the way when faster cars come through.

A question to Mr. Raven:

What is your opinion on running a team for next season? How are you taking the experience in?

Makes sense seeing how I have as many top tens as she does in a quarter of the starts.

A question for you. Your team will be going head on with [MLP Scuderia Red Bull*] to be the best Chevrolet team. The fire has already been ignited between two of the 8 drivers.

Is there a question there or are you trying to point out that quietgirl and myself will prove who the best female driver is?

Oh my good lord. Set up the barricades. It's a brawl.

It has definitely been a lot more work behind the scenes than I expected. Lots of negotiations with drivers and sponsors and so on. Then there was the investment in garage space and personnel. Going from an independent single car team running out of the family garage to a full fledged operation with our own facilities and 4 teams has been a dream come true - and maybe a nightmare at times.

I'm just honored to have our drivers on board. It was touch and go until we got everyone signed, but I knew it needed to be done. It's not like the cars drive themselves!

Now we are focusing on training the new crew members and getting everything up to speed. The cars are built and just need a coat of paint. We're hoping the rules package will soon be finalized so that we can set up our cars and start testing in earnest.

Not necessarily. He's the only one in the chase for his team. With that said, Furinkazen Autosport is the best team overall and the rest is just pick a team. I don't think that there are teammates in the chase.

@The Bman & I are teammates, and we're in the chase

@The Bman

I stand corrected then, your team is the best Chevy team this year.
