    Well, i loved all the tracks from this last 1979 series, except for laguna seca. So that's a good starting point, IMO.
    I would love to find an old version of donington track, I think there's one!
    I will test some that i have in mind, i'll try to find some more.. and than i'll my post my thoughts here.

    Thanks. Any input is welcome.

    I've started a new thread for the F1 1975 series to keep this one on topic;

    Aparently Nigel MIddleton is waiting for some people to give their PayPal emailadres. He wants to take care of it all in one go.
    For further info you can contact Nigel Middleton. All winners, just send him your PayPal emailadres just to be sure he knows who belongs to what.

    Looked arround for some tracks, but it seems they are very difficult to find.
    Any idea where to find them? I think the best ones are the ones chosen for the 1979 series.
    I know there's an old donington version of the track, but i can't find it.. maybe i'm wrong, maybe for rF1 (don't know)
    I'll keep looking.

    BTW, any news about the prizes?
    Will you go with the 1975?
    When?

    Yes, SRO will go with a rFactor 2 F1 1975 series, starting early september. But it won't be for prizemoney. SRO has handed out a lot of money in 2017 / 2018 to promoted the SRO site. And in that sence, we've achieved our goals in terms of publicity. But right now the money is reserved for site improvemend and updates for the rest of the year.

    But I do hope you will join the "regular" F1 1975 series. You are a good addition to the field :)

    Check!
    But it should be the other way arround, like a casino! SRO shouldn't "hand out" SRO's money!
    For instance:
    20 drivers (for example), 5e euros each (5e*20drivers=100e), top 5 double the money (5drivers*10e each=50e), the other 15 loose their fee (which would go to sro, i.e., the remaing 50e)

    Now you have a series with some incentive (which is always good no matter if it's only 10bucks), while helping SRO.

    Get 20 drivers, put out some choices (F1 1975, FR3.5, GP2, whatever), do a pole, the drivers choose, do a series!

    Prize or no prize, i'm in!

    That's a good idea. I will think it over.
