New Members Introduce Yourself Here

I am a professional commentator currently working for Downforce UK. Also, I am mainly here for one race in particular. - I want to participate at Indianapolis in your upcoming Indycar series. I can't make any of the other rounds, just Indianapolis. Can anyone please put me in touch with someone who will have a seat open for this race? Thank you.

 

Thanks

 

Welcome Tyler

 

1. What is your name?
Joseph Wright

2. From what country are you?
England

3. How did you learn of Sim Racing Online?
When looking for professionally organised rFactor 2 leagues

4. Can your computer handle the newest racing games or only older games like rFactor 1?
Oh yes, indeed. 120fps+ on most simulators at Ultra quality including rFactor 2 and Automobilista

5. What sim(s) do you like the most?
rFactor 2 and Automobilista. They are similar yet so different.

6. What kind of racing type do you like the most (Single class / Multi class) or something else?
I prefer Single class, and primarily Oval racing (Strange for a brit, but hey ho) yet there is a lack of oval racing on the online scene outside of iRacing (which is too expensive for me)

7. What kind of car(s) do you most like to drive (Touring car / GT's / Prototypes / Open wheel) or something else?
NASCARS and Indycars are great fun, yet I like any open wheel car you put me in and GT's as well. I'm an all round guy really.

8. What are your favorite 3 tracks and in which game?
Brands Hatch, Charlotte Motor Speedway, Imola (only very recently after a offline endurance race there). Mix between AMS and rF2. rF2 being the oval of course!

9. Do you like short races (30 min) or long races (90 min) or something else?
Long races are my cup of tea. Strategy and driver errors play a huge role. But short sprint races every now and then keep the pressure on and mean you cant sit back and wait as much.

10. When did you start sim racing?
In around 2011, when I first watched racing. I saw an F1 event at Singapore, and went out and brought F1 2011. Very soon got onto a racing wheel and like they say --- the rest is history.

11. What is the best day / time for you to race GMT?
Any day in the evening time. And on the weekends I can race all day pretty much!

Additional information about yourself:
Still a sixth form student studying ALevels. I commentate a lot of events for RaceDepartment, as well as heading off to University next year to study broadcast journalism with the focus in radio. I love to race, but don't get to do it much. Let's hope I can change that here! Just signed up for the Indycar 2014 series. After completing an Indy series last year at RD I'm looking forward to a new challenge, and nice to see a familiar name there too @Andrew Harper!! I do love to stream my races, however, I do fail massively when doing so. I'm always a better driver when I'm silent and paying attention to the race! I absolutely love commentating motorsport races (wierdly, more than I do taking part in them myself) but I'm here for the many leagues and professional organisation. Let's do it!

 

Welcome to all newcomers

 

Welcome guys!!!

 

I will have a little drive in the car before making any decisions, but that date does not seem to be busy in my book, so I think I will give it a go. I've had experience in these cars at a variety of circuits, so looking forward to it. A word of warning from experience. Don't put your tires onto the apron at the start finish line otherwise you do more backflips than a competitive diver at the olympics. Plus you should always stay on your toes on ovals. Loved my race at Fontana no matter how much I had to fight the car. Again, I need some drive time before I make up my mind 100% as I don't want to be a danger to anyone else
