At this rate don't be surprised if The Arrow Motorsport bails next season. We've sucked for about 13 seasons in a row now...

You are an ICON in the V8CFL, James.  You are the Media Centre Guru.  Don't let the "reset" of the site knock you down.  The Media Centre will come back.

As for success..... mate, you won at Sandown this year!  You won the Tournament a few years back.  You choose the drivers and cars you like/follow.  Take your success as it comes and laugh at those who do not get it at the times you have your success.  You are the first guy I buddied up with on this forum.  I will always remember that and our conversations about the Sydney Thunder cricket team and your family pic.. 

Now, correct me if I am wrong, but back around 2008-ish when I first logged onto the old forum, you were the defending champ of the old fantasy league?

Stick around, mate.  You're gold - no matter how the stats shake out.  And stick with the guys you like in the V8CFL.  That's what makes the eventual win taste great.  I'd rather lose with the guys I like than win with the guys I don't like.

Lol I appreciate the pep talk. I'm all talk, though. I'm too invested and too passionate about the idea of running my own team to just give it up.

I do feel like Williams at this point though. Was once a team of glory (albeit with only one championship win, but also a Tourno win so there's that) but now consistently running back of the pack.

Bringing shame to the Mazda name.

Now THAT'S the spirit!  Things like this are also why I started the Tournament.  Yo might be bad in the table but you can knock someone's block off week in and week out.

On a different note, all - Townsville is up in a day, or so.  Rosters will be locked in soon.  Jockey for what positions you may wish prior to.  As of right now I am the only team with roster changes for this round.

Just a heads-up, men.  We're going to play this thing through until the end this year and come back out swinging in 2022.  If we have no more races in 2021 we will call it done right then.  Let us just hope we can get the series going again amidst "Pandemic II".

Getting us all back onboard, men, the next round of the 2021 season is nary a week away.  Remember, all team roster changes must be submitted prior to MIDNIGHT THURSDAY, SYDNEY, NSW TIME.

You have four allotted changes in Groups A-E and two reshuffles allowed in Group F.  Please review your rosters and note any changes in the applicable thread for doing so.

With Wanneroo off of the 2021 schedule, the Geographical Challenge is over after two rounds.  Congratulations to the Queensland camp in their victory.  In the three Geographical Challenge rounds, the first race of all three rounds had the Group A and B drivers thrown out.  However from here on out, the scoring will be as noted in the Rules thread.

HOPEFULLY we will be back up and running this next weekend.

Racing is racing and we have what we have.  Thanks for that racing spirit, Helix!

I know i am hoping/jockeying for a huge bag of points this next weekend.  If I do not get it, at least I am not out any money!

Let us hope the original masses who are still onboard make a claim to achieve their success.
