WE NEED YOU!  Yes, you.  You could be the Tekforums F1 Champion!

We currently have 4 players, including myself, but we need a minimum of 10 people.  This is an browser based game and takes next to no time to play.  There are only two things to this game.  Moving some sliders and choosing your strategy.  You dont need to manage any budgets, worry about how crap your pit crew are at changing wheels or refueling your car.  Its just you setting up and racing your F1 car to victory!  

Once the game starts, the game ticks along in 24 hour intervals.  Initially you start with practice to allow you to tinker with your setup to try and get it Spot on.  Also, people can copy their teammates setup which can give a head start.  However, I think it may only be of great use if both of you have chosen the same character traits since one setup wont necessarily work for others.

There is a
Quickstart Guide available on the games website and will be useful in showing you the way.  The game also allws you to speak to your Engineer to get some advice.  You can see the pearls of wisdom they give in the picture below.

If there is enough interest we can have a quick game.  Its based upon F1 2006 carsets.  The aim of the game is to setup your car so you get the most points and become F1 World Champion.  It wont go on for months, its just a matter of days once the game is started.

Who is up for it?

I would but the forums take up too much time  

A daily 5 minute web game, is that it? (A good thing)

Sounds allright, but looks boring tbh. :?

You could just log on to www.fantasyleaguef1.com, pay Ã,£10 and potentially win Ã,£10k. Ive had a go for the last 3 years and come out with a mouse mat....wahoo! :-s But my mate won Ã,£100 and a crate of Fosters for been the first to get the highest score for a single race. You can develop your own friends and enemies leagues as well...

Its all a good laugh. Get joining :-)

Yes, its a couple of minutes per day.

And its not a full fantasy league.  You set up your car for practice and then qualifying and then the race.  Lots of factors come into play...

There is no budget, no team management its just your setting yo and driving your F1 car to victory!  You can choose 2 characteristics for your driver. eg Head strong and smooth.  You can set Front/Rear wing, gear ratio, stiffness of suspension, ride height.  Its all done through sliders so its very straight forward to do.

We need a minimum of 10 drivers.  It doesnt take alot of time to do so... And it doesnt cost a penny!

Im in    

How do you know when all the events take place, e.g Qualifying?

Same here.

How do you get the race to start though?! Its just saying "soon" on my screen.

Oh and nige..

Take a look at the practice results. I kicked your ass lol. Only thing is now that 2 of my tire sets are "heavy wear" so cant really use them for risk of them going BANG! on the track lol.

Bah, my tweaking all happens outside of the practice, its a rouse

Plus my driver had a mad skillz mistake and lost time on the last lap.

I have no idea what Im doing

lol me neither!!

Will take a look at it tonight

Ah its like the real thing.

1 session per 24hrs.

So practice on day 1, qualifying on day 2, race on day 3... rinse and repeat ad infinitium.

Huh, I guess Ill have to take a look at that later on tonight.
