Re: 2012 Team Chart/Silly Season Thread (ALL FULL-TIME CARS DUE 1/28)

When did I approve of this?

That time that you can't remember.

[pepsibottle1]

To take a quote from Smokey Unick, "You don't race cars, you race the rule book". If you take a look at reading the ARLA Carta and TM Canon commandments, you won't find anything regarding testing procedures and or manufacturer collaboration duiring test sessions. Last time I heard, I didn't need approval to announce that I was testing. Besides, North Wilkesboro is a non-ARLA track anyhow. Since there is nothing stated in the rules about it, it must be assumed that is therefore completely legal. To get ahead, one must think ahead.

Congrats, Brinson, you are now the ARLA equivalent of Chad Knaus.

Last I checked, I created Kivett and you never approached me for permission to use the name in a storyline with your own characters.

Your arrogance is not appreciated.

Fixed.

To blantanly cheat is one thing. To innovate within the constraints of what is allowed is a completely different matter. Haters gonna hate. And if I recall, Ken wasn't exactly the most liked man around the F1 paddock either.

EDIT: I tried looking for something about Kivett but couldn't find anything. I just assumed it was therefore up in the works. Yet the fatalistic flaw in the mindset of those who push the boundaries and "think ahead". Knowing that it is indeed your manufacturer now, I can see that I'm in the wrong. However, I think that to prevent furher confusion, there should be some sort of thread to identify the various fictional makes and who to go to regarding permissions. Looking for Kivett, one would find nothing (which is what I did before I posted). And yes, I do know about the rule regarding other member's drivers, before that is thrown into consideration. What is said about the various makes is much less clarified however and who is who to know which member created what make?

I don't know if I'm allowed, but could I run a part time for a couple races that aren't filled yet?

[Ceej]

I hardly have any cars for Japan.

HINT HINT

[flyingturns89]

I'd like to assume that's a yes, but I'm not really sure that I should assume so. Plus, I haven't really written a storyline yet.

Posted something like this earlier but:

Japanese team to race in ARLA.

It has been announced that Japanese touring car team Izumi Motor Sport is planning to enter the 3 ARLA races in their home country. They will run a Nemoto numbered 259. A spokesperson for the team has said that they are looking at several local drivers.

(this entry depends on approval from the league owner)

Clason Motorsports to ARLA?

Clason Motorsports, the team which fields Archer Harris' entry in TM Lights, is looking to get a part time schedule in the ARLA Elite Series.

"We're trying to expand our horizons, and run a few ARLA races. We'll take what we can get at this point." Tanner Clason, the team's owner stated in a press release.

"Once we know that we can run races and get our basic information sorted out, we'll get the kinks sorted out with sponsorship and such."

The team would most likely run a #79 Inglesby, as they did in their 2011 efforts with Cameron Sweetwater under the Random Motorsports banner. A driver is not yet signed for the team, but Clason is looking hard for talent. The team will most likely run the Japanese tour, and perhaps a race or two in the US depending on availability.

(This is all pending approval, of course.)

Well, I tried to have my driver split the ride for the Japanese races.

Welcome to the forums, Prawblems. Glad to see you're interested in ARLA, but I would recommend PMing Ceej first if you'd like to sign up for races this season.
Aside from normal races, there is the upcoming Rockford 200 which accepts one-off entries, and we have a Silly Season thread for 2013. These may be of interest to you.

"Even if Rockford is all we're going to have. We will gladly accept it. We will certainly look to be in other races through the end of 2012, but we know that it's in CeeJ's hands. We will respect and go by whatever decision is made, even if it is only Rockford."

Webster is planning on running the number 95 DOITZACK.com Saar at least for Rockford.
