SRD Lightnings

After long negotiations between SRD International and the champions in 2012 Team Lightning, it is official from the present day:
Both teams merge to counteract the sudden lack of drivers in her teams.
Team Owner of Team Lightning, Pete Hillesheim was spending a lot of time to compensate the departure of Kelvin Mace,who changed to the Wonderbolts.
Though a top driver is available to the Lightnings also like Alex Ballestas, but his participation in the runnings is still quite questionable on account of the ocular injury.

Also SRD International with Chris Hill and Mike Cooper had to recognise in 2012 which they had to announce with only 2 regularly starting drivers in the team evaluation nothing.

With it both teams 2013 again motivates to the start can go, there was for both only one real option.
Partnership and TEAMWORK !!!

The SRD Lightnings go of holding on the 28th of February in Daytona to her first running side by side to the start around the team cup with the old and new Lightnings.

Merging your team with SRD is the coolest thing you can do.

A team unless you have a specific reason for putting Sylvian in the B Team (Rule #3).

really

Quote:

3. Teams
Running in teams can be advantageous with regards to sharing setups and drafting at superspeedways. Teams must have at least two drivers in a series, and are limited to a maximum of five,. Only the top three team finishers score points for the team championship for a given race. Larger teams with more than five drivers in a series are required to run as two separate teams for points scoring purposes.

Team lineup changes are not allowed once the first race is completed, changes can only be made during series segments..

Yup we changed it at the beginning of the season, you, Pete, CJ & Mike equals 4 when I went to school, as nobody in the B team has raced yet, there's a spot for Sylvian in the A team, it doesn't seem much point putting Sylvian in a B team on his own.

Up to the Team Management ultimately, I'm just pointing out the advantages of not putting him in the B Team

The bit about lineup changes refers to say changing team drivers retrospectively based on race results, it doesn't cover the addition of a new driver to the lineup.

Pete Hillesheim · **Posted:** Sat Mar 09, 2013 9:03 pm

So,...make him to a A-Team driver,...thanks Ian !

Welcome Sylvain.

Nice to have you on board.
(New team members have to buy the drinks for the rest of the Team - Is that right Pete?)

Let us know when you can practice - We can start Drafting together soon!

Cheers,
Kind regards,
