RoFONS- Important Announcement

[Ataxia]

Alright, i don't got any drivers young enough, and for this season i will not create a new one, so the second seat is available.

Might as well nominate a driver...

Name: Deividas Lukauskis
DoB: 9th February, 1998
Nationality: Lithuanian
Racing Career: 2014 - 5th in F3 Euroseries, 2015 - 6th in AutoGP

Oh i forgot to confirm, but he's hired (unless he's already taken)

Yep, that's all good for me.

[FMecha]

Mecha's drivers are Hendra Naufal (ID) [yes, he's moving here after feeling unhappy at F3RWRS] and Wayne Rosberg (CA).

Both car number's will be 15 and 16 respectively.

[Gerudo Dragon]

Benson: 98
Hodges: 99

Right, I haven't forgotten about this. All I need now are: Red Bull World Racing Team's (eurobrun) drivers and numbers; Team Rojo's (adriojim) second driver; DSR Racing's (pycku) drivers and numbers; Dofasco Racing's (The Lukas) drivers and numbers and finally Euromotor Racing's (FantometteBR) numbers.

[Nessafox]

I have forgotten about this one too and entered Simon Garfuünkel in GT-series instead. All my currently unused drivers are rubbish, so i guess i'll have to create a new one. I once or twice mentioned Wim-Bert Horrie (dutch), so he's going to be the driver. He is going to be racing here because "it's a shame nobody wants to sponsor him, despite that he has proven himself a worthy champion in MarioKart'.

[adriojim]

I'm open to any driver interested in taking Rojo's second seat.

[The Lukas]

Any news on this, TFTW?

Any news on this, TFTW?

Yes, I'm still waiting for Pycku, eurobrun and adriojim to finalise their entries.

However, due to the total lack on interest in this really, I'm not sure whether to go ahead with it

[FMecha]

^Eurobrun is currently inactive since he messed up his email. You can issue them random numbers, if you want.

The second seat goes to Elisa Pascale, Italian, number 10.

The main story of the first day of testing was the total lack of appearance from either Red Bull World Racing Team or DSR Racing. These two no-shows took some of the sparkle away from what was, all told, a good day for Mecha Grand Prix, as their two drivers stormed the opposition, with only Rockwell in the Skyvault Racing getting within a second. The Skyvaults, Rojos and Rick Lee cars took the 6 places directly behind the runaway Mechas, so if RBWRT and DSR stay away all season, the battle for best of the rest could be interesting. Rakowski was 9th in the Dofasco, which is impressive, given that he beat his teammate Swiatek, who's no slouch, by nearly 2 seconds and 7 places. The GTIL cars were hard to separate, but it looks like Horrie has the upper hand slightly over Lukauskis. Offaly in the solitary Restov didn't disgrace himself. The CBRT cars were also hard to separate, only a couple of tenths between Graves and Faber. Finally at the back, we had the two Euromotor cars, separated by the Dofasco of Swiatek

[pycku]

WEll, sorry about that, I've been not very active last couple of days.

However, I'm nominating these drivers:

Ezequel Palacio (18 y.o. from Argentina) and Asbjorn Sakshaug (19 y.o. Norwegian).

RoFONS series in collapse shock!

The racing series RoFONS was cancelled indefinitely today after the collapse of the holding company which owns the sport, EMR Holdings, amid accusations of shady dealings and money laundering.

The series was due to start shortly after the start of the F1RWRS series, with it being billed as the first step on the path to fame in the RWRS universe. However, the drivers signed up for it looked more a motley crue of club drivers than the future of motor racing, and with very little interest being shown in the series, doubts were raised about the financial viability of the project.

Two weeks ago, chairman of EMR Holdings, Eric Miller, was arrested on suspicion of money laundering, amid other offences, and since then EMR has been liquidated. This means that, short of a miracle takeover bid, RoFONS has died before even being born.

OOC: Honestly, I couldn't be bothered. And judging by most peoples reactions towards this, I'm not the only one that thinks that way. Thus, it makes no sense to keep plugging away at it if no-one is getting satisfaction from it.

If anyone was actually looking forward to this, I apologise
