OK, signups are open to all teams now. Schröder, Dofasco and West Cliff can still sign up, but they're not guaranteed an entry any more from now on.

As a reminder, there is still space for 21 cars to be entered full-time.

4 LMP1
10 LMP2
7 GT

there are still 2 medium LMP1 privateer slots and 3 large LMP2 slots, as well as one big GT privateer and three medium GT privateer slots available. The number of small teams is only restricted by the size of the entry list.

EDIT: I need the nationality of your team too, just for the Wiki page.

Sorry, no space left for large LMP1 privateers. But you can be a medium LMP1 privateer team.

Just to say that West Cliff will not compete in this season, but would appreciate being high on the waiting list for the following season.

You're right, but as one of them is only a two-race part-time entry, I'll make an exception and allow Jones to become a medium LMP2 team.

You can submit an entry, but it would go on the reserve list. Getting an entry for thr 45-car races will be difficult, but some races, like Spa might have open spots.

Woo! I wasn't sure and guessed I'd been a bit late to the party but medium will do fine for Jones' first foray into sportscars!

Ok, there are still some open spots on the entry list, but I'll open driver signing anyway:

Template:
CAR NUMBER:
DRIVER NAME:
DRIVER NATIONALITY:
QUALIFYING DRIVER (yes/no):
DRIVER TIER: (Platinum/Gold/Silver/Bronze; leave blank if real-life driver; platinum/gold drivers must have previous PMMF experience)

There are so many different series, that it would be very complicated to create exact license criteria, but here's a little bit of orientation:

-Platinum: F1RWRS, F1 midfielders and top drivers, SARS, GT-R top drivers etc.
-Gold: Professional drivers with good results in higher racing categories.
-Silver: Good pay drivers with experience in higher racing categories.
-Bronze: Slow pay drivers who lack experience in higher racing categories.

In case that several different teams want a RL driver, a RNG will be run. Each car needs at least one fictional driver.

Hold on a second, do I have to buy a chassis and engine for each car? Because if that's the case I'll have no option but to downscale to a single car operation being on a medium budget.

Secondly, I'm interested in what will happen if I have Sammy Jones in the car. He's the team boss, so wouldn't take a salary but as a top line F1RWRS and former F1 driver he would be classed as platinum. Do I have to pay him a salary or can we negotiate some sort of discount?

For those unsure about how the series in the canon are ranked, here's some rough criteria for Platinum based on series prevalence. pi3141 obviously has last say on licenses. This criteria will become more important for other AFRM series.

F1RWRS
-F1RWRS Champion
-F1RWRS race winner
-F1RWRS top 10 finish overall in season
-More than 5 podium finishes scored

F2RWRS
-F2RWRS Champion

IFRC / RoLFS
-IFRC Champion

GTRWC
-GTR Champion
-GTR Race Winner
-GTR top 5 finish overall in season
-More than 5 podium finishes scored

RTCC
-RTCC Champion

F1RSTC
-RTCC Champion

SARS
-SARS Champion in class
-SARS Race Winner in class
-SARS top 4 finish overall in season in class
-More than 5 podium finishes scored in class

F1RICS
-F1RICS Champion
-F1RICS Race Winner
-F1RICS top 7 overall in season
-More than 5 podium finishes

RRT
-RRT Champion

AltF1 (Klon's AltF1, rFAF1 also, but I don't think anyone will opt to go back that far for drivers)
-F1 Champion
-F1 Race Winner
-F1 top 10 overall in season
-More than 5 podium finishes

FRENCH
- FRENCH champion
- FRENCH race winner
- FRENCH top 5 overall in season

Aston 24 Hours
- Aston 24 winner
- Aston 24 podium finisher

Yes, you have to buy two chassis and engines, if you want to run two cars.

About Sammy Jones, that's difficult. On the one hand, I agree that it doesn't make sense if you have to pay him. On the other hand, I don't want to create loopholes. And 250 000 is a significant advantage in LMP2.

I'm not 100% happy with either solution, but I'll have teams pay the lowest possible salary in the tier of the driver/owner, so 250 000 for Sammy Jones.

Rusty Gannit is controlled by tristan1117, I think, and you have to ask him first before I allow you to use Gannit. Also note that Mark Webber is wanted by Henri Racing Team too.
