[Chris Rodgers]

Hi all,

I'm Chris Rodgers, a 29 year old software developer from NZ. I've played racers since forever, but have only started online racing this year via Race 07 (wish me luck this Sunday as I try to hang onto a narrow series lead going into the final round of a NZ league in which I'm competing) and GTR 2 (only just bought this so that I could compete in an NZ series I wanted to take part in...round 1 was last night and was a disaster: I suffered terminal damage on a ram from behind 10 seconds into a 120 mile race ).

Not sure how frequent an attendee I'll be, but if times are convenient then I'll be keen to jump online whenever possible and try to not make too big a fool out of myself against you all

[Warren Dawes]

Welcome Chris, great to see a Kiwi here.

Don't forget to post a vote in the member poll above this forum. We want to see how many Oceania members we have here.

[Krzysztof Babij]

Hello all

My name is Krzysztof Babij (nickname: keybi). I wrote in this topic once when i was starting my adventure with simracing on the end of the year 2007. I had to resign from simracing for 8 months because of personal issues.

Now I am back and during 3 weeks when the internet connection will be established in my new home I would like to race with you again.

I am very excited and waitng for the time when I will connect your servers "first" time.

I hope few of you remember me. Best regards

Hey guys,

my name is Markus (race07 nick: Marky Meyers), I am 24 years old and I live in Cologne, Germany. I started with sim racing the early days with geoff crammond's grand prix series and later ubisofts (f1) racing simulation.
In 2006 I regained my interest in sim racing with race - the wtcc game, because I am a big fan of the FIA WTCC.
During the day I work as an IT Consultant.

Let's have some nice and clean races!

[Yves Larose]

hi guys, i thought it was time to present myself to you. my name is Yves Larose, i'm 40 years old and i'm from st-roch-de-l'achigan ( 30 north-east of montreal ) quebec canada. i'm single and with no kids and presently unemployed.

ok now time for my gaming history, first video game i played was when i was about 10 years old, its was the game with the bar and the little square ball in black and white lol. after that it was a few years after when i discovered the arcade game, damn i spent lots of money in those lol then came the my father first pc where i played 2 games, the first test drive and larry leisure suit and that was on 486 dx33 pc ( damn that made me old lol ). from there came the playstation with gran tourismo then one day i saw a formula one sim at the store call world circuit grand prix 2. at the time i didn,t even have a pc or a wheel so i played it on my brother pc. then came my first pc and my first wheel, a thrustmaster with no pedal just to lever at the back of the wheel acting as gas and break. i've played the grand prix 2, 3 and 4 for about 10 years but always offline since the game wasn't made for online playing.

in the meanwhile i have played many racing game on the xbox and xbox 360 but never online, i also tried gtr and gtr2 on the pc but i didn,t liked them at the time cause i was lacking some knowledge on how to set that kind kind of racing car. but in january 2008 i bought a new pc and tried race the wtcc game and i like it just to find out a few days later about race 07. from there i discovered nogrip website and started to learn how to skin and comparing my time in the hotlap section of the site. thats where i have met femto and attila ( many time challenge with femto ). thats where i learned about racedepartment and gave me the interest for online racing, so i bought race 07 and became a member here. so far i have done a few racing club race and i love the experience. i loved it so much that i decided to join the staff member for the racing club. so here i am now and hope to see you all on the racetrack

I'm a really big fan of the US and I'd love to share my passion with any US citizen here, Anyone can take my MSN and come discuss with me ;)
