F1 Manager Game

[chippie]

Just started playing this, and managed to finish my first race 2nd and 5th, with no real set up, and complete guesses on the pit strategy!

now trying with a pit stop calculator for the next race, and hope to do better!

i wonder how many new teams GPMP got because of this thread. Its so addictive lol. I 'watch' the race while i eat my cereal in the morning, its become my routine now lol

So how do i go about developing my own chassis?

 

[Glaucus]

Component enhancment and start upgrading, it'll take a few seasons minimum.

Another 1,2 last night, another 1,2 in qauli. Got another sponsor. Finally upgraded everything suffeciently so I'm not using winnings to keep afloat.

 

[DampCat]

I dont have the option for Chassis under the Component Enhancements section.

 

[Glaucus]

All those part make the chasis in this game, so they all need upgrading a few times.

Doh' was just selecting suppliers for next season and didn't realise it coated money. Does it matter that I'm -2mill?

this is the truth, taken me 2-3 sets of upgrades one race development on each part to get to where i am at the minute which is roughly 7 parts upgraded at least twice each.

will take another season before my chassis beats anything i can buy.

however dont get comfortable dampcat i got something coming next race that should see me top the leaderboard for the rest of the season

shouldnt cost money till next season ?

 

[DampCat]

Power Steering/Traction Control? Cause meh.

 

[memphisto]

nope

I do have power steering but is illegal this year so i havent fitted it, however I have been developing my own engine

 

[DampCat]

Well good luck with that

 

[chippie]

hmm, using a pit stop calculator didn't work. Maybe I used a rubbish one.

What calculator are you guys using?

 

[memphisto]

one dampcat developed which is very good im sure he'll send it to you if you ask him

 

[Glaucus]

Yah I was in the green, only thing I did was select suppliers for next season, now I'm 2mil in the debt. I would have thought it wouldn't of coasted me anything till next season.

Ah...

Dampcat, any chance you could send me your pit stop calculator. My email is in my trust.

Thanks

you sure i was for next season and you havent swapped them for this season ?

looks like you have ferrenzi, mercey and maverick ?


im sure you didnt have those the other day so maybe you've swapped for this season mate and not next ?

 

[Glaucus]

DeFf next season, same suppliers as this year, now I can't race due to insuffecent money, and I can't get a big enough loan. Just as I got everything where I wanted.

I swapped to those suppliers after a 1.4mill sponsor.

 

[memphisto]

really have no idea mate, theres no reason why it should have cost you money, check yer profit and loss anything showing in there ?

 

[Glaucus]

Doesn't show spending

 

[memphisto]

post about it in the bugs section mate, if theres anything amiss the mods can refund you i believe, hopefully before the race tonight.
