Very true Meyer and thanks for the offer of helping.

Back to my first post here this 'Club' is open to everyone to come race in all events. Seniors are asked to be patient, they already have championships to battle in. Only ar*eholes are unwelcome.

Ohhh look more fuel for the Ghost bike addition discussion?

Just imagine having a Yan lap ghost bike to load and follow.

Trouble is no doubt - how much arcade is wanted in a sim?

I'm sitting on the fence with this one.

Possibly someone could create a netbot type bike that can feed of an existing recorded telemetry stream, then you could have an extra rider to practice against without effecting  the current sim structure.

Back on thread...
General view seems that a rookie cup would be the best form of rider nursery - one bike, one setup might keep the chaos to a minimum and level the field ? 

I know club races are 'open' but have you ever met a racer who is not very serious once he has his 'race face on'  and i think it is probably difficult to remember just how wobbly early experiences with GPB are especially as newcomers are leaping in with the latest beta which even experienced old hands have criticized for being difficult.

Nice to see everyone offering support, proper club spirit

Only jokeing mate your far from an arsewhole

What about red bull rookies cup season 2?? Now on moto 3

+1 on another Rookies Cup Champs! 

I remember many moons ago now when Arvoss promoted the Rookie Champs.... It was brilliant! Great racing! 

Question is: Do we hold it with the 2 stroke 125's like before? Or go with the Moto 3 bikes? Personally I'd rather ride the 2 stroke 125's(if they are rideable since beta6?).

BTW.... Were is Arvoss these days? Anyone know?

Whatever is the easiest to keep upright and on track for a few laps would ensure the closest racing and the largest number of finishers

What constitutes Rookie status is actually currently being considered at a club meeting! Feel free to add your thoughts. And no I don't think you are a Rookie lol.

Thanks yeh maybe not a whole one yet!

Hmm Moto 3 is a good idea bit more stable than the default 125's (??) , although I would prefer to use them (the 125s) personally (like Hawker has just said), really.

Haha was a joke mate! No worries, i guess i have got to peace with not being a rookie anymore

But what about a few master riders, who are in there to help up the pace, but not racing for positions, more as a guideline?

Would be great help for newcomers seeing different lines and ways of riding i think

Exactly what i was thinking, going in front showing lines and stuff and also going behind seeing the riding and giving tips from that

SuperTaranta actually did that with me last week at Aragon I followed him and then he followed me.

He said my lines and braking points were spot on. So maybe I didn't twist throttle enough to get 4 seconds slower lol

Maybe he was just polite! No you are pretty spot on, you just need little setup and then to go faster trough and out of corners, i catch up on you a lot out of corners and on straight, breaking is not where i win the most against you

But many times people brake too late and lose time because they are too slow mid-corner and can't go on throttle early enough.

But i think that would be a way for more "experienced" riders to help newcomers

[Napalm Nick]

Thanks its nice for some feedback - -so the whole point of this thread is being proven here and now lol!

I just don't have the confidence in the front end to push through corners, I gave that up long ago after countless front end washouts. If I could cure that I know I could be up there.
