The W2W Racing Sim

[markwales]

Morning all,

Some of you may have noticed a new 'area' within the main section of the forum, the area is called 'Racing Sim'.

Upstairs in the members area the Racing Sim has been running for around 5 months, and has just started Season 2.

We currently have around 20 playing members, each player has a stable of virtual horses, which are trained, raced and targeted at certain events throughout the Sim Season.

I'm sure that the current members of the Sim will all say that they are enjoying the game, along with the challenge that it provides.

You can view the Sim website by clicking here (http://www.racingsim.co.uk)

We have our own online Formbook (SimForm), and our own online Betting system (SimFair) where you can back or lay yours or other stables horses.....and there' more being added to the game seemingly weekly at the moment.

If anybody would like to know more about the Sim, or would like to join the game, please post here or drop me an email or PM, and we'll take it from there.

I'm sure that many of you will enjoy the game, hence the reason it has been moved to the Non Members area.

One last thing, stables are limited due to the amount of work required to maintain the sim, so if you would like to join, I would suggest putting your name forward sooner rather than later.

Any Q's feel free to give me a shout.

All the best,
Mark.

By the way, if anyone's considering joining the game...it is incredibly easy to play, the rules aren't difficult in any way.....the challenge is though !!! :D

Hi Merlin.

Yeah no probs......if you go to the sim website at www.racingsim.co.uk then click on the link to email me (bottom right), I will send you the password to get in to the Racing Sim forum area so you can have a look around....

Welcome l'head!

Welcome aboard.

Mark.

[l'head eagle]

Cheers Mark.

Vegy, you know my lack of access at home from the football sim. Will this stop me playing the Racing Sim ??

[vegyjones]

What with all the figures you have to deal with,
it may make it very frustrating and very difficult!

But, see how it goes...

I keep all my horse stats on a separarte spreadsheet anyway,
so you could write them down and just use that as your starting point!

[l'head eagle]

What with all the figures you have to deal with,

Sounds like my normal method of horse selection :laugh

Cheers Vegy, I will find a way !!

[vegyjones]

Let's hope you're more successful in the sim! :laugh

[l'head eagle]

Let's hope you're more successful in the sim! :laugh:D

[TheOldhamWhisper]

Glad to see a few new stables joining in the 'fun' (and I use that term very loosely! most people take this game VERY seriously). It is FUN - the 'basics' are fairly simple - the tactics less so. Don't be afraid to ask questions - I'm sure that people will be only too glad to help.

[Workshy]

Definately, Its hard not to take this seriously and plotting campaigns is good fun :)

[markwales]

Fancy a challenge? Enjoy Racing?......then the Racing Sim is just for you !!!!

Season 3 starts NEXT WEEK.

If anyone else would like a stable for the upcoming season, let me know and I'll get you added.

I hope to hear from a few of the forum newcomers, you'll definately enjoy !!!

Check out www.racingsim.co.uk for a sneak preview of what is involved, plus you will have access to the sim area of the forfum with much much more in there.

Express your interest on this thread, or via email/PM.

[markwales]

[markwales]

Evening all,

We are rapidly approching the end of season 3 of the Racing Sim, with Seaon 4 to commence in just a few weeks time. There are spaces for a few more stables should anybody wish to join up.

It's free, it's fun, it's challenging, and it's great when you get that first Group 1 winner !!

If anybody would like more info, please drop me a PM, or an email from the contact link at www.racingsim.co.uk

Cheers all.
Mark.

[bigcumba]

Anyone thinking of joining the sim, but not sure - go for it - it's a lot of fun, you can take it as serious as you like, or as a bit of light hearted fun.... either way when you start getting the group winners it's a real buzz! You can spend a few minutes a week, or hours like some of the more dedicated players do - however you play it, it's great fun!

[markwales]

FAO New Forum members....

We are over half way through season 4 of the Racing Sim at present, and the game just gets bigger and bigger.

For more info go to www.racingsim.co.uk to have a look around, or drop me a PM/Email and I will forward you details of the game, and the forum password.

Manage your stables destiny......

Mark.

[vegyjones]

Manage your stables destiny......
OI!! :mad: You sure that's not copywrited??? :D

[markwales]

We are coming to the end of season 4 in The Racing Sim, and the door is open for new players to start the new season with us.

It's free, it's fun, it's challenging, and it's great when you get that first Group 1 winner !!

If anybody would like more info, please drop me a PM, or an email from the contact link at our website www.racingsim.co.uk

Cheers all.
Mark.

[markwales]

Just touting for business :D

[TheOldhamWhisper]

With Mathare's brilliant new spreadsheet, the game can be a simple as you want it to be or as in depth as you like. If you want to spend just half an hour a week on it, you can but you'll soon find that you WANT to spend a lot more time doing that final planning to grab your first Group 1 win!

[vegyjones]

And listening to Oldham cry in chat when his season banker gets beaten into 2nd place by one of Vegy's unsung heroes is also a treat! :laugh

[TheOldhamWhisper]

Still holding on to that dream Vegy :laugh

[vegyjones]

It'w what keeps me going Oldham :D
