hi folks,
as the redirect from RSC is "kaputt" because of site maintainance,
here's the link to the RASCAR site in case you've lost it:

RASCAR league website moved during RSC maintenance
Uwe Schuerkamp posted a direct link to the RASCAR website because the Race Sim Central redirect and forums were down. Comments about the site's hard-to-read menus upset site maintainer Jurjen (JLe), who said he volunteered his time and wanted constructive feedback. Others apologised and discussed adding replays and a rookie-of-the-year award.
Automated summary.
Looks like the forum is down too.
Also, the menu's are still broken, or is that just on my end ?

The forums are hosted at RSC, so naturally they'll be down, too.
As for the menu, I think it's safe to say that those are "broken by
design" ;-)

This is getting way out of hand, who cares what the bloody buttons look
like. Obviously nobody cares about a new design anyway.
The first one that makes another remark can have the damn job.
Oh, ok.
Can we 'fix' the design :)

Sorry. No offense was intended hence the "wink smiley".
It's the old beauty being in the eye of the beholder thing.

Appreciate the apologie.
Disclaimer:
I actually put in my FREE time into this (including updating the site).
The only reward I can get is some feedback, positive or negative.
But all I got is people backing off, and/or making fun of it.
And when this accumulates in a remark implieing I neglected the
substance something triggers ...

The new design threw me at first. Wasn't sure till I played with it a bit,
then realized it was intentional. With the changes to the site address and
such I was not sure if this was a final design so have been waiting to see
what else may be coming.
The only thing I would like to see is replays posted.
I like the design personally, it is different enough from what is common in
design practices to set it off, I like that :-)
just my $0.02
Sean <-- has done enough design work to appreciate the time this takes.

Thanks for the feedback Sean :)
As for the replays - we're working on that, it's got something to do with
Extreme Server.
Still got a lot to do about the site.
I'm doubting wether or not to put up the RA race-analyses again too if
anyone's interested ??
And what about a ROTY contest (who wants to be a rookie) ??

No doubt I qualify as a rookie. With my spring schedule shaping up the way
it is I will probably still qual as a Rook next year.
I would like to ask at this time that Rascar allow me to maintain my status
as a member even though my appearances may be few for several months now.
