Hi .. I think that someone should start a COV only race league on VROC. I'd do it my self but my system is not up to part to HOST. Whenever i go to VROC, most racers drive LOTUS, Ferrari, etc. and hence us novices who straddle Conventrys have no chance of winning. Just my two cents ..
Being a novice is just something everyone has to be till they get the hang of what they are doing. Don't let the "PROs" get you down. They are only PROs because they have run for a while longer then the novices. Give your self some time and you'll be a PRO. In the mean time, There can be only one winner at any race. That winner is the one that sticks around long enough to see the checkered flag. If you just try to survive odds are you'll come in at least in the top 10. If not the top 3. Just because you are a "Novice" doesn't mean you can't win. Case in point.. I ran a race at the Glen and qualified in 7th place. At the drop of the green flag two of the front runners go together and crashed. Later on some of the others got together and/or just plain lost it. I ended up winning the race just because I survived. just my $0.02 worth Mike Barlow

There is an online Cov league though it is a direct connection and not VROC. Be warned though there are some very quick drivers out there Go to http://homepages.nat.fr~estoril85/bjcindex.html Regards Mark

I'm not a big fan of one type of car races,let alone a league devoted to any one make. As for not having a chance of winning,you will still find extremely fast drivers able to turn 1:08s at Watkins Glen or better. I drive a Brabham for now,and hold my own everywhere except Spa. I've won against all makes at most tracks,and lost a lot more races everywhere. I'm never close to being the fastest car out there,but I usually keep it on the track for the whole race,forcing the competition to beat me,not beating myself. Joel Willstein
