    Welcome to Season 5, for those of you who were in BHR last season, welcome back, to the new comers, I'm sure you will find this team to be very helpful and passionate about our racing. The reason most of you are here is due to both your on track pace and commitment to turn up each week and give it your best. This is by far the biggest season at ROOZ and wether you are a seasoned driver or new to the series no one will have it easy this season.

    Although the teams championship is important to us we are all one big familiy here at ROOZ so we should all work together to improve our skills during the week as we want to race... and win again net the best opponents we can, but when we hit the track on Sunday night it's on. We will have a private chat convo for inside tips on strategy etc each week to give us an edge and help those that are a bit short on practice time.

    Our team is not completely finalized as yet but the line up to date is as follows
    Division 1
    @Beau_Albert @zampli
    Division 2
    @damo_heato @CobMcCool
    Division 3
    @Crunch @anarkie14
    Division 4
    @Tanktex @DekGT5mad @SPL Racing
    Division 5
    @Stiffsht @Footlong_warrior
    Division 6
    @Killercarlcox69 @mmm_homebrew
    Division 7
    @GTslideways @colin-50_ @maximuscatticus

    I would like to also announce @Stiffsht as your new Vice Captain so if you have any issues you can talk to him or myself.

    Our team colours are a silver car body (chrome is also acceptable cause it looks badass) with sublime green wheels.

    More drivers will be added to this list in the coming days as the draft process continues. I wish you all the best of luck.

    Best of luck to all BHR Racers this season, we came close last season, but with this line up, i think we may be able to go not 1, but 2 better!! Love this team so will be working hard to get some strong performances and ill be sure every week to upload a hot lap to hopefully help you all find a tenth here or there :) So boys, lets go race harder than a man possessed and get that teams title for the ROOZ Legend that is Bruce Hale! BHR BHR BHR!!!

    That would be awesome bobo, I know that we could all learn a lot from our resident alien. Also it would be awesome if you could design us a new team banner that we could put on our profiles seeing as though you are so damn good at them.

    We here at ROOZ pride ourselves on clean, fast and fair racing. Penalties can be harsh and ruin what may have been a great result. Not every corner is a passing opportunity and we are not racing against the lame GT AI. Give other drivers the same respect you would like in return. If the new guys could take some time to read the driving regulations at the link below. If you have any issues on track be sure to save your replay and view the incident before taking up a protest with your room captain or mods.

    The fact that all of you guys are here at ROOZ shows that you are all well above the driving standards of most GT players, but have you ever wondered what makes the aliens in Division 1 so damn fast? I think it comes down to being aware of what your car is doing at all times and how your actions affect the cars behaviour. I think it comes automatically to most of us who have been playing for years and if asked to explain what we do would find it hard to put into words.

    The alien master class thread below has some great videos from iracing that break down all these things that we do without thinking, I know that GT is a bit different to iracing but the ideas are still the same. There will be a bunch of stuff that you will already know like apexes and turn in points but there might be a few tips that can shave a few tenths of your laps times without trying too hard. With such close racing at ROOZ and stacked grids a few tenths could be the difference between running at the front of the pack or mid pack in your divisions.

    They are only pretty short videos but well worth a watch.

    Just remember that, here at ROOZ, we are all one BIG team. So while you may use private conversations for team tactics etc, you should never disallow anyone from participating in anything.
    This is one of the reasons all 'team practice sessions' will allow any ROOZ member to come along and have a chat/drive.

    Remember, if anyone asks for assistance/tips/help, you should be happy to provide!

    Hat was eluding to no private club lobbies should be used for team practices as it would mean only members of that club would be able to see and join it. Team practices should be held in either open or friends only rooms ( stability purposes ) thus allowing other ROOZ members to join if they so wish.

    I personally, don't see an issue with it.... i get where you are coming from though with everyone should be allowed to join a ROOZ room and be welcomed, but i still think private lobbies should still be ok to have.....

    Bottom line, try not to exclude any ROOZers. If there is a room open with space to join, the more the merrier!
