    Congratz on the win and the promotion to D-class AC.

    I upload pictures to photobucket then copy the code with prefix IMG between square brackets and paste that on the forum to display the image here.
    There are other image hosting sites which may be better or worse. photobucket seems decent enough to me.

    its just echoey when you still got the button pushed and we hear ourselves back through you speackers.
    I got my headset from PC Casegear Basil, on special for $80 7to1 gamecom from plantronics, sound unreal and they have some way of picking up other sounds in the room. So even if i have them turned up i can still hear the kids fighting and my other speakers.

    ? Not sure why, the "speackers" should be muffled by my ears, but then there's not much between the ears so it prob comes out my mouth and back into the mic, just a roundabout of acoustics hey
    Maybe the "echoey" or other probs is a setting in teamspeak that needs adjusting that I'm unaware of? maybe whoever doesn't have probs with theirs can post a pic of their settings page in the teamspeak thread?

    Anyhow... How much would u pay for that setup? is it worth a look?

    Also thought some of u fellow oldies that remember Amaroo Raceway might be interested in this piece of Aussie motoring history

    1983 AMSCAR Sports Sedans Series, Round 2 Amaroo Park Raceway, The Winner is My Uncle Bob Stevens (as in the name on the windscreen of my avatar), Poor Quality but those were the times

    And Col I think what "Kosta" was saying was you might not notice your mic costs $5 , but we do haha.

    E. Have moved your posts to the General section to try and keep the skins thread on-topic.

    We don't have any skins for any of the rookie cars. And you won't be able to drive anything else until you get your safety rating and subsequently license class up. Plus you will need to 'earn your stripes' so to speak. So just sit tight on the skins front for now. There is a pattern picker, sponsor logo selection, and a 3 colour pallete built into iRacing for you to customise your cars to some degree. That should keep you going for a while.

    As for the rookie series, most of it is fixed setup so there's not alot of help you need that will require anyone to 'lag back' with you. But if you jump into team speak we'll be able to help you out with any queries. If you add our names to your friends list we might even jump into a practise session with you.
