Great work mate! It's easy, but time-consuming, isn't it?! :D --Mal mckee 10:33, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Ye man, its quite fun though! I've always wanted a place to document my GPVWC career. Thanks for those templates :)


Hey Joe - just asked you a question here: File talk:Consiglio Stealth 03.png :) --Mal mckee 23:00, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

New graphics

Take a look at the 2008 Superleague season, Joe .. the calendar I think it is. I've added some graphics, which should just be in Category:Images.

Also, take a look at the bottom of my page - something there might interest you. ;) --Mal mckee 11:33, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Very interesting mate! --Joe consiglio
Interesting enough, though yours would be much more interesting! ;) --Mal mckee 11:57, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

Controller

Hi mate, I was wondering if you could update the drivers SL boxes to show if a driver uses Steering Wheel FFB, Steering Wheel Non FFB, Keyboard or Joystick. For example sometimes I look at new driver (like maybe Bart de Vos) and think 'I wonder if that guy is a keyboard driver or a wheel driver', doing this might help. What do you reckon?

Yeah - I plan to do that. I think, by the way, Bart uses a joypad, though I'm not 100% on that. Sorry I haven't noticed this message until now btw. :)
I also found something that might interest you - I found the old wiki we used to have, hosted by Juha, on the Wayback Machine. I've put the details on Chris's discussion page here. --Mal mckee 22:19, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Photorealism

Hey Joe - I've no idea how skilled you are with Photoshop, but I've taken the time to fix up a couple of screenshots:

  • Millar Syn 2011 01 PR.jpg
  • Consiglio Britain 09 PR.png

I think if you look at them, especially in a larger size, you can see they have a slightly more photorealistic look about them. If there are any images you'd like me to do a similar thing with, let me know. --Mal mckee 12:31, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

Curious

I just noticed that the info I took from Ted's old entry on Stealth F1 had you down as an English driver. I seem to remember you driving as that in the past, and then you changed to Maltese. You were born in Liverpool, yeah.. which makes you British by default, but to (a) Maltese parent(s)? Which would have made you eligible for Maltese citizenship, yeah? Will also drove, I think, variously throughout the years as Welsh and Irish as well as Italian! In fact I'm pretty sure some of the info I copied from the old wiki has him down as something other than Italian! --Mal mckee 22:00, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

Lol, to be honest I don't know what I am! I have lived in England all my life but both my parents are Maltese so my ethnicity is fully Maltese, not English. I visit Malta regularly as I have a lot of family out there, I can only speak bits and pieces of the language though! Having said that, in Malta, English is as widely spoken as Maltese. I guess I could apply to have dual nationality (like 2 passports), but seeing as Malta is in the E.U. there's no real point, lol. Anyway I chose to represent Malta because it's such a small country and we rarely do well in any competitions ;)

Btw, did you get my 2 latest emails with a proposed fuel consumption development plan? What did you think? --Joe consiglio 22:14, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

I did indeed get the e-mails. I've read and understood them, but I'm going to take a day or two to digest them! ;)
Handy to be able to have more than one nationality btw. :)
And Malta seems to be doing just fine in the GPVWC!! ;) --Mal mckee 23:21, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
I never raced as Welsh - only Nordsjoen was based in Cardiff as that's where the headquarters (i.e. my house) was based. --William ponissi
Any thoughts on the photorealism by the way? --Mal mckee 23:21, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
The photorealism looks really cool mate. Sadly I don't have photoshop, I use an old version of paintshop pro. It's limited to say the least, lol. --Joe consiglio 09:38, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Statistics

Interesting stats, huh? ;) Thanks for your help with them by the way. :) It's starting to take shape. --Mal McKee 00:47, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Personal records and official records

Joe, I was thinking that many of us are stats-crazy! We like to have records of our best (and worst, because we want to improve) achievements. I have, at the bottom of my own page, a table of my official results. I was thinking that we could put these results on a sub-page of our driver pages, and make a link to it in the main articles.

I'll create an example for you on your own page. Feel free to delete or changes as you see fit. --Mal McKee 06:39, 29 November 2011 (EST)
