I have installed a new Chat Room to the website!

A lot of people have requested this feature, and as it was so popular last year on the old site, I decided that it would be good to have it on the new site :)

You can access the chatroom frrom the left navigation.

This chat room has the added bonus of being hosted by US @ formula1sims.com... In the past we have always had problems with some chat rooms coming from free hosts which give adverts and other nuisances and the added bonus of having a professional host is that we can get rid of nuisances like this :)

Each 'chatter' will need to register an account, just like in the forums. So if you can use the same nick that you use in the forum it will make things a lot easier.

The chatroom also has the feature that allows us admins to BAN chatter if they get stupid. We can also screen registered members and delete their accounts if they shouldn't have access to the chat room.

At the moment EVERY visitor is entitled to enter the chat room, but if we get problems (as has happened in the past) with spammers and random idiots coming in and making abuse, we will put the forum to GPVWC members only.....so be warned :)

Obviously we can't all be in the chat room 24/7 ...so I have scheduled the following chat sessions.

Sundays @8pm [UK TIME]

Wednesdays @8pm [UK TIME]

I will talk to Jason ASAP to arrange a more suitable time for the 'aussies' in the league to have a chat session aswell.
