Hello guys,
finally this seasson is gone.
Xose and I want to THANKS to all the teams involved on STC and all his enthusiast drivers. Also want to thanks to all the Team Spokesmen and Assistants, John Westerlund, Andreas Hultgren, Mikael Hellen, Vicent García, Maxime Boithias, Jason (Fallout Motorsports) and Günthar Rowe for his help & support with "staff stuff", press and technicall stuff. Special mention to Eckhart von Glan wich never miss a date with a race and has become the spirit and voice of the series closing the loop between The Black Rebels and Blue Flag Racing, founders of the STC concept.
For us this have been one of the worse seassons Xosé or myself could have ever expected when we decided to make an ambitious step forward last winter trying to improve STC, but also it have been a seasson to learn a lot from. There have been so many and diferent problems that at least we will know where to look at and what to modify in our attempt to get a perfect Black Cup 2010. Also this seasson have helped to get staff & teams in a closer situation to understand each other´s point of view a bit better.
Today I am partially happy because we have managed to get a good server in the last race of the seasson, what makes me expect the same for the first race of the Black Cup 10 and forwards. The Game Hoster have done a demostration of cooperation and good will with STC and we are really gratefull for it. As curiosity if you want to know what the problem was, it was that our server was hosted on a 64 bit operating system and not a 32 bit one... it was really dificult to find.
Now, after this little introduction I will make a short list with the changes we have decided to apply for next seasson. As usual I will ask you for your support and understanding, changes are never good for everybody, but the important thing is getting the right direction for everybody involved interest and we are sincerely looking for it, whether we are right or we are not.
These are the changes we have considered as needed or important for next seasson:
1.- Corvette C6R
2.- Porsche 997 RSR
3.- Ford GT
4.- Aston Martin DBRS9
5.- BMW M3
6.- Lamborghini Gallardo
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0LO4QS85 <-- MOD DOWNLOAD (there is a server up to test)
We will set a couple of test races between the end of June and start of July. We need to get full servers guys, stay tunned.
We are actually in need of some holydays, but we will be resting on a beach with a coconut shell full of rum looking forward for next seasson with big enthusiasm…
Thanks for reading.
Cheers,
David

These are the changes we have considered as needed or important for next seasson:
- Only 11 teams will have a STC license, B Teams will lose his spot and the server will run always with the standard 25 slots as we consider it is the casue if some of the problems in combination with the circuits. Half of the B Teams payed license for the current seasson will be payed back to the teams.
- MOD will be reduced to 6 race cars* from the current 20 race cars and will include aswell the 2 staff cars. With only 6 cars we can check and grant are bug free models. Tyres MOD will be improved aswell and the full package will be distributed to all the teams to do several testing in the next days. Only 2 teams will be able to choose same car and the choice for each team will be in order of the previous seasson stats, from last to first.
- Calendar will be not always 10 races and staff will have freedom to decide between 8, 9 or 10 races per seasson. It will be always decided at the start of the seasson and will be never modified during the seasson unless there are major cause problems.
- Attempt to increase a bit the staff to grant a better coverage in all fields.
- Some more features as Team Speak 3 and some new rules and details will come.
1.- Corvette C6R
2.- Porsche 997 RSR
3.- Ford GT
4.- Aston Martin DBRS9
5.- BMW M3
6.- Lamborghini Gallardo
