I'm thinking of making a new league with 100% races, and 2 cars mainly for people who live on the westcoast.
I only like 100% races, and the leagues that have them are too early in the day for players from here to manage races if they are at work, so I was thinking of having races later in the day.. Maybe 6-8pm PST (2-4am GMT).. I could be a little flexible on that though, so if your serious then let me know what works for you and I'll try and figure something out.
All are welcome of course, so if those times work for you let me know if your interested.. Also feel free to make any suggestions for other options, like season break and etc. If I get enough interest I'll make the league sometime this week.

Just to let you know, as I have tried this forum "advertising" thing, that not many respond to this apporach. Most that read the forums are already committed to another league. What worked best for me was just starting the league and seeing what happened. I started a 6;00 pm mountain time 0:00 GMT league hoping to get US teams and mostly got European and a few South American teams. American teams are hard to get. I also like 100% and 2 cars. Maybe even later would work. You won't know until you try.

Leslie is right, but it's not impossible to find interested people. Personally, if 2-car teams are accepted, Promotion/relegation rule is active, and races start between 19:00 and 22:00 GMT -5 (Bogota, Lima, Quito time), then I'm in.

Thanks for the advice guys.
I made the League and its called 'Americas F1'. Races are at 6pm Pacific standard time, or 1:00 GMT. Promotion/relegation is active, and I did a 3 day season break and everyday races.
@ Julio: The races fall right in that time area, so come on in :)
Its unfortunate that there aren't more North American players, but I'm hoping to attract some from South America as well. All of the current league running 100% races start before I get home from work so I cannot manage them. Maybe I can find some other westcoast players with the same problem..
So far I have 1 other in rookie, and 1 in pro.. although it'll likely be hard to fill pro so I'm not sure he will stay long..

After I am finished in my current league I might be interested in a league that has a Daily or Weekly format. I am in California -- 6PM PST is too early for me since I am just leaving work at that time. An evening race during the work week, at 8-9pm would be cool. Though... my current league runs 10AM PST Sunday races and that works out well I think.

David, if you wait until you win our league,then you will be going to this new league as a pro and may end up being there by yourself at that tier.
