Can i apply or is it too late? i'm sendind the mail anyway, hope to get a chance.

Now i'm sure i'll have the time you require, thats why i didn't apply before, i wasn't sure about that.

i'd love to help my favourite game ;)

A bit too late, but if anyone drops out we will be happy to bring new people in to replace them!

By the way, it looks like it may be Tuesday or Wednesday at the now. Sorry if I got anyone's hopes up for Monday. There are just a couple of things which need finishing off before it is fully ready for testing. It shouldn't be any later than Wednesday.

The wait won't be too long if you aren't able to participate in the closed beta testing. I believe the closed beta is intended to last only two weeks and then it will be open to all of iGP for open beta testing.

That is correct, roughly two weeks. Although it may be best if we at least complete a whole season first (17 days).

In March, but it is not definite exactly when, that will depend on how the closed beta goes.

It's all good. Jack's been posting more often these past few weeks on the forums, which sounds like excitement coming from him right now, and I like that. He must be feeling so much better than the slump he may have been in with the struggles of the past few years.

Can anyone subscribed like me spectate those test races? 
or
Will those reaces be recorded as a video? 

Take this as a suggestion, maybe those who have the possibility to record the race should do it. 
This could be used as a tool to see how things happend. 

Or well, will i have the chance to see the results? (text or anything)
I'd love to watch those races hundreds of times to help.

Please, if you find the way I could help, just let me know.

Don't waste time if the answer is 'no'. I understand how busy you are ;)

Thanks,
Dan

I'm willing to bet the closed beta is stuffed to the brim with managers ready to perform beta testing, which is probably why Jack says if anybody drops out a spot will open up.

The testers will report any bugs that they find, and sometimes suggest additional features they think should be available in the final version.
They are not there to have fun or get an upper hand over anyone else.
However they are encouraged to make videos & write blogs about their experiences in the closed beta not only to promote the game but also to draw in ideas on how to make things better or more interesting. :P

If we manage to open it to the closed testers tonight (we are trying our best, but it's a rush to get some things ready!) then the closed testers will be able to start trying the management screens quite late tonight.

The first races on the closed beta will start in the next day or two.

Hit the nail on the head. :) We've come through the tough times and survived (most start-ups go through a phase like that), and we're now ready to get momentum going again and I'm definitely excited about this new game. There is so much more we can do with this new platform once it is complete, and it's not just exciting for the initial release, but for the long-term future of iGP.

We could probably get it online in about 1.5 to 2 hours, but it's going to be a very late night. Maybe we should leave it until tomorrow? What do you guys think?

I'm still going to be working on getting everything ready, I'm just a bit hesitant to let you guys in with a setup which I've only just finished putting together, rather than giving it a day of tidying up.

Well as much as I would love to, there is no way I will be staying up until 12-1AM in the morning. 
If left to tomorrow what time would it end up being? I havent recieved any emails since the confirmation document got sent.
