Trinary Murk Racing

 
Introducing Trinary Murk Racing. Ever since the departure of Jordan GP from the F1 grid, its been calling out for a rub of the green! Since making his millions shorting the Irish banks in 2008 Jamie R had been waiting for the right opportunity to waste all his money.
 
In April of 2015 the opportunity came along in the shape of an F1 racing car. Having started off in the aptly named "Newbie League" it wasn’t long before Trinary Murk Racing started establish themselves as a team to watch on the grid quickly winning his first Rookie Drivers Championship. It quickly became clear though that a change of direction was required.

 
A bit like Eddie Jordan, the wheeling and dealing started and not long after, with the help of his backers Jamie R attained subscription status and entered the British Racing League (how ironic!!) in the all new Irish livery of Green, White and Gold


 

In only his second full season in the Pro levels of the BRL Trinary Murk GP managed their first Team Championship, with 3 wins and 16 podiums. Piping Vertus Racing to the post in the past few races.

 
A bit like Jordan GP, Trinary Murk Racing didn't enjoy the best start to his Elite status, but did manage a very respectable 29 points with an all-rookie driver line up evening managing a surprise win in Turkey!!. Season 2 saw a very strong run of results, but failed to emulate their race win of season 1. They did manage a very respectable 229 points and 3rd place in the Team Championship!! Season 3 was a season to forget with only 8 points.
 

Season 4 however and everything changed. Jamie's decision to stick with his rookie drivers finally paid off and everything just clicked. With an impressive 11 wins, Trinary Murk dominated the Team and Drivers Championship and almost double the points of his nearest rival and a 1-2 in the drivers championship.
 

Since then the team have had their ups and downs but have managed a respectable 4 drivers and 4 teams championships in 10 short years. Jamie R has at one point managed a rank of 29 in the World Ranking and has firmly established himself as the number 1 Irish Team, with 4 Irish Teams in the top 20!


But this success has not come without its controversies and difficulties.
 

Towards the end of the 2015 league owner and legend Doug Caster approached Jamie in respect to taking over the league…. Could he manage his growing race empire of 8 team while maintaining the BRL Leagues status of one of the best out there? Jamie jumped at the chance and never looked back.
 

Entering his 11 Season in BRL so many questions remain unanswered. Although he might be considered one of the favourites for what may be the last season before an expected rules overhaul, will his on one season, off the next form work in the future? Can he maintain the high standards he expects of his number 1 team, while still nurturing the growing pool of talented drivers in his junior teams? And most importantly can he maintain the high standards expected of the league host of BRL with rumours of personal life upheaval in the form of a new baby on the way!
 

Only time will tell….

my story actually started in sadness as i was trying to find a new f1 manager after f1 tm was going to shut down but never did(untill just reacently after im guessing the games develeper david adams gave up after the lack of people and how hard it was. only about 15 people were active. it shut down today). i found this and particapated in formula ludo for a bit. then my old friends at f1 tm said they were particapating in a new league called need for speed and I stayed there for I think 2 seasons before I came to where I am now and where I was before I had signed up. the MJL possibly the most active league around

my bases are all around Britain. Kenilworth, heritage motor museum in Gaydon and Oldham to name a few. every time a real world year will end 1 car of our 2 is given to a museum to inspire a new generation of racing fans. the 2nd of those stays at our showroom.last years car were given to the Coventry transport museum and this year our car is hoping to be at another one of our partners the heritage motor museum I told you about. also we have signed a partnership with Vulcan to the sky trust to sell some of their merch at our merch shop and give the some of the money to them.

edited and updated!

My team, DCR, exists in simracing leagues for about 12 years now. It started out in a league with good old Geoff Crammonds game Grand Prix 3, continued with Grand Prix 4 and after that with the Simbin game Race07.

It's name has nothing to do with David Coulthard, but with me being Dutch and my former teammate being Dutch but living in Canada. Hence "Dutch Canadian Racing" which became DCR in short over the years. It continues to have a mixture of Dutch/Canadian/American sponsors and the self made design as seen below is drawn on a Grand Prix 4 car and contended in 2005. Besides some minor tweaks, the design has basically stayed similar and recognizable through the years.

A year and something ago I came along iGP Manager and now it's almost 8 seasons done with 5 drivers and team championships in the pocket and the 6th coming in a few days. :)

A lot can happen in two years I guess. Lets make that 18 team championships and 14 drivers championships.

Still having fun out here. :)


And another 228 days later the counter is at 24 team championships and 20 drivers championships.

Not much to add aside from that. :)

My name is Robert Jackson, I am 22 years old, and I am the owner and principal of Jackson GT (Jackson GT stands for Jackson Grand Touring).

My team was founded on the 17th of December 2015 because the F1 Team Manager I used to be a part of, was in the phase of closing down (which happened in the beginning of 2016). Today the league where I am (MJL) will start, and that will be my 7th season in the IGP Manager. Last season, we were able to claim both drivers and constructors championship after a long fight until the last race.

Our F1-TM team originated from 2010, but I accidentally deleted the account in 2011 and started over a year later and stayed in the game until the game's shutdown at the start of 2016.

Back in F1-TM days, we've never been the best team, but a team known for bringing home good results every day (I was considered one of the best non-subscribers back then).

Our livery was usually
[list]
[*]A) white and blue
[*]B) blue and white
[*]C) blue and black
[*]D) black and blue
[*]or E) black and turquoise (during the Korbar era).
[/list]
Talking about Korbar: Jackson GT has been known as Korbar F1 for a couple of years back in the F1-TM days, and is now Jackson's spare team, having made their debut 2 days ago after being founded last week.

Our main values include balance and consistency. We don't have the most powerful car, but our parts always fit together perfectly. Also, we hardly ever change our driver line-up (this season will be the 4th in a row with the world champion Ben Pillay and Lukas Schröder).

We are also the namesake of the MJL Robert Jackson Awards that are awarded at the end of the season.

If you have any questions regarding me, Jackson GT or Korbar F1, feel free to ask!

Hey, it's time for me to reveal the story behind my team or .. No ! It's time for you to guess it ;)
To help you in this adventure let's start with some hints :
- all of my main teams are named "Drive" + something
=> what are their names and how many teams do I own ?
=> what those names are related to ?

- all of my manager firstnames are linked to something
=> what are they related to ?
=> what about the lastnames ? Is there an alteration ?

- all of the pictures are linked to the team name
=> what is the "title" of those pictures ?

Hard mode :
For the strongest of you I challenge them to find my junior teams and their very easy story.
Only high level teams with high level drivers (lvl 12+) are taken into account.
Spare teams with lvl 3 drivers/staff and wonder/chavon suppliers aren't :P

Reward :
You'll win exclusive internet (virtual) points and cookies if you like them ! In addition to that, the winner will gain my respect ;)
I'll reveal the entire story after a few days or the missing parts if you aren't able to guess it all. Thanks for reading.

Congrats to James Pinsker and Jason Chen ! They were the closest and both win the right to spend a weekend together in the only state to manufacture tyres in iGP : The Michigan !

-----

Once upon a time, a F1 fan was desperately looking for a game to express his passion but he only found disappointing browser games or too rare/old pc games. He even had the idea to create a browser game about single seaters, however that wasn't possible with intermediate knowledge in programming and close to zero in network so he had to give up. A few years later he finally found iGP and the adventure began !

He created his first team : "Drive Hard" and joined by chance the league where it will have the most success. : "International GP Championship". Then he created 2 other teams that made up a trio : "Drive to the Future" and "Drive Another Day."

He appointed their manager names as a tribute to a tv series he really appreciates : "Friends" and chose their lastnames as another tribute to a famous character from a film with a slight alteration in it, finally he added pictures of those movies and they were part of the team names.

After winning his first elite title and to have learnt about the importance of high talented drivers, he decided to create a junior team, the logic wanted him to create 3 teams : One for each senior team but most of all to achieve a total of 6 : The number of main characters in "Friends", the "family" was now complete with the addition of Monica, Phoebe and Chandler.

-----

The key part for me was to take fun and to share my passion while laughing and to make people laugh, and even if I lost much of my abilities because of health problems,Joey remains the closest character to my personality and the one representing me the most so I was really lucky to have him as my most successful team in the game. I created it : 2015/05/22 exactly 1 year earlier, today is 2016/05/22.

This was my story.

Wow nice. Like I said previously in reply #68, I discovered iGP thanks to Jeroen Kweekel's Youtube video inviting viewers to join his league AOR League. Jeroen doesn't play iGP anymore, but I'm glad to see him do so well in Formula Sim Racing.

Joey, would you care to reveal your real name? And I suppose you are French, since all your accounts are French.

I will the story of THIS team of mine (since I reached #1 in HoF for 2 days) when I have time. :)

I'm sorry Jason but I'd like to keep my identity secret, some managers named their account according to famous drivers or famous people, so I did the same and I don't mind if someone is using his real name or not, furthermore that lets place to imagination : For example I know that "Alain Prost" is not the real one but he hates Hamilton and maybe Barrichello as well, so my imagination can let me think he is :



The sure thing is that someone really disappointed me on this page and we can call him "Unfair Mario".

I understand if you don't want to reveal your name. iGP is about the only game where I use my name.
