I reckon the final product will beat Forza Motorsport 2 in the sim department, mainly because SimBin have always made there games sim like not a mix between sim and arcade.

When I am hosting, it depends on the month. However members can host un-official meetings where results can be written down.

Other then that the only other person who might need to host official meetings is the Asst Manager or someone else who wants to host when I pull out of a meeting.

And finally

With Sunday being the main day for meetings, there will still be chances where I will try to run official meetings on the following days:

Saturday
Monday - Any official meetings on this day would be hosted a bit later then the Sunday meetings.
Tuesday
