A brief statement about a message sent from RSC to GPLegacy regarding A1GP modding and not interfering with any mod making groups about this Mod, we have fulfilled our duty every time in the legal terms that bind us, we hold no connection (perhaps this attitude is why) with RSC and all we did, I personally, Sergio Bustamante, was inform the mod teams about the status of A1 and legal or illegal works with this trademark, next day we are to find a message less than "cordial" from RSC - Names not mentioned to protect them - while we have held no quarrel with RSC in our 3 years of participation in the sim racing community.
