New VRC PRO - Check it out!
GRADUAL LAUNCH OF VRC PRO
With beta testing just around the corner the VRC marketing team, headed
by Tim Bervoets, is now focusing on the launch of VRC Professional.
The launch will be phased out over a 3 to 5 months period. At first the
most active VRC racers will be invited to upgrade to VRC Pro. Next a
second layer of active VRC racers will be added, etc. At one point the
new VRC Pro users will be able to invite a limited number of their
friends into VRC Pro. After 3 to 5 months VRC Pro will become available
for everybody. The reasons for this gradual launch are two-fold. First
it gives our development the possibility to adjust structures and
software where necessary based on early feedback of the first users,
and second, we expect these first users to become active players in the
new VRC WORLD social network community so by the time large numbers of
VRC Pro users enter the community there will be a solid base of
experienced users who are able and willing to assist new users in this
new and exciting r/c racing world. Interested to be among the first to
get involved with VRC Pro? Make sure your activity level in v3 is up!
QUARTERLY PROGRESS MONITOR
At the start of the 4th quarter 2008 VRC will introduce the Quarterly
Progress Monitor, or in short QPM. All VRC members will be asked to
cooperate with this project in order to monitor not only your own
progress, but also the progress of the social network community and to
find out where the VRC development team should focus on to improve VRC
or the services around it. Every first week of a new quarter the
members will be presented a list with the same questions with easy to
use checkboxes. Filling out this list will take just a few minutes but
it will provide VRC with a lot of essential information about how you
look at VRC and where we need to improve. At the end of the first month
of the quarter the results of the QPM will be published together with
an action plan for further improvements. VRC members determine the
future of VRC!
