Blackhole Motorsports is an auto racing simulation team that has been in existence since 1997 when some of the founders met on the Ten Network and decided to create this site. We have members from different backgrounds and cultures, which makes being a part of Blackhole Motorsports a truly unique experience. One of our strong points as a team comes from having members from different parts of the world. We feel this gives us a broader perspective, understanding and appreciation for all forms of Motorsports.

The team of BHMS is a very diverse group of individuals that enjoy racing in many forms. This diversity carries over into the games we support on the site. Part of our success on the web has evolved because our members enjoy different forms of racing. Whether it Formula 1, Circle track or Rallying, one of us is on top of it. Some of the members have an extensive background in real racing hence the passion for simulation racing. There are others on the team that have no real racing experience but excel in other areas that such as web authoring, beta testing, business application, and editing.

Our main goal at Blackhole Motorsports is to provide you, the simulation-racing fan, the latest news and information, utilities, product previews and reviews (hardware and software) to enhance our visitors' experience in auto simulation. We also believe in creating a sense of community to share opinions and information. By establishing our public forums we have been provided the opportunity to meet and correspond with people from all over the world that are also involved with our sport. People come to the forums to share their ideas, talents and creations with others.

We work closely with many developers to provide feedback on both new and existing products. Not only does this give us insight into the latest products, it also gives the producers advice that will hopefully create better products for all of us.

As we venture into the new millennium, we at Blackhole Motorsports will do our best to continue to provide the best content for your racing simulation.
