Sirebel,

Dunno if you saw it but the prickly one reached out to you on the social/race team wiki board.

OP,

I recently joined a race team for the first time (same team Sirebel was on) mostly because, nearing Level 600 and at 100% progress for 18 months, I had gotten sick of farming and the game was getting boring since I have plenty of GC. I would not join a team for GC purposes, as stated above, your time would be much better spent farming at Le Mans. That seems to be the trouble with teams that are going after Top 10: the time requirements make it a chore just to stay on the team, and it is not as time efficient as farming. I am having fun on my team. I enjoy the social aspects of our team and as a bonus we finish in the GC positions most challenges without requiring 10-12 hours from members, and it is satisfying for me to race with a purpose: I am helping teammates who are not as lucky as me with game progress/GC in the bank earn some extra GC.

tl;dr version, join a team for fun, if you're not having fun, don't do it because farming is much more efficient for GC.
