Overall for what you get the G25 is not expensive. Taking a look at prices of

parts for getting this done by yourself as for example VPP pedals will end at

least at about three times the price of the G25. I think the pedals are good

enough for racing, no need to upgrade, there are better ways to spend your

money. But before thinking to buy a G25 may be first you should buy S2.

EDIT: Here you can see pedals and their price, seems it ends at more then 3

times G25

OK, hurry up myself and join before next patch is out soon.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

As I said, cruising may be 'fun' to some of you (hate to generalise but it tends to be people who can't actually race)

May be there is a reason why I said in my post before "cruiser AND racer"

Just taking a look at ctra stats should show you its a big mistake thinking

that way. And to show my point of view, I cannot understand what

drifters find so funny but would never tell them, just let them have their

own way to get most out of LFS.

Quote from G!NhO :

i agree with you......its fun (sometimes) but a waste of time

Could not be 1 % waste of time than reading may be 95 % of your posts.

No matter you have nothing to say, just racing for postcount as it seems to

me.Never thought about using a ignore option but you bring me very close to.



Back to topic: So I am a racer AND a cruiser I can say both is fun at its time.

CTRA racing is really exciting and hard work at many times.

Cruising at CLC is relaxing, cooldown and just having many ways to act,

depending on the mood you are. Having cruises with trains of at least 4-5

cars or having some nice chases with cops (or as cops ).Trying to get

people flipped back on wheels after crashs, getting them safe back to pits

then, so many ways to have fun.

Asking me there are only 2 ways to shift on a G25. First , used in races,

is sequential by using paddles behind wheel. Second is to use H-shifter and

clutch what I enjoy really on CLC (a cruise server) But what I never use

is sequential mode on H-shifter.

Quote from ColeusRattus :

Also, if you have a Bronze License, the CTRA Baby UFR server is great fun, if you manage to catch it with a few racers on.

This was looong ago, since at least 4-5 month its free for copper as I told on

different places a couple of times before. So instead of spectating

a full grid in race 1 just join Baby-UFR and have lots of fun.

What I see every day

To speak for germans it is within a couple of minutes free after telling them

buying a S2. I bought a couple of them for friends living in countries

where this is not as easy as here. @ Troy, one of them was for a swiss

guy. But best idea seems to be using paysafecards for most of people

as it works instant too afaik.

Quote from only.one.RydeR :

I think (OK, this is what I hear from S2ers) that people are getting tired of the same config of the tracks (e.g. BL1+FBM). 7 corners and a really long straight just doesn't cut it for me. Maybe modify it a bit?

OK, someone said it before. There are ~ 800 different combos to go, most

people including myself did only may be 50 really more than a couple of laps.

For your BL1+FBM problem, do not forget you are in a demo version, full free.

Have you ever thought about buying a S2 ? To be honest this is the idea

behind a demo, getting new people to try and if they like it they buy it.

See, thats your major mistake. I would say you need more skills for slower

cars touching the limits. Good example is again the baby-ufr, it has only

80 hp which means every little mistake will follow you until the end of the

next long straight.

Guys, do not buy seats like that, better build yourself.

And for the graphics card , on my old pc (Athlon 2800+, 1 gb ram)

LFS is running very well in full-hd on a 37" philips lcd-tv with a 3650

No tuning parts is the best thing we can have, all drivers have the same car

and chances. Your higher level of racing should come by time and just

getting better. It is already possible to get the CD, just order one when

buying a S2. I like the idea of people just making LFS more popular on mouth

to mouth propaganda, so noone will just grab it from a table and not know

anything about yet. Another nice thing is developers need no big publisher

behind Greets P V L

Oh, just saw that here, let me show you my good old seat built originally

for Gran Turismo 2 in 99 Since that time only the wheels have changed

and soon I have to change the Car seat (VW Scirocco) which is done after

many hours of racing. A almost new one (Opel Ascona) is waiting in my cellar.

Sorry for the bad quality, I only have a old digicam. In my opinion this is the

very best way to get a racing seat and it is still cheaper than all that stuff

you can buy, not to mention it is more personal and fits lots better.

I paid 15.- D-Mark for the seat and 100.- D-Mark for the construction.
