Quote from Viper93 :

The last one was never a problem was fun to meet everyone in person =)

I don't see the big deal, fair enough if you guys are making judgements on people because you have already seen them face to face but how can you like/dislike someone so much from reading a bit of words on a forum? They may well be totally different than what their writing reveals here on the forum.

On a lighter side cmon people you know 'thisnameistaken' has a light sense of humour and his meanings should be taken lightly =) It'll be a fun day out if you want it to be.

I don't know what people feel about me but Dan I was hoping you would be going, your one of the more vocal people on the forum here and I was hoping to put a face to that name, ahhwell.


I will be going. I live near Oxford and willing to convoy up there. I am also willing to bring up to 4 passengers. It is a long ways off yet, hopefully I will do a mini get together for the Oxford area sometime sooner, nothing big, more like I am going on this date, meet me there if you want to gokart ad daytona type deal.

Well said mate couldn't agree more

Hi!

Played Demo for a week with a keyboard. Bought DFP 2 weeks ago and today I bought S2, I just can't stop. I'm new to the car-games (arcade and sims) and for some reason LFS hooked me completely.

I'm slow (but consistent!) and I'm having fun

Good stuff mate, welcome to S2

Oh! there is AI in this game?

Quote from thisnameistaken :

Well it frees up a space for somebody else who is more active. Plus, to be honest - and this is strictly between you and me - I think most of the other people who are going are total arseholes.

ya cheeky monkey! How come you know me so well...?

Nice one Amp and DSR,

I'm afraid I don't know the other guy, but good luck anyway.

Amp your sleeping habbits are stranger than even mine

Quote from Niels Heusinkveld :

Note the flashy haircut.. I was a true 'puller' back then ..

LOL your mother must have used the same bowl for that haircut as my dear old mother used to use

As for the car no idea, looks real with disk breaks, suspension. The mirrors would have been removed to stop bowlhead whippersnapper pulling them off

Remove the green racing line for online play I would say. For sinlgle player practise it is a great tool. For online it does nothing to help a new players racecraft learning as all he will do is try and follow the line, probably paying less attention to cars around him etc.

Just my point of view anyway

That is brilliant, I can now do more than troll the forum when I'm at work....yipee!

Quote from tristancliffe :

What is 'burf'?

Burf:
An after dinner surprise in which you expect a nice burp but end up with a little barf making its way up your esophagus thus leaving you with that horrible burning sensation. (Burp + Barf = Burf)
Mr. Teedot: Gee whiz Mrs Teedot, that was a fine souffle you made!!
Mrs Teedot: Well thank you Mr Teedot
Mr. teedot: Buuuuurppppblecccchhhh!! Oh Christ my thraot is burning....I just BURFED!!!
Mrs Teedot: Oh dear mr. teedot!!

Some extract from the Gentlefoot challenge rules, these rules seem very fair enough to me anyway. Hope you don't mind me posting this GF.

Section 2 – On Track Conduct

2.1 Always avoid contact with another driver and give him room. Never move off the racing line if it will result in contact.
2.2 If you attempt a pass on another driver, give him opportunity to see you coming and ensure you have adequate overlap.
2.3 If a driver attempts a pass on you and has sufficient overlap you must leave space for them at the apex.
2.4 When defending a pass from another driver you are only allowed to switch position across the track once. Swerving from one side of the track and back again will result in penalties.
2.5 When recovering back on track after an incident cars already on track have the right of way over you. Anyone pulling back on track into the path of another car will be penalised.
2.6 When recovering from a spin you must give way to cars already proceeding on track.
2.7 If you damage your car to the point where it is hard to control, on the way back to the pits you MUST avoid getting in other cars way or creating debris on track i.e. hitting tyre barriers that could result in compromising another drivers race. If that means crawling along the grass for the best part of a lap then that is what you must do.
2.10 When exiting your pit box you must ensure you do not make contact with any car already travelling down the pit lane.


Edit added extract from CTRA rules which I guess are more relevant:

4.0 Blocking/Defending
You may move once per track segment (between two corners) to block an overtaking manoeuvre (defend position). Additionally, you may also return to your line after that manoeuvre. You may make no futher moves to block until the next track segment. If a driver has attained a measure of overlap (eg. you did not move far enough to successfully block, were tricked by a bluff/switch-back, etc), you may consider your blocking manoeuvre to have failed and must allow room for that car on the track.

Hello folks,

It's the first time in a while i've started a thread....I'm just wondering if I'm turning into a forum troll like K.........e.......v

Anyway (sorry Kev),

How many miles haved you all done this year online? I'm thinking that I've done in excess of 40k in a year....now surely this must count me as a sales rep???, well for sure I'm gonna claim the VAT back for my time on this sim.

So how many miles have you done this year and why? and how much have yes loved it? Is it business or pleasure?

Tell me your story of why you think you shouldn't be driving a Ford Focus 1.6....ferk I can't beleive that is my destiny

No he's just crazy...you'll get used to it.

Not really he was responding to someones post in this thread which seems to have vanished
Android is one of the most knowledgeable folks in LFS

Yes welcome mate, I think you'll enjoy it here

Quote from thisnameistaken :

You have to wait until your brain has mostly dribbled out of your ears and you find other men in their underwear strangely arousing. I'm surprised Zeugnimod didn't mention these two important criteria - his team insists on both.

Oh my goodness, LMFAO, that's when I decided to join HR...how did you know?...StableX posted a picture of himself in his undies, that was it I had to apply.

You should be on telly Kev

Quote from WGooden :

Who the **** cares what people put infront of their names? If you didn't 'give a rat's ass' about it you wouldn't start a thread about the dumbest topic in the history of the LFS forums. Actually I shouldn't say that... because there are alot on this forum.

Well actually misery guts, we're having fun on this thread....well I am anyway. Cheer up mate

LOL, You might be a red neck if..
You think UK is a city in Alabama
Tony Blare works on an oil rig
...oh dear I could think of a few red neck racist jokes but do not want to offend anyone

GO Halliburton go!

Oklahoma here we come right back were we started from...

Damnit, I'm going to have to clone myself to play on all the servers I want too, looking forward to trying this out.....good job Birder and Conedodgers

Hi Bob,

Put me down for this one please. Newcastle is not too far away from me.....great place had my stag night there.....bastards stripped me naked, wrapped cling film around me and left me looking like a complete twat in the Big Market....but that's another story

I'm sure there are more but here's a few tips for starters for those for those travelling up from down south.

1. You do not need a passport to go north of Watford.
2. Amazingly we now have electricity up North so you can bring your electric shaver.
3. Better bring a translator with you.
4. Do not wear an Arsenal top
5. No need to bring a carryout...Newcy Broon is grand
6. Gordie birds are fantastic, it is law that the girls skirts cannot exceed 3" in length, even in winter!

When are you booking it?

Cheers away the lads,

Struan

Great work Bob
