Well, the climate change exists, but even if the average F1 driver emits 10 times more co2 than the average brit, it's a fact that there are 20 F1 drivers and a couple of millions of brits...

Quote from Davo :Had some very weird stutering going on that I can't reproduce. It occurred when the race restarting count down was on screen. Only happend twice though and hasn't repeated since. Otherwise all is good.

Now that you mention it, it also occured to me, but the stuttering was barely noticeable, only half a second or so.

Just had a couple good races on test servers! No stability issues so far...

It's just an insane amount of load for the poor server

Not a bad idea...even if i have only 10 wins, 15 seconds and 25 thirds of 250 races joined^^
EDIT: it's time to increase that number, *gone racing*

Well, in my opinion:
-oversized wheels
-the rear lamps are, well, "interesting"
-please put an exhaust pipe that's smaller than 84365012 Inches...it's hideous..:yikes: .

Quote from Scawen :Though having said that, I just want to say thanks to you all for testing the test patches and giving feedback. Although it sometimes gets a bit annoying seeing one small point dragged over several pages, LFS clearly wouldn't be so stable or usable without your help and the Test Patch forum is basically a good place.

So... thanks for that!

You're welcome!

I think it's a brilliant Idea, +1

Yeah, the old days with rear engined fiats...anyway, fiat is bringing the new Fiat 500, but it is FWD.
I think that something like that would be a good UF1000 opponent, partly because it's coming with a 900cc 2 cylinder turbo engine...

That is exactly what i meant...

Quote from detail :make an InSim application to record if someone has exceeded like 100g acceleration in 0.01s or 15g in 1 second on average, ...and to ban those racers for a day or two, since they are considered dead.

LOL...

Maybe a modern "Fiat 500" like thing with rear engine and rear wheel drive.

+1 for a "thing that you link to the PC and that punches you in the face when you crash"...

No really, seatbelts and HANS would be nice on racecars.

Quote from Vain :I checked your LFSWorld stats and it reports 121 Miles for you. You propably practiced more offline, but I'd suggest enriching your experience mostly with driving other cars and tracks.
What I'm aiming at is that you should try to learn more about how momentum and tyres work in LFS. Once you can imagin what the virtual car is doing in your head you'll find it a lot easier to drive good laptimes quickly. That alone should get you within 3 seconds of the WR easily. After that you may need more practice and some setup-knowledge.
I learned that after I wasted about 500 laps at FZ5/Aston Nat and never got closer to the WR than 2.5-3 seconds. After a small route through LFS for 2 months I narrowed that gap down to .5 within 15 laps. So practice isn't everything in LFS. Additionally you need to be able to imagin how the virtual car behaves. That either means you try everything out or you read up a bit on vehicle dynamics.
I study engineering, so approaching driving from the viewpoint of vehicle dynamics comes natural to me. I don't know how much it'll help you.
(By the way this is a nice strategy to keep concentrated. In endurance runs I keep thinking about differentials, ARBs, spring rates and dampers and before I know it I drove an hour at pb pace. )

LOL, that also happenst to me, even if i'm not studying engineering, but i think i have some base knowledges, so i can barely figure out what the car is doing...

Yesterday i tried the FZR on Westhill for the first time with RACE_S setup and 100kg ballast, and got 1:38, 1:39, even if i never drove this combo...

He couldn't have put it better...
But i'm afraid that even here in Italy some people are a bit bigot...

I thought: maybe making the FXR a RWD isn't a bad idea, something like the Opel Astra from DTM, a couple years ago, when coupes were used...

I can already handle much much better graphics, so i wouldn't mind to have a "cutting edge graphics" LFS, but imho the settings should allow the game to be playable on low end systems.

Wow, that was very generous of you, man!

I'll do something like that on my 18th birthday...7th October 2009, be prepared!

If i'm not wrong, that happened to another player, search a couple of pages back in this thread.
