james, to be honest i stopped counting after the 5th spin out. you do not have the control over the car so far. (at least on circuit tracks). you are not slow when you get your lap done, but the speedway track showed you need much more practice on non banked tracks with this car. 
awsome stuff... after some testing i found following problems:
when a car is on the left AND on the right, the old spotter said something like: You are in the middle. this new one just ignores one of the cars or gets confused (you know what i mean)
i also did some adjustments to the cfg (as i use it mostly on ovals with gtr cars:
EnablePitSpotter = true
DxR = 25
DxL = 25
DyF = 5
DyB = 5
MinSpeed=25
MaxSpeedDiffFaster=75
MaxSpeedDiffSlower=50
MaxAngleDiff=45
stillThereInterval=1800
i will also provide another spotter-voice pack (i found it somewhere in the internet and i think it is from another game but don't come after me for the copyright as i don't really know who has it, i also did some adjustments and remixing with them so they are not 100% the original anyway) just backup the old sounds files in the sounds folder and extract the archive to the sounds folder of relax.
by the way owen, you can switch off the automessage and TSview thing in the cfg file.

Cheerio,
===================
Tomorrow, Monday 16th of july, we are racing the 4th race in the LFSCAR 360degree.tk CUP Series, the Aston 75° on Aston Club.
Start of the Qualifying as usual at 18.15 UTC/GMT on the FM 360° Event° Server.
The password is given out via the reminder mail (if you did not get the mail, come to ventrillo or write me a private message)
The Qualifying will be a 20min. open Qualifying, Race is 75 Laps.
For this race the rules are like this:
1) Flying start in single file behind the pacecar
2) Pacecar will be called out much less then on oval tracks. only when there is a big pile-up (about 4 cars) or a car is blocking the racing line for longer then 1 min. because of heavy wreckage.
3) if a Caution comes out everyone hits the pitl-imiter, until you get the close gaps command
Pacecar-Speed is 80km/h
4) A Caution will last AT LEAST 3 laps: 1 Catch-lap (Pits Closed for ALL cars), 1 Pits-Open-lap, 1 Last lap under Caution
Following Cars are suspended for this race and won't be allowed to race due to penalties from previous races: #14 (Race 3 penalties), #55 (Race 2 penalties), #999 (Race 3 penalties). these guys can watch the race of course
i will try to finish last races results and penalties of race 3 before this race, but as far as i can see at the moment these are the suspended drivers:
so i hope i see lots of you on the server for a nice and good race.
cheers

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i realy don't have a problem when someone is using my skin and is behaving nice and is a good racer. but when someone else saying something like: "OH! that TOOTHY GUY AGAIN! lets kick him" then i don't want someone else using my skin (with my name and team on it)
if he asks me, i will make him a veariation of my skin with a different color and car number for free...

these are the layouts at the moment.
i tried it out again, and i start to like the highlane one again

at the moment i have in mind:
- Higher Lane Oval layout
- SwingLow Oval, kyoto oval with a double S chicane (before and after T2, maybe reverse)
- Blackwood Carpark Trioval
- Oval Reverse (one more time)

there might be an FOX series in autumn (after lfscar season 2) organized by fm but it is in a very early stage of planing...
i have 3 other oval layouts in this size (but we run it with XRR in lfscar)
but if someone is doing an mrt oval series i will give them out for it.

i use the Headlights or the Horn to blow them away
in the old days even the formula cars had a horn, which was kind of handy...

Season 2: Lfscar Race 5: 3,6° Knockout Tournament on Monday 23rd of July, 18.15 UTC
Hey guys i just want to post the layout for the 3.6 knockout as there is only one week to practice for it.
There won't be any specific qualifying for this, as it is a tournament. to set up the heats for round 1, we will take the championship standings as a basis.
description:
you start at drag start (4 cars maximum per heat) you go around the track
until you see the finish and race result message
(3,6 times)the best drivers advance to next round with new opponents (how many is depending on how many people there are on raceday).

don'T forget about infineon, GP track in Canada and the track in Mexico. all circuit tracks...
Message when someone resets
i think it is easy to implement and can help (at least me)
when someone is reseting his car (arcade reset is allowed) there should be a message on the top left displaying something like:
DRIVER_XY did reset his car
like it is with entering and exiting pitroad.

use ventrillo (high quality, does not produce lag) or teamspeak (bad quality, crappy software, do they still have the spyware in it?)
our team is running a ventrillo server with some private channels as well. every reasonable (or not so reasonable) person is welcome to join.

as mentioned above. laguna isn't nascar. but Champcar as far as i know. correct me if i am wrong...
ia m frustrated by people who want to push the development of lfs into one single direction. Destruction derby is a kind of racing. lfs was meant to be a racing simulation offering all kinds of racing. circuit racing is a part of it. rally staging another, drifing another, banger racing another, oval racing another,....
more objects and ramps or at least all objects on all tracks (the same on all tracks) which is not the case at the moment... +1 for that
why not having the Username be part of the skin as a meta-data somehow?
true! if that is possible... then this way
one of my team members found the other day someone using my skin (which you can see in my avatar) i have that skin for several cars and it took me ages to make it. i even asked the guys who did the teeth (it is based on a RA raptor-skin) if i can use it. they said i can use the teeth if i write in the file something like: based on raptor skin by
anyway
so we found this guy. my team member tells him he should put off the skin because its mine. the guy then said, it is his skin, which isn't true. when i entered the server the guy changed the skin but said, he will use it again and i can't do anything about it. (where he had a point). the skin even contains my name on the car (Fischfix) which he was to dumb to see probably. it also had our teams website on the windshield)
so in my opinion there should be a way to tell LFS that my skins are only temporary on the machine of someone. when i or the guy who has the skin in his skins_x folder leaves the server. the skin will be deleted.
this way people who want to keep their skins private can keep them private at a certain level. ofcourse you can save it manually to an other folder but nobody will do that...
