Quote from zeugnimod :It happens at almost every track change to me. I almost always have to join the race twice and lose 20 points. Some clown is always on the server.

I suppose the easiest way would be not to enter the 1st race and wait for them to finish it before joining,

It would be nice if the - buttons could be disabled, leaving just your own.

Quote from Becky Rose :You get minus points in B&J when some idiot raced to hit ready too soon, basically what happens is this:

The track changes, somebody hits ready and removes everyone else from the grid, HUGELY frustrating, and because it's untraceable the *%R*(£")'s even do it to me.

Then the software detects the restart, and sees 1 or 2 cars on the grid for the race.

Then myself and others join, legitimately, on the first lap or whilst the grid is forming.

We've just bypasses the system that detected how many cars where in the race.

So we finish below the number of cars in the race: ie: 4th out of 2...

I see what is happening now thanks, ill just be more carefull next time we have a track change, but i dont seem to remember people getting taken off the starting lineup?
Ohh well it was only one race it has done it to me and its not like the points are hard to get back there

Quote from Gunn :I'm a bit dirty on Hamilton being craned out of the gravel last week though. I don't have the exact wording of the rule in question, but I believe it to be that: if you keep your motor running and are stranded in a dangerous position that you can receive assistance from the marshals who will push your car back on to the track so that you may remove the car from the dangerous position. It is the only time you are allowed to continue after receiving outside assistance AFAIK.

However, if the race was red flagged (a restart was imminent) I don't consider Hamilton to have been in a dangerous position at the time they removed his car via crane. I seem to recall many instances where a car was stranded in a risky spot but never craned out and allowed to continue. When Schumacher called for assistance once in the past he was beached on a ripple strip in a very dangerous spot under double waved yellows. The Marshals gave him a shove and away he went. I don't see much similarity to Hamilton's situation last week where he was craned out under red flag conditions.

I don't particularly like Hamilton's character, but I know an excellent driver when I see one, and he is all of that for sure.
He would be perhaps easier to like if Allen would stop ejaculating about him constantly.

J: "It's Hamilton! Hamilton is sitting in the car!"
M: Yes. Soon they will take the covers off the wheels and the formation lap will begin."
J: "Oh my God! Hamilton just put his helmet on! This is fantastic!"
M: "Indeed. The drivers rely on the helmet for head and eye protection. Helmets are mandatory in this type of sport".
J: "Hamilton's car is now moving! What a historical and emotional day for motor racing fans throughout the galaxy! Look how our Lewis shines on this, one of the toughest formation laps you'll ever see in Formula One! He's got Alonso right on his rear wing and two Ferraris right behind! What a true champion!"
M: "Hey James, n- no, put that thing away. Oh you're not! No please don't, can you at least turn away?!
J: "Lewis Hamilton, the young British driver who has stolen the hearts of every motor racing fan this side of Proxima Centauri, has just taken his spot on the grid!!!! Oh....oh this is fantastic!"
M: "Eeeeew" did you have to do that? Look what you've done to your Lewis Hamilton T-shirt"
J: "That's ok, I have six more just like it in my locker".

Quality, That gave me a smile on a monday morning!:headbang:

Its when u get minus points in small races thats shame, a 3 car race in B&J yesterday and i came last and got -10pts plus the -5 entrance fee,

That will teach me never to hit the ready button with only 3-4 drivers on the list after a track change.

Right now ive seen the new one ,
personally i say driver B, driver A&B were side by side going into the corner, driver A was holding a nice tight line to run 2 wheels over the curbing when driver B turned into him, Once driver A took the hit he was sent into the barrier causing the accident,

I would say driver B was at fault, The said driver was way offline to take the corner at that speed, thus ending in a domino effect after tagging the rear end causing the final flip,

This is the first time ive watched the blame game and i must say its very interesting, great work on the movie

I would rather have DC back in a maclaren over JB, He does wonders in the red bull. even DC in a BMW or toyota would be great.

I think some people expect to have a new patch every month, possibly due the huge amount of test patches we have seen over the last few months, maybe he worked his but off so he could have a half decent summer with his friends and family? anyhow i find LFS progresses at just about the right speed, be patient Y will come!


p.s does that mean the ctra-x system will become ctra-y when we get a it?
