Nice screenshots Elvis!

If like me you consider that Lorenzo, Rossi, Pedrosa and Stoner are aliens, what should we call this guy? https://www.youtube.com/watch? ... -5jQ&feature=youtu.be

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Speaking of the devil(s), Aegarter and van der Mark are both candidates for a MotoGP ride at Forward according to Speedweek.

http://www.speedweek.com/motog ... r-Mark-Domi-Aegerter.html

As usual in this period, there are a lot of speculations and rumours...I am also hearing that Honda could step in to SBK (probably with Ten Kate as background partner??)...that would include an Honda contract in SBK for Michael...I also know that a moto2 team has contacted him (can't say which one )...but like I said, many speculations and rumours, by the end of September we should know for sure!

Quote from troy :

The other young guy on the lower step of the podium beside him is Dominique Aegerter, riding quite successfully in Moto2 at the moment. He mentioned on Swiss TV that the bikes are quite different but it's not that big of a problem as long as he got one or two days in between switching from one to the other.

Good to see the young guns riding just as well as the "old"school riders in the endurance events.

Yeah Aegerter is probably another champion in the making, great fighting spirit in moto2 and a really good first showing in the 8h of Suzuka SBK.

Michael feels like 1000cc are easier to ride than the 600cc, he's also quite tall, so yeah I think he's ready for SBK...for the motogp I don't know, those bikes are very stiff so the learning curve is quite steep, maybe some moto2 could be advisable before it....that is if he decides to go there...but he's a big fan of the sbk tour, so he may stay there for another year or two (though to be ideal Honda should bring a new bike to the market, the one Ten Kate is running is a bit old tech now)...contract time is around the corner, so we'll know soon!

Guess who won the 8H of Suzuka?....for the second time in the row!

What a year for Michael, he's in the zone!

Little article: http://www.mcnews.com.au/2014-suzuka-8-hours-results-1/

Since some were interested, Michael also won Portimao last Sunday, he's now leading the champ with 53 points with 4 races to go (though one of those 4 isn't confirmed yet)....looks like we're on the way to get our first licensed lfs player who become world champion in real life racing...Lets see if he can keep his head together till the end!... They now have a long break till September, Michael was in Suzuka's first official training last Monday and Tuesday where he finished second on the board, the 8H race is on the 26th of Jully.

Quote from TexasLTU :

Absolutely right He is.

Actually I am not his manager anymore, I gave the hand to a real manager with the necessary contacts for that job... His father (le Mans winner in 1984) is one of my best friend and he asked me to give them a hand when things went wrong a couples of years ago after his motogp 125cc experience... Michael was a bit pissed at first when I forced him to go to the 600cc in the European superstock championship, which he won in his second year, it now looks like his going to do the same in the world supersport champ this year. He's a great guy, bit shy, but with a great racing mentality. Superbike will probably be an option for next year, but he also won the 8h of Suzuka for Honda on a 1000cc superbike last year and they will ask him to defend his title this year, they seems to like him a lot...So I could see Honda opening some doors to moto2 too...I am sure we'll ear a lot about him in coming years!

Here is a link to watch all the SBK and WSS races (Michael won Malesia, Donington and Assen): http://www.motolink.info/sbk2014.htm

Here is the link for the MotoGP: http://www.motolink.info/motogp2014.htm

Read what he said Chris!....check the first post of the topic.

and yes it is...

For me LFS will remain the best game of the last decennia, the first sim which gave me the illusion of driving, the first time I felt ''real life'' nervous before a sim league race and the first time in almost 20 years of online gaming that I have a very positive community experience. That's why I am forced to move on now, not because of the updates or the poor management, but because of the negativity in the community which seems to be very contagious...I mean there use to be a time when the defenders of LFS were very enthusiastic and very motivated ppls, now they are just as bitter as the ppls cursing it and that's a poor spectacle for a real LFS lover, just can't stand it...Did my first game on a computer in 1982 and LFS will remain in the top 3 of my favourite games for a very long time, probably till the end of my gaming career, which isn't too far away now!

And I am grateful those 3 guys took the time to make LFS, it has been a blast!

No you don't, it is one champ with 62 grid positions, so there is only one official podium!!

The point system is generous enough with grid two...the spot lights with stream and podium is for grid one!...want some? then get your a.. there asap!

Podium Round1:

Podium Round2!

Is the embedded youtube player already the live stream?

Check your PM!

Quote from BorislavB :

will be good to have stream and for grid 2

Where would be the fun in that, I mean the reward from the prequali is being on the first grid with stream.

If the admin crew is sufficient, yes there will be!

Actually you're right, it was too long I didn't check the law...seems to be 2 years now: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/ ... ing_goods_services_en.htm
Check also the SALE OF GOODS ACT summary here: http://europa.eu/legislation_s ... f_consumers/l32022_en.htm

But I work with pc's and once you proved that a part is defect before 3 years they do replace or repair them...in GenR we've returned wheels just before the 3 years limit and we've got new ones every times.

Check the specification bit down this page for the 3 years warranty from logitech: http://gaming.logitech.com/en-us/product/g27-racing-wheel

Quote from N I K I :

I haven't even noticed that my warranty had expired just about when I started this thread. I bought it few months old and used it for few months, bang it's a year old before you know it.

Just a little note about what you said, the Logitech warranty is 3 years!...European law says that all computer hardware have 3 years warranty, even if they say one year on the papers you get!

Sadly since you've opened it already I am too late...
