...which you get more from warm hyrbids than cold road tyres.
Miss the XRT? 
Just skip drinking for a month and you got the money.

Ok, I'm starting to believe I have a problem
Like I wrote before, I tend to sweat a lot while concentrating and racing hard. It's really irrititating to have to have a shower everytime after playing a god damn computer game.
Today I went online wearing my heart rate monitor, and after an hour of racing it had recorded a maximum of 172 beats per minute! That's equilevant to quite fast running. Average bpm wasn't that bad, only 120 which I get by walking the stairs down to the street.
Obviously the problem isn't physical, as I can't believe that spinning the wheel and pushing pedals would compare to fast jog. But when concentrating hard and driving on the limit I tend to strech all unnecessary muscles ridiculous amounts.
Are there others fighting with this phreak problem? Do you have any tips how could I start to train myself out of this habit?

Of course I want billion cars and classes, but there's more interesting classes I'd like to see before this one, so voted no.
indeed.In my opinion improper controllers should be allowed, but without any aids. At least I felt really betrayed few days ago, when I realized that back in my momo days I wasn't fast because of my car control skillz but more likely because flatshifting, paddle shifting, button clutch, auto-blipping, turning only 240 degrees etc. Now I feel really bad for those who may have lost a race to me because of using more realistic controls. I would have been much happier if the aids didn't exist in the first place.
And now that I had a chance to get the proper gear, I either don't want a wing commander outbrake me by just pulling back, not to speak of a teenager pressing 'z'.

I'd choose wide over 4:3 anytime, there's no reason for me to use 4:3 (except that I happen to have one that works, and new ones would cost money)
I understand debates about forced camera positions, driver positions or turbo lag, but how on earth can somebody speak for driver aids? The sooner they're gone the better.
And what comes to thread title, haven't tortured anyones clutch like that in real life, but in LFS you can flatshift and kick the clutch quite a lot without any extra heat

I can't believe how different this is now than year ago with Momo wheel. Several hours of practising, yet I'm 5 seconds off the pace, unable to brake properly, unable to recover spins, and miss-shifting every lap, but I'M LOVING IT!
Keep up the good work, Scawen!
EDIT: Afterall it wasn't that different, but helluva lot better!

Such a nice read, Kamkor, thanks!
You are very right about LFS being close to reality! I had never oversteered in a rear wheel drive car before, but only because of being used to do it in LFS, it only took about 5 minutes to drift a real car in the same exact way. I'm still very very impressed when I think about it!

I also believe that you should never ever use either of those effects with LFS.
Tyre heating may feel a bit too fast in LFS, but I doubt that nobody drifts 30 minutes with any kind of tires in real life...
Warranty starts the day it's bought. If you buy it from a retailer (dunno if those sell by ebay, at least here they do via local web auction) it will, but if you buy it from a consumer, the warranty is stated on the warranty recipe.
OT: I finally ordered my G25 today, and got a 2-year warranty with it!
But what I've heard, theres a good chance for the shifter to break...
Seems like the profiler is crashing for some reason. Try to reboot your pc and see if it helps.
If it doesn't, uninstall and reinstall the profiler.

A drift car differs from current cars when it comes to looks, power, tires and steering lock. Ability of who can drift what has nothing to do with this, and you should know it with that post count.
Admitting that you haven't read the thread in a stupid and useless post is even more stupid.

A Finnish man usually seems more or less emotion-dead on the outside. At least my Russian girlfriend and her mum are often amused by their boyfriends' 'typical Finnish sullen behaviour' I feel generally very happy at most times, but instead of smiling and jumping home from a shop like a Little Red RidingHood in the woods, by default my face is like I'd be in a funeral and I rarely start a conversation unless I really have something to say.

Sorry if that question offended your hidden origin. I promise not to ask any questions related to foreign countries anymore!
1) We have the improvement suggestions board for improvement suggestions and bug board for bug reports.
2) You should always first decide what you are trying to say when opening a thread. If you don't have anything to say, it may be best not to just do it.
He wasn't insulting the people, he was just pointing out that most of this negative feedback without proper arguments seems to come from (inexperienced-ish) drifters. And feels natural it doesn't make drifting or drifters seem any better in his eyes.
Exclude drifting servers from the server list?
Hate to be a racist, but why are most of these rants without decent arguments coming from across the pond, where the user base is small even?
Because creating non-racing related content delays creating racing related content.
Who drifts and who doesn't isn't related to this thread in any way. If you ignore Tristan (that I think you should do), nobody is bashing drifting in this thread. <-- That's right, kamkor.
24 hour pickup races sound quite rare to me, and one shouldn't type when racing anyway.
When they start to improve the damage modelling, I certainly hope and believe that they don't just make some invisible boxes that determine deformation and engine damage, but instead like they have done before on several other aspects of the game - be the first that take it to the next level, modelling the structure of the bodies and parts so that the cars break somewhat realistically, affecting the looks and fuctionality as it should.
Even though it could be fast to implement, doing something "small" like you suggested is completely just waste of time and resources if they are going to redo it later anyway. When the devs do something, they do it properly and work on it as long as it takes, and that's about the best thing in LFS after the driving itself.
