For me monday would fit best. But on mondays is also cesva that I wanted to race but often could not make it in time.

If sunday is most popular, currently the AB-calender has some free days that were meant for special races/cup. Maybe it is possible to coordinate the dates? See pm @ rony.

To make a setup easier to drive it is sometimes just small changes. Bit more camber or brake-bias more forward generally makes the car more stable. But that is a matter of compromises and taste too.

In slick cars a bit factor is tire heat and wear. Sometimes slower driver find quick setups difficult to drive because they never go fast enough to get the tires on temperature. Or other way around, they slide so much that it ruins and overheats the tires.

Quote from Mate2169 :Not cars in general but suspension of it (and some interior)
for example the xfg and xrr share same suspension (in f10 mode atleast)

Not sure what you mean, but those cars have very different suspensions.
xrr has 2x double-wishbones and xfg has mc-peterson-something, or how it is spelled.
In garage-screen click "Susp" to see the geometry. Or shift+L while driving.

There seems to be a problem that new accounts on www. absolute-beginners.nl are not automatically activated or not recieving activation-emails.
If that happens to you please post here on lfs.net so that an admin can manually activate your account.
Else you will not be able to post or see servers and passwords.
Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

I think in LFS these rules are somewhat widely accepted: https://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/Rules_of_Clean_Racing

Quote from nacim :I stopped playing this server because I can't play with my G25's H-shifter anymore. I don't know why you disabled it, but it seems stupid to kick player with more realism. Bring it back please!

I just tried and it did not kick me Thumbs up

truckloader: there will be an announcement when new saison begins.
(in some weeks or so)

This sunday we have one more special race:
http://absolute-beginners.nl/e107_plugins/calendar_menu/event.php?1502652600.event.562

Car: XFG
Track: Aston Cadet
Laps: 4 x 15

With the special rule that two drivers share one car and have to do a mandatory driver-swap.
(good idea to be bit earlier on server to find teammate and practice driver swap)

multiple devices work for me:
I use G27 wheel and an usb-buttons-thing, both can be used together in LFS.

If you go to options->controls and hold down buttons on wheel/shifter, do the pressed controls get displayed?

Here is how to adjust what messages show:
https://www.howtogeek.com/80122/how-to-manage-action-center-in-windows-7-2/

Depending on what the alerts try to tell you, it might also be good to fix the reasons that triggers them. (full disk, updates etc)

At 11s you rolled a bit forward. There are few centimeters tolerance for rolling before green light, so nothing happend. But then maybe later the car moved another 1mm (possible by steering?) that is invisible on video and that put you over the limit.

Or the penality for the initial movement was somehow delayed/lag. Shrug

1) yes, those are the worldrecord laps.
Also see https://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/Hotlap_Analyser

4) to connect three screens you need a graphic card with at least one displayport output.
(eg a card with 2x DVI and 1x HDMI can not run 3 screens)

Since you mention analyzing so much, maybe this tool is interessting: http://vhpa.co.uk/
It works with the LFS cars and there are MX-5 files for download.

in the XRT picture the flat look of 'simple wheels' reminds me of streamlined rims from some sportcars:

Quote :I can do that myself more then perfectly when needed

but it was never 'needed', that is the problem. since years your whining has always been the same.
you often act as if you are the only one enlightend to 'see reality' or so but in reality nothing what you constantly repost is really new to anyone, it is simply not constructive and annoying to always read the same mimimimi.
