Get out of the single seaters and try:

- the LX6 round SO3R
- the FZR round AS4
- the RAC round anything
- the UF1 round AS1
- the RB4 round FE3R

Camera style varies, mostly in car as you say, but every now and then when I can't find the pace, a change to front wheel view is required .

Absolute legend, RIP.

I can't think of him without laughing at the boiled egg scene in Cool Hand Luke, thanks for the memories big man.

Quote from aoun :Does anyone here wish they kept Suzuka? or am i alone on that one?

I very much doubt you're alone on this one. Suzuka is one of my faves alongside (rather predictably..) Spa and Silverstone. Bit of an obsession with the letter 'S' here....

Its one of the best F1 tracks to drive on sims and actually has real over-taking opportunities not to mention 130R .

The F1 season is lessened by its omission imo.

Quote from Mackie The Staggie :DEAR GOD NO!!! I would rather listen to 12 cloned James Allen getting all excited about Lewis turning out of the pits correctly than listen to Sid getting all excited about nothing in particular.

For the record - Sam Torrance is better than Peter Allis by the country mile.

Fairy nuff, I loved his OTT humour and Geordie accent. Clever bloke too.

Allis was a joke, thats why winkies were invented.

No doubt you'd prefer somebody of a more explosive nature......

Aye, Rosenthal, Ryder and Allen will not be missed, (especially if it was me with the shotgun) Blundell wasn't so bad but was hardly reknowned for his deep insights and inspiring comments.

DC - brilliant, born entertainer
Brundle - I like him, doesn't take any keech and has the knowledge.

Must admit, never heard of the other lot tho

Louise will be missed, at first I thought she was just a token female chucked in to the F1 paddock, but because she wasn't a stunner she had to know her stuff. She grew on me easily over time, this new lass has hugh standards to meet.

Can't we get a petition together to introduce Syd Waddell to the line up? http://www.xlab.co.uk/extras/quotes/?source=waddell
The singularly most entertaining sports commentator of all time (closely followed by Peter Allis )

Excellent, I like a bit o' the gowf, and usually make a few quid out it too

I agree Europe has had too much of a run recently, this time it's going stateside .

Weirdly enough, turning the sound quality down to basic in audio properties made a big difference for me. Got rid of the lag. Found the hint on the RBR forum in RSC.

Quote from Takumi_lfs :Cut the crap idiots. If he did read the manual then he'd know about the limiter. So, you dont really have to post to get more attention.

Deary me.....what a crappy attitude

Quote from mrodgers :Nice attitudes folks. Really showing off the "wonderful" community here....

Good call, manners cost nowt

Welcome on board Old Timer, happy racing and don't be put off by some of the less than friendly responses here. We're quite a nice bunch, honest

Quote from Vykos69 :You are quite confident, being yourself only 2 years in

On Topic: I just dont have any time atm to play it frequently. And no real internet at home. But that changes now, as I finally get real inet in my new apartement.

Aye, I'm still a noob compared to most, Mr Old Timer

I just don't understand how you can get so bored of this sim in 12 months or so, given its massive scope and degree of difficulty to get to grips with.

Still, we don't all have the same passion for LFS either (and thats no criticism!!). I get bored with FPS within a couple of months.....

Quote from mrodgers :
I'm not bored with LFS, I'm bored with the racers who are bored with LFS. I load it up still, click multiplayer, and even CTRA has hardly anyone on that could be considered a race. When the busiest (non-demo) server only has 4 people racing, it definitely gets boring.

Totally agree with your first sentance above . WRT the CTRA servers that has to be your time zone, I can nearly always get a good race one of their servers.

Quote from floodan :I got bored drifting around in XRT so i tried FZ5 wohoo funny again!

Totally off topic, but thats one helluvan avatar dude. I'd like to explore that one

Quote from Furiously-Fast :I'm bored too... snip..

Member since October 07.....

Quote from natedog420 :ya im board with lfs atm.

Memeber since June 07

Quote from RockStarMotorSports :I agree i bought my S2 about 5 months ago and i have played it maybe twice a month since then.. as mutt said.. i been playing alot more GTA- sa-mp 0.1b lately than anything.. but with gamecam working on my new PC ill probably get more into making videos of me racing on lfs since i already have a few of me racing on sa-mp... never know..

'Nuff said

No offence meant gents, I am just genuinely baffled how someone can become so bored with this fantzmagorical product after such a short spell of time .

Hope you all find your racin' mojo again soon

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :
...a few recent ones.

-Massa gets pole position in Valencia, complains that he wanted to be on the clean side of the track, entire grid is repainted over night moving Massa to the clean side of the track.

They also moved it for the earlier GP2 race. It was just common sense really.

Lets face it, the fact McLaren are allowed anywhere near the F1 circus this year makes my stomach turn. They should have had a 1-3 yr ban in competing and personally I'd be happy if they never won a race again.

The lowest of the low, even Alonso saw thru' that

Gutted for Kimi, he didn't deserve that finish to his race.

In the words of TP's Death - "Theres no such thing as justice, just me"

Quote from samjh :I wasn't a happy camper when Kimi crashed out. Aside from throwing away his deserved win, he took a big chunk of points from my virtual F1 team.

Fortunately, my team still rose three places. Could have been another place up if Kimi had won...

Tell me about it. I had Kimi as my main driver as well as the Ferrari chassis :irked:. Cost me 200pts for that noob driving, but still ended up with 704pts.

Another case of what if...........

Mr Goody two shoes, PR friendly, dull as death Hatemelol penalised for being a tw*t again, at least there was some justice

Ever since I bought a Ferrari chassis at Silverstone they have sucked big time. Sorry for jinxing them

That was the trickiest question so far. Even although I was pretty sure of the answer, it took a while to get confirmation I was right.

Show me the ££££, as this lets me buy Kimi

I imagine Spa is one of everybodies favourite circuits on the calendar. It certainly is for me, although the changes they made to the bus stop chicane a few years ago were not to my liking (much like the tweak to Rascasse). Why make a slow but potentially tricky corner into something much more straightforward?

If anything maybe Eau Rouge should be altered so it can't quite be taken flat out and the drivers have to worry about more than just getting the line right

Yes, traditionally this is one of Ferraris strongest tracks, but I wouldn't be writing off Hatemelol for a podium finish. 1-2 for the prancing horses, Kimi first

This is definately a three horse race, but the STR's should do well again.

The big battle will be in midfield with Toyota, Williams, Renault, STR and BMW all fighting for positions 4-10.

So looking forward to this race, I'm even quite glad the forecast for my home town is $hitty for the weekend so I don't feel guilty about sitting about the house!

Thankfully not yet. But then again I've not been here long and only clocked up 32k miles.

Sure some months I play more than others, but if things do feel a little jaded I usually pick a combo I've never run before and have a blast in that

Quote from johnfromsunnymull :Perth on the 27th of September


Orite cool mate! Where you staying? You should come up for the Tour of Mull Rally!

Got a wee place in Tobermory booked up, just back from the waterfront. Really looking forward to it, never been before

I think I'm there just before the rally (20-27 Sept), b*gger
I don't think the Mrs would be too chuffed anyway!

Perth sounds good tho, I'll be there for that, cheers for the shout

Man, that is a pretty special looking line up. Would be great to see some of the old school blokes giving it some

The top current breed should be represented there, but depends on the timing, I understand

When and where John, I just might try and do it?

edit : heading up to Mull in 2.5 weeks for a wee autumn break, save me some sunshine!

Quote from BAMBO :Their is no way to settle this one, so drop it.

Or what? You'll do a massive edit on your old posts again

Anyway, back to Trukz........

Damn it's a long way to Malaga from Rivne I fancy I'll just about get there, recover and get one hot route in before it all changes again!

Shawn, how you manage to get that much in debt? Reset driver?? Thats as bad as shift-s
