Quote from Sobis :As this is a fully demo combo, I was wondering can demo people drive in this?

Sure if server is put to demo mode. Then can only max 12 racers be in the race instead of 32 or with extended grid 40.

Quote from Sn1p :Still, S3 license users can drive on demo servers

Sure they can, did you read the OP ?
There it is clearly stated that S3 license owner can do with the S3 license code they had won whatever they want but not to sell it.

Round: 1
Session of Incident: Race
Protestor's LFS Lap: 4
Timecode of Incident (EITHER MPR time OR Time of Day):MPR 11.00-14.00 secs (EDIT: time given is 11s into the 4th lap of the participant - 4min58s in MPR)
Your Car number: 14
Protested Car number(s): 24
Brief description of incident
Approaching to T3 which is right hand turn before entering to pit or turning to oval section of the track, car #24 decides to shortcut the turn through sand and comes back to track almost sideways in font of my car #14. I had no time to react for the move so hit car #24 on the side and we both drifted outside the track and lost many positions. I was lucky to survive from that move with minimal damage and only couple of positions but of course your driving rhythm is lost for a while. It could have ended up much worse if car #24 would have returned just little later to the track. No major things happened now but wanted to report this move so car #24 driver would know these kinds of moves are a absolute no-go.

By the rule book in the section course of events it should be blue.

"Drivers shall compete the sessions in the correct name format: Beginning with the starting number in the class colour and followed by the in-game name as given in the sign-up script."

So it at least is allowed to use blue. We all are in same class though, so I guess it's up to organizer to state do we need to follow this item in rules or not.

Thank you Rony for the announcement and accepting our sponsorship for supporting RTFR and RTFRXL series for year 2019.

We have seen during couple of past years many lfs leagues have been ramped down and vanished from leagues calender and same time many racers changing to other racing sims.

With this sponsorship action the World Class Lions team hopes to see competitive racing leagues running throughout the year to ease the waiting of next big update in lfs.

The prize money model has been build so that it gives opportunities for many individual racers to earn a few extra euros.
So be active and practise for races to gain better chances for extra earnings.
Good luck in races Smile

Hi Danny,

great to see you are back in business Smile

We have been without servers from April 2016 after MHS ceased out its operations and same time sponsorship for us. MHS provided all our servers (total 10) for several years and we are really grateful for that support.

Already before we lost our servers the online activity was decreasing and has not shown to recover even near the active times of lfs. This is pity as lfs still is the best racing simulator for online multiplayer racing (when thinking of easiness to join races and the netcode in general).
Anyway the decrease of online activity is the main reason why we have not launched new servers, there are hundreds of empty servers (demo and licensed ones) just waiting for racers.

Personally I have been quite active in lfs but not so much into casual online demo racing anymore, more like racing in couple of active licensed racing leagues which are running in regular basis.

So don't give too high hopes to get server full of enthusiastic racers, you may need to be satisfied if +5 people races will take place.
If you really want to have some good racing, it may need to be some re-planned S2 event to gain some interest.

Let's hope brighter future for LFS to gain back at least part of its old user base,

Not really, more like BF1 or FO8 @ FE6 would fulfill that definition Wink

Quote from joaopaulopt :Where can we sign up? Smile
I'm interested already!

I guess sign ups will be opened when car classes and tracks are decided.
Good to see that there is at least one racer eagerly waiting some endurance racing action Wave

I would do it as one class series as apparently the interest towards endurance racing within lfs is not too high. To have some level of attraction also to possible newcomers I would suggest to go with GT2 or GT9(GTM) class and tailor the handicaps track by track to gain best possible equalisation between cars.

Also I would prefer a bit earlier start of the race, around 15-16 CE(S)T, that would give possibility my son also to race, at least the first stint of the race. Of course that would not be in favour for people from continents of America.

Quote from seksen :In terms of the development of the game I think that a few ads that will be placed on the site will not hurt anyone.

If you are referring current ongoing graphics enhancement efforts it might actually hurt someone if advertised too eagerly. Reason is that we don't know, may be that even the devs don't know, when the update will reach needed release maturity. It can be after 6 months, after a year or even longer time. So advertising may result false expectations among users, especially among potential new users Shrug

and also nacim's comment is valid one.

Protest on RTFR 186th:
Against: -longi- (lfs account: longi)
Time stamp: 3rd lap, 47 seconds
Description of incident: Approaching and turning to last corner of the track. Was already turning half way towards the apex of the turn when longi crashes on my side with very high speed causing my car flipping and basically race over. A classical so called turn kill.

Just placing this also here, wrote this on discord:

If u want to have some more participants from European time zones, having the race event starting 2-3 hours earlier would do the trick. Now it is okeyish for UK time zone, barely okey for central european time zone and not feasible for east european time zone. Also heard in discord that for many in eastern standard time zone, current event starting time is usual dinner time. This conflict would be solved also by moving the event start time. And moving it earlier would make it possible more Europeans to join the event.

Quote from BaronX :Hey, so I bought S1 already, would it be possible to buy S3 for 24$? I'm torn, I don't want to waste the 12$ I already spent on S1 - anyone know?

In case u paid 12$ for S1 you can now enter to S3 with 24$. Anyway it is not lost of money as every license level cost same amount of money depending which country you are living. For getting only S3 content on top of S1 is not possible, and in S3 there is still only one new track environment offered. So best deal still is to go until S2 if you are not an absolute fan of Rockingham track.
