Currently an unemployed bum, but I'll be applying for an apprenticeship with BT next year to do network maintenance. If that comes off I'm away

Quote from Riders Motion : They banned me from the server.

There's a difference between kicking and banning. You got the former.

I would assume that means no?

3.1 states 2 locations only. 3.3 states that you may unlock after a format etc with the spare unlocks. Nowhere is it stated that more than 2 PCs may be unlocked. Having a quick read would be good

Quote :3.1 You may install S1 or S2 on 2 computers for your own use or to race a friend on a Local Network.

I would assume that means 2 places, not 3.

XRT, just to annoy the Demo-ers

TeamSpeak or Ventrilo?
Yet another Quad-Bike accident :(

Just found this on the BBC News website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/essex/7161165.stm

IMO 7 year olds should not be allowed to drive quad bikes at all. In fact, if I go down that line, I think they should be banned totally, various incidents have shown that they're not safe.

The 7 year old was involved in a head-on collision with a Range Rover, so what hope did she have of survival? Totally ridiculous that they're still allowed if you ask me.

He means would you rather lock yourself outside your car but be able to get in the house, or lock yourself out of your house but have access to the car.

I say Car, since I'd not cope without a house.

Controversial one here: LFS or rFactor?

I'm up for it, and a co-commentator would be amazing. We just need to learn not to speak over each other when commentating

It's clearly driver B. Him tapping driver A into the first part of the chicane caused the loss of momentum that meant he had sufficient overlap to try and make a move into the second part of the chicane. The door was shut before this, though, leaving driver B with 3 choices: Going into the tyres, hitting driver A or slowing down. He appears to have chosen the second option.

Since the Avatar I wanted is way too rectangular and the bits on it are too small, I may as well upload it. Yes it's a rubbish job and no, I won't improve it

Regarding the being taken out at T1 everyone in the grid should be aware that T1 is a lot slower than the rest of the corners, since the entire pack is trying to get round a single corner at once. Brakes should be used liberally, and by that I mean the brake pedal, not other cars. If anyone does fail to brake and it takes others out, then I would report it, especially if any positions lost aren't given back/it causes the person hit to have to retire.

Quote from Viper93 :
Just watch Viktor Szabo running the XRT against Hannu in the RB4 in the STCC, that will show you what both cars are capable of =)

And for someone with no skill in the XRT at all, watch me

That's the beauty of the Baby-R's, the racing is always extremely close, usually bumper to bumper. During the Fall-Out Cup I was often witnessing 3-5 car battles for a single position. It was awesome, and it should transfer very well to the CTRA!

Quote from seinfeld :im disapointed with the patch, all the stuff planed for this patch was put aside to make a POS open wheeler that has noplace in lfs, there already is a low powered open weeler

And clutch heat, engine stalling, realistic redlines AND a rather fun to drive new single seater which has a perfect place in LFS. Oh and then there's always the graphical updates, AI fixes etc that people seem to have *totally* forgotten about. Get a grip people, realise that this patch is more than just the FBM

Actually longer races lead to *more* points so you're not getting them any faster with the short ones

The UF-BR server counts towards your CTRA license, the same one you would work on in Race 1, 2 and 3.

The points system is weird, and us mere mortals have no clue at all how it works. Basically placing high in races and setting fast laps are a good way to get points, and yellow flags are a good way to not get them!

The community in the CTRA servers is great, but break the rules at all and they'll be down your neck about it

Quote from Hurley24 :but not every one who pays the game is a hard core racing game player, alot of people out there love drifting in this game

How very true. And others that pay for it, like me, enjoy racing, and the added realism of Patch Y
