Couldn't be assed reading posts after two and a half pages, but Leprekaun, if you really think you have it.

Just pick a date and choose a combo. Then give me a date(say a month from now on?), and announce the combo a week before the date to allow me some practise. that should make make it equal experience vise.) And we´ll make a race or a some sort of hotlapping competetition.
And yea, thats a challenge.

And by no means I wanna be cocky here. I´m not even close to be the fastest drivers within lfs, just wanna make a point you obviously can't see.

Quote from Leprekaun :Well, tbh, I'm not saying "Oh look at me! look at how brilliant I am!" so to me, its no surprise that Ray is able to drive really quickly as he is the hotlap rank leader so I'd say he's driven the LX4 the fair bit .

Yes, he got lot of experince hotlapping that magnificently hard combo one needs to complete the main rank with lx4. The damn oval, so how does it tell you he has lots of experience with it?

Quote from h3adbang3r :Wait a minute there, explain why you posted an S2 screenshot as a demo racer, and have no stats in LFSW? Basically you just committed account suicide.

Hang on now, why are you so damn nosey 'bout everyones accounts?
You´re just making yourself look like a fool.
And if you really suspect someone to be hacking, this part of the forum isn't really the correct place, now is it? Just like this post, neither yours has nothing to do with the test patches.

Quote from TDRT Spøgelset : Hard to reproduce but I really believe this guy who explains me after a race that even with activated pitlimiter me got this 84km/h in the pits. See att. file.

I´ll check on the replay once more.

And whilst I´m at it, may I suggest he is using "blip at gear change down"?, since if you change up to say 6th and rapidly change down to 2nd it gives that blip on every downshift thus gives a km/h or two everytime if throttle pedal is just kept floored.

I be stealing your thread.

How much heat can chipsets usually take?
As the fan on mine stopped last night which crashed the computer.
But when booting it, in the starting screen I have option to ignore the message saying "chipset fan is not working, or it is working at too low speed".
So if I just press the key to ignore it, would I be in how much of a risk to peter my computer?

I´m going to buy a new computer at the beginning of the next month tho, but I can't live without me pc for that long ;D

The fan has done it's stopping thing odd month ago, to fix it I deattached the fan, opened it and cleaned it from dust and such and added a drop of proper "oil", worked till yesterday. Would do it again but dont have the tools myself and the place I fixed it last time can't be visited in the coming week.
Can't really put a new fan in it neither, cos it is rather small, yet it's just and just small enough to get my gfx card fitted without being in the way.

So, is it ok to make the chipset suffer a little bit?

Well, I be getting up in 9 hours, taking a bus to airport and heading to France

All started when someone on IRC told me that there is a Ford GT40 on show at some local "sparepart shop" along with Force Dynamics 301 running LFS on it.

I decided to go and see the car, was way more intrested in trying out lfs on FD tho .
So I arrived the scene and first thing I sw was the FD machine. there was one guys just getting off from it and some mildly elder man ready to take a ride,
So once I reserved my spot next in the line the guy was on his last lap (Everyone was allowed to drive 3 laps with 2 of them flying, combo was BL1 with BF1) Man gets wide in t1, rejoins barely the track, hits the barriers, takes a moonflight and I´m pretty sure crapped his pants once the FD went nuts

So, the man cripples off the machine and it gets to my turn, god damn, the thing moves was my first reactions, cant really remember the laps anymore but I got my best lap that recorded for the competition on my first flying one, cocked up the next.
The time was 1.00.1 (mind the slowness, the setup was horrible, lacked 30km/h on the back straight 0/30 df settings etc) at that point the time was about 4 full seconds faster than the 2nd fastest, but seeing that I lost 8secs to the WR didnt quite satisfie me. I got off the thing and all I saw was :bigeyes2::bigeyes2: from the employees, then they informed me that the 1st price was a trip to lemans, and then I was all O: .

They visited around 10-15 citys and towns and about a month ago I received a call and was informed that I be going to the Le Mans. inhaled my coffees then too

Sorry for the OT and the text, but I´m just like a little kid waiting when to open the Christmas presents

On South City Classic the three seems to be quite nicely balanced.
Been driving mostly the XRT, achieving lap time of 51.35 after several laps.
Did a quick try with the fxo also, only 25 laps and got 51.52.
I am not really experienced with fxo neither so in right hands I'd sugges it gets a low 51 at least.
Didn't try the rb4, but the fact it hasn't changed I can tell from the WR that it's good 51.3 to 51.6 in a quick race.

So on a track where both speed and cornering abilities matters, they seem to be quite nicely balanced for shorter races.

From my limited experience with tbo class:

It seems to me that fxo is a tad slower than the xrt or rb4 almost on every track. But the extra weight on xrt has really made it uncompetive against rb4 on tracks where rb4 already was faster.
I tought that rb4 and xrt were pretty equal, on a single lap at least, around the most tracks, other having the edge on some tracks whilst the other having the edge on some other tracks, before the extra weight.

But I´m glad this is getting into the right direction at least

Starting LFS today and encountered something strange.
At first everything ran as smooth as always, got the server list etc. but when joining a server my graphics went all crazy, gray boxes and other nonsense graphics. My FPS was really bad, around 10 when normally I´m getting smooth 80.
So I exited the server and everything seemed to be all cheesy, restarted but it didnt cure it, the screeshot is from the starting screen, havent really tried anything else just yet, tought to report this first.
And haven't installed anything since last start of lfs, haven't even rebooted my PC.

I can second having join lags and some stuttering whilst downloading skins.
The skin downloading doesn´t really bother that muhch, but to me the join lag is worse than ever that I can recall.

Quote from sinbad :Can't say I've noticed it being any worse with patch V, I've had light contact with a number of cars and survived. But then I thought that it had gotten worse in the move from S1 to S2 and has never recovered its rubbing-racing-friendly nature.

Those would be my words exactly.
