This has become a favourite of mine overnight, what a blast to drift this big boat, engine sounds nice too! Maybe at some stage you can make a drag car version of it, not a pro mod but with some 10.5 inch slicks on the back and skinnies up front with some more power!

Keep up the good work

well done man, what a car to try master! If you get it right it goes like the clappers, if you get too generous with the throttle on corner exit it spits out sideways aiming at the wall XD

Keep up the good work!

Love this thing, it's so ANGRY! Had a lot of fun playing around with setups and have managed a 7.5 on the 1/4 mile!

Would love some more drag cars, keep up the good work

What a blast to drive! Love this monster, good job!

One thing that does bug me with a number of mods, the way the turbo spools just seems too fast, there is no lag or spool up time, its almost linear to throttle input. Is there a way of making this more "realistic"?

Still a great weapon!

What a car, I just did a few laps with it as well as messing around doing gymkhana type stuff and all I can say is WOW!

This needs to be an approved mod, its awesome! The sound is great and your race setup is pretty spot on. It give one a nice starting point to tweak here and there for each circuit.

Well done man!

yeah, it turns out windows 7 saves it in another folder which I eventually found, thanks anyway
Hot lapping replays not found

Hi all

I have been doing some hot lapping and broke by lap record and want to update my hot lapping stats. The problem is, I can view the replay under replays in the game but when I go into the .spr replays folder the replay I am looking for doesn't exist!!!!!!

Your help would be greatly appreciated

thanx guys for the replies, I think it would be nice, I mean yes there is no "real" steering skill in drag racing but dont for 1 second, think that doing well is easy, because on LFS u can't mod ur cars so it is all down to how well you can set the car up and the speed at which u can change gears. If you do have 8 or so guys sharing the record, then so be it, it means u 8 guys are the best!!!

It would be nice to kno whether the devs have had a look at this post, I am pretty sure it can be too much of a hassle to make these minor add-ons
LFS World

Hey guys and hopefull developers. I wanted to know if it would be possible to include the drag strip under the "S2 Hotlaps" section on LFS World.
If this is done then LFS racers can also get a ranking with their drag times and I am sure the change won't be too difficult to make

LFS causes my PC to suddenly restart without warning

Noticed the problem about 2 weeks ago, I think, and automatically linked it to a dips in the power supply, but when it started happening 2-3 times in a day then I realised it had to be an issue with the game, if you have any ideas as to what is causing it, PLEASE do tell.
It seems like it mainly happens when I am in singly player mode and using the track editor, e.g. today I put a couple of ramps on the blackwood rallycross course and then raced against A.I. on the course with the ramps placed. I then went back and viewed the replay and slowing the replay rate to 0.250x while the A.I. was going over the ramps, all of a sudden the computer momentarily(split seconds) goes off and then switches back on/restarts.

Hope this helps

Well thanx devs for letting us know a bit about the progress of the scirocco and nowthe new tire model. It is GREATLY appreciated.

Well I wonder what this involves, I wonder whether we will get a drag slick , that would be cool, hehehe, but at least we know that the update should make the tires more realistic

I dont want to come across as a moaner, it is just that when u have a game as good as LFS, u need to try and keep up to date with the discussions, or at least give a genral statement letting all the racers know about the progress of an up date or patch, I mean come on, its been 7 months since there was any formal statement given with regards to the Scirocco

I fully agree, but I want to know if the devs even take the time to look at this, it would be nice to get some form of recognition from them, indicating that they have taken note of the suggest and why or why not they will improve on it.

If anyone has a more personal knowledge basis of the devs might want to send this suggestion to one of them specifically becuz at the moment it seem as if they are no where to be found, seeing that we have not heard ANYTHING of the Scirocco and why it has taken so blinking long.

COME ON DEVS, PLEASE TELL US SOMETHING!!!!!!!

I am sure that this question is on many racers minds, as to when we will be recieving the scirroco. It has been about 6 months since they notified about it being postponed and it would be nice to know a bit about the cars progress, surely it shouldnt be to long now?

My problem with smoke is that it means that the engine has been damaged (blue smoke, oil being burnt). But a nice backfire would be very nice on the GTR's, FOX, FO8, Turbo cars, UFR nd XFR

WHOA, dude, sorry for making a suggestion and throwing the world off balance and sending it into the sun . I can understand if LFS still needs to perfect the normal 4 stroke cycle but you have to admit that a rotary turbo powered car would be nice, good power to weight, GREAT sound, and its different

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

I was chilled, I answered his question by linking him to a forum post by a Dev that DIRECTLY answered his question.

Why do I frigging bother?

Buddy if you had just answered it with a simple "Sorry man, I dont have a clue" that would have been plenty good enough, the thing that ticked me off was the manner in which u said it
