Ori's skin with corrected spelling.

A translator doesn't also add attitude.

With this being my first 500 my only goal is to finish.

Good luck to all racers.

It's cleverly hidden away in an old thread

Hello LFS Community !

The New Dimension Racing Team is pleased to announce the dates for the 2010, Third Annual, Kyoto 250 and Kyoto 500.

[snipped kyoto 250 stuff]

The 2010 Kyoto 500 will take place on 26 June 2010, with the green flag to fall at 16:45 GMT. Qualifying weekend will be 19-20 June 2010. The 2009 Kyoto 500 was an awesome event with over 100 signups, about 75 people eligible to try to qualify, and about 50 drivers actually taking qualifying attempts, and the 30-car grid only separated by only four hundredths of a second, beating the record from the inagrual Kyoto 500 which was a quarter of a second gap. We hope to have the same amount of drivers try to make it into this Greatest Spectacle in Live for Speed. Signups will open on 5 April, 2010. The event will follow the same qualifcation procedures as has been since the first running, but with some minor changes.

We look forward to seeing participation in these, two events, which we regard as our two most prestigious races of the NDR history so far.

Ahh Franky, just the man

Can you change the name of this thread for me to "IHR Server Updates"? That way it becomes a catch all and then all I have to do is educate Chuck to post here and not make another new thread.

Oh bugger!

That'll be my fault.

It will be repaired this week.

Thanks for pointing it out.

After listening to many suggestions and requests, from users of this forum, for a server with less cars, Ironhorse Racing is proud to bring to you it's latest server (IHR)Random Madness. Special thanks to Kevin Myers for the name.

(IHR)Random Madness is running a combo rotation with single class racing. Each rotation will be for 8 races with a 5 minute qualifying period at each change to help racers familiarise themselves with the change of class/car.

There will be NO entry, ranking, lfsei or safety rating requirements. (something else I have seen many of you ask for).

(IHR)Random Madness uses the same Database as our (IHR)Ironhorse Racing server so any points earned in (IHR)Random Madness will count towards your ranking at (IHR)Ironhorse Racing.

Current Track and next combo can been seen by typing the usual !tr command and a list of combo's in rotation can be seen by typing !list.

Vote end is enabled and can be used if you don't like the current combo.

Finally, if you would like your favourite combo added to the rotation or if you have any other suggestions/improvements then please either post in this thread or on our forum at www.ironhorseracing.net

Happy Racing

:doh:

We haven't added more cars. Killfix forgot that he'd already mentioned it a few weeks ago.

We have reduced our minimum requirement to 100 LFSEI though.

My opinion: This was posted in the wrong place. Can a mod move it to LFS Hosts Forum ?

Ignore Ori's post, he's on drugs or something.

Here are our skins

Quote from Asphalt Scream :

...A lot of toy throwing...

Dude chill out! The answers to your questions are in this very thread. To make it easier I have quoted them for you. Obsolum didn't suggest you read the whole forum, he suggested you read this thread again as you had obviously missed what I have quoted below.

Quote from Chaos :

and I will not promote the mod, one> because the people from Skoda Auto have not yet said it could be made public, two> this is not the place for that...

no, I will not give a link, read my previous post for the reasons... The only thing I can give you are these 2 photos> http://www.facebook.com/#!/alb ... 82921&id=111081706057

Quote from obsolum :

Oh how horribly wrong and uninformed you are

Surely this is opinion anyway so, by definition, neither of you can be wrong.

Remember that we are only hearing one side of the story here. On top of that we are hearing a side of the story comming from someone who feels hard done by in the deal.

I'm willing to bet that a look at the correspondance from both sides would change the whole look of this thread.

Quote :

...and after about a year of the thing being in the status "yes, it will be" it changed to "no, sorry" ...

Without seeing the email you sent them asking for a status update this means nothing. Also based on the way you have written in this thread I can't see it being the nicest of emails. We all know that the devs have got bogged down with tyre physics etc. and an email asking for an update on something that they likely put on the back burner could have steered them towards saying "lets just not bother with that then"

Finally you are saying you didn't even bother asking them about the Skoda so this thread is really just another "whinge at the devs" thread with a "lets wind the locals up" thrown in.


Edit:

No, my point is to poke the devs a bit, to get moving a get things done...

So my last paragraph was right then? I'd put a lot of money on there being more to this truck thing than you are letting on.

Don't flame the flamer!

Baby I'm your man

The last post about the development work from scawen was in March, which was indeed just a few lines of text. The one you mention in November was FAR from just a few lines of text.

Again, lets not let facts get in the way of a good troll eh?

Quote from SmegFirk :

I see some teams have submitted a set of skins where they have more than 5 which are the same paint job.

Personally I have always liked the idea that a team has colours and it doesn't matter whether they are 10 or 2, team colours are team colours.

I don't know how I can say this without sounding like an arse, but if you are going to continue with this rule of only 5 cars allowed to look the same please can you make sure the other teams realise this. I have had to split FM in half and it would be quite frustrating if when it comes to the race other teams did not have to go through this inconvenience.

Thats assuming FM isn't the only team who manages to get more than 5 members into the race

Ahh they are also have a +1 for summer time at the moment so they are GMT + 2 right now. So that'll be 2am for qually for you ElonB13

I just see no need for the hostility all the time. If he doesn't want to help then fine but to type what he did was longer than typing UTC=GMT.

Then I'm flaming someone for flaming. Where's my ironing board?

Quote from Speed Soro :

blablabla... ...but after almost 3 years of waiting...

It's not even been 2 years yet since that last major patch but lets not let the facts get in the way of your trolling.

Quote from dadge :

sorry dude, i don't understand the point you're making. i'm not arguing. some people don't like spiders, mice and so on. i don't like elitist attitudes. even more so when the person with the attitude is nothing special to begin with in the first place. (only 50% of her races end in a podium)

The way I read rockclan's post was that he was agreeing with you and adding his part to it.

*whispers to deko*

What time?

Quote from obsolum :

My apologies to bring this back up 'cause it's off topic but I just thought I'd say I find that comment rather amusing as for the past couple of days I checked the number of players on the IHR server a few times - just out of curiosity - and it never had more than 3 or 4 players on (of which 1 or 2 are just idling there and not even racing) So yeah... obviously the racing will be fairly clean that way if you have just 1 or 2 people going round the track

No doubt you'll tell me that I checked at the wrong times and that there's always plenty of people on at the right times and whatnot, and I'm not going to argue about that as that may well be so. I'm just saying it never had any significant amount of people on at the times I checked, including right now which is generally considered to be more or less the busiest time on LFS servers.

Nope, not going to tell you that you checked at the wrong times because you are quite right, IHR is not a busy server any more. If anything it's a lot more like your favourite server these days (spends a lot of time empty and at it's busiest has 10-15 racers). Therefore it is a lot cleaner. I've seen it posted many times on here, if you want a clean server then join one with about 10 racers or less. The fact we don't even allow newbies to race helps this. How much it helps will always be open to debate.

It's actually the point that I've been trying to make for a while as loads of people still judge it on how it was a few months ago before we put the minimum standard in place. Cargame WAS growing well and when we stopped all the newbies from racing and recommended cargame to them, they went there. I'm NOT saying cargame only got busy/became the busiest because of what we did but I am saying it helped.

RenvoN, it's not dead. It may be dead TO YOU, if you call any server that hasn't got grids of 20+ cars dead. You are entitled to your opinion but your opinion is not fact.

Quote from Dmt :

tbh, then I miss old database, there was everything you needed, atm there is no place where you could make lfs designed for you. So I support Lible.

So you are moaning that there isn't enough content?

Content needs to be uploaded.

There has already been at least one comment in this thread questioning whether bose had permision to upload some of the content so he's hardly likely to spend hours finding and uploading content if he's just going to be slammed for (possibly) not having permission.

Instead of whining (ok it was more of a "I support a site that is not there yet" than a whine) about it you could help by finding the content you want, asking permission then uploading it. Then you would have a "place where you could make lfs designed for you".

Quote from SCA-F1 :

I'm in, even though I've got my hardest exam tomorrow, God, how I'll regret this...

Dude, your exam results will affect the rest of your life. This is a practice session which will affect nothing for you other than the fun of the race. Think more seriously about it. You've already said you'll regret it.

Not that it's any of my business but take it from someone who is nearly 40 and only now not struggling for money due to fart arsing around and not taking exams seriously.

Except the fact that the scirocco wasn't released because without an overhaul of the tyre physics Scawen wasn't happy with it.
