Yep, minecraft worlds are many retardedly stupid small files. Take ages to copy even if they're small.

Nothing too impressive in the new update sadly.. But didn't expect that either

Quote from nisskid :

lip on MX5 looks dope, wont do shit at low speed, velocity's relationship to downforce increases exponentially by the power of 2 (L = 0.5 x rho x CL x A x V^2 -- V being velocity, L being Lift), so it's not as simple as at 50k's an hour, you will have half the downforce effect of 100k's, hence why F1's are pretty pathetic at low speeds.

but doesnt matter, it looks good, so who gives a shit?

Which was exactly what I was trying to say. It's useless on a car you're not actually going fast in, and where you don't even need the miniscule downforce it's gonna give at ANY speed. While even F1 front wings are pathetic at 100 kph, this little lip is even more so.

It doesn't matter though, as the joke just didn't seem very apparent to me.

Quote from Klutch :

I'm going to just pretend i understood that.

You need an explanation? It's not very advanced.

Thats really cool that you want to write a novel. I proofread as a summer job this year, so if you want to send me a piece when you've got around 60 or so pages just PM me.

That's pretty cool, how did you get such a job? Or is it something you've worked with for a while? I have been looking high and low for a job like that.
Sadly, I don't have a university degree in anything yet and interesting jobs are hard to find without one

Fine, it's for looks, I'm happy

I do hope you're taking quite a royal piss on me, 170 kg of downforce is over 1600 N. At 60 mph, that's more than an F1 front wing will generate at the same speed. If I were you, I'd show that design to race car engineers, I bet they will be amazed. That thing generates more drag than downforce, have fun with your slower car using more fuel.

Front downforce on your slow street car. Great. It seems the main purpose is still to remove snow.

The server just... died? :weeping:
Actually, phew, free time to do something else

Wait a minute.. What IS that thing on the front? Makes it easier to remove the snow on your local roads?

Please remove the ugly, heavy beast that is Veyron from the position of the fastest car. I hate it

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

I have a bright orange bike you can hear from a mile away, and I don't exactly hang around.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

I'd rather not draw unneccesary attention to myself.

I don't think those two go well together.. A bright bike going fast is something you easily miss

I freaking love his bike, it's the best modded busa ever (When he's on the busa).

A few rejected regulations for the 2011 season...

• Ferrari to agree in advance which rules they’re going to ignore.
  
• Michael Schumacher allowed to pretend he wasn’t in 2010 season.
  
• All teams to use 1.6-litre turbo four-cylinder engine from Fiesta RS Turbo.
  
• Ferrari allowed to ignore agreement about which rules they’re ignoring.
  
• Karun Chandhok to be re-classified as a ‘removable device’.
  
• All teams allowed to buy sixth engine from scrapyard.
  
• Stefano Domenicali limited to 50 appearances on BBC F1 coverage per season.
  
• Nankang to become second tyre supplier from 2012.
  
• All teams permitted to fit new air filter to Fiesta RS Turbo engine and then claim ‘XTRA 50BHP!!!!!!!!!’
  
• Kamui Kobayashi limited to four ambitious overtaking moves per season.
  
• Korean Grand Prix to become 35 percent less muddy by 2014.
  
• Eddie Jordan limited to 900 tons of bullshit per season.
  
• Bernd Maylander in a Mercedes SLS to be recognised as an official world championship entry.
  
• A minimum of five teams called Lotus by 2013.
  

And just to be serious, here's the real ones..

As usual, these technical regulations are insanely hard to comprehend.
Basically, banned shark fins, beam wing slots, rear wing slots, double diffusers and exhaust blown diffusers, f-duct etc. So any of the new aerodynamics..

Edit: I just noticed a retarded way to create fake overtaking opportunities. It seems that race control will be able to control the drivers rear wing angle, so when they are less than 1 second behind another car on a straight they will lower the angle to allow overtaking. Who the hell thought of this?

Edit2:

Quote :

3.15 With the exception of the parts necessary for the adjustment described in Article 3.18, any car system, device or procedure which uses, or is suspected of using, driver movement as a means of altering the aerodynamic characteristics of the car is prohibited.

Mind controlled aerodynamics here we go.

Not for me, I don't like social media networking at all

Quote from E.Reiljans :

Um, GPON has 2.5 gbit/s down / 1.3 gbit/s up limit, so that's half of what's possible :P

We are getting full 2.5 gbit/s next year, will have to save up for 4 gbit/s NIC

Usually those PON lines are shared on a big campus though, getting all the speed by yourself is awesome

Soon, Youtube will need to add UHD streaming..

Quote from troy :

fixed, you shouldn't take the german lfs forums so serious. Especially that one thread only consisting of moaning, sarcasm and bad jokes.

So.. How is that thread any different from this one?

Quote from Becky Rose :

thus making LFS a 23 year old brunette despite only being 7 years old.

I liked the first 2 F&F and TD, is it wrong of me to not be interested in this one
They're getting further and further away from the roots, which is street racing.. Now they're Bruce Willis all of a sudden? I've SEEN Die Hard already!

Well AstroBoy, we have a TS

Very tastefully modded Nathan. I like how you lowered the roof too.

Very nice cars Ian and Bridgemond
And don't listen to those saying it must go lower. Ruins the car

Quote from Luke.S :

yeah. Someone had been in and removed all the stairs lights ladders and everything. Anything of value was gone and it would have taken ages to fix the place.

But anyway I'm giving up on the LFS server now. Too much griefing.

They removed a bit of stuff.. You blew it up. I think I know who the griefer is.

Griefed to hell? You mean before you blew the ****ing thing to pieces with TNT?
