I have a few comments about the league, mostly for next season, only because this ROC type of racing can really be enjoyable, good to watch and also professional.
First of all, you want go give more people points in the qualifying rounds, to make sure you will have the amount qualified by points you want to have in the main event.
Even in the qualifying rounds, you have to make it look professional. No need for childish chatting, and behaviour, neither with friends or anyone else. When you do a league, you are the boss, the participants are only equal racers, nothing else. They HAVE TO DO whatever you say. And you have to tell them what to do, or it will end up like it ended up in both qual and main event, a mad house tbh.
Few small things, like sticking to the timetable, and PW the server an hour before the event.
The qual rounds could have been good, but with a much more strict admin job.
The system of the main event was messed up. You don't give others time to practice, at least not in that format. Asking for set during the event? Sry whoever it was, but how noobish is that? We also had fixed setups given by the admin. After each race the drivers had to send the setup back to the admin, so he could recheck them to avoid cheating.
The layout.. when I saw it I was a bit disappointed.
As for an example, this is what our ROC event layout looked like: (last years lfs.hu ROC)
Inside line made of tyres or cones. You hit em, you get a penalty. Simple as 1*1.
Also, we rolled to the star line, then admin counted down, we started. These are small things that makes the event look more organized, and professional.
Then the brackets. After each round we had a bracket updated by the admin, with the times and stuff, and posted on forums. Looked like this:
Also, each matchup had a random car of 3, decided by a random generator and the finals was a best of 3. Basically, this is kinda like the real ROC, but man it was fun as hell.
I have future ideas about ROC type racing, cause as I said before, This can be really enjoyable and while being fun, also can be professional. But everything have to start somewhere, and this thing has the potential in it and has lots of room to improve.

Go get a life Andy 
Me being uncautious? Yea, whatever. So if someone gets surprised by an overtake, and makes a mistake (literally not seeing me), it's my fault? ...
Anyway, I'll miss the next round, cause my wheel is broken, so thats it for me I guess.
Nah, taking it apart was the final dig. Those plastic sockets are completely broken, so it wobbles even more than before, its unusable now for road racing
Well if you tell me to do 3 stins, I do 3 and we win
Bah, no we don't, fakin 45% rule It has nothing to do with luck, and also every corner has overtaking possibilities. It really goes down to the drivers involved in the overtaking, and in this case, I feel I did everything I could, and what I did was fair.
Anyway, éet the judges decide :P
If you check it from your camera view, you can see you could have gone wider. I was already next to you (might have surprised you I think), but you didn't really choose a wider line. I know I was aggressive, but that wasn't clearly my fault. I had overtaken some other drivers as well, and everything worked fine.
PS: at 0:36 you can clearly see you are on the ideal line, although I was next to you, even a bit ahead

Well this thing fails in so many aspects you can't call it FAIL, neither a win, cause it simply isn't a win. Only WOEFUL left as a proper definiton of the above written
This thread totally made my day, I'm so happy I found it

There is a reason why don't real racers share their telemetry data with others. Making good setups requires some knowledge, logic, time and hard work too. It doesn't fair, when someone makes a set, drives a WR (even if set has little to do with it), and than X just watches the telemetry data, and gets most of the info in 10 secs, which sometimes took hours for the owner.
It's basically like cheating. You don't know the answer/solution, so you copy.
I don't upload hotlaps any more, and the reason is I don't really want to share some setups and ideas with the competition (mostly hungarian scene). Theres public level racing, and theres serious league racing, where you really want to keep all advantage you have. Thats what makes you faster than others.

Nice stuff coming there. Seems like another long delay of the Scirocco and company.
Naice, good luck to you both. There was a time I wanted to join spdo as well, but I didn't
You can also install Everest, it tells you everthing about your pc, so you can figure it out what vga you have.
Also you can't tell a CPU's performance from its clock speed. Usually newer generation CPUs are much faster at the same clock speed than older ones.
For example, my C2D E8200 at 2,66ghz pumps out 2,5x more FPS in LFS than my friend's Pentium D945 at 3.4ghz (with same spec PC). Even at 1,5ghz the C2D owns the Pentium D...

They look even funnier when they actually do it. Nice lag they have sometimes

Well, thats the difference in WR pace, and 1-2 secs from WR pace. It also depends on the setup, but you really gotta know what to do when you are at a corner. Lets say you are at a left-right combination. If you brake just a tad late, or miss the weight transfer just a little bit, you find yourself in a huge understeering situation.
So it's avoidable, you just gotta know what to do and why, otherwise it's the car driving you around which is not that good imo
Well that's not what we were expecting from a mod But yeah, Bob has the point
But yeah, Bob has the point It's doesn't make any dofference in physics. More fps just makes the game smoother, so you can be more precise. It really means a lot if you want to drive it on the edge, but even if you are a couple of tenths off the pace.
I'd say you need at least 60 fps to be able to drive comfortable, but you can even notice difference between 60 and 100.

OMG I almost replied to duck. Never ever let me do that

Here's the flip? from SR. Or at least what lag made it look like.
