Quote from Tezuka :

Real cars? I'm much more concerned about real tracks made by the community or dev's.

I'm not saying that the LFS tracks are bad but it would make the sim that much better.

You have only seen Blackwood yes?

Were probably the only nation that either culls or eats its Coat of Arms , theres something in that for everyone..

Come to http://arseforums.com/phpBB/index.php for more aussieness than Paul Hogan eating a wombat while fornicating with a koala!

I hope our new PM is an Obama man,the old Pm used to rim George Bush on a regular basis. Dont know a whole lot about American politics but surely Mcain and Palin are comedy relief?

Flamin mongrels a wallaby stole my dingo!

true bro, i,m off to the wholesalers in my jandals to full up ma chilly bun with some Lion Reds hey cuz.

Sweet choice

I dont think till any of us know LH personally there's no way to judge what sort of person he is . He does appear arrogant but maybe thats just his "race face".James Allen and other media types do not help his cause at all.

Fatality , Ambassador of how to be a cock.

And please bring back the guys to do the talking, no offense ..

Small rain storm, Massa spins 17 times in 3 laps . Michael Schumacher roundhouse kicks Massa as he steps out of the car and promptly wins the remaining race and WDC in a freak computer/points accident...

James Allen vents his manlust on Loois immediatley in parc ferme , while Max Mosley snorts cocain of a hookers arse at the same time as he adjusts his swaztika...

The amount of waste from every team developing the same systems is retarded, there should be more common parts and electronics shared even if its at pit lane level .

I love the diversity of F1 , it makes F1 what it is but surely the sub systems the public eye dont see can be shared .

AHHHHH!!! WALLS OF TEXT!!!!

The whole deal is stinks , to quote Monty Python "Your making up the rules as you go along"

Imho it appears the penalty was to make the championship artificially close and probably would have happened to any of the drivers in contention at some stage if there were a noticeable points difference.

Conspiracy theory ? maybe so but it seems these things happen all to often.


Btw Webber fanboi here , grrrr at Loois for punting my man :chairs:

Quote from farcar :

Maybe, but they both compete for the attention of the same group of people. That's the problem that Scavier face.

I like apples and oranges,maybe if there was a sweeter more full featured apple i wouldn't eat that overpriced orange..

Better put a leash on those puppies....

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

The main reason that cruisers and drifters (cruisers in particular) get so much flak is that they continue to request that their concerns be put ahead of those of the racers in the community. This is a racing sim, has been from the start, and the devs have made it very clear that it will continue to be. The devs are not interested in making this a cruising sim (contradiction in terms) or a drifting sim--but if those things come as a byproduct, so be it.

Scawen & Co. have been very insistent on developing their own vision of LFS, and the racers who have been with LFS for the long haul get understandably fed up with the new waves of non-racers who show up and think that they have the right to demand equal consideration (or any consideration, period) for their preferred activities.

I dont cruise myself but i can see were the OP is coming from even if he has done it the wrong way. Cruisers seem to be the new Drifters who were the New Oval Guys , if you get my drift (no pun intended) .

I just cant see the point of bagging out the whole genre of crusing/drifting/dragging (nearly forgot those bastards) for want of a better word , your just tarring everyone with the same brush.

I can hear the tyres screaming from undesteer now...


Good on you Devs !!!! good work for scoring a real world(mass produced) car.

Well Done!



Btw the Devs should thanked , no matter what you think of the car. I wonder why more car makers dont this after reading some of the comments....

This may have started as a racing sim but now it appears to be all things to all men/woman...

The cruisers dont disturb the racers or the drifters or the rally crossers for that matter, if crusing floats your boat then more power to you.

I think the only reason cruisers/drifters get a hard time as there seen to be lowering the credibility of the sim? Personally i think its a huge feather in LFS's virtual cap that it makes so may different types of simmers/gamers happy.

We should be happy LFS isnt as anal as other sims

7.6m for year isnt a bad deal, considering the footballers etc etc are for multi year contracts..

Its a shit load of cash to tour the back of the grid .

Quote from Breizh :

Alonso's vain and pompous, Stoner's just immature.

He is 23 , i think he handles himself pretty well for being so young.Like alot of these guys they have done nothing but race since age 14 , being in that bubble and having your ego boosted continually its probably very hard to gracious when you beleive you have been wronged.



I see people make a bigger deal about being punted off at Blackwood T1, its just Rossi and Stoner etc etc have a bigger audience...

Its a joke joyce...

The boffins will have it ready come race day.

Quote from Mustafur :

Stoner seems to be the equlivent of Alonso in motoGP, but he does have skill, hes riding style suits perfectly to the Ducati.

Press 1: Eject Mustafur to New Zealand
Press 2: Eject Mustafur to Great Britain
Press 3: Eject Mustafur anywhere but Australia for being
Un-Australian

With out getting too far into it, the Duke was a pig for along time and nobody could ride the thing, yes fast as all buggery in a straight line but it went round corners like the QE2 . And its pretty much the same thing now nobody apart from Casey can ride the thing.

I will be very interested to see how Sete goes on it, I hope he does well but there have been some good riders on it and go nowhere. Troy Bayliss comes to mind as of course Melandri who is a bloody good peddler. Is my memory fading or didnt max Biaggi have a ride too?

I would be pissed being told it was the bike that did all the business when clearly its the match of man and machine that won the title.

I think now Yamaha have the pnuemo valve motors the difference isnt as great as it was in 07,hate to sound like a fanboi ( i am a fan but Rossi is my fave) he rode some pretty ordinary bikes in 125/250 and punched well above his weight .

He is not the uber naturally gifted rider that Rossi is for sure but he can point a bike through the twisty bits as good as any body out there today.

Quote from andybarsblade :

Great race just a shame stoner had to spit his dummy out, He's a good rider but needs to understand that Rossi does'nt have the luxury of being able to wait till the start finish straight and blast past him like he's riding a 250. Lets see stoner pass in the turns then maybe he will earn some respect.

Theres other guys punting Dukes around and going nowhere, i think the guy deserves a little credit for steering the thing. If the circuits were ovals then yes i would agree its purely a power thing but its bullshit to believe that especially on circuits like Leguna Seca.

He was battling the (i beleive ) best GP bike rider on the planet lap after lap, that does not happen by straight line speed alone.

He does need to learn how to loose graciously as it happens to the best,but maybe that only comes with age.

Cheat may not be the right word, exploit is probably more accurate.

What ever you call it and no matter how minute amount of time it may save its imho its pretty unsporting. One of the definitions for the word cheat is "defeat someone through trickery or deceit".

Its not cool and people will always think less of the guys that use it..

How does adjusting pedals/wheels/joystick's axis mean the same as advantage?

Adjusting the range or travel of anything does not automate a process?


FFS that just silly, one program allows you to fix axis's the other automates a procedure.

Pushing button A should =Button A, not Button A= Button A+invert+reinvert+milk the cows+polish my shoes+release clutch


Chalk and Cheese (which is produced by pressing Button A)
