These pictures really need quotes

AFAIK, It is windy, and teams have been working with fuel strategy. So all results thus far are not representing real times I think.

So far it is looking pretty good with the overall balance of different cars/teams in the Top 10. Quite promising I think.

But I must say, Alonso must've had his lucky eyebrows plucked or something if he is that slow....

Can I have some wine with all this CHEESE!??!?

Ughhh wrestling... But funny to see Montoya letting his 'anger' out.

IMO, EVGA would be a better MB & GPU combo.

Have the same case though, you wont be disappointed.

I hope everyone is measuring the constant lateral G's when going around the skidpad. Whipping the car side to side shouldn't count.

I think some results should be rather surprising, because as far as I know, most LFS cars pull higher G's than a real life counterpart.

I'd like to be there for an event. I am usually online every now and then in rFactor, and racing could be a lot better with people that know what they are doing!

You don't.

They look like crap, so don't bother trying to make something the car is not, it just wont look right.

Quote from AndroidXP :It's quite funny how far some people are removed from reality to condemn every American (soldier) for that video. Horrible? Yes. Fake? Maybe. Representative? No.

Couldn't agree more to this.

I would write something here to reinforce all this, but all I'll get in return is a bunch of blind and indirect argumentative jibes to try and discount our country, the 'war', and how we react to these things. Better off not saying anything at all around here, and let you all speak into an endless circle I guess.

Next video/news comes along, new thread, same shit. I couldn't be more disgusted at both of those things to be honest. Keep exposing yourself, you won't get anywhere

Only a matter of time before there is a full blown 9M series set of notebook GPUs. Patience... they usually are produced last in line.

Probably my favorite design of them all so far.

Sorry if someone has mentioned it already, but have you put the Force Feedback to -100%? (errr Reverse FF) Positive 100% on all MOMO wheels will make rFactor feel really strange, and it has to be reversed to have the proper feel for some reason.

Quote from Mazz4200 :Sky news is saying epicentre was 15 miles north of Lincoln and 4.7 on the richter scale

*snap*

4.7 isn't so bad. Anything above 5 or 6 and you really feel it And things start to fall over .

Haven't had a big one here in a long while, but quakes around 4 or 5 every now and then. There are always little ones, but we never feel them. Waiting for the big one

Be creative, the tracks locations aren't really explained.

Besides, all the tracks in England don't use scenery from the real place, it's another country entirely . (Except South City)

Quote from Jakg :WTF?! Of course this is fake.

Fake is not a word we like to hear around here sir. This forum is all about realism

If you're so knowledgeable about wood, why don't you go make your own wood supercar Tristan!!!!

The car alone will cost a lot more than your average supercar I think. Probably a price equal to an all out, premium made luxury yacht.

Besides, I'd much rather have old-man-carver-joe design such a wooden supercar, rather than a 27 year-old average joe.

Green Peace will just pop it's tires anyways

Gives me new reason to watch more WTCC . If they start sucking like expected, I am not sure what to think.... continue watching? Or watch some other series?

If you flatspot a lot, two things you can do to fix it... AND conserve tire heat & wear.

1) Lower your brake power and put slightly more rear bias to the brakes.

2) Decrease your camber to something -2 or less. You may think you aren't cornering faster with lower camber, but it hardly does anything to your laptimes. As long as the outside edge of your tires aren't hotter than the middle or inside of the tires, you should be fine. The simple idea behind lowering camber is that you have more contact area on the track in order to help prevent locking up. If you have too high of camber, you have a much higher chance of locking up, especially a tire that is on the inside and unloaded under heavy braking. And even if you don't flatspot your tires, less camber will have much more even wear, and the life of the tire(s) will be much longer... so you can last much longer than normal.

Also note, most people are using R2s at the highest pressures, which also makes flatspotting easier. R2s heat up too fast now in Patch Y, so lowering the pressures of the tires really won't help for racing. But you can run lower PSI R3's easily, and your flatspotting and wear is taken care of, you'll just be about half a second slower at most.

Would be great to take that car up in the countryside to a hotel, only to wake up the next morning to the sound of woodpeckers poking holes everywhere in your car :doh:

Quote from J@tko :I know nothing about American Motor Racing, but is this correct?

Ages ago, there was a series where these two were together, racing on ovals and non-ovals.

They fell out, and now we have (or had) IRL, which races on ovals (Dario Franchitti and Dan Wheldon?) and Champ Car, which doesn't (Seb Bordais [last season], that dutch bloke who raced for Minardi and the woman driver who had a massive crash?)

And now they're getting back together again? So this season'll be on ovals and non-ovals?

Yes.

It used to be called CART... it is America's Formula 1 so to speak. I grew up with CART, and ever since the IRL & Champ Car split, I haven't been really happy ever since. CART had great moments with Zanardi, Montoya, and many other great names. Back then in CART the champ car chassis was made for both oval and road courses and only they had to make aero changes when they came to the oval (thin little wings). But now the current Champ Car chassis is more of a road course one, and I wonder what they will do to make it drive on the oval. AND, I wonder what they will do with some of the IRL drivers, because I am sure more than half of the IRL teams will be out of a chance to drive in the new merged series.

Oh well, we'll see what happens, I am glad to hear this
