I used to have minor issues when it was F1GP running at something like 4fps but these days I don't have any issues at all with eye strain. Arms, legs & back side, yes - but eyes, no.

In every game/sim that includes wet weather I've turned it off/to sunny wherever possible.

I'm slow enough as it is

Absolutely chucked it down at Toddington at 4:00 today... expect it hit Pershore soon after...

I had a good day, because I didn't go to work

I hope it stays mod free - that way you know you've got the 'right kit' to join any server...

Veering slightly off topic (sorry) but I've just been to look for blue flag rules for Nascar - as an example of oval racing. Concrete information is difficult to get because unlike F1, they don't (openly) publish the rules. Anyway - from what I can see there's not a blue flag in Nascar - just a blue flag with orange diagonal stripe with a similar (but subtly different) meaning as follows (apparently):

Quote :
The Blue Flag with an Orange Diagonal Stripe

This is the "courtesy" flag or the "move over" flag. It is the only flag that is optional. A driver may, at his discretion, ignore this flag.
It is displayed to a car (or group of cars) to let them know that the leaders are coming up behind them and that should be courteous and move over to let the leaders race.
Again, this flag is optional... However, NASCAR takes a dim view of anyone who repeatedly and without a darn good reason ignores it.

I always knew I didn't understand Nascar racing. Now I'm even less sure.

I usually start with a setup from the Inferno site, then adapt it to suit myself - quite often ending up with something completely different. I've even got the the point that I have a good idea of what changes I'd like to make even before trying a setup out.

On the very rare occasion I've been asked, I've never hesitated to share a set up.

I've never asked for a set up on line - but a number of times I've been offered one unsolicited (yes, I'm that slow... )

He's 4 & I think he's cute (but then might be ever so slightly biased)

we normally do the car park - he steers & I do pedals though sometimes he likes to do doughnuts in the FOX

whenever im playing lfs, and my sons in, i can never play properly, the reasons being:
  • my son always gives a running commentry which is offputting
  • my son always makes me put BLCP with the UF1 on for him
  • my son will then sit for 2 minutes and do around 0.100 laps
  • my son will then say that he is best in the world
these are just a few of the annoying things that happen to me.

Actually I agree with him on point 4

Not suprisingly the vertical fins have now been declared illegal...

Isn't this somewhat like being the registered keeper (named on V5) of a car that is caught speeding by a Gatso (ie no pic of driver) - you get mailed the fine & the 3 points & unless you can get somebody else to take the penalty (ie admit to driving the car at that time) you're stuck with it (even if you weren't driving at that time)?

Personally I hate them because I'm such a slow starter. If there was an option to 'start at back' on request then I'd be going for that.

There some nascar style skins for the UF1 around somewhere too (sorry, can't give a link as I don't remember where I saw them)

Quote from Becky Rose :I...

A pit window would be the ideal solution, I think only stops between 25-75% distance should count and a text message for "pit lane open" and "pit lane closed" should appear onscreen.

That sounds ideal to me too...

I too had to invest in a set of headphones - particularly for late night racing. In my case I went for a cordless set which work fine... & you can crank it up as much as you like
