Quote from Mazdaratie :Hi,

I treated myself with a Fanatec Porsche GT3RS wheel with Clubsport pedals. Just after 2 weeks or so I noticed the throttle bar wasn't going up 100%. Tried to play a bit with the screws behind the pedals but didn't really work. Finally I switched the throttle bar within the spring with the clutch bar. That solved it.

Now, again a few weeks later, the same thing occured. Both the clutch and the throttle bars are not fully going up while being pressed 100% (pic). When I turn the wheel off and on again everything is ok, but after pressing/depressing the pedals a couple of times it is getting worse again.

Does anyone have an idea about how to solve this? Thanks in advance!

Maz, i don't think you need full throttle anyway, hehehe...

Exporting the race results to excel

Wouldn't it be nice to have the option to save the race results and laptimes etc. to excel after a race is over? Then you could easily import it in excel and make championship listings etc.

I really would like to bump this thread again, because i think it would be very nice to have an export option to excel. We now use LFSpoints, but especially when combining results of two different races, LFSpoints has a big bug, resulting in faulty results.

I don't think LFS is dying. There are just not a lot updates, but as i see it, they are working hard to get the new tyre-physics working and this takes a lot of time. Scawen want's to have it like the real deal.
Also the new Rockingham track and the Scirocco will be implemented.

In my league (absolute-beginners.nl) we don't have less drivers and most of them are newcomers, who just bought the game. Every week we have 15-25 racers at the starting grid.

We get about 5 new members every week, so LFS is surely not dying.
New series! Open Config Racing!
Starbert
S3 licensed
Next week we will start with a new racing series, called Open Config Racing.


This championship will consist of 5 races to be held on the so called open configurations with a custom layout. We at AB have been preparing several tracks and you can find them in this post.


To make the races a bit more interesting we have come up with a restriction system as follows:


Restrictions are based on previous race standings. So 1st race no restrictions at all. Races 2, 3 ,4 & 5 numbers 1, 2 & 3 get a restriction of 9%, numbers 4, 5 & 6 get a restriction of 6%, numbers 7, 8 & 9 get a restriction of 3%. Everybody who didn't attend the race before gets a restriction similar as the numbers 1, 2 & 3, so 9%.


Points and pitwindows as in normal S2L races.


Last race will be a longer one (around 60 minutes) as this circuit will have a laptime of approximatly 3.50 minutes. The duration of the first 4 races will be approximately 45 minutes.


Below you can find the tracks that will be used with the amount of laps.


AS1X_A12 with FBM 38 laps
FE2Y_F25 with XFG/XRG 25 laps
KY2X_North with TBO 30 laps
SO6X_AB with NGT 40 laps
KY16h reverse with GT2 17 laps


The server name will be AB.nl[END]


Dates can be found in the calender and will be every 3rd week of S2L season.
