I said that ages ago, it won't happen I don't think.

all use same set, thats better

theres these things, they call em live settings, so locking everything but the tyres=impossible to monitor.

Well, it would be unfair on some drivers if they all used the exact same setup because it'll be fine for some and horrible for others and aside from that, in the real Supercup, drivers are allowed to tweak certain settings so want to keep it as real as possible . Devs really need to implement a setup restriction system though. I mean, can't they just do it like intake/weight restrictions but just send 132 Bytes extra?

But why don't just have the 10%intake restriction and the other if there was, and other things are changeable, it would be alot easier and not so much mess...

cuz that wouldn't be realistic enough

btw, Lep, would you mind updating the race schedule. I'm not really sure if westhill is still before the summer break or its moved to fall part of the season.

By the way, in rules is listed that only r3 tyre compund is allowed.
Is it possible to make sure that nobody changes on another tyre compund than r3 during qualifing session or race?

Well maybe reviewing the replays and stats would show if anyone has made changes, but i don't think it will be a problem.

Sorry

I have to withdraw from the league also, because of real-life things.

It appears that I won't be able to make the race tomorrow due to real-life things that I simply can't get out of.

I hate to join the band wagon, but i have a work function on thursday evening that im MC'ing for. sorry guys... will still do remainder of the season tho

Could you please tell us some reason? (just wondering)

I rtoo can't make it tonight since i'm going to church. Will this race be counted in the cup at all anyway since there's the mini and full season in the calendar.

no, they will each be seperate championships. Look at this round as being a one-off event

23:13… @My3id|TimmY: DILDO!
23:13… +scipy:
23:13… +scipy: rofl
23:13… +scipy: timmy has like a highlight
23:13… +scipy: wheneva someone says dildo
23:13… +scipy: he's the first one on scene
23:13… @My3id|TimmY:
23:14… @My3id|r4p: lol
23:15… @My3id|r4p: saw GT3 race replay... was :X
23:15… @My3id|r4p: 8 drivers + T1 noobness
23:15… @My3id|r4p: glad we arent in it
23:15… +scipy: rofl
23:15… +scipy: i wanted to drive that GT3 cup
23:15… +scipy: until i saw their "rules"
23:15… +scipy: about a "setup"
23:16… +scipy: with 240 N/mm springs
23:16… +scipy: ktnxbye .
23:16… +scipy: idiots.
23:16… @My3id|r4p:
23:17… +scipy: they dont understand that in LFS
23:17… +scipy: what u set as a spring
23:17… +scipy: is a direct wheel rate
23:17… +scipy: cause it's simulated that way
23:17… +scipy: motion ratio is 1
23:17… @My3id|r4p: wheel rate?
23:17… +scipy: ehm.
23:17… +scipy: ****en zafa
23:17… +scipy: doesnt know anything
23:17… +scipy: ok
23:17… @My3id|r4p: :X
23:17… +scipy: if the spring is mounted directly above the wheel
23:17… +scipy: totally vertical
23:17… +scipy: above it's axis
23:18… +scipy: then spring rate is equal to wheel rate
23:18… +scipy: so when a wheel moves 1 inch
23:18… +scipy: spring moves 1 inch
23:18… +scipy: but
23:18… +scipy: if u ever looked under a wheel arch of a car
23:18… +scipy: coilover dampers with a spring
23:18… +scipy: are usually mounted
23:18… @My3id|r4p: :O
23:18… +scipy: a bit sideways
23:18… +scipy: like /
23:18… @My3id|r4p: yah
23:18… +scipy: if u look from front
23:18… +scipy: this means that
23:18… +scipy: as a wheel deflects 1 inch
23:18… +scipy: spring is gonna deflect more
23:18… +scipy: cause it has "leverage" over the wheel
23:19… @My3id|r4p: yah
23:19… +scipy: via the suspension arm etc
23:19… +scipy: so
23:19… +scipy: u acutally use harder springs
23:19… +scipy: or softer
23:19… +scipy: depending on the motion ratio
23:19… @My3id|r4p: i see
23:19… +scipy: how much wheel moves compared to how much spring moves
23:19… +scipy: divided by 2
23:19… +scipy: or sumtin
23:19… +scipy: SO
23:19… @My3id|r4p: but theres one thing i dunno understand
23:19… +scipy: IRL porsche
23:19… +scipy: will use a 240 N spring
23:19… @My3id|r4p: :O
23:19… +scipy: but the motion ratio
23:19… +scipy: will divide that
23:19… +scipy: by some value
23:20… +scipy: so u will get a "wheel rate"
23:20… +scipy: of 90 N/mm
23:20… +scipy: but in LFS we use 90 right away
23:20… +scipy: cause the spring is simulated as a vertical force thingy
23:20… @My3id|r4p: :O
23:20… +scipy: if u look at the F view
23:20… +scipy: u will notice it's just a huge verical bar.
23:20… +scipy: so motion ratio = 1
23:20… @My3id|r4p: :X
23:20… +scipy: so 240 N/mm spring in LFS = idiotic.
23:20… +scipy: so GT3 cup = idiotic
23:21… +scipy: and run by idiots.
23:21… @My3id|r4p: yaya.. is all good - but i dunno understand something
23:21… +scipy:
23:21… @My3id|Evolution: i like the conclusions
23:21… +scipy:
23:21… @My3id|r4p: what does this have to do with u and dildoes?
23:21… +scipy: i should start charning these convos
23:21… +scipy: u see
23:21… +scipy: a dildo has it's springrate
23:21… @My3id|Evolution: rofl
23:21… @My3id|r4p: true
23:21… +scipy: so depending on how the tip is tilted in regards to the base
23:21… @My3id|Banister: hahahaha
23:21… @My3id|r4p: u move 1 inch, doldo moves 2?
23:21… +scipy: this is important
23:21… +scipy: cause the motion ratio changes
23:21… +scipy: exactly!
23:22… @My3id|r4p: i gets it
23:22… +scipy: i think i've peaked the humor of that

that conversation might shed some light

LoL! Start and the end was funny, nearly fell asleep in the middle though, we all know how much you know about dildo's so i doubt anyone will contest that.

scipy scipy scipy, just marry me, I want to learn your extensive knowledge of dildos lol

Scipy i don't know about Porsches and stuff, but LMPs for example use something close to 1:1 ratio. As i said, dunno about road cars but i'd say it's colse to that too (not so in the double wishbone setup, is so in the MacPhearson strut and trailing arm, that one has a lower ratio since the spring is not mounted on the axle line). And yes, there is a slight angle but once you have angles of 70° (MacPhearson strut) and over, the differences are small. When the spring is at 64° and the force at 90° (or when they are 26° appart, you'll have 90 % of the wheel force acting on the spring (and the 10% acting in some other way, not doing any work on the spring). So it's not so huge. Again, don't know about double wishbone setups as i haven't really seen any up close and personal, but i do know something about leverages and stuff mainly from physics and the other part from mountain bikes (where anturally, the closer you get to 1:1, the nicer the bikes acts when riding over small bumps since the shock is more sensetive to small changes as it's got a long stroke and stuff, also the leverage is important since you get a progresive or regresive suspension. Generally linear or progresive is better since regresive will make it easy to obttom out, but there are other sweetspots and stuff - it really is a science).

I have my own skin: no - any skin would do

i gotta withdraw too

In that case, Team Top Gear (G!NhO and me) are withdrawing from the competition.

Sorry to cause any trouble

Good luck tonight guys, hope it runs smoothly!

I'm out too, sorry. Didn't touch LFS for the whole summer and i don't know how much time i'll have in the future.
