Wow, looks alot better in-game than i thought it would. The wheels dont look as good as i thought they would, they definetely need to put more vertex's in there. Im really curious what the finished interior will look like, and whether it has the actual VW wheel
I guess the difference here is that manufacturers limit the torque curves (and performance) of their engines for some reason, be it durability, marketing or whatever. You're talking about some issue with the principle of an engine, which has to be solved with this limitation for the engine to work? At least that's what I think, care to shed some light on the 'artificial limitation' you meant?
Although not limited to fuel injected engines, throttle bodies are a generic limitation that I can think of. But they're not needed, as proven by BMW.
I'd think more like end of 2008... If its ready for the convention tomorow there shouldnt be any HUGE changes made by the time of its official release... at least I don't think so... So maybe itll be a year end present or Xmass

[quote=Scawen]Just in case anyone was wondering, it will be much, much longer away than that.
As said, the release is undecided - that means I cannot say (even roughly) when it will be - but I can say you might as well forget about driving it until a long time from now.
Sorry but that's how it is right now. Something for the future.[quote/]
Imo, "much much longer" and "forget about driving it until a long time from now" and "future" (considering the LFS's time to develop, christmas would be more like "present") doesn't mean a few months, means more like a year
You expect him to read through 20+ pages of posts, 90% of which are useless comments and speculation? I find the rate at which this thread is going nothing short of mind boggling. That people can get so excited and worked up over the prospect of a new car... it's kind of sad when you think about it, I find
And before you ask: no I'm not following this thread at all. In fact, I searched for a "ignore thread" option but was disappointed to find that such a thing doesn't exist. The only reason I checked these last few posts was because I saw your name in the "last post" field and got curious
It's unfortunate that when trying to "search this thread" for anything related to "Scawen", I just get 55 posts with the word "Scawen" but no posts by Scawen himself.
Why don't you search for the user Scawen in stead of the word Scawen?
I think you have to do your homework again. It has less HP (but only 5 to 10) but maybe there are other differences. I expect the TBO's to be a little prepared for the circuit and if the VW is a default roadcar with a default roadcar setup and tires it can never compete. But since i red something about a Scirocco cup maybe it is also tuned for track use.
I'd say the car will be released at the same time as the next scheduled update of LFS itself. My guess is that it'll be released in December, probably before Christmas if possible. If not, the release would probably be in February of '09. Just speculation nothing more.
