First, let me introduce the CZE vs. SVK Cup. This cup is driven on Blackwood Racetrack with demo cars - XF GTI, XR GT and Formula BMW (each race - one car) and there are 7 races to race. On Saturday, 8th November, the first race was run. In total, 10 drivers qualified into their very first race in this cup (5 Czech and 5 Slovak drivers).

Tonight was a test of nerves and consistency, and Skinny rose to that challenge by taking an exciting win in race one, and an awe inspiring win in race three when he lapped the entire field to take 30 points and an additional 80kg in success ballast.

The dbp driver kept his cool in race 1 as Flip made a cruicial mistake on the backstraight chicane on the custom layout circuit, forcing him to take to the grass. However he still managed to secure a fantastic 2nd place and went on to take a solid 3rd in race three, despite serious engine trouble.

The RallyCross Championship is a 4-race mini-series that features the RB4 GT Turbo on the rally tracks of LFS. Bumping, jumping, playing in the dirt....some of the best fun you can have getting dirty! Knobblys? Hybrids? Will you run a soft, safe, and slower suspension to avoid damage, or harder, faster, and susceptible to damage? Pick your poison, because 23 of your dirt throwing friends are waiting take advantage!

After Round 13 of the oneGP F1 World Series, seeing Erikson win in front of Wisniewski and Roby, Formula Racing is still leading the Team Championship. But the 15pts advantage does not guarantee the first place in the team's ranking.
Round 13 took place at Westhill International. After the qualifying 11 out of 12 racers were qualified for the race. The start of the race was chaotic. The start was delayed due to some issues with the Starting Order. The next try was red flagged after more than half of the field was taken out in a giant first lap crash.

LFS Estonian Championship, a long discussed event that has been waiting for its time from the beginning of the summer, will begin now!

Today, with the new portal started the registration of ECS, registration will be open for 1 month, from 8. November til 8. December. All the racers who wish to participate should be able to register within this period.

LFSCART '09 will see its first green flag weaved in April at Kyoto National Reverse, one of three new Grand Prix to the LFSCART schedule, the British Grand Prix at South City Town and the Grand Prix of Blackwood are the other two. Also new to the 2009 season will be the track of Aston National Reverse. It entered the schedule substituting Aston North, where the Grand Prix of Aston took place this summer. As LFSCART stands for road course and oval racing, LFSCART will visit again the Kyoto Oval three times, including the 2009 Kyoto 500, which will be again the highlight of the year.

GTR enthusiasts who are up for a challenge have been gifted a new racing structure in the CTRA Race 3 server with the introduction of a new car class. The GFR class came about as a result of the re-definition of the GT2 class.

The under-used XFR and UFR cars from the GT2 class are now available for CTRA Silver and above licenced drivers while the FXR-GT2, FZR-GT2 and XRR-GT2 cars now require a Gold licence to race. This change addresses several issues, including the previous lack of CTRA rewards for Gold-licenced racers since the LRF class was closed.

Round Three of the series is already upon us, as the cars and drivers travel overseas to Kyoto and prepare themselves for the forthcoming task, they will notice the magic track pixies have been hard at work and placed objects all over the lovely oval. The layout has been tried and tested, and run in general testing for the previous week, so we know it works.

Drivers are advised to take care, and if they have not done already, run a few laps around the layout. Laptimes expected are between 0:53.xx and 0:55.xx.

Everyone was looking for a close fight between the two championship contenders and the qualifying showed that everyone was right. Only three hundredths of a second. But there was still a driver who was faster. Newcomer Milos, driving for DoKu Racing took the pole-position with a one second gap and had the best position for the upcoming 42 laps of the final race.

Milos was able to keep the lead on front of ^P^Storm, who overtook FPR|Matze at the beginning of this race. Both were followed by spdo FiredUp. The race was five laps old, when DoKu.Milos spun at Turn 1After a very long recovery he had to give up.

On last Sunday the 2nd November the 2nd race of the Austrian Live For Speed championship took place. The 56 laps race was on Fern Bay Green with the XRG and XFG. Hohenauer of the Bandelnet racing team wons this race in front of Kurtz and Wachter.

A controversial 12 Hours of Kyoto Grand Prix opened the 2008-2009 Masters of Endurance season on October 4th, as a server malfunction mid-race caused the race to be red flagged and restarted on a new server. F1RST Racing claimed the GT1 victory in the event, while spdoRacing took the GT2 win in controversial fashion.

The server disturbance occurred approximately 3 hours and 20 minutes into the 12-hour race, disconnecting nearly half of the field and preventing anyone from reconnecting to the server.

Round one of the second season of the RSWC got of to a flying start, with DaveWS taking wins in both the sprint race, and the feature race, despite starting at the back of the grid on the feature race, due to the reserved grid.

Further down the grid, My3ID featured strongly, with 2 of their teams getting points, other notable results included S.Baker taking his best position in any RSC league be claiming a 6th in the feature race, also, RSC newcomer A.Pettigrew taking 7th in the feature race.

The XRT Stock Car Cup is an XRT-only stock-car type racing series consisting of 4 oval events and 4 road course events. Formerly known as the StormCup, the series includes the traditional stock car racing features such as Safety Car regulated starts/restarts, Safety Car periods, the "Lucky Dog" rule for lapped cars, and required pit stops.

Events on the Kyoto Ring Oval including the special knock-out formatted All-Star Challenge, two oval events on custom courses at the AutoCross Arena, and road course events highlight the eight event schedule.

Yann Laprevotte (GreyBull [CHA]) has been crowned LFSBC Season 2 champion after finishing 5th in the final round of the season, an endurance round at Aston Historic using GT2 spec cars. Starting from 6th on the grid, Yann managed to finish just two places behind title rival, South African Darryn Lobb (Dizzydarryn), to clinch the title by just 10 points.

The race itself was won by series creator Jack Atkinson (J@tko) - scoring his first ever League win after 2 seasons of LFSBC.

Sign-ups for NDR's latest series, the Mini-FBM series, are now open.

A new LFS dedicated host is now available, fixing several security issues where it was possible for non-administrators to take control over a host.

We therefore advise everyone who runs a dedicated host to upgrade to version Z2 as soon as possible.

Hello all,

We are pleased to announce our new LFS News section where in the future you can find not only generic news about Live for Speed, but also news about leagues and events.
Because this will become a centralised place mainly for community news, we have fitted this section with a news submission feature allowing each and every LFS racer to submit news, if they think they have something worthy to report. You can submit generic news or news about a league. You can also add images and files to your news post, just like on a forum basically, except you can use the attachments inside your text as well (see submit page for more information).
