To be serious, I did have another car in mind, when you told me greyish Red Bull livery... so I have done this one here... who can find out, of what car I thought when making this skin?
anyways I hope you like it, though it is more of a freedom of the artists
Rothmans Livery for LX4, and a metallic skin with flames for LX6...
Some more I made a while ago but never posted.
Marlboro Livery for XRG and XRT...

I'm involved with the UK Scalextric collectors' assocation, we produce an annual slot car (1/32 scale) with a club livery but as has been mentioned already, the issue is quantities, particularly in the current economic climate. Sometimes we can get away with a minimum order of 500 from some manufacturers but more often than not it's 1000. So you would really need a lot of interest to make 1000 worthwhile, and even then they sell at 30-40 UK pounds. It would certainly be cheapest to put an LFS livery on a previously-modelled car, rather than try and model one anew, using the closest available match. Something I'm looking into at the moment is the possibility of an LFS team livery on something like a Porsche 997 (an existing model), which you could either use as a slot car or take the guide blade out and have it on your desk as a static model. I *think* the only LFS car that already exists as a slot car model is the BMW F1, although there are close matches in LFS with other slot car models like Caterhams, Supras, Astras etc. Otherwise if you want to ask a manufacturer to make a decent model of a car "just for you" that doesn't relate to anything in real life that they could re-use the moulds for in the future, I imagine the costs would be exhorbitant.
Nope, it's majority owned by Proton. I don't think it is owned by Toyota at all.
I'd rather they went for a British Racing Green livery, although Prodrive might want that themselves ...

They Better have the Black and Gold livery.
Btw idk if they will get Lotus road cars to agree as they are part owned by Toyota so it might conflict.

Special offer, any Kyoto 500 competitor who requests a livery of one of the Indianapolis 500 cars, will get it within two days, completely new made and totally fullfilling all the skin rules!
The Epic Police Pram
Many of you have been eagerly anticipating the creation of this. One of you has indeed called the idea truly '1337'. Although most of you probably don't give a toss (If so please go away 
).
We're making it for a charity pram race. Whilst there is a prize for best pram, there is no prize for best paint job.
But here it is anyway
Joseph's Epic Police Pram (Work in progress)
So I started by sanding down the areas for painting, which was followed by masking it all up for painting, and then spraying with white primer.
Then, the Flourescent yellow paint went on
And finally, the lacquer
And once all the masking tape was removed, I uncovered this:
I'm a bit annoyed, because in a way it looks too good to have been done by my dad and myself
2 Cans of White Primer: £10
2 Cans of Flourescent Yellow Paint: £10
A Flourescent yellow police pram: Priceless
If you're wondering where the hell the seat is, I un-clipped it so that it didn't get covered in paint. I'm gonna attach some thin bits of plywood to the side to allow me to do a police livery. I have already bought a siren which I shall fit soon, and I may also get some blue flashing lights. My dad wants to run a rotating beacon light off a 12v battery, although that would probably be too heavy, and generally epic fail
More work is expected on the police pram in the next 2 weeks
I know, my beloved pram really isn't that special

My first skin
Hi guys, this is my first skin made for LFS. It's made to resemble the Trans Island bus services livery. I know the skin colouring is abit crude cos I made it entirely in MS Paint using the paint brush. But still, it looks pretty good in game, except for uneven colouring (due to shaky hands )
Trans Island Bus Services is a bus operator in Singapore. It has since been merged into SMRT Group to form SMRT Buses. The livery is of a red and black one. To me it looked pretty disgusting :P The Trans Island livery is way cooler... XD
For comparison:
The real life:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/ianfuller/52610803/
In-game:
the first two attachments of the XRG in garage
For Singaporeans, it'll be more familiar to you. Anyway, enjoy!
P.S. Any kind S2 soul can help me upload the skin to LFSW. If you could help me upload it, great thanks to you!
P.S.2 Pardon me for using the old XRG template as I couldn't find the one for Patch Z in JPG format. But still works a treat.

Okey... please make sure you do use a different livery for the car wich will start as privateer for this event. For example you can use a red or yellow livery, or even a livery you regulary use for the Kyoto 500 (If you have CART logo pack on it)

i`d say so
make the test to find out how much. depending on car some parts wont be stretched.Maybe you try to make a Samsung livery by starting with the logo big on the sides.
Yeah I realised (same livery is a bit of a giveaway you know...) but why did you almost run into each other then?
Great Skin!
If you believe it or not, I´ve just played GT Legends driving a Ford Escort with that livery.
BrawnGP's livery isn't anything special, although it does look well, I think its only been worn due to the fact Brawn are running away in F1. 
As requested I tried applying the Brawn GP livery onto the RB4.
Annoyingly "Imageshack" seems not to allow names containing underscores so you have to rename it after eventually downloading.

The future of motorsport? - I thought I could smell cabbage.
The vegetable racing car that runs on chocolate
May 05 2009
Here's a green motorsport vision with a difference: a racing car built from vegetables and running on waste chocolate.
Conceived and constructed by experts at Warwick University, the WorldFirst Formula 3 car takes environmentalism to extreme new levels.
If you excuse the vegetable, uh, garnish, the WorldFirst doesn't look all that unusual in the photographs. As a Formula 3 design it appears exactly like the miniature F1 car it is trying to be. The differences come at root - haha - level. This car isn't quite as simple as it seems.
Take the steering wheel. It's a composite material, made from carrots, and other root vegetables. The wing mirrors are made out of potato starch. Flax fibre finds its way into the seat shell, the bib, and the wing endplates. The seat foam is derived from soybean oil and recycled polyester.
Air cleaning radiators and biodiesel
The bodywork sidepods are a combination of glass fibre and resin produced from recycled plastic bottles. There's more recycled plastic in the wiring loom, along with recycled aluminium. Recycled carbon fibre is used for the engine cover and damper hatch. Meanwhile the brakes are deliberately not carbon composite for eco purposes.
Soon the brake pads will be constructed from cashew nut shells - an innovation cribbed from the WorldFirst's Warwick predecessor, EcoOne (a small Formula Student single seater that also featured potato tyres and hemp bodywork). Apparently even the WorldFirst's livery is recyclable. And the radiators actually clean the air as it moves.
That's because these are coated with a special catalyst that converts ozone to oxygen. Under the hood, the 2.0-litre turbodiesel engine has been recalibrated by Scott Racing to run on biodiesel - incorporating waste chocolate and vegetables - and all its lubrication is based on plant oils. It's a comprehensive piece of work.
As for performance - cornering speeds are up to 125mph...
Meet the team
The team behind the project are all based at Warwick University, encompassing the Warwick Innovative Manufacturing Research Centre and Warwick Manufacturing Group. Project Manager is James Meredith, assisted by Dr Kerry Kirwan, Dr Steve Maggs, Steve Lambert and Ben Wood - who also project managed EcoOne. Best of luck to them.
You might, however, be wondering what the point is. WorldFirst is simply an attempt to prove there's more to green motoring thinking than adjusting the engine technology - as seems to be the case with most of the eco road cars currently available. This project shows sustainability can be far more widespread.
"It's been very exciting working on the project and important for our team to develop a working example of a truly 'Green' motor racing car," comments Meredith. "The WorldFirst project expels the myth that performance needs to be compromised when developing the sustainable motor vehicles of the future"
Right on.

Murray Motorsport Cup Re-born!
Murray Motorsport Cup Season 2:
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A SIGN UP THREAD AND ALL OF THE FOLLOWING IS JUST COPIED AND PASTED HERE FROM HERE SO IF IT SAYS "TO DO SOMETHING IN A THREAD IN THIS SUB-FORUM" IT MEANS HERE
SIGN UPS OFFICIALLY OPEN HERE !
Hi Guys,
After a disappointing first season of the Murray Motorsport Cup, the league is back and better than ever. The rules/ info are found below. The sign ups are not open yet, they will be open 4-5 weeks before the first round (late may early June) so please be patient.
GENERAL:
The Murray Motorsport Cup Season 2 will be similar to the last season in a lot of ways, the car is the main way its similer as its still ONLY XFG. Last season there were prizes for the top three finishers in the cup, this season there will be a prize for the winner of the cup and the highest overall climber from all the races added together. Another small change is that in the Murray Motorsport Cup season 1 the person who got fastest lap got 1 extra point and the person who got pole position received 1 extra point too, but in this season to limit the amount of points the winner of the round will get (as the person who gets pole position, fastest lap and race wins are usually the same person) you will still receive an extra point for pole position but not fastest lap, instead the highest climber will get an extra point. This is explained in more detail at the bottom of the page. We will also be using weight ballasts which are explained further down the page. The Murray Motorsport Season 2 will also have 3 races on half of the rounds during the season and last season we only had 2 races each round.
PRIZES:
The prize for first place in the cup will be Sparco Pit lane shoes worth €61.73 in the colour and size of your choice, the Summer selection(bright colours) are found here and the Winter selection(dark colours) are found here and the winner of the cup can choose (subject to availability) ANY of the runners found in the winter selection or the summer selection. The highest climber will receive any of the following three fireproof, fully homologated racing gloves. If the winner of the cup is the highest climber then we will go to the second highest climber and award him/her the prize. You can Choose from the lico base gloves found here, Sparco Hurricane gloves found here, or the Sparco Land gloves found here. These gloves range from €38.00 to €45.00 and are available in any colour or size. All of these prizes are provided by Murray Motorsport www.murraymotorsport.ie
WHEN?
The cup will start on Sunday the 5th of July. The series will run One day a week, most weeks, it will be on at 19.00 GMT. You must confirm availability before each round in the thread labeled “Round 1 Sign ups” if its round 1 or “Round 2 Sign ups” if it is round two etc... If you do not confirm availability before 17.00 GMT (BST/UTC+1) you will have to start at the back of the grid for race one.
THE WEBSITE:
Our website is under construction and will be up and running hopefully well before the series starts to post the results/cup stats/driver stats/championship standings there. There will also be replays of every official practice qualifying and race uploaded to the website as well.
BROADCAST/ LIVERY:
The series will be broadcasted so you will need to apply number plates to your skin and post the skin in the thread labelled “Skins”, in the MMS Cup Season 2 sub-forum. You will also be asked to have a Murray Motorsport logo on the car, I will post a logo in a closed thread labelled “MMS Logo” but this is not compulsory, but as we are giving out over €100 for this cup we would greatly appreciate if you guys would participate and put a logo on your car if you are unable to due to lack of space etc… we would understand. We will have commentators for the events too.
WHO’S RUNNING IT?
The event will be run by me (Niall Murray[n-murray]) and Andy O’ Brien [aobrien] but Andy and I will be participating in the event so NDR (New Dimensions Racing), who run many excellently run championships, leagues, challenges, cups and events such as LFSBC (LFS beginner challenge) season 1, 2 and now the season three which is running with NDRC (NDR Challenge) Kyoto 250, new year events and many, many more will be running it during the races and helping after with the results, reports, championship standings etc...etc…,
EACH NIGHT:
There are 6 Rounds in the season and 3 of those rounds have 2 races a night and 3 have 3 races. If there are 2 races that night then qualifying will be 15 minutes long and 20 minutes long if there are 3 races, there will be 35 mins (approx.) of racing if there are 2 races a night and 40 mins (approx.) if there are 3 races. Each race night will consist of official practice where the drivers MUST be in the server for it but it is not mandatory, Qualifying and 2-3 races. If a driver arrives into the server late they will be put back 4 places in the qualifying results. If there are two races that night for race 1 your grid position is where you qualify but for race two the top 8 will be reversed to give the people that crashed in race one or qualifying a chance. If there is three races that night then you will start race one where you qualify and start race two where you finish for race 1 but for race three I will draw a number between 1 and 10 will be drawn from a hat and from that number will be reversed (if I draw 8 from the hat then the drivers that finished race 2 from 1st to 8th will get reversed). There will be points awarded for the top eight drivers. Pole position and highest climber will both receive 1 extra point.
WEIGHT BALLAST:
We will also be introducing weight ballast to the MMS Cup. It will be used in all rounds including the first round with the exception of the first race in the first round. The ballast is determined by your result from the previous race. For race Two on in the first round you will be required to have 25 kg if you win race one which means everyone ahead of you will have ballast on there car as the top 8 get reversed. For race 3 that night if you win again you will have to carry 25 kg of ballast. If you win race 3 then you will have to carry your ballast in ALL officially timed sessions (ie: Official Practice and Qualifying) of the next round and race one.
Race Position.............................Weight Ballast (Kg without fuel or driver)
......1st......................................... ..............25
......2nd......................................... ..............23
......3rd......................................... ..............21
......4th......................................... ..............18
......5th......................................... ..............15
......6th......................................... ..............13
......7th......................................... ...............9
......8th......................................... ...............5
WANT TO SIGN UP?
Sign ups will be open about 3-5 weeks before the first round(31st May-14 June)and closed the day before the first event (Saturday 4th June) at 20.00, so we would like you to copy and paste the following into this thread and fill it out.

Preferred Number:
Real Name:
NOTE: not every number will be available all of the time so I will post here what numbers are taken so if you don’t want your number taken sign up quick! Also you will have to upload a replay into this thread, with a time within 104% of the WR on any of the tracks on the calendar in XFG.
CALENDAR:
Please find the calendar in the thread called “MMS Cup Season 2 Calendar”.
CHAT:
The rule for chat is from the time when an admin says “No Chat” till when an admin says “Free To Chat” there cannot be any chat. If you chat during a race an admin will give you a drive through penalty straight away and there’s no exceptions (unless otherwise stated from an admin). If you do not take your drive through penalty within 3 laps from the next time you cross the start/finish line after it was given to you, it will go to the next stage and the stages are drive through penalty then stop-go penalty then 1 lap holding penalty [stay in a pit box until leader has passed the point he was at when you first came to the pit box (one full leader lap)] then a black flag(disqualification from session). If you fail to do a drive through within three laps but the race is over during those three laps you will receive a 20-30 second penalty considering the severity of the offence, you will also receive a 20 second penalty if you chat on the last lap.
Dropped Round:
The dropped round rule allows drivers that got hit off or messed up on one round to still be in with a chance of winning the cup. There are 6 rounds, so for the dropped round you drop the round that you scored the least amount of points in. At the end of the cup the points will be added up and you get your final score by adding your best 5 rounds.
Feel free to pm me or Andy about Anything to do with the cup.

If you do not take your drive through penalty within 3 laps from the next time you cross the start/finish line after it was given to you, it will go to the next stage and the stages are drive through penalty then stop-go penalty then 1 lap holding penalty [stay in a pit box until leader has passed the point he was at when you first came to the pit box (one full leader lap)] then a black flag(disqualification from session). If you fail to do a drive through within three laps but the race is over during those three laps you will receive a 20-30 second penalty considering the severity of the offence, you will also receive a 20 second penalty if you chat on the last lap.
Dropped Round:
The dropped round rule allows drivers that got hit off or messed up on one round to still be in with a chance of winning the cup. There are 6 rounds, so for the dropped round you drop the round that you scored the least amount of points in. At the end of the cup the points will be added up and you get your final score by adding your best 5 rounds.
Feel free to pm me or Andy about Anything to do with the cup.
AND REMEMBER IN THIS SEASON WE HAVE PEOPLE TO WATCH YOU ON THE TRACK SO ANY CRASHERS WILL BE PUNISHED !
Thanks in advance

My first completed skin. Actually, just about my first skin, period...
The story behind it was that it started as a skin to advertise my fictitious racing team, which I used (and will use again) in a roleplay on the forum displayed on the rear spoiler. Eventually, I started to incorporate bits of the storyline I had created in the past two events into this skin. One of my characters, who is prone to bouts of immaturity, wrote something on my other character's helmet. (Anyone who's seen the Top Gear Vietnam Special will get an idea of what was written on the helmet in question) The retaliation for that act was originally to sew a large patch of that thing onto his overalls. The pink livery and gay pride flags haphazardly affixed next to his name are a continuation of that (or would have been, had I not agreed to a partnership with another competitor. That one character is straight, just to make it even funnier.)
