jesus, u approach 7 or 8 companies and 3 will sponsor!

thats a pretty good success rate, put them in contact with me please!

if you have never raced before, u will struggle to do any good, no offence but its just a fact.

Quote from jfgcatalan :

It was silly, specifically slowing from your front of the grid positions at the start.
-It made T1 even more dangerous than usual, with everyone trying to get around two abnormally slow cars.
-It put you always behind slower drivers. I guess it's more fun to catch people at 2 seconds per lap instead of following someone that can match your pace.
-90% of your passes involve some kind of contact. Having "sorry" bound to a button isn't a real solution for that.

When one of you were behind me I knew that it was in my best interest to behave as if I were blue flagged or risk a punt at the next coner. You might call it hard lifelike racing, but it felt like bullying to me, this >< short of wrecking in fact.

i enjoy coming from the back of the field, and when we slowed down it was totally off the racing line, and no accidents were caused.

and the 90% contact thing, it was only occasionally a slight touch on OUR side of my car when we overtook, because people didnt see us coming (or did see us but turned in regardless). i have many replays of overtakes from a long way back, some see it coming and leave a gap, others turn in, make slight contact on my car then get overtaken by the driver behind me aswell.

i am not arguing with anyone here, i am just making a point so dont start cussing me please

PS i dont have a sorry key mapped and because i use mouse i have to let off the gas to type sorry

this thread has got a bit personal!

that pass was from way too far back in a tiny braking zone to work, bound to end in disaster!

i wonder what happened to Arrechee, he was awesome

i dont like being reffered to as a kid, and karting is not a amater 'league'

this is a video from the final super 1 round held at shenington, i am the driver in the yellow helmet

as you can see, karting at national level is very hard but clean, and u have to think very fast.

myself and alan would just like to see races like this in LFS

we've had real life races for simmers, now time for sim races for real lifers

like i said, this isnt a thread for discussing driving, or it will become an argument and get locked!

i dont understand the problem here, intrepid would like a league to race like minded people, and u guys are saying its 'elitist crap'

yes, it is elitist, because most people drive like pussies, and there are plenty of leagues for pussies.

this thread isnt a about driving so dont bother to reply
PS sidi is a good racer too alan.

the point is tho, an agressive driver doesnt have u off the track every few laps, if anything they are more predictable than the 'clean' ones.

i treat every1 as agressive until they prove me otherwise. then i can start to stick on the outside or drive through chicanes side by side, stuff that wouldnt happen (normally) in real life

theres a difference between agression and plain firing/binning/wrecking

i went and it was good!!

belgium is a nice country too

haha this thread is rediculous

u care about the realism of somebody who isnt wearing racing clothes and yet u dont mind when the manner in which u race and what u think is acceptable and isnt is TOTALLY unrealistic!!!!

by the way i do agree, the clothes model is very unrealistic. i myself drive nude in real life.

i guess u are right man yea

AJP weaving is not acceptable ATALL and is frowned upon alot more than binning someone!! one of my m8s was called into the clerk of the course for firing someone, once my m8 had explained to the CoC that the guy he fired was weaving, he was let off the hook.
PS we arent talking about toy go-carts, have a look at this vid of me testing last week and see the kind of speeds they hit! so any bad driving is actually DANGEROUS

weaving is dangerous

and also, i think me and u have a different understanding of the word 'firing' to me, it means to push sum1 wide and pass by nudging them. u and they continue with 0 damage. wrecking is t boning sum1 with no brakes and u both go out of the race, i would never do that (and only once or twice have done, years ago)

i love overtaking, i have got loads of replays of overtakin n all that, and to me a race is a RACE, not a series of hotlaps (like 99% of people believe) the only time when i will push sum1 wide is if i believe they would take me out if i passed them properly!!

doesnt matter anyway, its not like im ever gunna lap u, and even if i did i would know u are sensible enuf not to do anything silly.

i remember racing u a fair bit and we had some hot races, so u know i dont fire people for a laugh!

im not a wrecking cheating scum, i just admit to pushing backmarkers wide if they block me or swerve around etc.

atleast im honest

Quote from ajp71 :

From someone who idolizes a very dirty driver and has publicly admitted to weaving and wrecking backmarkers

i resent that statement. i would NEVER weave! if a backmarker doesnt move id fire him wide tho so yea u are entitled to say that!

Quote from J.B. :

First Alonso tries to blackmail his boss, then he does a dirty move on his team mate. I officially want Hamilton to win it now.

wasnt dirty driving

schumi and senna may have been 'dirty' at times but at the end of the day, they are just professionals trying to achieve the best results they can. soldiers kill each other as a profession, F1 racing drivers screw each others races up!

senna was the fastest ever

its hard to explain, but the way the FOX reacts, turns in etc is very similar to a kart, the way it turns in, grips and slides. i just get the same 'feel' from it.

the MRT is not very similar to a kart because it isnt progressive enough, you are on the limit then you just lose it, where as the FOX is quite predictable around the limit.

yep

the FOX handles exactly like a kart, at most tracks.

id love to start from the back every race

in karting we have a punishment where by if u do something naughty, you are sent to the back of the grid...

and I was wondering, would it be a good idea for the admins to have this power in LFS..?
