I'd suggest you to disable the speedstep and C1E in bios, i have and it wont hurt you when you turn these off, so you can be sure you got full power always, but its your decision.

Quote from robt :maybe i should have stayed on the USA map, fuel is more expensive on the europe map and youre right about contracts, if we can get 25 members in the company contracts can pay at LEAST $1.50 a mile.

Every leg you drive the fuel price is different. Prices range from 1.85 to 3.00.
I have 350 gallon fuel tank, prices are offcourse little bit higher when refueled to 100%, but lasts longer too.
Purchasing items is only good if you have atleast 1997 kenworth w900, thats really good truck for its price and i recommend every new player to get to that truck as fast as possible.

Thanks for these tips, i actually thought too that my last turn need to be improved.
When i try to get back to throttle as early as possible, i sometimes start sliding, thats obviously because i slam throttle too hard, but when i try to press throttle smooth, i then again wait too long. I cant find the point where car wont start sliding, but would be as fast as possible.

Later i try to practise again , thanks for setup and tips again.

Ok I have mainly racing AS2 FOX combo lately and i want to know what exactly is my problem, i get slow times, averaging 1.03.xx, but my PB is 1.02.78. I havent raced thousands of laps like most do, only 93 laps still maybe there is something i can still improve.

I added SPR replay of 5 laps, also note that some days i do better, some days i do really bad.

Im only good at oval because i have done obviously thousands of laps there, so i guess thats my problem on other tracks, i need to do thousands of laps.

Ok yes actually if done right its good, ignore my post about burnout.

But what i actually wanted to say that sometimes when i shift while full throttle, sometimes clutch wont heat up, but sometimes again it does, i got DFP and auto clutch on at options.

You could take 500w PSU, but i think buying once a nice high wattage Powersupply will serve you for a long time, i think you should go with 750w if the price is not too big difference.

What inch monitor you are looking for? Can you please send the link from where you are buying from, so its easier to suggest items.
Also consider Western Digital harddrivers too, they're really good.

Clutches do heat way way way too fast, and now dont tell me that im driving wrong, you should still be able to do burnouts etc, but in LFS burnouts are basically a suicide.

Guys if you are going to do pictures, please put some anti aliasing on, it hurts eyes so much to watch these pictures, like watching into sun with naked eye.

Quote from mrodgers :$5000 for 2000 miles? $500 for 300 miles? I get $400 for 600 miles! What are you all doing?

I have no idea what a "hot route" is. I see when in the route screen, I click on the city and the demand listed is in red. Is this a hot route? I ran one of these and made $300. Not exactly "Hot" at $0.50 per mile, IMO. I still haven't seen a route that pays more than $0.71 per mile.

I posted a extremely useful link few posts above
http://www.swgarchive.com/truckz/loads.htm

Here you can sort all columns however you want, by ppm, by miles etc.
Note that you can not haul when route is less than 300 miles, you can drive, but you wont get any money.

So, i look on that link and sort routes in North america by PPM.


1.69 277 $ 470.90 El_Paso Clothing Albuquerque
1.36 403 $ 548.08 Toronto Clothing Trenton

The first one is no use, because its only 277 miles, less than 300.
So, take a look on the second route, 403 miles and pays 548. Go to toronto and pick up clothing to, drive to trenton.

Remember, loads change every midnight Sunday and Wednesday, so keep checking then this link and sometimes the routes are better, sometimes not.

Check this site, http://www.swgarchive.com/truckz/loads.htm

here you can sort it like by ppm, or supply or demand and else, you can check hot routes with it.
NEVER haul general merchandise, its useless and gives you less money

btw bought myself oversized load endorsment (yay i can haul 56.000 lbs now) and started contract route, pays me $5000 for 2000 miles
