Quote from anttt69 :Anything that gets you away from the mic is a good thing . Role on some new clean, respectful commentators.

What does clean have to do with it? I shower about once every 2 years, so should I not be behind the microphone?

Whoa! Looks like your computer had a bit of a burp and tried to correct your inputs or something. That's all I can think of.

Quote from CSF :Matt Neal 2007 finale?

Well, Matt probably would have tried to take Jason to the cleaners whether he was or was not fighting for the championship.

Quote from trebor901 : i wouldnt think it is out of the question of RML working together with VXR to help Giovanardi win the title

Totally out of the question. The sponsors don't pay each team to help each other out in their times of need. I have never seen two teams deliberately helping each other. And you know that Plato will be driving as fast as he can, like he always does. This year he's had the 'everything or bust' attitude and I don't think for a moment that it's going to change for the final 3 races.

Quote from Crashgate3 :"Flavio told me to"

Dag nab it! I was about to say that! Can I be as funny as as you anyway? Gotta be more speedy about these things...

To be fair, that statement from Gio was probably made just after he got out of the car, or half an hour later.

I bet nearly everyone here has, at some point in the past, finished an LFS league race and jumped on the forums to have a good old bitch and moan. Myself included!

Don't judge Gio for being pissed off; he had a good position on a plate and had it ruined through some contact. But yes, if you're going to give out bumps, you have to expect some in return!

Great, thanks for the links. If this forum had rep, I would give you plenty! I'll look into these in details sometime this week

I honestly am just stunned and amazed at all this. Scavier really came up trumps this time...

HOLY CRAP! That's all I have to say today. I will drink to LFS S3 tonight, that's for sure!

I'm sorry to stoop to such a low level of intelligence, but has anyone else noticed a little rhyming pattern here? Scirocco and Rockingham... OMGZORSSSS. I hope someone else hasn't already said that.

Okay, I'm done. Back to sensible speculation.

Double post: If you have any solutions that don't require an ad-hoc network and involve buying some kind of hardware, please post and link me to the product! [This includes software or hardware that can turn my PC into a makeshift router]

I can't use a router, because it gets very complicated and I'm not even sure if they're allowed.

At the very minimum I'd recommend being hard-up for the year at least, just so you can get to know some new people. And if you still fancy the cheaper home option, stay at home for years 2, 3, 4 etc. I've just moved into my halls (well, a block of student flats across the river from halls) as well, and have met quite a few people, whose company I enjoy; which is a rarity for me because I hate everyone.
Ad Hoc Networks/Network Software or Hardware

So, now I'm at university I only have one link to the internet, via an internet cable. I have a laptop and PC here with me. I want to be sociable and therefore want to have my laptop working wirelessly so I don't have to stay in my room for whenever I'm generally browsing.

My PC has a PCI wireless antenna thing, which is fully functional. Yesterday, I was able to set up and ad-hoc network between my PC (Vista Home Prem) and my laptop (W7). I was able to share their internet connections as well. It worked for a while, but I had to restart my PC a while later and since then, my adhoc network is shown as "local only" and I can't figure out how to get the PC to share its internet connection. I haven't changed anything since yesterday, which makes me very confused. How can it work one moment and, without changing anything, be non-functional?

I've googled the problem and it seems a few people have experienced it but I've found no solutions for myself. I've spent at least 2 hours trying to figure it out but with no success.

So, now I am hoping to strike lucky on this forum, hoping that someone, at one time or another, has successfully set-up an ad-hoc network which has then broken.

Any clues?

I like speculation. I don't like the reaction from users when the speculation is wrong. Kids, nothing in this thread is confirmed. Let's see if we've learned our lesson from Das Auto and act like adults when whatever is official is announced.

Quote from ACCAkut :

The engine mods could be made with tweak, but what about the fuel otions for several pit stops on the right? Or is this a pic from that old Beta version?

Don't panic... this is just an old joke to do with the LX8.

Quote from senn :Who was running the booth? Was it a company, or just a person? Is it possible someone has just made good mods using LFS engine and is charging people to use them @ that event? Seems a bit odd that the devs wouldn't be there, but maybe thats just me.


There are no oddities about LFS being run in a booth without the devs...

From what I heard from Booteh, there is a bank of 8 G25s and monitors; £2 for 10 minutes in the FOX at Rockingham. Boothy is a complete maniac, but to me it all adds up and makes sense.

That race 3 was simply stunning! I watched open-mouthed at that lap of action with Herbert. Now, he was rough, but it was just brilliant touring car raicng. Probably the best moment of the season so far!

Quote from Gil07 :The precedent has already been set :P Remember how we got to know about the Scirocco?

Christ, I forgot about that. Exactly the same situation!

Quote from Dygear :

I don't see why the devs have not locked this, I don't see why the mods have not kicked some ass and taken names. I find this hole thing disturbing, very disturbing in fact if in the next update a new track fails to materialize. This thread sets a dangerous precedent.

Why does it set a dangerous precedent? Either way, we are almost 100% sure that a laser-scanned version of Rockingham is existing in a version of LFS. Whether or not it's going to be released is another matter; but this thread is perfectly valid.

Quote from jwardy :finally 5 pages for someone to click .

I said it on page 2! Go me, I clicked on something.

Quote from Mp3 Astra :Nope. That was some kind of blank airfield.

However, Rockingham is used regularly by another one of LFS' affiliates, the V1 championship........

I'm willing to bet 85 trillion Zimbabwe dollars that this is true. Just thought I'd add that to the speculation.

Nope. That was some kind of blank airfield.

This is what Valve like to do with Team Fortress updates... Let the community stew for a few days and then throw it at them with an announcement or something. This is great!
