Quote from Hyperactive :40 out of 960
(I think that's the way the tracks, I mean configs, are calculated nowadays. After all, 1 out of 6 sounds kinda "less" )

But you don`t race many tracks IRL reversed - do you..
Although Virginia is wonderfull reversed..

Quote from henrico-20- :
Good news for the Iracers! in this way you don't have to buy tracks/cars you earn the money by winning.

I have to pay for the cars/tracks, because I will never win..

He wrote most of them. Thats why I reacted. There are two more ovals - I would not call that MOST OF THEM. If he counted the ovals with road courses in them for ovals, then most of them is ovals.
It depends on how you count the word MOST. Two more oval tracks than road courses is not what I call most..
Sry mister i can count..
Its sounded like there was very few Road Courses in iRacing. But 9 out of 20 is a very high number. How many has we in LFS?

But they are called Road Courses and I`m enjoying racing on the Daytona Road Course as they do IRL.
And the other INFIELD Road Courses are also very great..

I like Lowe`s Road Course in Skip Barber.

Daytona has different track layouts as Silverstone has different track layouts.

What about Rockingham - is it only a oval track? Or a Road track? Or just a track with different layouts..

http://www.rockingham.co.uk/about/circuits.asp

But saying that iRacing has most oval ttracks is not right.
If you remove the oval tracks with infield road track layouts, you have 11 pure ovals. So saying that iRacing has mostly ovals is not right.

9 pure Road Courses
11 pure Ovals

Road courses to come is

Road Atlanta
Mosport Park

What should we then call Kyoto in LFS? It uses the oval in the config. Is that an oval or a road course? Ok the oval is called an oval and the road course is called..ehmm an Road Course, no?


Edit:
In the LFS manual is written: Kyoto Ring - In this Japanese environment, the atmosphere is set by the tri-oval, the "ring", which links together all configurations. It has one oval and two road configurations, plus reverse.

Quote from hrtburnout :, except for the fact that most of them are ovals

I was bored of it after messing around for a few hours.

What? Most ovals, in iRacing?

9 Road Tracks.
16 Oval yes, but 5 of them has Road Courses in them too..Daytona, Homestead, Atlanta, Phoenix and Lowe`s.

A guy like him should be punished a lot harder. It`s very stupid to do it in that way..
He should know it`s not ok to rejoin the track in that way...

Quote from Hyperactive :Anyhoo, I started 13th, dead last, on the grid with one simple goal in mind. No incidents whatsoever. After 1st lap I was 7th, after 8 laps I was 4th and I finished 2nd . I did not even pass anyone on the track, everyone just spun off.

I think I was in that race. I saw your comments after the race about starting last and finished second..
But not everybody spun, some got pushed off by others - and sadly I was one of them!..
#3 in that race had 16 Inc. in one race. There are a lot of bad drivers in iRacing...

In Formula Mazda there are room for 20 on the server. That requires a C license or a D license SR above 4.0

And I think there will be 30 in Radical this season who requires a B license or a C license with SR over 4.0

Quote from deggis :Have the devs (at that only-iRacing-players-allowed forum) told about any plans how the tracks are going get updated? In some press release long time ago it was said "if there's going to be a change in the real track, it's going to be in the game too" or something like that.

For example the real Lime Rock has been raped few months ago. Repaved and there are two chicanes now. Old layout is still there though. ALMS raced on the new one and it's crap, track has definitely lost some teeth thanks to repaving. Regular sim gamer who is never going to drive on the real one would never want to drive virtually on this one. I'm just curious how they are going about this.

The already existing layout: http://www.timlinerud.com/raci ... _Rock_Track_Changes-1.pdf

ps. I have not read this thread since page 30 or something so I don't know if this has been discussed already.

They will not update it before the work on Lime Rock has ended. As far as I know there is still missing a new building and other stuff. So sometime next year it will be updated..

Quote from evilpimp :I just got firefox 3 so there's no addons. I dissabled the security things and all but still nothing. It says there's 2 updates. 1 that's 0 Mb and one that's 22 mb. :S I'm scared that the one that says 0 is actually supposed to have more then that.

0 Patcher Software and Data v2008.07.23.02 downloaded
22 System Software and Data v2008.07.23.02 downloaded

That's what it says when I click on the update required button. Is there a way to manually install updates which were downloaded?

I have the same problem.

After one day in the Solstice I bought the Skip Barber to try it. Liked it very much from lap one and 5 days after, I bought a 1 year subscription to iRacing..

It`s a month since I touched LFS - for the first time in five and a half years...

LFS is still a very good game and I`ll come cack to it later when there are new contents... Ehhh and Gentlemen`s Cup 2008 will still be finished...next race is 30. august..

Quote from Mazz4200 :
If i remember correctly that Danish rider (name escapes me) had already tested positive and was already under investigation before the start of the Tour, so why the hell was he allowed to race ?

That Danish idiot was Michael Rasmussen. But he wasn`t tested positiv, he had just forgot to tell where he had been up to the Tour De France, its the so called "where abouts" he lied about. He said he was in Mexico without a telephone and so on, but a lot of people had seen him in Italy on a two wheeled ironhorse. His family in Mexico ( his wifes family) told everybody that he had been there..but he had been in Italy! So the doping control couldn`t find him.. He later told that he lied about it because he had family troubles with his wife.. Im sure he had been sitting with e needle in his arm somewhere in Italy..

Standings after removal of two worst results
richard dk
S2 licensed
Here are the results from R7 on SO City Chicane Route.

28 drivers started in the race, 26 finished it..

As Lasse wrote, GC 2008 is now taking a summer break. We are back at the end of august with R8.

I have also attached the overall standings after R7, but the rules are that we should remove our two worst results in the end of GC. Note that the first two races was not point races.
