Would like to be able to bolt on a TH2Go at some point .

On reading the Matrox specs ,to get the max resolution out of the TH2G0 you need to use a nVidia set-up?

If so how does this look ?

Quote from cbr929 :I already have a TH2go digital with 3 x 19" 4:3 monitors with 3840 X 1024 total resolution and i am considering to change them with 3 x 22 widescreens. Anyone already tried that with LFS? Can LFS support 5040 x 1050 resolution?

If I read this correctly then http://www.matrox.com/graphics ... tibility/gxm/resolutions/ you can run the high res if you have NVIDIA GeForce 8 Series, 9 Series, 200 Series /NVIDIA Quadro FX 370 / 570 / 1700 / 3700 / 4600 / 4700 X2 / 5600 and NOT ATI ??

From Asus site" When installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows® 32-bit operation system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total installed memory of less than 3GB is recommended."

Dont do much photo or video editing ,really only for playing LFS ,work Excel,music,mail and browsing etc.

With dual core at 3ghz, must be better for single threaded app's than quad at 2.4 ?

By the time LFS goes multi threaded I'll be needing a new pc

Plenty room for overclocking on dual compared to quad ?


Got three identical lcd's waiting to get hooked up .Shall try SoftTH first ,but might go down the TH2go route .
Will nVidia card give a higher resolution with TH2go than ATI ?

Thanks for your help so far guys

Well done people , 14 of us in the top 100
This was my time at trying anything like this , great fun
Made watching F1 much more exciting .
Next year should be a bit easier now I know what's happening (and don't miss first race !!)

Would love to continue on with something similar ,but want to watch racin on TV(preferably live )

P.S. Where's my cap

Quote from scipy :FXR is most used because it's the easiest to drive and 90 % of the drivers on CTRA (even ones with platinum+ licenses) aren't all that skilled.

Therefore should the FXR ,being the easiest to drive and consistently faster car ,not have a power disadvantage?

Makes for much better racing when there is a good spread of different cars in the same class.
Now , as you say ,90% of drivers take the easiest, fastest choice.

So why is the easy option so fast
Easiest car to drive ,should be slower .( in most peoples hands)

Is there any easy way to compare GT2 times for the CTRA tracks?
It seems the FXR is the most frequently used car on the track .
Does it dominate the lap records as well?

PS also having issues connecting to raceauthority.com .Very very slow , if it loads up at all

Quote from Gnomie : Any thoughts? What I'm mostly worried about is that it would of course induce more stress on the pedal mechanism. Especially since I'm using the Nixim mod... has anyone tried using the Nixim mod in an upside-down arrangement like the original poster?

I have the Nixim mod installed for last 6 months with no problems with pedal , but the rubber mod is being cut into by the inside X of the red spring cover.

Your extension would add more leverage ,Shrubba tried this






Worth contacting him maybe?


Quote from [UKR] Race King :It looks kinda exposed(to dust,hair etc) you know all the wires and stuff.Is there any way to protect them?

Regards to dust:. In the standard pedal setup , they sit on the floor and there are large gaps all around the pedals for stuff to come of your socks and land on the pots.
I think they are probably better inverted ,that way the crud is falling away from the pots rather than onto them inside the case.
But a very simple shroud could cover them up using any thin sheet material.

www.lfsworld.net , open the hotlaps section / hotlap charts, select the hotlap chart of your liking, select two racers for comparison (click the C's next to a racer's flag) and finally click the Instant Hotlap Analyser button that appears to the right (under the quick compare). A new window will open with the Flash analyser.

I have had the Nixim brake mod for a while now and like the feel too.
But ,the end of the rubber block is being cut in to by the inside of the red shroud.
Spoke to Nixim ,who also had the same problem ,but said it wouldn't get any worse ....and no replacement offered.
