I do not drive the GT2 FXR/XRR very often so I cant really compare it to the FZR(which I drive most often) on different track's but I do think the Restrictions need to be revised I think it would help raise the activity level on the Race3 server.


Then again I am not online when the servers are at their peak. So I cant say that the Race3 server is inactive..But it certainly is when I"m online.

@ researchers: DUH! Stupid people who play shooting game and like that sort of thing could have a more violent tendency. same sort of thing with racing games.

Fixed

I also hate those news reporters that go "the need for speed" when ever there is a fenderbender.

I hate that too

Quote from Gekkibi :

What if those who are one or more lap behind can't vote? Those who has chances to win points will try to finish the race.

I 100% agree I had an absolute awful time on B&J last night due to 1 certain mid race joiner..

Quote from danielMG :

Racing theory and simulators, in a way, have made me a worse driver.

Racing techniques don't belong in the road. My driving is very aggressive and nervous, braking late and using the accelerator early to exit turns and roundabouts. I shouldn't turn as fast and hard as I do and I use the road shoulder to smoothe my line in right hand corners.

To sum up, I make my passengers sick. Must be scary for them too.

Why do you do this though?

Racing Techniques belong on a RACE track.. Just becuase you know these "racing techniques" doesnt mean you have to use them It's all you Racing games are out window. This is just another pointless Multi-million dollar study telling us that people are stupid and cant differentiate between real life and a game.

Quote from Gekkibi :

5) Sometimes there are bunch of... Well, those who don't belong to CTRA on BnJ-server. I know BnJ isn't in top of SamH's list of to-do, but what if there would be another BnJ server for, say, red roof and above licensed users? That would make the races more clean. The problem would be that there aren't many dedicated BnJ-racers (Others than Jose. ).

I would love to see an upper level B&J server.. If it was more active B&J never has more than 4 people when I have time to race

Ehh I dont know if I want to wait for the PC release or buy a 360.. It sounds sick though

How are the physics? I can't imagine them being very good but I haven't played it yet

Yea I also had "use real names" set to off but I believe that is only for displaying the results after a race.

Quote from Jakg :

Have you set your name in MyCTRA?

I'm pretty sure I have. My online password is set So I imagine I'd set my name at the same time But I'll check to be sure

I have a question also about my lap record My name doesnt come up in the $track menu
It shows my Licence name (Ajrose) but not my full name?

Not a big deal just curious

Quote from LiveForBoobs :

Because if you put the throttle at 50% or more it won't downshift, which is a bit hard to control on the blips. So instead, try to brake and have the throttle at a constant 20% while you're breaking

I'll give this a try thanks

I always have problems downshifting with the fbm I'm not sure if it's me my wheel/pedals or what..

It just never wants to shift when I blip the throttle. I never blip now and it is definatley faster for me. I use manual clutch btw

I mostly drive the Xrg with the liveforspeed.se skin or the FZR with the colors tweaked to orange with dark grey wheels or the FXR with a Dr.pepper skin that I changed to light blue/purple. If I ever drive anything else it's whatever the normal skin is.

Quote from Racer X NZ :

What's also interesting is WHY building 7 came down.

Building 7 is what gets me... There was no reason for it to come down.. And the US govt. Has the power without a doubt to cover something this big up.. The US is going to destroy itself.

Quote from [GR]Evolution :

Well, in my opinion, MRTs would be fun. Looking forward to seeing them in action in CTRA.

Agreed I'd love to see a karting like track added with the mrt

Quote from Kamrock :

Generally I don't, if I can think of something that needs changing, I normally create a new setup and change it in that.

Me too I should probably get a notebook or something I have ~12 GT2 Fzr ky3 setups.. I Really hope there is a notes section In setups for the next update.

Xrr, I find it much easier to go fast In the fzr.

Distance driven: 15041 miles
Fuel burnt: 7373 litres
Laps: 5661 (3105 are from ctra)
Podium average: 22.4%

Great Idea +1 I'd love to see the setup screen more organized

I think it would be great to have a notes section in the setup screen I'm always tweaking setups and I think it would be great to be able to keep track of what I've changed. Without using an external program.

Aj

Quote from Dark Elite :

This is what happens when someone else clicks the '-' sign next to your name in the End Race Screen starting list to remove you from the race before it has started.

That really sucks that people do that

Is this what happens when you click "Join race" then "ready" right away? Or does it just happen when you click "join race"?


btw Race1 tonight was great :P

I thought this was Improvement suggestions when I first posted sorry

I'm not sure if there is a tweak/tune for patch x

Demo users cant drive the xrt? Also patch x was already released I'm not sure what you are asking.

Quote from FlowLord :

One interesting detail i would really like to know about LFS phisics and simulation capabilities could be proved with this "tweak".
If a car, such as the XFG wich has no downforce assistance at all, reaches a certain speed for a certain period of time, should lift off because the airflow below the car is enough to beat its weight like it happens in THIS video.
I would like to try this myself, but since i'm a demo user, i can't.
Would some one give this a try and tell the results ?

Best regards.
Flow

There is no straight long enough to obtain these speeds also the traction is serverly limited so staying straight is also a problem.
