Why not get afew people to organise a weekly event where at the start of the week, the main people upload a setup for the public and have a time attack on the track/car given. Yes it wouldnt work 100% because people can change the setup, but, im sure all you LFS drivers are pretty keen on being the fastest genuinely.

Me and my brother tend to do that all the time, we are currently using a setting as if its wet and slippery in the BF1 around SOlong.

Winner of the week could get something small? Maybe a mini/tiny trophy in their signature so they could display it.

If not like that, the winner can post a setup where people try to get the fastest lap time the next week. Might help with having something new and different to do.

A 24hour server? maybe? Where people can enter and exit whenever they want and the laptimes stay at the top..?

Just a thought, would be fun. People already post setups here and there and people try them out.

Going the the GP in Melbourne

I guess this year is a lucky year, going to watch a GP race for the first time. Ive only mainly been to A1GP, V8 Supercars and just aussie events, but Im not 100% sure on specific details at a GP race.

Just wondering if people could fill me in on some details.

You can get Grandstand tickets or General Admission. General is alot cheaper and i can choose pretty much where i want to sit, but what i was thinking, if im in General and want to go to afew points on the track during the race for example, whats the point when walking the track would take the length of the race? Then i was thinking two pass grandstand seats so ive got a good spot in two locations around the track, but can only stick to one a day.

Just curious if im allowed to go through the general admission points when ive got grandstand tickets, or do i have to stay put in the grandstands?

And to anyone IN Melbourne that is going or knows about it, is there much transport near the track, ill have a hotel near the track but are there much trains or busses?

I smoke a pack of 25 or more a day. I smoked winfield/marlboro reds (16mg) for 2 years straight everyday more then a pack and for the last year ive been smoking 20-22mg camels or lucky strikes and white ox which is 32mg. I chain smoke alot too, normally 3-4 in a go or if im abit stressed out, 7-10 or more. When i get upset ill end up chain smoking a whole pack.

Ill tell ya, chain smoking white ox even just 3 or 4 will knock you out with a migrain.

Last two weeks ive really cut down though, im having almost/under a pack a day. Really proud of myself there.

The facts are pretty discusting when you think about it. 25 smokes minimum a day = 9125 ciggarettes a year. 146,000mg of tar a year from winfield/marlboro reds in my system. Messed up ay?

@ Electric eye. bunch of retards?

couldnt agree more mate.

I just hit 18 years old and got my licence when i was 17. Lost my licence for 3 months, 2 months in. So ive had my licence for 9 months. Was speeding 90kph in a 50 kph zone. Stupid ay? Gets more stupid. Got my licence back, calmed down abit on the road, but not for long. Was going 235kph in a BMW 320i, which was redline in 5th gear and 210kph in a Subaru liberty RX. Not once or twice, all the time when i had the chance. Got caught one day. Ive now lost my licence for over a year and have to go to court to see where im going to end up in life. Ive done alot of street racing through alot of national parks where the roads are all bends and hills which are pretty extreme. Never lost against anyone. Almost lost my life alot of times though.

So im here, not to 'toot my horn' or showoff. Am i proud? I was proud at the time until i looked at the big picture at what i was doing. Risking other peoples lives, and my own on the road. I leave this post in embarrasment about what i did on the road, i wont even go into detail of the things i would do on the roads.

Ill tell anyone who is on the road speeding. I know speeding may be out of just enjoyment and not trying to hurt anyone, but it's just not worth it. Its retarded. Its stupid. Its beyond stupid. I may now get locked up and do some time because of the Australian laws these days for what? Abit of enjoyment and rush for speed/racing on the streets? I regret every bit of it and i wish i could say to myself back then not to do it, but it takes something to learn your lesson. I still even today get lectured non stop about how stupid i am, and people reading this, ill probably get told even more how much of a retard i am. But if you dont learn to back off and slow down now, you will end up learning when you see a mate on life support in hospital, have your mrs leave you or see yourself possibly going to jail.

I got a CRG KT1 recently thinking ill be able to race this year. Because i have no licence,i cant get to the tracks, so i cant race on the track, and having a passion to race, im sure many of you have, it f*cking sucks not to be able to race for a very long time, because of stupidity.

Quote from Becky Rose :It's your body, not theirs.

And you would say that to an employer?

I have two tats, one on the back of my sholder blade and wrapped around my right arm before the elbow so its all covered up. When im older, say 30-40 i plan on getting a big design from my neck, to my left elbow, to front of my chest to the back, all on the left side.

Ill post my tattoos when i find my camera.

I downloaded this game yesterday and cant get it working. When im choosing a session and hit race either nothing at all comes up, or it says "d3dx9_38.dll" file is missing or something around that. I downloaded the file and put it in the windows/system folder and still nothing worked. Could anyone help me on this?

cheers!

IMO, i think the VW is finished, or close to it. Why they haven't released it i reckon is because of the LFS physics. I think the devs want/need to fix the damage physics and few other parts before releasing it, so the VW can properly be "advertised" if that makes sense.

I remember when GT3 was released they interviewed the owner of the series and he said he wanted damage in GT3 but back then, not all the car companies were happy with their cars being damaged and driven, which could be bad way to advertise their cars.

Maybe its the same now, VW could have said to LFS, fix a few things and you have the license to release it, we aren't happy with our VW flipping into the sky from a nudge to a wall.

At the same time, maybe not. Maybe the VW isn't finished.

My bet, Christmas patch will be an update with the interiors, physics etc.

Next year early/mid '09 they will finish off s2 with the rest of the features that needs to be done, with the VW.

I see nothing wrong at all with this thread. She wants to look like a slut, then she should understand what happens. And looking at her, you think her life is going to be ruined from a bunch of fellahs from a sim forum..? Because im sure she comes on here to look.

The interiors look too modern for the cars we have now, if they really are 10-15 years old.

Just looking at the new features, very interested in getting CS4.

Quote :2D conversion to 3D

Wrap 2D images around common 3D geometric shapes, such as cylinders and spheres, with easy-to-use presets. Even convert gradient maps to 3D objects.

Does that mean basically you could get a LFS car skin and render it on a LFS car?

Quote from BlueFlame :You're seriously not telling me, Massa is a better driving then Hamilton.... That's bullshit, have you not seen the stats? Hamilton has done something like 30races and has a win percent of 25%, Massa's win percentage is like 3% or something. He's shit, face it. You can peddle all the excuses you want, but nothing can change the fact that Hamilton is a better driver, and he'll win another championship for sure. You can't change what has happened, so why try and change it in others perspectives? I was neutral through the whole race, but happened to just support Hamilton as a reaction. I think it's just jealousy that Hamilton is someone you dislike, and as a result his fans are in the glory and people like you, are not. Ok, you're not as a bad as the rest of these Hammihaters Mustafur, but you're getting there. Just let it go, the fact Massa is in a Ferrari is probobly why he didn't win the championship. Therefore, he never will. Kimi is faster than him, that's a fact. Sure, I don't know wtf Kimi is doing, as his consistancy is worse than Sutil's (but at least he STAYED in one place) but Kimi is faster than Massa, Kimi won the last title. Does this say anything to you? Massa will not get another shot at the title, it's over for him. Seriously. There are so many penalties Massa should have faced, the Fuji crash just shows how shit Massa really is. If someone did that to you in an LFS-league, I doubt you show them any respect. One thing Hamilton fans are not. Hypo-critical.

Edit : I also get the impression people are bitter towards Hamilton because he joined F1 in the fastest car. What I don't understand is why. He has worked hard to get into McLaren, people don't seem to realise that. He was good, that's why McLaren invested in him. That's why he has won their first world title in what, almost 10 years? (9 to be exact) Quit with the jealousy, sh-eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

You seem so sure on your word massa will never win a title and Lewis will in the future.

I hate to be having a go at you, but you spoke first about looking at stats. Forget stats, and theres Senna to prove that. Theres alot more to prove its on the track that counts, and clearly, Lewis has proved that too.

And its weird seeing you calling Massa shit. If hes shit, id really love to know what that makes you?

Quote from mrodgers :You're in Oz, you don't need a car, you need a Toyota HiLux! A 1984 model with solid axle front end, 22R motor, TruTrac locker in the front and ARB air locker in the rear. Stick a Marlin Crawler dual transfer case in it with 4.70 gears and 4.88 gears in the diffs. A 4 inch suspension lift with Rancho RS5000 shocks and 33 inch mud tires.

Ah, well, you probably live in the city, huh? I guess not all of Oz is the outback....

ROFL good one mate!

I remember not long a go i posted a thread about looking for a car.

Now the time has come to buy a car.. say by next week or next 2 weeks. Ive narrowed down alot, my budget has come down alot and ive noticed i am a picky b*tch! I just thought id come here again just to get some ideas of cars. I dont know what car would be best for my budget and limits etc. If people could throw afew cars at me, id appreciate it .

Limits:

Im a "P Plater" so i cant drive:

-Turbocharged cars
-Supercharged
-v8 +

Budget:

$15,000 AUD
$18,000 USD <---very shocked
7,900 EURO
6,300 GBP

Interests:

Something all-round. Something with decent handling, decent speed, decent acceleration, decent performance. Not the best, clearly because my licence stage, but the best to find for the budget without turbos etc. Ive looked at some Subaru RX, Celica, and afew others, but just need some opinions.
