The fact is, demo users cant post S2 content, correct? Yes that's silly, but that's how it is around here!

http://www.raceauthority.com/stats/?licence=BRAVUS

His licence, and aswell i have seen afew others.

Notice is stats.

Tony has competed in 5 races and driven 8,430 laps on the CTRA X-System.
That means he has done 1686 laps a race.. ?????

Finishes: 1
That means he has only finished one of the races.

CTRA Licence: 55,910 Points
That means with one finish, 55,910 points were received in that race.

How does this work?

Im not a fan of him, as you may realize in my posts earlier, but who cares what he does with his money. That's up to him.

Quote from Intrepid :lol oh dear Tristan. That post says more about your insecurities, and own issues than it ever does about Hamilton. Thanks for that made my day.

Sorry for the double post everyone.

But Intrepid, im not having a go at you, im not making an argument, im just curious about your own thoughts about Lewis. Anything you reply, ill accept, so dont think im waiting for you to reply so i can fight back.

I just really want to know why you like him so much, and fight for him with your keyboard over the forums. What makes you think hes great or good or whatever you think he is?

Give me your opinions about Lewis. Thanks.

I dont hate him, he is one of the best in F1 today. I just dont like all this Senna-esque, best driver, prodigy (ive even heard from comments from exdrivers or commentators) bullshit that goes around him. Hes got that perfect talent, but not that vibe in him for me to say, i remember him, the great lewis. More like, the overdone, spoiled lewis.

Senna, Villenerve, Clark will make ol' Hammy look like Ide in the Aguri.

I know LFS feels like its dead, but i know there is a huge series of packages going to be released, IMO, another track or two + another car or two before the final release of S2. Then S3 will start to have ranges of cars.

We all know in the end, there will be Le Mans cars, more GT cars, at least 1 rally car, at least an oval car and a few others. The devs have tested cars and have said they have, including karts.

Thats what i think, keep tight, stay steady. I'm not making no judgments or car suggestions until S2 final is released.

F1 ride.

I get alot more enjoyment, satisfaction, happyness from a passion or feeling, especially getting the chance to feel what its like in an F1 car, rather than a material, or money if i was to sell the wheel.

The ride, il never forget. It will stay in me til i die and it will be something i can always look back on, share the story, explain the feelings, remember the excitement etc.

The wheel il forget eventually. It will be displayed somewhere in the house with no true meaning where i will look at it not too often. Id eventually sell it for alot of money and in the end, i wont remember the money and the money will never stay with me when im dead.

Even though money is always something big in life, to enjoy, to live, to raise a family etc, but in the end...

...Memories are greater then money.

Another few questions about the points system.

Does the points change depending on the joystick input. Either joystick/wheel, mouse or kb?
Having manual clutch (not auto clutch) change points?
New lap record set

S3 licensed
I was driving alone in the XRG at Blackwood just getting used to properly driving using heal/toe etc and my fastest was i think a 36.6 and it said i set the lap record. I look at the times and my username is there + the XFG which was a 33.xx.

Ive seen much faster then a 36.

Just thought id report this here. Is it an error/bug? Or have you restarted the times?

Attachment...attached.

Attachment didnt work...

Quote from teaz-R :For some reason I can read between the lines here..

I don't like you, that's no secret. I may be straightforward and to the point whenever I have something to say. But rude and unfriendly?
Haven't heard that from anyone else. Ever.

Well I'm sure you can read, as he said "some". And I'll give him a +1 for the quote.

Theres some rude high ranked licenced drivers, at the same time.. MANY rude low ranked licenced drivers.. If you cant accept that, you need alot more than reading and a 1st place ranking in the CTRA licences.

@yeager, agreed completely to you too.

Im personally sick of the BNJ server, and thats why i was pro BNJ2 for red licence and up, in the other thread.

Its annoying when you get crashed, and thanks to Gekkibi, alot of people cop it after crashing and ramming you. Ive been taken out stupidly from just a "bump" or a hit, and fustrating, but i hold it, because its allowed completely to bump and certain hits.

Then you think good of yourself that your a clean BNJ racer because you understand the theory of the BNJ server, and take that theory. You bump someone, they spin and they tell you off for not understanding the theroy of the BNJ server. lol!

The best servers, racers, personalities on LFS, CTRA!

At the same time, the worst. (IMO)

@Rose, shame that happened. Heh, can you still say.. "Thats racing!"?

Adding weight or restrictions to the car, does that give you more points, or does it make no difference?

And are there any leagues or championships to race in to get some extra points?

Frustration in the servers
aoun
S3 licensed
I hop on a server, have a fun time.. most of the time.

Sometimes i get taken out, woppdido, if it was on purpose, ill get fustrated and get over it, if the fella is a smartass or acting silly, i may report, or just forget about him and pass him later on and leave him for dead. Sometimes i even take out afew people on accident, no problem.

But the frustrating part, and the meaning of this thread.

If someone takes out someone, or specifically, me, the person will tend to cop, "You stupid noob, thats bullsh*t!", "Learn to drive".. and you think to yourself, hang on.. isnt that some form of harassment and insult. and you think, report the bloke, get him banned.. and you refrain, and just simply try to talk to the guy and sort it out. You then later watch the replay and find out you didnt hit him, someone else did.

Earlier today, (YES IM SICK) i was on Race 1 and lights went green, i was at the back of the grid and slowed down alot, out of no where i sneeze, and the wheel goes everywhere, i t-bone a driver and he gets taken out. I feel bad, no excuses, i took him out, my fault 100%. I apologize and let him through and he smiles meaning its all good, i explained my incident even though there was no need to as i was still at fault.

5sec later i cop a, "you bloddy noob, cant i get through t1 without having a noob from the 7th row take me out". Not knowing anything, i said look, sorry, i didnt know i hit you too.. And i realized to myself, this is my first race on this server since i connected, my first turn and mistake.. how am i a noob for making an error? Why do i deserve to cop bull crap from a better driver (if not), driver just because i made an error. Is Senna a noob? No!

I said those words roughly to him, and that i feel like reporting him as i felt offended and insulted. I told him im going to watch the replay, turns out, someone else took him out. After i said report, its as if he went from agro, to nice and sorry telling me he is in the wrong, which he is. I wasn't threatening him and i wouldn't report him, he seems like a regular and im not that kind of person unless it gets out of hand, i also understand why he overreacted and had a go at me. Im taken out by randoms all the time for no reason.

Still, thats just one example, i cop it alot and i have been threatened to be banned from people in the BNJ servers. I took one person out one time and coped a USE YOUR BRAKES YOU NOOB.. and apologized, he said "happens again, i'l report you." Once again, i was hit in the rear and went flying into the same guy. He went off his nut ready to report me. He said he will and hes going to watch the replay to make sure everything is for sure. He came back on saying "ok i wont ban you, because it was once."

I think there is way too much aggression on the servers these days, this ain't million dollar F1 if you crash it will cost. If there isn't noobs, theres people who name you one. I don't want to start reports, but it gets very frustrating, and i want to next time it happens.

Is this a form of harassment or insult? Or do i have to shut up and quit whining?

Thanks.

I feel his words are Mclarens words. Im not stupid, i know teams do tend to tell the driver what to say in an interview, buts its almost asif he has never said what he likes, its all fake to keep the media going. I guess thats ok, but hes not doing to well IMO.

I tested the frame rate before and after Y21 in South City in the BMW F1 car and before hand i had to take off alot of graphics or low to get it running at 30fps. After i downloaded Y21 i felt no improvement, FPS stayed at 30fps. I put all the graphic settings full or best, and it stayed at 30fps.

So, i dont know how it works, but its ok, but VERY confusing!

Quote from JamesF1 :Well they DQ'd Montoya a few years back for running it.

Yep, i was going to add that example in there. Montoya had a similar problem, but more to do with his team. In the end, he was driving and he made the mistake IN THE CAR, not the team.


Just like Lewis. He has to cop it on the chin and admit it, or he never will.

I agree with the penalty. I know there has been ridiculous incidents before, but i think the FIA is trying to make an example out of Lewis by making sure the drives look at the lights from now on as it can cause problems.

Does anyone have a link to a video of the Lewis - Kimi pitlane crash? And Massas pass(es)?

I missed out on the race and would really like to see them, youtube took them down due to F1 management.
