Yeah, the League Of The Americas was originally intended for the Western Hemisphere to take advantage of similar time zones. Open for more than a year now, we are looking for a larger user base for better racing.


Nolan, this is definitely the best video you've done so far! Very nice camera work!

Good luck to you guys!

Nile River Pharaohs!! winnar!!!

Quote from Scawen :

Controllers :

Moved recalibrate axes and added new lock / unlock buttons
FIX : Mouse axes could not be used without game controller
FIX : Multiple controllers did not work in several cases
FIX : Recalibrate axes button set all axes to "X axis"

Thank God for the controller fixes....

/me goes to plug the Saitek Gamer KB w/ Command Pad back in.

Quote from franky500 :

hmm.. i have the same keyboard... looks like i'll have to dig out an old spare..... dissapointing

Quote from jasonmatthews :

Found the problem. I have a saitek gaming pro keyboard, had to unplug and plug in a normal keyboard

BAH! Same keyboard.....no play for me.

There will be a sign-up available on Monday, December 10th on the LOTA site. I will reply here again when it is ready. It will allow 50 registrants, and only the top 32 after qualifying will be able to race. Ideally, we'd like to see an even mix of GTRs and FOXs.

Just a quick note about the CDDT....

Trav is our latest member.

Another member, Stnwolf, joined and participated in the LOTA StreetStock Cup. This was his first league race ever and he finished 21st out of 28 starters! Good job Stnwolf!

Gabkicks, I'm sorry you had to go through that. If you have a replay, please post it up on the CoRe forums or send me a link if you can upload it somewhere and I'll take a look.

That video is just some bits here and there of CoRe's racing activity. Nolan has been working on a more proper "team promo" video, complete with our team members' names and stats, and some cool shots of nothing but our cars going around.

Quote from banshee56 :

Oh, and by the way BigTime, you're officially kicked out of CoRe for making fun videos. What the hell were you thinking? [/COLOR]

Now that I've set the standard for inclusion (or exclusion), I guess I need to kick Viruz (one of our other very good racers) out too.....http://youtube.com/watch?v=cHbtljGdd2I

Hmmmm....what was this thread about again? Oh yeah...a video...made for the FUN OF IT. Sad that it's turned out this way.

/me downloads LFSTweak so he can join in on the madness that all "bad racers" indulge in.

Oh, and by the way BigTime, you're officially kicked out of CoRe for making fun videos. What the hell were you thinking? I guess all those good league results (ahem, like bringing the car home for a MOE GT2 win) don't really make you a good racer, since you know how to screw around with LFSTweak.

(wait....maybe your not kicked out.....yeah...you can stay)

Quote from Rooble :

Oh as for your question asking 'what level is the team at if they're doing this' - Put simply they're on a completely different level to you, and any of their drivers would make you look like an old lady on a track.

Thank you, Rooble. Nice to see some common sense. And thank you to squad_e, Nathan_French_14, mcintyrej, and daveja.

Quote from squidhead :

if a CoRe member has nothing better to do but to make a drag car drift the oval, it makes me wonder, what level is the team at if THAT is their idea of training

Quote from squidhead :

I once thought CoRe are a racing team filled with good racers...
this video proves otherwise

Quote from Riders Motion :

+1 what's going on with the good racers turning into retards?

Wow...simply...wow. I am amazed by those that even make comments like "all the good racers turning into retards" and "what level is the team at if they're doing this". What are you proving by making comments like that about a movie that was made purely for fun?

BigTime is a fantastic racer. He knows how to get as much speed out of a setup that it will allow. He's also a talented drifter, which can be seen by the car control he does display in that video. Besides, why are you slamming him for having fun?

If some of you guys think CoRe is now on a lower level since BigTime is making videos like this....I suggest you get your team together, make a post in the CoRe Racing Forums challenging us to a race. We're not the fastest team on the planet and we know that and never claimed to be. But, I tell you what: we're not afraid to race any one. Any team, any car, any track, any time. Simply put...bring it.

BigTime, I am loving your videos. Keep it up!

Nope....I stand by my original statement.

Congratulations 500Servers! CoRe and the League Of The Americas have used 500Servers for a few days short of a year now, and the server and service have been wonderful! I couldn't have asked for a better host!

And what other LFS server host put these kinds of offers and rewards out there? NONE, I tell you!

Great servers + great people = the world's best LFS server provider!

Quote from N I K I :

German song on American team video, lool

+1 for pure LFS shots with no edit
Great video 9/10 (cos of wrong music )

My family originates from Germany, back in the 1800's, so there you go!

BigTime is fast becoming our official video pimp!

A couple options...

1) download directly to your \data\dds folder and extract there

2) download to a folder of your choice, and extract to the \data\dds folder

Well, I managed to get it working consistently. It seems there was an issue (don't ask, I don't know specifically, but I narrowed it down) to the "Remember Me" function. I removed (well....just disabled) that part of the code, and it all works now.

w00t! Happy B-Day Scawen!

That's true, but it's also misleading. I do a ton of practicing for league races on a public server in 60 minute qual mode. It's also misleading when there are certain people who drive around the oval with only one or two opponents and 3 lap races.

Well, it worked after I reinstalled it, and worked after I logged out last night, but this morning...it's back to nothing. Perhaps I'll just have to wait for the PHP5 version.

Nice idea though. While it was working, it was pretty user friendly. Looking forward to the next iteration and a PHP5 version.
