I agree with you in almost every point.
Except I never had stuttering video but that depends of course on the bandwith and DSL line people are using.
(Mine is 13MB down and 1MB up
)btw "bandwidth per hour. In one hour of viewing, approximately 320Mb data will be downloaded and 105Mb uploaded" (from the Joost FAQ)
It's fun for free but with the limited content that is there atm I wouldn't pay for it

(I hope mine will still hold for another 9 years)I think I read somewhere about a guy who had the same problem. He then bought some springs at a local hardware store (not pc hardware, I mean a real hardware store
) and they cropped the springs there till they were suitable.I really liked that spinning car at south city.
Nice vid

Happy :birthday: Birthday ZWR
but the site is still up and running:Just use the normal website link ( www.triple7racing.net ) then
(it's the first news on the right ;-) )
What he said.
#2
clean simple and enough room for sponsor logos
Divisions:
If we get more than 32 sign ups, there will be two divisions like last season. Otherwise there will be only one division.
TBH to start in a 5 Round based league where you miss 3 out of 5 Races doesn't make any sense for me. You should let someone else take that place.

@kalle
Great I'm automatically qualified
But too bad
that I'm moving soon to a new home and will loose my internet connection for some time, therefore I can't race this season.Give my place to someone else.
May the next season be as much fun for every1 as the last one was.
Fordman I think we have to throw Tristan now out of T7R
Just read my upper post again (what about clicking on that LINK there)
It sounds like you have a so called "acoustic trauma (AT)"
especially when you have things like you wrote
and this can have serious consequences
You should visit the doctor ASAP (what means immediately!!) because the longer you wait to get medication the bigger is the chance that you have to live with it forever.
I'm not joking.

I think the problem is that you "didn't know enough" about some things of LFS. Which is normal if you didn't race as long as some of the old guys who already started with the first demo of LFS years ago. But the longer you use LFS the more you'll find out and the happier it'll make you
Some small tips/hints/remarks to some points that maybe also frustrate you but they are already there or simple to explain:
Well this depends on what you (want to) do. If you want a quick race just for fun then it's fine but you can also join leagues where you have to do qualifying sessions or can practise etc. (and where it makes sense).
LFS already provides everything the server admin needs/want. You can disable mid-race joining etc. (but most server admins don't do it. Reason i.e.: New joining drivers often came onto a server and then start practise the track or check how much fuel the car needs for a lap, check there setup etc. behind the field for the rest of the ongoing race whithout making any trouble.
People who just enter a server and destroy a race by joining an ongoing race and driving into the middle of the racing pack are usually very new to LFS, have no common sense and often get banned from servers if they do it more then once.
You should first take a look at the server you join, in the server list, it's all there. Click for example on the "?" in the server list before you join a server. Or check the little dots under the car abbreviations etc.
The truth is when you learn the long/short track names (i.e AS4R=Aston Historic reverse etc.) it will also help you much
When you are on the server press F12 key there you can also see how many laps the race has, if you have to pit or not etc.
Use the F9, F10, F11, F12 keys. You see your tires, damage, fuel burn/lap etc there and you can also change things there during the race before you enter the pits.
That's normal in a lot of racing games. The first time I tested for example GTR2, I touched the curb a bit hard and my car was catapulted straight into the air for half a minute.
If you don't want to have it in LFS, just race without hitting any barriers
(no flights and I bet you also get faster laptimes with it 
) tbh in the earlier versions of LFS you had much more things like this and things like little contact between 2 cars and big accidents/spinning around but it's getting better from one update to another. Hmm if you say so. For me it's more like 95% of the mods are crap and from time to time you got something useful - like in 95% of any moddable game.
There have been many discussions about this on RSC forums and here. A lot (I don't know if the most) of us longer LFS users think, that exactly this will happen: An endless wave of dumb mods will come up, then every server runs his own car and track and whatever mods and you won't be able to quickly jump into the car for a ride, no you first have to search/find the right mod, install it, (damn not this version, it's outdated, DL another 245MB etc.). Like I experienced in a lot of other racing games over the last years.
And then a lot of people would complain about LFS crashes etc. but it's maybe crashing because the mod was not good etc.
The other but most important thing is LFS is still unfinished. It just doesn't make sense to open it for modding right now. But when S3 it will be finished then we maybe get the abbility to mod LFS. The devs didn't say they'll never release things/tools for it, didn't they ;-)
Enough for today. If you search a bit here in the forum and follow some discussions (there are still some usefull threads next to the (for me boring) "what colour do you like" stuff then you'll understand a lot more about LFS, find out more cool features of the game etc. Just spend some time with reading. It's worth it.
I hope this was also a bit helpfull for you.

Thx for that. Working great.
I also had big problems (never had that before) with buffering every 10 to 12 secs.
Game: Beyond Divinity

You should read something about it to understand the difference of Primary or Extended Partition and Logical Drives etc.
It's explained in an easy understandable way here:

If you got it you can answer your question yourself really easily

funny stuff
especially when you put it into the bath, toilet or pool of a friend
(without the stuff that turns it back into water)
You only forgot to close it
[edit (Al): No I didn't!
]Sad to hear that. 3 years is really young.
I let my cat never go alone to the outside and so he is now 16 years old.
We also have stupid laws here.
A huntsman in some places in Germany can officially shoot every cat he sees, if the cat is more then 200 meters away from the next house
but he can only shoot dogs if the dog is poaching.
illepallbtw
Unofficial counting (a hunter don't have to tell anyone if he shot a cat). says ~400.000 cats will be shot here every year by hunters.
