Quote from Mustangman759 :Well Mr.Cooper what is your opinion anyways?

My opinion is that you have to be in it to win it and the 52 most certainly showed great pace and character to win the championship.

Quote from Töki (HUN) :Someone from LLM was complaining about you on IRC for continuously bashing them on the stream.

Well it doesn't surprise me that I received complaints from them but I never bashed them at any point. Infact I was genuinely respectful of their victory in the GT2 champion also, but you can't please everyone.

Was getting used to looking at the timing alongside watching the race, which was the reason for the awkward silences at some points. Though I did very much enjoy working with Steve, love to do it again.

Quote from IsaacPrice :

If this post seems retarded/sissy then blame my lack of sleep. I'm sure I will man up soon

There's no shame in showing emotions. We're all human.

Tomek was a special character. I'm sure now my post a few months ago about him being a legend in simracing will ring true now although not in the way that I ever wanted. He will be missed by myself and by everyone who knew how talented he really was.

It was sad not to see his name on track and it was sad not to see .nv there either but I too, agree that moving on is the best thing to do in terms of simracing.

So for all of you here that I don't see on track again, I wish you the best of luck in whatever you choose to do from here. Whether it's LFS, iRacing, rFactor1/2 or whether [like me] you're waiting out on AC and will setup shop there.

Whatever peoples opinions, the direction and speed of the wind in the test race yesterday was 100% un-enjoyable and in some way I just want to avoid that, for the benefit of the race as a whole. Only after that test race, alot more people than just I were voicing concerns.

Like I said before. Can people not racing tomorrow refrain from voting.
Round 5 - Should there be wind?
BlueFlame
S3 licensed
My thoughts about this are based on the fact that everyone I've spoken too does not enjoy driving LFS with wind on [in general] and because the competition isn't really here in LFS anymore, I don't see the point in over-stressing drivers over 24hours of racing in what could well be LFS' last ever proper endurance event. I think everyone of us has earned the right to a fully enjoyable final showdown and believe for that to happen there should be no wind.


Yes or no to wind. Please vote.


EDIT : please lets keep voting to those actually involved in the race.

Quote from troy :That sadly is a common problem with the G25 wheels, the internal optical sensor can get loose over time. It's a pretty straight forward fix if you are out of warranty and feel comfortable enough to open it. (If you still got warranty chances are there you get a brand new wheel if you contact logi support)

I did the same as this guy here back when I had my G25 (just used super glue and some tape instead ), which completely fixed the issue.

I can vouch that this indeed does fix the issue.

Quote from The Moose :Thanks Sinbad



There is no indication that this was suicide. In fact there is a deadly batch of fentanyl-laced heroin doing the rounds on the east coast that appeared very recently and has killed load of users. There is a suspicion that this might be what caught him out.

Until we have the facts it's best to stop all this suicide speculation as its completely unfounded.

The guy was clean for 23 years. He had a problem with prescription drugs last year and eventually went back on heroin recently. He checked himself into rehab within a week of starting the heroin again apparently. Not the actions of someone who want to kill themselves.

If he was clean, and started again after 23 years, I'd say that those WERE the actions of someone wanting to end it. Suicidal tendencies aren't that consistent. How many people have ended their lives intentionally for their actions surrounding those events to be completely normal?

After all, to have gotten back into Heroin usage after such a long time would require a massive vulnerability at the time. So he would have had to have been in a pretty bad way mentally to start again. I mean the steps to acquire the drugs would filter out someone who had even the slightest will NOT to start again.

Though don't get me wrong, I'm not disputing the facts that are there.




EDIT : Conspiracy : Fentanyl infected herion manufacturered by US govt to kill off druggies! << DAILY MAIL HEADLINE RIGHT THERE

So am I because it's quite obvious he'll be shit, but I need to watch the races to get the confirmation of this to maintain my erection.

It's too true that suicide is the easiest way out of any problem. Though you only understand truly this feeling, the closer you get to doing it.



But cmon guys really, nobody would give a shit if he was some hobo who OD'd but the fact he's been on peoples TV and cinema screens apparently makes a big difference.

If the person in question wanted to die why would anyone feel sorry for THEM? Sure feel sorry for loved ones and family, but if that individual WANTED to go, why would anyone pity them?

The extent of mental torment is such that the only way to make the torment stop is to put a permanent end to it and if it's the case in this situation then solace can be taken in knowing the person is suffering no longer.


The guy was either a raging addict, in which case death is almost an inevitability, or he wanted to die, in which case we should just let it be.

Only in rare cases does somebody become a drug addict without their consent. Addiction is something you allow, even if its for just a short enough time to make an impulsive decision. It's up to THAT person to make the change back, and if they're not prepared to do it then most likely death will occur.

Quote from The Moose :Ignorant prick.

Sure there's more behind drug addiction than what others see on the surface but I don't think Töki deserves your insults for it. If anything Töki shows a more deeper understanding than you. It was most likely an induced suicide in which case obviously the person in question WANTED to leave this world.


In regards to the person in question. I know of the guy but I haven't seen enough of his work to be able to consider him a great actor. I only saw him in some comedy stuff.


In regards to IMOL nobody can know what truly happened, all we know is he was driving a Fiat 500 [probably the most unsafe car in the world] and he hit a Volvo [probably one of the safest cars in the world]. If you push paper into a rock, it will crush, no matter what speed you push it. So lets save the judgements for another topic please..

Unless you're a half-arsed rFactor mod maker. Then almost any car is in the game with absolutely no comparable reality at all.
