Quote from Grant Reeve :

After hearing about the mustang from multiple sources I did some research in version control and it turns out some experimental changes to the tires done right after the release of Season 1 were forgotten about and are still on the car. I've reverted out the changes and we're going to put the car back to the same tires as usual in the next maintenance window.

It's very frustrating when things slip through the cracks like this. I apologize for you guys having to deal with extra greasy tires for a week or so!

Essentially they ****ed up the tyres and now apparently feels better, yet they're going back to the original ones in an update soon.

He also mentions that Eric was fiddling with the tyres - wonder why Mr. Bailey was doing that

Quote from nesrulz :

Hm...

LFS (and Airio) uses hundreds of nodes on each track to determine where a driver is, and thus work out whether someone is going the wrong way or not. Since AS1X does not have a path or nodes to define the track, LFS cannot work out which way someone is going. Luckily EQ Worry is creating custom ones for Airio, so a lot of the problems (cutting, blue flags, wrong way, and hopefully yellow flags) should be solved in a new version of Airio.

ZOMG then I assume you'll be the one helping to make the .pth files for each configuration?

They can't be that elitist if they let you in.

I was watching the Porche cup the other day and was wondering how cool it would be to have in iRacing i know there are some fixed road car stuff. But they just dont seem like your typical one car series.

Apparently Porsche have exclusive licensing deals with other games.

Blame google spreadsheets' lack of colours for that

Quote from Mikjen :

Is ther a DEMO version of Iracing,. looks fun, but want to try it first before parting with £££

Some people have 3 months for $10 codes, ends 15th May.

Quote from NSX_FReeDoM :

I bought the V8 supercars the other day and I must say it's a very tricky car to drive. It's very tail-happy, and the torque comes in one big lump after 5000rpm. But it's very good fun if you get it right.

The throttle is like a drift switch, but good fun - like an FO8

Quote from anttt69 :

Btw does anyone have a renewal code for existing members going spare?

For me, it only works for the account it was sent to, you can try it though.

No shit :rolleyes: Obviously the GTR cars in LFS would need to be changed for that to happen...

Quote from xfirestorm :

Or, I'd really like to see some real GT1 cars first(specification wise). I'm thinking about LeMans GT1 "restrictions", like 1.200kg with 560bhp or 1.250kg with 600bhp. So then we could have the current GTR class as the GT2 class. They are certainly closer to GT2 class than to GT1 class.

Use the z28 .exe attached here http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=70879 and you have 600bhp GT0 cars

But to the OP, I asked what restrictions - GT2 or GT9? We would first have to agree on restrictions before we standardise a class...

Phil, do keep up son. A16 is the short Aston one, basically A12 minus AS1. A17 is Touring Car Short, A14 but without the AS7 hairpin, like you say. But if you want to go ahead and do A18 that's fine by me - it's not the best track but meh.

Incidentally, the OP has been updated with a newer zip file

Yeah he went from the normal spreadsheet to a published one. https://spreadsheets.google.co ... mp;gid=10&output=html is one I made, a useful overview of the Season 2 road calendar showing which tracks are used more often.

Well, you're the Asian guy as you're talking out of your arse

Turn off your screensaver? :rolleyes:

Quote from funRacer[83] :

I hope at least in class A are enough people racing the F1.

https://spreadsheets0.google.c ... RSHc&hl=de&gid=13 has driver stats from all of the series

it was to big for uploading here

Then .rar or .zip it for here

Well I let my subscription run out in week 13, tried the code that was sent to my old account and it didn't work :|

Still got a code one for a new account if anyone wants it...

So basically FE25_Classic from the open track layouts pack with a different penultimate corner?

OT/LoL?/ cars feel so much more "planted" in 2.0

Are you a 2.0 beta tester or something?

Quote from Sueycide_FD :

Basically what i want to find out is that if your driving along merely into turn 1, and someone rams you, spins you or in general screws you over, would YOU lose points or a rating thing? Sure it's a neat system, but it just doesn't seem all too smart considering that's how maybe 75% of crashes happen when a driver collides or forces a mistake on another.

Just want to find this out before i remotely give it a look when the update comes. I've raged too many times on insim servers where I've gotten wrecked and my rating goes down.

It's different to LFS' systems which use yellow flags. You get incident points which you collect in official sessions - 1x for off-track, 2x for loss of control, 4x for car contact - which are used to determine a corners per incident number over your last 2600 corners IIRC. Each licence level has a CPI number (rookie will be more lenient than Class A) and your SR will go up/down according to where you are in relation to that. As you can see, sure, your SR may go down a little bit (biggest drop I've had was about 0.30 or something for 20+ inc in a race) but if you keep driving safely you can gain back lost SR easily.

So what restrictions?

So let me get this right, it's ok for one person to copy a real life skin but not for someone else to do it? :rolleyes:

Quote from funRacer[83] :

No, I lose my position and that is fine because that is what also happens in reality, but in iRacing they add to the lost position a punishment trough SR.. That would be like punishing Hamilton after he got crashed by Vettel with a +10 for the next race..

The above quote supports the following, and disproves your own point!

iRacing: lose position + lose SR
real life: lose position + lose money repairing car

You mention that you "only" got +0.1 - you need to read more about the SR system, and you'd know it's only on your last 2600 corners, so obviously you didn't improve that much only your corners per incident rate to warrant more of an SR gain...

The best way to save the environment is to kill yourself.

Quote from funRacer[83] :

that is not an excuse for the broken sr..

It's not broken, it's working as designed. Creating a system to detect fault would take forever and have as many, if not more, complaints than the current system. I mean, I'd say in most incidents people could do more to avoid crashing into those who've spun etc, so making a system to absolve people behind who crash into spun cars of blame wouldn't be a good idea. It's not the best currently but it's decent enough, putting avoiding crashes as the responsibility of both parties.

Week 13 only has 1 official series in both road and oval, for the entire userbase to drive in. Of course, that is going to put a lot of people together who wouldn't normally race in the same series - namely complete rookies and class A drivers. I actually boosted my road iRating/SR last week 13, by qualifying well, and staying out of the incidents.

In general though you need to drive smart in iRacing, and assume everyone else is an idiot - plus if you're constantly getting into crashes then perhaps you need to look at your own driving

Week 13. That is all.
