Damn, can't wait for it . Yeah it's fwd, yeah it's not even faster than TBO but like my grandma used to say: "EVERY CAR IS FUN... except those which land on the roof in the corner, or burst into flames without any reason".

Edit. Omg... definitly wrong thread .

As in the topic. I've started watching Best Motoring series(not International ones), but it's rather difficult to know what they're talking about :/. Getting subs on the net is impossible. I've downloaded the newest one 2009-05, as usual great tests but the language is still a huge barrier.

Btw. Even started to learn japanese on some sites(learning for a week , it's not THAT difficult :razz.
http://japanese.about.com/ this seems quiet good?

Maybe not old, but some games in 90's were really exceptional. Most of the games today are made strictly for money, not from passion(except LFS ).

A proposition for new kind of league?

Hi guys, i've got an idea to create new league which would use power/weight restrictions but instead fixed intake and weight, we could use power to weight ratio as a restriction(without fuel and driver). Example: So for a race with XRT with power to weight ratio of 140bhp/ton people could use either weight/power or weight&power restrictions to match their driving styles. Tried two AI XFG with 100bhp/ton using weight or intake restrictions and they've achieved similar times! I don't have the capability to create such a league, it's just an idea which someone might use in the future. What do You think?

I think it is strictly related . Nice on skitpad , really could feel what's goin on .

Edit. I'm starting to like it more and more O.o... feeling bumps etc is great, but turning the wheel is to heavy .

Very interesting addon ^^. The FFB is much sharper now, but personaly i like standard FFB a little bit more(more dull but also easier to drive ).

Edit. WOW... tried FZ5 on Aston. All weight transitions are easly felt O.o. Mate, great job... but the ffb is rather too strong for me even on 15%.

Power of the handbrake depends on the overall power of the brakes. If the power of the brakes is higher, then the power of the handbrake is higher .

Around 1000kg, four seater, around 160-200bhp, rwd(of course ) with lsd, a/c and power steering, rear tires not wider that 215mm and CHEAP ! It's not a dream car maybe, but a car that I would like to have in the future.

Btw. AND THE MOST IMPORTANT: It should be fun to drive .

And You should all remember that LFS is their income , very comfortable income so they won't leave it so easly . At least i wouldn't leave such a great opportunity to be very rich .

P.S.:"But if a developer mentions anything about something, they're immediately pressured to deliver it." Yeap, for example: rally pack and interiors .

I'm also very eager to know the news, but most of all I want them to work in a way they like, not in the way I like . Because if they like the way the work, they will work on it longer .

http://www.chudy2001.kemot.net/lfs/video/Race-Pro.mpg <--and here's link to download that. And what is he saying?
00:20 - Girl - Nowadays this is the only simulator like this in Poland. I won't test it alone, Adam Kornacki will help me with this.
00:30 - So finally i can feel like at work.
00:37 - For the first time i'm driving with sequential gearbox, i'm trying somehow to deal with this, although i don't know the track so i will look at the map. It's shaking me all over the place in this.
00:48 - I have to admit that You can definitly see/feel stuff You don't feel on the typical sim on PC, all kinds of bumps and irregularities are easly felt. Up and down. Oh, and i've spun for the second time in this same place, so that means i'm starting to learn the track.
01:00 - and those were the tires.
01:06 - And now we are going to experience real forces/overloads. One lap from standing start. Ok, first gear with sequential gearbox. I'm almost like a pro :P. Here You go, immediately You feel declination/deviation to the back. Second, third, fourth, every gear change, damn almost like in my race car. If I remember correctly I have been shaken like that about 6 years ago in rallycross. Such forces were really present then. In real racing such forces propably weren't apparent, by that i mean bumps etc, but thanks to that we can truly feel the road and it's height.
1:47 - so braking, and You face immediatly moves towards the wheel. Every deceleration,and the weight moves towards the front and we have better steerability.
2:00 - so here i've overdone on one of (... didn't find the word, it's this blue/white thing by the track .). Ok, now i have long straight and that means a little bit of relax. It unleashes animal instincts in me (O.o).
2:15 - it's broken... so You can break a car in this also? I didn't know that! I have red engine light(or something like that! ^^), so that means "the end" for me...
2:24 - If i had such a thing in my house, i would gladly prepare myself in winter for the summer racing season. Trust me that this simulator gives a lot! You can really train Yourself, and in certain precentage it can recreate what really happens in real racing car. I will drive a little more now .


Btw. It's rather amateur translation , so sorry .

Yesterday i tried a little car park racing with my Ka (with huge->) 50hp. I wasn't turning much, but inside wheel easly spinned(but not that i've lost all the power ) at 2nd gear around 50kmh if i'm correct(full throttle of course :razz. I've got even a movie from that so i'll post some description pictures :razzlater ;P). Remember also that XFG has only 56.9% of weight at the front, while most FWD cars has around 60%.

Edit. LFS has beautifull suspension simulation ... especially when it is soft. You can really "feel" and see the weight of the car .
