I have used Java for my time here at varsity and tried the likes of vb, but im a java boy!
Java is soon to be open source as i have heard.
And a great developing envioment for Java is Eclipse, the new version 3.2 was released just 2 weeks ago, got alot of new features! Very cool enviroment to use now!
Yeah even slicks last quite some time dependent on the cars, i raced the FOX around Kyoto National last weekend for race practice and i managed 50 laps on the R1 slicks.
Even with a few lockups and drifts the tyres still lasted quite a while.
But yes the road tyres can take a severe beating before they start to show signs of wear.
Yeah i had a league race this weekend at South City Sprint 2 Reverse with the UF1000. Now this fuel guzzling monster() uses 0.4 per lap, now i almost forgot to set my fuel before the race so did a quick calcualtion in my head....i ran out of fuel entering the last sector with a 20 second lead, finished 4th in the end getting pushed over by a fellow racer hearing my cry for help
Normally i always put 1 extra lap of fuel in just incase but really stuffed the it up this time.
Was good fun that combo, brilliant close racing and overtaking is so difficult and no room for error with no available pitting!
Speaking of names that are not gender specific, we had, note the "had", a female racer by the name of TerminalMotion in the South African who actualy joined team vMax. She is an incredibly fast racer, you could try punt her off the track if you could keep up with her
Pity that she left, personal reasons for it though.
Well i'v just finished racing in the server again and WOW some brilliant races. Server as i left was racing on Kyoto National Reverse with the LRF class. Times are trully amazing considering no one has raced there.
Pb's flying left right and center but the amount of enjoyment is trully the astonishing part.
I think if servers want to get used they should adopt this Odd Combo Club, seems to be working great!
I just did an enduro on westhill....only an hour race but was still brilliant fun!
I pitted just over half way and this cost me first, tyres and fuel against someone who pitted long and did a "1 second pit".
Hey you win some and you loose some.
Iv pitted right in the first few laps before and its worked brilliantly for me, only thing is dont make a mistake during the race that might require you to pit for damage...that will only destroy your race.
I agree. I havent actually had much time to race since the new patch came out due to varsity keeping me busy.
But i have had a go on a few of the tracks with the cars that have had there power/weight ratio's changed, I am aswell not the fastest racer...hope to get there one day , and yes some have become slower but the FXR has definently become more competitive!
The FXR is enjoyable to drive now and the sight of new pb's is always a good sign.
