tell me who would those be? I only know of one relatively fast chase view driver, but I never got owned by him :P
using a typically arcade view in a sim must be enjoyable.
the competition is still going on, you have 9 more days to submit the winning design. 
Come on and show us some more ideas/designs

yea right, and because they also happen to run a setup field, huh?
was this a reply to my question? these two threads are the same, just in different sections of the forum. the link you posted has nothing to do with any logo competition.
what logo competition? whose logo was it?
what do you mean? what has the starting line to do with laptimes? the length of the track is still the same wherever the starting line is.
just for the record: the starting line has not changed since S1.
I don't get it why you show the laptimes, they are of no relevance as you weren't driving competetively (spelling?) enough to make a valid comparison between S1 and S2.
just for reference:
in S1 the best XRT laptimes were low 1:22's (maybe some scarce high 1:21's, but not HLVC), you can check the S2 laptimes at LFSworld.

show me one turn at aston that is similar to magny cours.
or did you mean spa?
lx6, just had a 12h race with some german guys at kyoto national on saturday. I enjoyed driving it right till the end

barely is a harsh word to describe the rb4-xrt relationship in that race, but due to the nature of the track (kerbs, many turns, short straights) the rb4 had a couple of tenths advantage over the xrt.
the big advantage of the rb4 in these short races is that it beats everything from a standing start.
it eats the fxo and xrt on any track that has laptimes of around 1:20 and only short straights.
of course blackwood with the longs straights will result in the xrt being the fastest. RB4 wasn't made any slower from patch W, so the laptimes are the same. the XRT was given +20 kgs, which made it probably 1-2 tenths slower in worst case. The FXO suffers the most, but is surely capable of doing 23's. I almost managed to do it myself, despite not having any practice there with this car.
was that updated before, or after ZT had a disconnection?
my point is, the rb4 is fast if driven on the limit, which means braking late, accelerating early. the rb4 is always driven more aggresively than the fxo or the xrt. it should overheat and eat the tyres, as it does currently.
what type of tracks do you use? RB4 is quicker on shorter, twistier tracks, XRT on longer tracks, where the top speed counts. that's how it should be.
edit: and the RB4 should eat the tyres as it is a 4WD.

i bought race via steam, I feel I wasted 45 dollars of hard earned money, since its release the price dropped to 10-15 bucks, which considering the game is not even 6 months old is really a shame.
I definitely won't buy anything ISI/simbin related until I gave it a good 3-4 months thought and tested the demo. the only problem is that simbins demo's aren'T a good representation of the final product. I wish all demos were like LFS's.
about the Lizard engine: I think it will just be a graphically improved ISI engine, the cars still won't feel like being on the road at all. but I would be very happy I were to be proved wrong.
however GTR2 still has no starforce protection, it has securom I believe. and I can burn DVD's fine ever since
people complained about starforce a lot as well, I had no trouble with it whatsoever.aren't the yellow lines showing the weight distribution and the other coloured lines showing the amount of grip the tyres have? why would they show the drive shaft forces?
that's exactly what is going to happen based on SCawen's recent comments about the upcoming X patch.
anyways, you shouldn't compare GT3 to LFS. it isn't fair and it has no point. they are also aimed at different audiences and strive for two different things.
LFS wants to please the sim fans and aims for realistic driving physics. GT aims for the masses and to provide the most content. If the latter appeals to you more, then you shouldn't waste your time on LFS.
crashing happens everywhere, save the replay and report it to the admins to help making the server a better place to drive.
You are not forced to drive the slowest cars at all, you can always drive the others. you either drive the slower cars with other people online, or you can go and practice offline.
S2 price is no way too high, and saying very little content is also wrong, it has plenty of content to keep us driving for more than two years now (or when was S2 released?). Also you get free updates until S3 is released. And you get that more than once in a year, what do you get for free after buying GT3? nothing I bet.
Clearly you don't get the LFS concept, nor the development process, so instead of posting rubbish, buy yourself S2 and see where the real action is. I think everyone will agree that you won't regret the purchase.
oh, sorry
well Tristan (as he is playing the role of the "expert") could have noticed how short my pitstop was and make things clear but basically this is the only criticism I can give you two regarding the actual commentary. the audio levels weren't ok at many times, but that's a technical thing and I can deal with it. so if I haven'T done so yet, I would like to say: good job! 
actually I didn't get any damage at all in that incident, luckily. I pitted at the first opportunity to avoid the SC phase, and any accidental damage I got on the way, by brushing a wall here and there. The earlier you pit, the less chance there is you got major damage which makes you lose a lot of seconds in the pit due to repair. After the pit I lost maybe 2 seconds to Hannu due to having to fight a little with those who haven'T pitted yet, but it wasn't that bad and I couldn'T have closed the gap down anymore as my tyres were overheating badly, so the SC phase was welcome to cool the tyres down.
funny, I checked your lfsw online stats and you have exactly 1 lap in a TBO car at south city classic. what makes you so confident that you could have mastered that chicane every single lap without errors, but fast enough to not fall back? I must admit I found especially 2 drivers weren't prepared well enough to be safe to race, I met one of them in the race as well, costing me my lead, and no there was no lag at my side, I was arriving as usual on the limit to the first left kink and John was just recovering from his incident and was still on the racing line, nothing I could have done to avoid him. the speed difference and the fact that it is a dark, nearly blind exit, didn't help either.
hitting the exit of the chicane wall once or twice during a 30 minute race isn't such a big issue, everyone makes mistakes.
I agree though that blaming the absence of blip is not an acceptable excuse for mistakes, especially with a fwd car.
with round 7 came regulation changes in the format of the qualifying, whereas before we had 3 minutes, which resulted in 3, max 4 flying laps. in this round we had 10 minutes, where you might have wanted to pit, now this was the point where people (noobs like me :P) forgot about the shift+s rule and when they were coasting back to pits to make some changes, they telepitted. also some of us have been playing LFS for 2-3-4 years now and the shift+s or esc and then select pit is a reflex, which is very hard to get rid of.
the original intention of this rule was to avoid cars telepitting in the broadcasts, now the qualifying is not shown on the broadcast, so you can easily forget about it. at least I did and my championship points are really sad about that
that's fine, but they are there and they can be a very good reference for you to decide where to start with a setup.
If you don't like it, change it for your liking. if you cannot change it for your liking, then learn to do it, or stop complaining and learn to drive it as it is.
some people seem to forget how unselfish and noble it is from some of these guys to share their wr setups, with which they have spent several minutes/hours/days developing. you could at least spend the same amount of time getting some basic info how to make a setup suitable for your own needs.
