Quote from DeKo :Seems very strange that this is being developed in the UK but will only be sold in the US.

Huh?, really?

I'd still take it with a pinch of salt, GPS proof or GTFO

Considering the RS125 is geared to do 106mph at the redline, not taking into account wind resistance, mechanical loses etc etc, then I'd say that 110mph is a "clock speed", and said clock is probably over-reading by about 20%

Quote from S14 DRIFT :My RS125 did 110mph though.

Downhill with the wind behind you?

Quote from morpha :I know you don't care, just putting it out there.

Its like those complete nob-jockeys who drive round with their front fog lights on because they think it makes them look cool.

They know they shouldn't, they know they dazzle other drivers in non foggy conditions, but they just don't give a flying f**k

I left it, too much aggro, plus the problems Matrixi mentioned above.

Decent bulbs make a huge difference for not alot of money

Quote from tristancliffe :Seconded.

If you want better headlights on your car, buy a car with better headlights. If the headlight design could be improved for £500 then I reckon the manufacturer would have done it - or at least put it as a dealer option.

It is a dealer option, on most cars, however its amazingly overpriced.

Pushed back release date doesn't guarantee bug free now does it

Newer cars with CANBUS systems have circuitry built in that stops you fitting retro-fit HID's.

I looked into it, but it appears to cause a problem with my Mazda, so I just got 4 Osram nightbreaker bulbs for £10 instead!.

I could never bring myself to watch a Boring-Spec race, but for a cash cow, it has its uses.

Quote from Boris Lozac :In right circumstances it's giving me that 'serious' feeling that i have with LFS..

This is my point, its appears that the tyre model is quite simplistic, in the right combinations, its quite good, but it should be "good" across the board, the fact that certain cars and certain tyres scream "arcade" ,means, to me, that all is not as it should be, also the single seater physics are terrible in comparison to iR or even LFS.

Comfort tyres are alot of fun, and challenging too, but, and I've driven IRL on some terrible tyres, they have far less grip than they should.

The suspension model seems to give some cars issues with oversteer to, although understeer is quite well done across the board.

Don't take umbridge with the comments, like I said, its a very fun, and challenging piece of software, in the right circumstances, but there are much more realistic and complex tyre and suspension models around (the lack of tyre pressure is almost unforgivable IMO)

Fun and challenging?, yes, realistic?, no, not even with a steering wheel.

The special event Nascar on the ring?, I thought that was one of the easiest events so far, beat the last car by about 30secs.
I found the RX7 one a lot tougher.

Christ on a bike............

People are bitching and moaning that there is no progress reports, a progress report gets posted and then gets lambasted because it doesn't contain what people want / expect it to.

And people wonder why the devs don't post progress reports.

Bottomline here guys, LFS has been this way since the year dot, and it will be for ever more, so..............

Quote from Hyperactive :I would have probably been done and dusted with gt5 without these online events. Great addition to the game imho.

I agree, certainly keeps the game fresh.
