Quote from SamH :

CHANGE - Infraction Ribbons added to MyCTRA. There are two kinds of ribbons. The first is as above. The 2nd type is FYEO, and also includes any warnings issued. In the MyCTRA version, each ribbon block is a hyperlink and links straight to the report lookup page for that report.

ignore - I'm too sleepy to thingk right at the moment :P nice work

Quote from The Moose :The first two laps were utter shite , i was trying to go flat out with no idea whatsoever of braking points etc....
I am at complete n00b level with that combo. Not driven it for at least 9 months, and hardly drove it at all then. Prob only done 20 laps of that in my life


I watched your laps. You don't use enough of the track.

Quote from niels1 :First let me make it straight : I cant give a rats ass of the name I am using. What makes me wonder tho why do the names on the first page you only see realistic names. But when you klik on server menu you`ll see a lot of jokeable names connected to the server.

Just a question nothing more.

Actually thats a little bit of a valid point....

Question - is it possible that for the server page you can instead list the CTRA licence name on there as a default with maybe the lfsusername or in game name in a bracket or possibly available by the deliberate changing of a setting.....


for instance

i would be down as

Justin Parker on the server screen with either (dru) or (CR|dru) in brackets after it.

Sure it would take up a bit more room, but also if the drivers don't have a name, then they would be listed as a unregistered user, therefore 'possibly' making them fill out all their details so they can show up on this server screen??



Just a thought, ignore it without offending me

Cheers,


Dru.

I think Redline racing specialise in those sorts of cars, but not sure you would be quick enough for them



How about post some more details about you and made you could find a team that 'sometimes' races the fox and take it from there

Good luck in your search



Edit - damn it Chano..... you got their first.... :P

Quote from PwrSlave :LoL, u have got to be kidding right?

So if i show up with my 3 years old name, PowerSlave, your just gonna "ask" me kindly to change it?

Bye bye then, was nice

This is not inserver names m8 - its the name that you have to register with CTRA to be displayed on the raceauthority website.

In game you can race with any name you like (obviously within reason )

I agree dustin.

I think that race 2 and race 3 servers SHOULD have the same points available, therefore then it's a straight forward choice whether people wanna have benig close races in the TBO's or the GTR's.

It would be a nice simple way of sorting it out .......... maybe

Quote from SamH :Just for Kev, it's now possible to raise a report from MyCTRA, from any server over the last 2 days (by date).

If he doesn't use it, I'll bring my dog over to savage him. She's done a pretty good job of my hand over the last couple of days.. my fault for play-fighting! Ouch!

If he DOES use it, I'll bring my dog over to lick him to death. This could be equally as bad.. her tongue is like a bottle brush, and your nose is the bottle!

great - Can you please remind me which race it was that you were afk on the start grid Sam and caused a huge pile up becuase your mutt had 'disconnected your pedals'.... i need to raise a report

Quote from thisnameistaken :I like you Dru. So I will go to bed considering myself the victor (well, not the Victor, but, y'know), and your girlified car a dark period in LFS history which you will be forever ashamed of.

lol.... I'm not ashamed at all Kev, at least whilst i'm awake, but it may explain those wierd nightmares I'm having about driving an LX6 around South City Chicane course, whilst trynig to put on mascarae on an using the drivers side wing mirror

I'm going to have to agree with LB here that the points balancing needs to be sorted out a bit (and probalby to the deteriment to myself as well for sure...

To me it does seem that FAR too many points are handed out on the Race 3 server when compared to the Race 2 server and that lends the problem.

On an average race as long as the field is over 4 for the GT2's then the winner will get 60-100 points depending upon whether they are gold or platinum and how quick they are (also assuming they have a clean race with no yellows)

Trouble is on Race 2, you can races much trickier cars (imo) than a balanced GT2 and get way less points as a silver/gold driver....

It means people are jumping from Race 1 straight to race 3 which means good points for race 3 and a nice full server, but i just think that the points in Race 3 are a little too excessive compared to the race 2 and 1.

Als on othat point, I'm not sure there should be puishment for the higher licences in terms of points, and maybe on the highest servers (ie race 2 and) gold/platinum and titanium should all get the same points) or maybe just plat and titantium., otherwise all you are going to end up doing is gettnig a concatena (<-bad spelling of a musical instrument) effect where everyone at the top in the points ranking are on a similar amount

Just my 2 cents.

Quote from thisnameistaken :Opinion of drunk bloke who doesn't like the stupid UF Baby R: It's wank.

A front-wheel-drive car with no power and tonnes of grip? Where's the fun? It's the ultimate girls car and you're all girls and you should all go out and buy make up and hair serum and Coleuoure Expeurteee and starfish-flavour essential deep-cleansing navel masque with banana and horsechestnut.

1st Opinion of a sober bloke talking to a drunk bloke..... go to bed

It's not designed as a car thats hard to drive, its designed as a car that good fun to race and rewarding when you do do well in it.

2nd Opinion of sober bloke to drunk bloke..... you seem to know an awful lot about femine beauty products

Quote from Dennis93 :i think it was more the less just a one man show, no body showed big interest. i think it has to end this way.

Thats a real shame Dennis, getting a team off the ground is a hard thing to do... thats with a group of people trying to help, but just one guy, man that would be super hard...

to control the field you can use your pit limiter on 80kph and then if you what to pull away from the fiel you take it off

Quote from J@tko :The SC will either be the FZ5 or the RB4. Let JO53PHS pick. Whichever is easier to skin.

o you think F1 chose a Mercedes Safety car because it was easy to paint??


LOL


Think it maybe because it was able to be a suitable safety car interms of performance...
