If you mean the steering wheel that's drawn ingame in cockpit,then I have bad news for you - that's fixed to the specific car! If the car has 720° for example,you can only reduce it setup - steering tab,where you can reduce front wheels lock,which also reduces steering wheel's lock to lock rotation amount. Alternativelly you can increase (or decrease) the lock of your wheel in wheel's driver software to match it.

Race statistics / RTFR .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated later this week)


The entry level NGT car seemed to be a real crowdpleaser,probably due the combination with the relativelly easy track - the 2023 season 1 final race was also the most attended one of the year with 43 drivers qualifying for the race. Last time same number of drivers attended was april last year,when BF1 race at Blackwood also attracted 43 drivers,coincidentally also back then 1 spot of the 40 car grid was left free. The car felt like a classic LFS's NGT car,being just 1 second off XFR's pace,so it produced pretty much a pack racing as you can see in the broadcast.

After 5 races absence the returnee Fatal qualified himself on 7th place,advanced himself through the field early on and used the chance to slip in lead on lap 8. After the pass for lead he had the luck to have his closest oponents busy fighting and holding up each other,so the finn could lead the last 22 laps of the 29 laps race on the way to victory lane to score his 4th RTFR race win,clocking also the fastest lap of the race,which is also his 4th. Fatal increased his top5 count to 19 in the 42 finished races. Starting 2nd and finishing 2nd on paper looks like a boring race,but the lithuanian with changing names had a lot of positions switching action,most of it was even shown on broadcast - despite leading 5 laps,he had to settle for 2nd place finish,on the final lap repeating fastest lap of the race. That was his 7th fastest lap of the race and 18th top5 finish. Fnatic was the one who joined the positions switching during tha race,on lap 3 leading a lap in RTFR for the first time ever,but at the end he repeated his best finishing result of RTFR,set 2 weeks ago - 3rd,which is his 3rd top5 finish,however the 4th position in qualifying was 3 positions better than his previous best. Doni also joined the lead chasing pack,but could not make a lot of progress through it,finishing 4th - that's a repeat of his only other top5 finish of this season,14th top5 finish in total. The reigning Crashmas and 300km of Westhill champion Twincam closed the top5,earning his 2nd top5 finish in RTFR,best result of this season for him.

VOD at Youtube:


Even if this race did not provide any intrigue in battle for championship as it was effectivelly decided,it provided plenty of pretty much normal racing action with a lot of position shuffles,including for lead - 4 race leaders was the highest number outside oval since 284th RTFR. Since the season with scored standings is over now,there will be 3 RTFR races pretty much on oldschool style - no championships,no prizes,no broadcast and no info about next combo. All you can know is that we will keep the tyre type schedule as next race will be one of the road legal cars,which and where will be planned out just on the weekend before it. However it's well known what will happen next week - the next RTFR XL race will be held on Fern Bay's longest standard configuration and run with the good old XRT. However this weekend Race Green Events will offer the chance to show off the skills of all 2-wheeled racing fans - the 2nd edition of Race Green Westhill Tourist Trophy will be run on the sunday,make sure you don't miss out the chance!

Well,I have some feedback from making a skin for it - the windshield visor should also be mapped into skin file,currently it can be only white or colored with bodywork color in garage (which colors over the skin too). Also the sideskirt on skin mapping is much bigger than it actually is - the lower part is simply covered by grey stuff. And low priority suggestion - maybe add also rear wing end plates to skin.

To be added back to car draw,these entries have to quote own entry post and add "Reactivate" to it.

Quote from adirany :

Personally I think that releasing updates one by one is the right thing to do, especially when the team is so reduced.

And what do you think devs are doing now? Sitting in Bahamas and drinking cocktails out of golden cups?
Scawen has stated multiple times that their doing stuff in their own pace without pressure of release dates. This is how it is,accept it or leave. Sounds cruel but it is how it is.

Also I have to remind that we accepted terms and conditions when purchasing licence - we're buying access to this software as is without any guarantees of new additional features. Therefor all updates are technically a bonus!

Don't get me wrong - I'm deffinitelly not supporting stagnation,I would love to have the new lighting system,new tyre physics,the 1000Hz physics,the 2 new previewed environments,updated South City and all other environments,but the thing is - we cannot accelerate progress,and deffinitelly not with such discussions. The 0.7D[25] is the best version of LFS there has ever been,with way more possibilities that the one at the date of signup of any of us. Enjoy it,take the best out of it. I'm surely doing that as much as my time allows,are you?

After the race attention of organisation was drawn by a youtube video which supposed to show a great pass during this race - however the video was showing a blatant divebomb where pass was made hitting another car. If a driver cannot complete pass on inside of a turn without a contact where other driver gives more than car's width room for the passing car,it is not a valid pass! This is not full contact racing - if minor contacts will be tolerated if happened without intention and consequences,drivers should do best to avoid contacts and deffinitelly should not initiate those!

PENALTIES:
｢DD｣ tBug - receives 10 seconds added to finish time for pit exit line violation.
｢DD｣ tBug - receives 30 seconds added to finish time for multiple avoidable contacts and track limits violations (including pit entry). Future infractions will lead to disqualification or even race ban.

The fifth round of the new league went into the short history of this league with end of the domination of one specific car. Before this race no URC1 finished a race behind any other different car,this time all 4 URCs finished 5th or lower,including both previous winners using this car. This shows that the car has been slowed down to be at least a fast car and not a superiour one,we will keep monitoring car's performance in next rounds to decide if more additional weight will be needed. Regarding previous winners - RD2 went into history as the 1st driver to get drawn same car for 3 rounds. But one streak still has not been ended - still all 5 RandomCar 2023 rounds were won by mid-engined rear wheel drive car.

Besides the busy real world racing schedule,the GT3 driver Dennis found time to join also this league and went to victory with 1st try. The dane got drawn the Renault Turbo 5 inspired version of LFS's own XF chassis and qualified with it on outside of front row,making the pass for race lead already in 1st lap of the race - after leading all 14 laps he finished 1st with over 6 seconds gap over competition,which is 2nd highest margin of victory so far,being also the only driver to break 2min17s laptime mark in the race. J.Holmes also had his RandomCar debut this tuesday and also got drawn the XFT5. The briton was fastest in qualifying,but could not keep the race lead for long,still finished in 2nd position uncontested. Fast got drawn the LFS's own RB4 for the 2nd time,however could not finish as high as last time he got same car - he had to settle for 3rd place finish,still one position improvement between start and finish.

The current standings leader got drawn the not so fast Coquette and finished just 9th to lose bunch of points to his rival - Fast now trails by just 4 points in standings from his countryman. RD2 jumped into 3rd position in standings,now 12 points behind leader,closelly followed by previous 3rd position owner.

With 2 top5 finishers,Born to Race scored most team points in this round,cutting a decent chunk off S1dus' lead - the gap between these teams is 14 points. RGA scored 3rd most points in the round and extended their lead over rest of the teams,but lost ground to both leaders. Nations championship however starts to turn onesided - Lithuania scored 19 points more than closest rivals Finland and is now 69 points ahead. Bulgaria stepped into 3rd position and has practically no chances to advance higher. Despite not winning,the advantage of URC1 in manufacturers table has increased by 10 points and the Ultimate Road Car has a huge 40 points lead over the new 2nd place car XF Turbo 5. FXO was pushed down to 3rd position,just 1 point behind 2nd place.

With 6 draws for this round,URC1 has tied Imprezzive for most draws - 19 each. Talot was drawn 3 times for this round,however no driver attended. BZ30 Roadster was the 2nd car to get 6 draws for this round,however just half of them attended,one of them did not start. Interestingly after half of the season,4 of 5 LFS default cars have been drawn just 8 times,which is lowest value between cars that entered the season right from the beginning.

6th round will be held on a custom layout at the newest environment of LFS - Layout Square. This will be the 1st ever Race Green Events hosted event in this envoronment. The winner has submitted the layout,which will be refined to fit RGE's standards,also it will be properly tested to decide if it will be 9 or 10 laps race at next round - the submitted track requires over 3 minutes to complete a lap. Next week the RTFR server will be returned to it's original duties - the final round of the 1st of 2 scored seasons will come to an end,however the champion is practically decided. On the weekend full info about combo will be posted,expect a pretty close sprint racing for that! And for the 2-wheeled vehicle fans there are also good news - RGE will host the 2nd edition of it's Tourist Trophy challenge on sunday of next week! Info in our main forum section!

Exactly as the post above says - you have to lift throttle before the upshift. The reason is that FBM has sequential gearbox without ignition cut,so when you want to shift up during acceleration,the gears are locked up with each other due load and shift between gears cannot be done - you have to unload them by simply lifting throttle. Or pressing clutch,but that's not very effective and will heat the clutch up. I hope insight in the process will help more to understand.

PENALTIES:

Race Green Autorsports 18 - receives 150 seconds added to finish time for not completing the mandatory pitstop requirement.

- - - - - - - - - -

Right at the same weekend as the inspiration event took place in the famous Nürburgring,the 4th edition of our annual endurance race took place in the Westschleife circuit. The event received 18 signups,however 2 of the entries never arrived. From 16 entries that took part in qualifying,2 did not take their earned place on the grid,leaving 14 entries to decide results between themselves. 9 different cars were represented on the grid,most popular was the Piranmoto Firefly 200 with 3 cars on the grid,there were also 3 pairs of cars and 5 cars were unique to others. Interestingly 3 most powerful and heaviest cars entered were not represented on grid,leaving the restricted home grown FZ5 being the most powerful,while one entry used the 125 horsepower version of another LFS's original car - UF1.

The tradition of having 3 different cars on podium was kept alive also this year,but despite receiving extra 2% intake restriction the winner for the 2nd year in row was running the RB4 on his way to the victory lane. But at least the driver was different - the irishman Twincam qualified 4th for the race and slowly progressed through the field to take over the race lead with 3 laps to go,celebrating the win of this event with his 1st ever try. With 17 seconds gap over 2nd place finishers,Twincam actually set the 2nd biggest margin of victory,however more than 4 minutes less than last years record margin.

The Yes motorsports duo of V.Lakūnas and Jimmy finished 2nd despite leading 19 laps. Their 1st driver V.Lakūnas set the fastest lap in qualifying with their 2-door coupe version of LFS's own XFG,which is boosted up to TBO class performance,beating competition by 7 seconds on one lap,but a chain is as strong as their weakest link - Jimmy inherited a drive-through penalty for speeding from his teammate and during his 10 laps was not able to defend the gap which was raised up to over 1 minute and 20 seconds. Both drivers of the 2nd placed team were also debutants in this annual race. For the 1st time in event's history there was a car on podium which had absolutelly no connection with LFS's default cars - the most popular car of this year's edition made also on the podium,driven by Race Green Autosports' Nosle,who finished 3rd despite 1 pitstop more than closest competition. He was also the best from returning runners - Nosle retired after 8 laps in the inaugural edition of the event,being classified 18th,but had a huge raise in performance last year,where he was highest with non-standard LFS cars by finishing 4th with Acosta Starlin.

None of the 1st edition top5 returned to the event this year,however 2 drivers with a win under their belts were running also this year. Winner of 2021 edition (the only 400km race) Ferat Motors in person of Michal returned also for the 4th event,scoring his worst finishing position - 11th. But one of the 2 last year's winners Gábor returned with an own entry,teaming up with a countryman Mandula,but this year did not bring any big success as they finished 4th.

The track this year was deffinitelly easier than last year,still offering a bit more difficulty than on 1st edition. The average speed of the best lap raised to 104km/h,which is 5km/h faster than the maze of the last year's edition. The attendance was kinda expected to drop compared to last year as the custom cars hype is starting to settle down,but still the event offered plenty of competition,not allowing to relax anyone during the 3 hours of the race.

Race Green Events thanks all drivers for participation and guys behind the scenes for their input and efforts. As always everyone is welcome to share their experience from the event,either in form of text,pictures or videos! Also (even if that rarely happens) - we're awaiting winner's speach!

Even if I'm suggesting this as an event organizer to be able to check cars for their aerodynamics better,it would be also a valuable information for drivers to know about car's extra grip. Some cars have added bodywork or undertray negative lift,but that currently can be seen as a non-exact value in forces view on track or you have to load .veh file in the editor. Additionally also visible drag values would allow to determine if a car for some reason has very unrealistic values to weed out badly made mods out of consideration of using them for events.
I hope this is an "easy" change and can be done in nearest future,as there should be no compatibility issues.

* PENALTIES :
PP - receives 10 seconds penalty added to his finish time for pit exit line violation.

- - - - - - - - - -

There are only 18 main hotlap rank combos where drivers decide between themselves who is the best hotlapper,one of them was run this tuesday in RTFR - the one with longest laptime and deffinitelly the one hardest to make right. LX6 alone is a handfull car to control,but visit at Fern Bay's longest config made it even worse,still 27 racers tackled the challenge in qualifying,25 of them were ready to start the 12 laps race.

Late in qualifying with his last attempt Mantas secured himself a front row start for the race,missing pole position by 0.04s. That was still 1 position better than his previous best result in qualifying,but with this his best RTFR event did not stop - after chasing hard for 4 laps,the lithuanian found a way past polesitter and took over the lead for the first time in this event series to lead last 8 laps. With this Mantas became the 78th driver to score a race win in RTFR,first since november of last year. The win was 3 positions better finishing result than previous best and 7th top5 finish. R.Kardol was the fastest in qualifying to score his 14th pole position,but race pace was not good enough to convert it into another win - the 2nd place finish is his 76th top5 finish. Fnatic qualified just 7th,but during the race found a lot of pace improvement to climb up to 3rd,which is 2 positions better than his only other top5 finish,during the race he also set the fastest lap of the race - that's his first such achievement in RTFR. Current rating and standings leader Gábor finished just 4th,losing some valuable points to his main rival,but his 46th top5 finish actually should be enough to not worry about losing lead in the final round of 2023 season 1. Top5 was closed by Arska,who scored his 19th top5 finish,1st this year.

VOD at Youtube:


With estimated (before proper calculations) 38 points gap over competition Gábor most likely does not even need to arive at 12th race of the 2023 season 1 as scoring such amount of points requires scoring all possible points in event with record attendance. Let's see if the mod car which is equipped with slicks at a sprint track will attract such numbers - more information about next combo can be heard when watching the broadcast recording. But that's something happening in 2 weeks,next week it's time to activate randomized,who will draw cars for drivers out of pool of 23 relativelly well balanced TBO class cars - yes,it's time for our newest series RandomCar,5th round of the inaugural season will be held in Aston North configuration. in 3 weeks however we will return to Fern Bay Black reversed,where XRT will be run in the next RTFR XL round.

This time there are 4 changes in cars list,again let's start in alphabetical order:

The winner of the voting on our Discord channel resulted in win of a car,which is based on a Japanese classic from 90ies - 8JFZ Supercelestral. It will increase the already biggest engine/drivetrain configuration FR and with just over 1.5 tons weigth it will be the 5th heaviest cars in the field. The car will start with initial balancing of 11% air restrictor.


The Acosta Starlin was noticed of being a bit underpowered,best seen in latest race in faster course,that's why from now on it's restrictor is reduced by 1% to have 20%+180kg balancing.


Also Fraud Wheeler E2 showed lack of power in the faster racecourse,so gets it's restrictor reduced by 1% to have a 13% total restriction.


URC1 keeps winning races and once again organisation feels it's right to add another set of ballast - the ultimate road car's total balancing is 50%+180kg and has a chance to reach max possible restriction if it overperforms on upcoming round.

UFR hasn't been very popular in RTFR XL - it has been selected twice and attendance put it as 3rd least popular car in the chart,weirdly in the shorter RTFR version it's the 5th most attended LFS default car. This week it had it's first race in Rockingham and it turned out to set new attendance record for the car,however with 12 drivers classified as finished,it's pretty much close to average of previous 2 races. The combination of this car and this track was known to have some rolling problems and several drivers were caught out without even touching the badly famous sausage curbs,causing the race being quite actionless in the late 1/3 of the distance,however last few laps raised the intensity as few drivers misjudged the lifetime of their tyres.

Since winner of previous 3 races reached his limits of combo selection,so it was given to 2nd place finisher of previous race - he used that to take a full set of achievements,as the lithuanian with changing name celebrated his 4th RTFR XL race win,scoring also his 7th pole position,5th fastest lap of the race and 10th top5 finish. During the pitstops shuffle R.Kardol took over race lead for 1/3 of the race,but never had the chance to outpace actual leader and finished 2nd to score his 38th RTFR XL top5 finish,extending his lead in this chart and also taking lead in yearly standings. Doni got cought with minor violation,earning a penalty that took away the honor of finishing in lead lap,still kept the 3rd position in results - that's his best ever finishing position in RTFR XL,improving the previous best by one position,4th top5 finish in total for him. Ohnifus went for an early pitstop strategy and gained a lot positions since that to finish 4th - that was his 3rd RTFR XL race finish,first better than 8th place. Arska was also one of the tyre durability victims - he lost a position before last turn to finish 5th - 9th top5 finish for him in total,1st this year.

* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
R.Kardol keeps extending his lead in laps led chart as he added another 24 from this race - however this fact is not so much fun for him as from 22 races he led,the dutchman has won only 10 and with this race he sees the winning percentage sinking even lower. This year is even worse as from over 100 lead laps in 3 races he's still winless.

* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
Only a single driver finished the race without any work in the pitstop - the organizer completed the mandatory pitstop requirement with a 10.51 seconds workfree break in pitstop. There were few faster pitstops,but these were either timed by pitwork or ruined by additional pitstop.

* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
Again a paragraph where the organizer has to mention himself - from 17th to 7th was a 10 positions gain,that's 3 more than 2 best rivals.

In 4 weeks the next RTFR XL will be returning to Fern Bay's Black configuration in reversed direction again - already the previous Fern Bay visit was in this exact course. But instead LX car,we'll be running the TBO classes RWD car XRT. That will be 4th appearance of this car in RTFR XL,first one since 49th event. Surely that will be somewhat easier race despite higher distance than upcoming normal RTFR race on the closest tuesday. More details will be posted on the weekend.
