Quote from Hoppers :Well, the Stig made the Koenigsegg eat a whole tyre, so I bet the guys at Bugatti thought it would be a bad idea to let them drive the Veyron. It doesn't like eating tyres you see.

It wasn't that the "stig" didn't have downforce, It was because of the setup and the one that ate tyres had a slightly oversterry setup.


Top Gear
A pre-production CCX was featured on the May 7, 2006 episode of BBC motoring programme Top Gear. It was test-driven by Jeremy Clarkson, who praised the car highly but criticised its lack of downforce, which he attributed to the lack of a rear spoiler. He also claimed it was a replacement for smoking, saying it 'is the worlds most expensive nicotine patch'. The first power lap time was 1:20.4 seconds, with The Stig encountering short-shifting problems. Later in the same episode, The Stig lost control of the car during his second attempt to beat the Pagani Zonda F's time (1:18.4 around the Dunsfold Park track); the Stig also went on to suggest that the car would be significantly faster and more stable with a spoiler (according to Clarkson, as the Stig never speaks on camera). Koenigsegg then said that they would put a rear spoiler on the car and bring it back to Top Gear for further testing.
For the May 28, 2006 episode of Top Gear, Koenigsegg had supplied a CCX fitted with a rear wing. The Stig had another attempt, this time setting a new lap record—1:17.6. The carbon-fibre rear wing is available as optional equipment, though it drops the car's top speed to 242 mph from 250 mph.
On the episode of The Stig's crash, Jeremy Clarkson claimed that with the Koenigsegg CCX, he had found a substitute for smoking. He said "Unlike any other supercar [...] this doesn't feel sanitized or tamed". Clarkson continued "It's just completely wild and mad. It's raw, vicious, unbridled power." The Koenigsegg is able to virtually match the performance of the Bugatti Veyron, despite it having approximately 200 bhp less, because it is approximately 700 kg lighter.
In June 2006, Swedish car magazine Bilsport published an on-line article where Koenigsegg press contact Lotta de Salvatore claimed that the improved lap time was not thanks to the rear wing, as the Top Gear presenters claimed. Instead, a better chassis set-up had allowed The Stig to improve the Koenigsegg CCX's lap time by 2.8 seconds.

The reason The Stig went off the first time was that we hadn't had time to set the car up properly, it was oversteering slightly. For the second attempt the CCX had a perfect set-up and better grip. The wing doesn't do any good at the speeds seen on the Top Gear track, only above 300 kph does it start helping. – Lotta de Salvatore, Bilsport

virtual dub www.virtualdub.com , you go to audio and insert your file but if you need to convert the file to wav, http://softwaredepo.com/audio_converter.html can give you a free converter. If you need to fade out and cut the audio use Audacity and dencoding MP3 files you'll need LAME

Quote from Boris Lozac :I am (optimistically) thinking that with S2 full, there would be some graphics changes, to the interiors, to the models, maybe tracks etc.. so i don't think that i could play LFS normally with my current sytem:
Barton 2500+
512 ddr 400 ram
Asus Radeon 9550 GE

... so i am planning on upgrading my computer... only LFS can make me do that , and i hope that it WILL make me do it, because i really expect some graphic changes..
Anyway, will it be enough that i only upgrade my graphic card and my memory..?
I was planning some graphic card for about 120 euros... and another 512 ddr memory, so 1 gig in total...
Will that be enough? I know that you also don't know how these graphics changes would be(if any), so it is a bit stupid question, but aproximately, will this be enough, i mean, to stay on my NF2 motherboard and AMD Barton 2500, and only upgrade graphic card and memory?
Thanks..

PS. Maybe a litlle sugestion for Eric and Scawen, if they are planning to do some graphic changes.. maybe there should be an option like "new graphics" and "old graphics" so people who can't play with new graphics can switch to the normal LFS with one click...

Yup You can run it.

(I have a system similar to your's)

But it's not very powerful with fps going down to 15 when in full grid.
