Right guys, let's have a guessing-competition!
How fast do you think the BF1 will lap the Blackwood GP track?
We know it's under a minute, but try and see if you can give a time in seconds?

I'm guessing somewhere between 52-54 seconds as a WR.

Quote from Lampost22 :

I didn't get it...is this "less than a minute car" an actual pic taken from a real car or is it a new modeled one by the devs with slight differences but quite right for lfs?!?! illepall with 900hp less than a minute should be no question.

The current F1 cars "only" produce 750hp.

Quote from farcar :

Actually, I've always wondered why games developers would have to pay to have 'official' content in their games. This is free exposure for Sauber BMW, Intel, Petronas etc. They benefit from this, why should they charge money?

At least they should benefit from it.

Quote from colcob :

Excellent. This must be the first serious F1 simulation since GP4 and F1C. Its about time someone had another stab at it.

Looks like all that Intel sponsorship in the German ESL pro leagues has finally come up with the goods. Thats networking for you.

Sony bought the rights to F1 games some time ago, that's why we've only seen crappy plastic games with arcade like handling and cars that can lap Spa in less than 5 seconds.

Quote from ste_ :

OMG now i'll be able to crash at even higher speeds -- thanks devs!!

I think you should just stick to the UF, ste

Notice that the tyres read Falcon RZ, and not Michelin.. hmm

What The Monkey?

Quote from Madman_CZ :

finally managed to read all the pages from where i left off, over 2000 posts now, sheeesh its getting ridicilous. One just cant keep up with all the posting...

hopefully the patch is coming today..

You read the whole thread? I bet it was very repetitive.

Quote from Taavi(EST) :

help! i'm starting to mutate....

Well that's pleasant.

Where did all the "new car" speculation come from?

Remember when I said I wasn't going to kill you? I lied.

I also lied when I said that you hadn't been picked for my special BANANA EXCURSION. CONGRATULATIONS!

Quote from MikeB :

Just a fake - albeit a good one

A very good one indeed. But, hmm

749 mb.. but then again I have 2 different LFS installs, so in total it's 1.23 GB..

Some dude in the chatterbox claims that his friend has the patch:

Quote from Lampost22 :

Well, if you can't save the setup you are still able to save a wr-ghost-car though. thats also interessting since this is the time to beat. nice to see how you lose that much time just T1.

cya

I haven't been able to get this to work? How did you do that?
I've only managed race a ghost of my own lap.

Has anyone else noticed this, at the bottom of the April Update page?

Quote from Renku :

Aston North seems interesting .

Indeed!
Now, tomorrow they'll unveil the surprise and then we will have the patch in our virtual hands on monday.

Quote from Rappa Z :

Seems everyone wants you gone.

Let me just quote myself, so I'm sure you see this one. This is for you Rappa Z:

You're an idiot. And I don't give a shit about your straight A's.
Getting straight A's at your age isn't exactly a big ****ing accomplishment, so I suggest you shut your monkey-hole and hide in the corner for a few weeks. Don't your parents pay you the attention you need?

Quote from L(Oo)ney :

No need to talk about tristan like that, he's a nice bloke.

/me think's i'll be added to his ignore list, right about....Now.

lol

Quote from Rappa Z :

I can go so off topic. Like right now. I'm younger than u all. What do u expect?

Quote from GT Touring :

Rappa Z is a great spammer isn't he.
but have you seen the Tyre deformation on LFS website??
cripes is that more than now? and more than possible?
it looks like the gummi's are going to rip rigt off the rim!

Yeah, people here have been discussing it and it's been concluded that the tyres deform that much because the devs put passengers in the cars and lowered the tyre pressures, so it'd be easier to spot.

Quote from Breizh :

Yeah, I meant the real RAC is turboed.

250 bhp/l isn't possible unless you're in Formula 1. Of course it is "possible" but you'd have a huge difference in BHP and torque, which would be unrealistic.
Besides, the RA doens't weigh that much, so in theory it could qualify as some kind of a Lotus Elise GTR, with less power than the big guns.
