No LXs?

It's a pity.

Quote from scania :...

How do those new DTM rules look like? I hope they're getting nearer to the original concept of "touring cars".

Quote from X-Ter :I'm planning a vacation in the UK, and I most probably will rent a car to move around in. Now... I wonder if the gear layouts in a normal cars (manual) is the same regardless of the fact that the seat is on the right hand side, or are they mirrored? I was sure they where the same, but a workmate said no way, it got to be mirrored.

So, is it?

It would be stupid to mirror the gear layout, you would have to redo all the linkage.

Our LHD Focus 1.8L Petrol (the 2.0 ST170 got 6 gears, as opposed to all other variants having 5 gears, though i'm not sure about diesels) has a
1 3 5
2 4 R
layout.

Quote from Kalev EST :For £1200 you could get a real used car instead of this invalid carriage.

There aren't enough used cars for every one who needs a cheap car.
TBH, i quite like it.

I went only 48kmh on a slight downhill near my house. If i had a longer gear ratio i could have gone faster...

Quote from ajp71 :I'm not sure, the E36 GT cars that I worked with for work experience used a litre for a typical lap (under 2 minutes) with the 3 litre straight 6 and 1.5 litres/lap with the M5 V8. Admittedly they were full race engines so you'd hope to get better fuel consumption from the road car but the V8 race car would probably be using about 5 litres a lap round the 'ring

I was talking about the 20,8km long nordschleife, not the GP track.

EDIT: Thanks, Buddha!

I only have one complain about this mod:
the fuel consumption.
It is quite low, you need less than a liter of fuel for a full nordschleife lap.

Found it on a german RC car drift site, and thought: "another of these pathetic pseudo games with no real cars and awful physics".
Tried it, and after one day I bought the license.

I've got here a text file generated with Super Pi which is about 32 million decimal places...it's probably the most useless file on my HDD, but it's somehow odd that something as simple as a circle has got it.

IMO this is a very impressive performance, and the car doesn' look that bad, but I would get either a 997 Turbo or a Corvette (Z06 or ZR1 anyone?).

You just need to convert the file names to the new file prefix: eg. XFG instead of XF GTI.

And then everyone complaines about the xrt oversteering (licked diff)...at least that's what I experienced.

Quote from niall09 :Open up a command prompt (Start --> Run type "cmd" (Without quotes) in XP, or hit the start button and type cmd in the Vista start search bar.

Navigate to the folder where you downloaded x10_to_x30_setup_fix.exe, using the "cd" (Change directory command)

When in the correct folder type

x10_to_x30_setup_fix.exe --path="\path\to\your\lfs\root\dir"

Where the bit in quotes is your path to your LFS root folder (e.g. C:\User\LFS)

Hit enter and it should run

How do we do that?
Like: cd D:\
for example?

I thin the trick is to be a bit more relaxed and not push SO hard:
instead of going 100%, go for 95%.
