OT: Have to agree with this, that's what drift servers are useful for!
Just a little bit of drink or smoke for me and I become dangerous and slow on the track (like i weren't already ). But you can be as high or drunk as you want, as long as you can sit still and keep your eyes open, you can drift

Bob's easy race -like neutral sets would do the trick. One per car, or two for the rallycross ones. If you want to adjust downforce or gearing, it's really not that hard to move one slider.
Scania, the longitudal lines on the asphalt in the forces view represents lateral forces. When the wheels are spinning, the line is red. On the other car you can see the red bar shooting onwards from rear tires - they are spinning. On the other car there is no bar at all on the rear wheels because they're just dragged behind, so this "quiz" was kinda pointless.
By wikipedia definition FWD drifting IS drifting, but who really cares? If it makes you a happier ass-dragger, then fine. There is just nothing to discuss about it.
If your car is drifting, the wheel really does countersteer "by itself", because the tyres want to follow the path of least resistance. If you try to straighten them at some point, there will most likely be more resistance, which is what you're talking about.
If you've never driven LFS with high amounts of wheel turn degrees, it can take some time to adapt despite possible real world driving experience. But it's just the lack of physical clues, nothing that a few practise days couldn't heal.
Doesn't make easier or doesn't make a difference? If you set in game force to 0%, does it really go off completely? If so, increase it one step at a time by pressing "." until you're happy with it, after all it's up to you how you want it.
Yup, 30% force isn't driveable with 2 or even 3 fingers, and that's why you have been advised not to do so (except pine-fin who either isn't driving with a G25, or has replaced weight lifting with LFS).
It just is with G25. Anything over 30% and it starts to clip, and is rediculously(sp) heavy. Red momo at least was different, it gave the same resistance with double amounts of %.
If the car understeers under power, the steering feels lighter than normal. Take the XFR to BL car park with the default hard track set, turn your wheel from 12 to clock 7 or 8. Drive on second gear while keeping the wheel stationary with light grip, revs at 5000 rpm. close your eyes and floor the gas pedal. You can't miss the feel! For reference you can try few with eyes open
Glorian, imo the OP had a valid point. Even virtual race track is a race track, not a sandbox. If one can't control his car or respect the ongoing race, he shouldn't be there.
BTW I fixed the image for you. Don't take it seriously, or by no means personally.
If you are turning and lock up the fronts, I believe that you can feel it. If your steering wheel is straight (as in 99,5 % of the situations when the brakes would lock up), there are no forces that would make the steering wheel move left or right.
If you want a bit more powerful car than fiesta/corsa/swift etc... Some have suggested a 200sx. I have zero knowledge of british insurance policies (here in Finland it it's calculated of accident and robbery stats, displacement and the model year), but reliability, running costs, repair costs and beginner friendliness (who cares) aren't probably the best features of this car.
However, 1996-1999 Almera GTi has the same SR20DE engine with 140-150 bhp. Japanese reliability, cheap parts and drinks 9,5 l/100km in city and 7,4 l/100km on highway. It has nice sporty handling, it's small (3-door, 1200 kg) and could fit in your price range too!
I don't understand this, and don't believe that LFS could do this wrong. If you drove against the pit limiter (80 km/h) for an hour, I believe you'd really move 80 kilometers on the track. Besides, it takes 24,4 seconds to go 1 km at 150 km/h
I think this is something that can't be much improved by improving LFS, since it's our equipment that limits reality.
If you try to simulate the vision of your eyes squeezing it into a little square 2D display, you have to compromise between natural looking enviroment (smaller fov) and sense of speed (bigger fov). The wider display you have, the less you have to compromise.
I've missed one or two shifts because of that, but some people have reported it's really annoying or blocks the 6th gear almost every time. Did yours do it from the beginning?
They are referring to the CTRA X-System, which is an external addon not related to LFS itself.
LFS has two different licenses, S1 (the old one with limited content) and S2. Third one (S3) is still to come when the game development reaches that stage.
EDIT: Whoops, this was let open as I did my grocery shopping
I don't know if this is any help, but I had similar(?) problems with red momo, and never found the cure. It just lost some calibration in crashes (or fast movements!), improved damage system that was
If your physical wheel jerks from left to right on straights, reduce force feedback strength (I used 101% in profiler and about 40% in LFS with that momo) to reduce it.
