It looks to me as if Coulthard is braking early, and leaves Button absolutely nowhere to go except to the right and thus into Coulthard. I could be wrong though, as I don't know for sure where the actual braking point of that corner is.
Well, we sorta noticed with the Elise 111R on Suzuka... the guy in #1 has no shifting delay when he shifts up. The automatic clutch however cuts the throttle for nearly half a second on up-shifts in that car (noticable by looking at the red bar filling the throttle bar)
May I ask if you are racing with the G25? My brother and I have noticed that shifts are a lot faster with a manual clutch from watching the top replays. I just wonder if you were able to get 2nd without the faster shifts
That's probably also because every base setup is horrible to drive. My brother is an excellent driver (even rocks at LFS after 2 laps) and was using the base-setup for the Lotus 111R /Tuned online and managed to win some races, but spun out due to random mistakes often.
So I drove around in that ass-first, face-second car on Suzuka for 1 lap, changed the suspension settings and camber a bit and presto: a car that doesn't drive like a shopping trolley on ice.
Now I'm not even good at doing set-ups (especially in LFS) and I manage to mess everything up that I can get my incompetent hands on. However the set I made for my brother in 2 minutes took almost 10 seconds off his best time I'd say something is messed up with the base-setup.
By the way, is there any way to adjust the amount of wheel rotation used in the game? I find it rather impossible to catch slides reliably and get away with the ever-impending GT5 snapback of doom with the full 900 degrees on the DFP.
That's a very unlikely assumption. I don't know of any MMORPG's, for example, that erase your account when you stop paying. It should just be frozen, and this will be the case unless their marketing managers are utter retards and don't deserve their title. There is absolutely no reason to incorporate that type of account, whatsoever, and anyone working on a project like iRacing will absolutely know that.
Last boss of "Dodonpachi dai ou jou" at the end of the 2nd cycle of the game (basically twice as hard when compared to the first playthrough)
IIRC, there are only about 3-5 players capable of getting to the boss, and this video is I think the best attempt at the boss ever recorded (without use of macro-tools, there are plenty of videos of those)
I just had my first online race. I guess it's exactly what I expected... the netcode is smooth and everything feels more or less like it does off-line, except of course the 11 morons in a 12-man race who never brake and use everyone else as their personal bumperbrakes. Funnily enough, I finished 2nd in a 12-man field with the absolute slowest car of the pack.
To give a good view on my experience: think T1 on a demo server in LFS, and then that for every turn unil the finish, as the idiots are not taken out as harshly by natural selection (aka damage/flipping/crashing)
Still had fun offline though, and I'm sure in time there will be a way to only play with normal people.
Done with a DFP. It feels alright compared to GT4, but not particularly realistic at all. Brother got the game yesterday, and we played it in turns and had a blast. That's just because the GT series is good for arcadey entertainment. It's still not a simulator; never has been and never ever will. ever.
Kovalainen doesn't exist as far as the news reporters are concerned. I'm actually pretty tired of seeing these polls that go: "Who will win the 2008 WDC? Räikkönen, Hamilton or Massa?". Bah.
Well, depending on how you look at it, Islamic fundamentalists are the only true believers left. Christians would be doing the same if they still followed the bible closely, as would almost any religion known to us.
This is what (true, unchanged) religion is folks; it's hate and war-mongering under a thin veil of moral and compassion. Religions these days have modernised and have taken some distance from their violent roots, but so far, Islam is best at keeping their religion true to its origins, even though most of its followers (the non-fundamentalists) have entered the age of reason.
Having said that though: modern followers of most religions are mostly good people. I have a few strictly religious friends whom I have incredibly good times with, but we don't discuss those differences much anymore - live and let live.
It's just my opinion that most modern believers are living a lie as their holy books tell different stories than the ones they tuck their children in with at night.

I honestly do not want to sound rude or anything, since everyone is entitled to their opinion and I can definitely see why F1 is not as interesting to some people (as it used to be?) but why do you still watch/care about F1 if all you do is complain about it?
I don't really see why you have the need for an 8800gt or a Quadcore for a sound editing/LFS PC. You can save hundreds of dollars for the (exact) same experience. I mean, whether you have 60fps or 300fps won't matter, and LFS is not power-hungry at all.
I'd just pick up a DX9 card and a simple duo-core, although I can't be more specific than that atm.
