I meant on the forum. If i could fly the Texan flag i surely would.

Seriously, you want UK counties, then I want the counties of each of the 50 american states, that way you know that I live in Franklin County, Ohio j/k

By that logic youre part of Europe.

North America is a continent, "America" is a short name for the "United States of America", referring to the fact that the United States were in fact located in America.

So you want to be displayed like we are displayed now? Be prepared to be listed as "England, UK", "Scotland, UK", "Northern Ireland, UK" and "Wales, UK". That's as deep as the listing of american states goes

Quote from StableX :Could just say USA and wonder where in the USA like I do for people thinking where in England!

That's the same as saying UK not the same as saying "England"

Bob's right. The USA is a federation of states (see the historical definition of "state", meaning country). Sadly most of those living within said federation are brainwashed enough to not know the difference. Like the UK being composed of different countries. Within each of these states are counties of thier own.

While on the subject, England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales get the choice of thier local flags or the Union Flag on the forum, yet those living in the United States only get the USA flag.

If you want I'll say something to Becky, but really We aren't gettign anythign mroe than you are right now, the USA is just there so people know that "Connecticut" is part of the USA instead of just saying "where the hell is Connecticut!?!"

Edit: Dammit Jack beat me to it, and brought up a point that I didn't

i would think the Raceabout would make a good non-downforce race car as well, with the addition of slicks, a hard top and serious roll bar. Wouldn't even neccisarily need any more power, just give it bigger brakes and strip it out a little

Probably not, but that's kinda how we got the RAC isn't it? and the MRT, and to an extent the BF1. All offered by parties involved with thier design and construction

I like it, it could also easily solve the lack of rallyx courses

I was tempted to enter an FXR with GT300 spec restriction on it

Well that, and Indy cars are in fact a type of formula car.

for several years the Indy500 was actually a points paying event for formula 1 drivers that entered

how about

A non-downforce race car for the single seater crowd

And could someone explain to me this misconception that you cant race a stock car on a road course?

I would deffinitely enter restricted GTR, they are a lot of fun.

and i have had several people test with me when i was balancing my own class that just loved the 300 bhp class i put together, and liked the way they worked with the gtr's

I'm not even terribly active and i knew about J.B.

I'd give him his avatar back in a heartbeat if i had the choice, simply out of respect for a long standing member.

Tristan and i don't agree often, but this is one of those times

Fischfix is right, Sport Stock does not allow any spoilers

meh, chalk that up to me not paying attention, you get the point its 50:50

And the XRS model i've been showing is built to specifications (with a couple allowances made for me not wanting to chop 2 models apart to get what i need) for NASCAR Sport Stock. I assume you made a Nextel Cup class car or something like it.

It's Important to understand the NASCAR equates to the FiA, and Nextel Cup equates to DTM.
NASCAR, like the FiA, is a sanctioning body, running many different leagues and divisions, of which Nextel Cup is the most popular.

as a rule a don't add my support to new car threads unlesthe thought of racing them makes me a) giggle, or b) grin for mroe than 15 seconds.

Yeah, i know. If nothing else i can take the model and use it in rtractor.

tire behavior at high load with no downforce ought to be useful for fine tuning the tire engine and suspension engine. I guess i could have a go in patch V with the Tweak version on offer. Just tweaking an XRG up to the proper HP with the slicks of the right size ought to accomplish a good test since they would make the same downforce.

Attatched is a layout, like the one made for the RB4 gtr before.
I wonder if the devs ever even look at this forum

One last render before bed.i dont think i have it all quite lined up with the original scene, but hey, you get the point.

Getting the lights to not bleach out the paint was hard, till i found the right light to turn off

Changed the skin, because i actually need some help from a skinner.
I'm gonna upload the tire skin here. Lets see who can make the Shinozooka racing slicks.

Shinozooka because they have thier logo on the billboards at the oval.

Also, who makes rims in LFS?

Oddly enough with the general attitude toward ovals, they would see the most benefit from physics refinement, since the oval tends to produce the extreme extents of what you would see being produced in the game engine.

Most g-force, most speed, most use of the aero engine, most load on tires.


Now, just a question but does anyone have a problem with the V8 for this car being provided by XR Autosport, since thier logo already appears at the kyoto ring?


Edit: Currently the best racing to be had on the oval in LFS are street tired cars and the FO8. Fo8 produces side by side racing, if theres not a rule to prohibit tussling over positions. and the street tired cars require that you actually think about cornering

Got the stock car style wheels on it and added 2 Katt exhaust pipes with turndowns at the end, like mandated by the Sport Stock regulations. Gonna take someone more skilled than me to replace the interior and get rid of the front spoilers

Blackwood, By far the most iconic track of LFS. When you think LFS you can't not think of blackwood and the history it has.
