Have I have not already explained? . Nah, just messing, I know that you posted that message before I edited my previous post. The explanation is there anyway

Quote from The General Lee :

231kph = 143mph

:doh:. You don't really pick up on things quick, eh?

Niko's screenshot shows the car doing 86 MPH:138.4 KMH
Seperate subject ->I stated that most cars max out at 144 MPH:231.75 KMH

Quote from The General Lee :

348kmh = 207 mph

LOL! I was talking about the actual speed in the screenshot which was 86 MPH :rolleyes:

The cars usually max out at 231.75 Kmh.

138.4 to be precise

Hi all! I just wanted to ask if anyone knew where I could find guides that have guidelines to making a professional sponsorship proposals. I'm trying to get into the world of racing and I need to start making a proposal. Thanks!

There's no need for that kind of comment surely? In a thread titled "Gentleman's Agreement" it's very out of place.

TAKE 2! ACTION!

Well, not sure if you've heard of it but there was this invention, I think it came out around the start of civilisation, I could be wrong, might be before. Anyway, this invention wasn't a physical object, its a psychological way of thinking. It was named joking in England but called kidding in the United States of America. In other countries, due to their distinct languages, have it named differently as for example, in Arabic, its called مزح. Its generally used to cheer people up when they are feeling tense or when feeling sad but also, can be used randomly when people are what is called "Having a laugh". Its very effective, you should try it


Just in case you didn't pick up on it and familiarise yourself with this ancient invention, all the text that I've written was designed to wind you up. I was, as I mentioned in my post, having a laugh

DAMN! bad timing . I'm off to do a karting race, its not a fun race, more of a career thing . Sorry

In case you're thinking that I just did one, I did, yes but theres another one

7!? you SERIOUS!? :jawdrop:. Harjun, seriously m8, 1 a day! MAX!. I heard a tragic story of a football player who drank 4 of them before a match and during the match, he literally just dropped dead . Now, back then, Red Bull had what was claimed "4 cups of coffee" of caffeine which they say has been decreased to 1 now. Still, 7 cans of Red Bull a day and 2 is waay too much still. You'll get some seriously bad insomnia .

I'm not making fun, I'm just giving advice in case you take this the wrong way

LOL! is every1 on lvl. 13? . I'm on 13 too but Beta test closed now

Quote from harjun :

Ok Leprekaun...sorry, i'll search next time...

Thank you!

Quote from The General Lee :

Stay off the Red Bull. Its really cool to drink it when your 13, because you have to be over 16 to drink. But when most of the forum uses are over 16...they all fail to find you "cool" Just a little tip.

Didn't even try the game, sorry.

My dad and sis told me that it says 18 on the can . I started drinking Red Bull from around 13-14. Still love it but I save it for either when its early in the day so I can sleep early or as a stimulant before I do a physical activity.

Trying to steal the limelight harjun?

I'm not the man to attack people harjun but please, use the search function. Victor or phpBB or whatever made it easier so that when you make a new thread, it shows threads with similair names. Check them first before you embarrass yourself by posting something thats already been posted.

Yeah, well spotted. Even the arseholes need to respect the rules

Quote from U4IK ST8 :

Hahaha...nice mature language there Lep.

I know!. I'm like SOO mature man!

Quote from anttt69 :

I agree with U4IK ST8 about the Irish sticking together, you get away with murder & then carry on driving like a complete .

Irish sticking together!? yes, well, it seems that we do stick together when we want to race and have fun, theres nothing wrong with that, in fact, it should be encouraged with other countries too, you could call it a big fat + with us. I don't like you attacking Niki by telling him that he gives unfair judgment like that because no matter how you say "I never mentioned Niki" Niki is the organiser of this league, he runs it, he does the results, he investigates incidents and not to mention him paying out of his pocket for the server too, the man is not a man, he's SUPERMAN! . Niki's done it all right and Niki has supported drivers (complaints against other Irish drivers whom he punished or gave warning to).

Let me tell you a small story that happened last weekend with my bro, myself and another driver (my bro and myself complained about the other driver). We were in a kart race, everything was fine until that other guy (to make things easier, we'll call him A, my bro B and myself C). So point is, A hit the rear of B going into a corner whilst in the braking zone and at the apex. A claims that because he was alongside, he had a right to be there and it was B's fault for not giving room and that he spun. Now, obviously, according to proper racing conduct or rules, A was in the wrong. He was meant to be alongside before the braking zone to be allowed to consider overtaking B but he started moving over whilst they were both in the braking zone. He went in too fast and hit driver B. Another few situations was that he kept tapping the rear left/right of my kart going into corners when he had waay less than 50% overlap to be there, yet he didn't fall back and we kept making contact. I had to do about 20-30 corrections alone from him. So, driver B had something against him, driver C had something against him so after the race, we went up to him. I went up to him cool headed to tell him that I didn't appreciate the tapping he did with me and driver B also did the same thing about the incident he had. I talked to him for a while, telling him what is allowed and what isn't but politely and being nice so that in future, when he's racing in something much more serious, a serious accident doesn't happen where he gets hurt or hurts drivers around him and also for my welfare so that he doesn't hurt me! . We had a fun race after the official race where the incidents happened and honestly, no joke! he didn't do anything like that AT ALL. He respected what I said and what my bro had said and drove much better and much fairer. So, the moral of the story is that if you're nice to the driver you're not pleased with, if you tell him nicely why you think what you think, they often will side with you and be more careful in future.

I sided with you on that incident at South City, I felt Eoin should've been punished but the difference is you see, I complain, ofcourse for my own sake but also for the sake of the driver I complained about so that he learns in future to be more cautious in situations similair to it and not swiping at them every chance I get and asking for trouble. I see Eoin as a gentleman tbh, he sent me a setup last night which actually, makes me feel bad about reporting him so sorry Eoin but you weren't punished anyway . He apologised to me for using the apron and gave me a rational explanation to why he thought it was allowed to use it, ofcourse, my opinion differed but thats because Eoin races in real life and rules tend to be very specific or different because in LFS, its just about being clean really and you're ok.


Really sorry for the long post , thats the shortest way I could put that story

Quote from GOT DENNINGED :

Sorry Leprekaun I didnt realise this was a problem. Like I said last night I am not an expert on LFS rules this is my 1st full league to race on. But when I raced in real life on an oval with an field passing on the apron off the start was no problem.

Anyway guys this league has been good. But I really dont enjoy the people who bitch and Moan. I have been takin out in loads of races and never complained. That new guy SSR|D.Lind93 took me out on the last lap when I was 2nd and I didnt have a problem with it. This is not F1 World championship its only a bit of fun on a monday night. Dont get me wrong I am competitive and I like to win but I'm sorry if some of u take it a lot more serious...

I appreciate the apology and I can understand why you would do something of the sort(real racing rules). I just thought that its just common sense to understand that the apron shouldn't be used but hey, racing is a crazy sport, there is no real common sense

I tried the recalibrate thing, didn't work . I didn't try the locking but still, even in Windows, its still off center .

Hi all! I bought a couple Dual Shock pads (PS2 style ones ) there a few days ago but I have a problem. Whenever I'm playing LFS, the stick seems to go a bit to the left making the steering go a bit to the left, I can't see it in the actual pad itself but I can see it in the controls menu in LFS so registers it as off center. I also tested it out in the control panel and it seems that even tho it seems its not off center, I think it has a larger deadzone than LFS because when I move the stick to the left, it takes a while to respond but when I move it to the right, it responds straight away. I know that it seems that they're pretty much crappy pads. So if any1 here knows how I can center the sticks, please let me know, I'd really appreciate it . Thanks!

I know this is waay OT but why is everyone using garph's avatar?

What'd ya know? some1 already made the car that Norbi drove . http://www.nogripracing.com/de ... ?filenr=4860&readme=1

There is one which I just found last night . Its good fun . Its one of those games where you roam around in cities, go race with other online users, buy parts, join crews, etc. Its called DriftCity. Check it out!

Well, I never expected to have a top 10 position after my poor performance in quali. I hadn't done any laps at all practice before this race(look at my stats for proof [23 laps done at KY Nat, XFG]). So to climb 14 positions in a 7 lap race was very satisfying for me . 2nd race, well, I felt that I deserved 4th place after what Murray did. Still, considering I had done 0 practice and to finish 8th and 6th is pretty good .
