I'm potentially interested. But US is really big. Where and when?

Does it have to be karts? I heard some where you can rent midgits for some short track dirt racing...don't know how accurate that statement is though LOL

I welcome everyones opinion. The same as everyone welcomes mine.

Or do they? OMG, but opinions can't wrong right? And if they cant be wrong they cant be unwelcomed right? Or are they? ZOMG TEMPORAL PARADOX

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

I will never apologize for anything, as I don't have anything to apologize for. My opinion is my opinion, and everyone is entitled to have it force fed down their throat.

You're a retard...

Wat? Just exercising my right to force my opinion on others and make a total arse of myself. HEY!!! This is fun!

Quote from mutt107 :

the cars will look better IMO.

You mean they'll look more like stock cars than gts? I don't really see why people care so much about how this will make the cars look.

Blocky american style gt or more stockcar looking...Ooooooo big difference...seriously nothing will look worse than the new f1 anyway.

Quote from heson :

Sweet, like a rally cross joker lap. (but it should be longer)

The largest problem (with the non overtaking) is the aero, its impossible to overtake if you cant stay close to the car infront while turning. I saw a IRL race and they could actually drive close (maybe 'cos they
drive so slow)

I don't think speed has anything to do with it. After all, DTM is much slower and the racing is about as crap (if not crappier) than F1. Plus IRL cars don't generate as much downforce I imagine (although they do generate enough to run upside down at 120 mph)

IRL cars do have that push to pass button and mechanically they are more suited to banks, roughs (see long beach LOL) so they don't get out of shape as easily as F1 (which is amazing cause they have quite a bit of horsepower and a higher top speed). Plus IRL cars are closer together than the F1 grid.

Not to mention the oval chassis design makes it much more feasible for draft battles to occur as stategic drafting is what makes ovals they way they are instead of a single file fest on every oval

Different design, tighter field. Speed has not much to do with it. I've seen some pretty boring races at low speed before (DTM, WTCC, KONI)

Quote from johnnylightning :

Skins: $300.00 for 7 of each car.

Ok, give me $300 and I'll create the best skins I've ever done in my life

Are they going to make changes to the CoT already? Didn't see anything about that.

But I am happy to see that the speedway rules will be improved.

However, I think the biggest news right now is that Nelson Piquet jr will be in NASCAR trucks with Red Horse Racing.

The thing is...RHR finished 8 and 9 in the final standings with 1 win. Piquet is going to a good (albeit) poor team so there will be a LOT of pressure on him. It's a do or die deal right now. I'm not 100% sure how I feel about his involvement in NASCAR considering he's such a fail in F1.

Sick of his crap, is he Stigs brother or something?

Nah he's the stig's american cousin

You seriously need to stop making all this stuff up.

Quote from master_lfs.5101 :

who would spend 500$ on a frickin team?

Exactly. That's why NO ONE spends that much on a team. Do you think CoRe or 3id's budget is $500? This isn't real motorsports. The fast teams didn't get there because they spend a lot of money.

Quote from hansonator69 :

ewwww Brad Cause-a-wreck-ski

LOL

Thanks for the well wishes.

Regarding 4SRT...you know...after snarky comments such as "LOL AROX LEADS 4SRT = FAIL" the leaders of 4SRT didn't really feel like going alone any more. I mean this decision wasn't a hasty one I assure you. Optix and 4SRT sat down and had a very long 4 weeks chat about how to move on and a merge was definitely going to happen.

Sean Williams has already moved on to E-team and Optix wasn't going to survive much longer anyways...then there's an ex-Clockwork member who would like to participate in the merge as well to help organize the team (he also might bring a server but that feel through...we decided to go forward anyways).

We've just decided to go with Clockwork's batch of skins and I had a Webs site setup for it already. So while I can understand that this merge seems very...weird...it really was a joint decision and a decision that took a very long time for us to make.

That's why the LFSF hasn't heard a word about this until now. After all...it's just change in team theme and skins. The integrity (and hopefully some speed) of Optix and 4SRT can live on through Clockwork. It all depends on our members now to make the best of this new situation and so far we've been working hard to hopefully put a good showing in our signed leagues

We're not here to rock the boat. We're not here to take the community by storm. We're not here to be CoRe X2. We're here to have fun and we're here to better ourselves. No more no less.

As I've stated before on Clockwork's site...here's to a new and better 2010...now lets hope that this time clockwork and DNFs wont be come synonyms of each other

Cheers and thanks to those who decided to join us,
and cheers to LFSF,
Lizard

Vince (proa2414) and I will compete under Clockwork Motorsports

Hello fellow LFSers. Recently there has been a lot going on behind the scenes of Optix and 4SRT. Members of both teams have been discussing a merge for a very long time. Those who are still left with Optix and 4SRT have decided to merge together in one team.

A few former members of Clockwork were a little nostalgic about the old Clockwork team. Thus, we all decided to merge under a rebuilt Clockwork Motorsports.

For more detail see here: http://clockwork.freeforums.or ... ports-read-inside-t1.html

We hope that this merge will prove fruitful and we get some better results than the massive list of DNF credited to the old clockwork. But most of all, who hope that all of us here will have fun.

Its 2010 dude..... WoW jokes stopped being funny in late 08...... No one gives a damn about it anymore....

Hey I actually still play it

Besides, name another MMO that's actually managed to surpass WoW

...Age of Conen...fail...Warhammar Online...fail....Aion...fail.

WoW is still the most popular (unfortunately) MMORPG. Personally, I wish people would see the light and move to EVE Online or Face of Mankind (both are also fails compared to WoW)
