To those of you who do or do not remember my videos about a year ago. I've decided to remake them to become more fitting to the fatalities.

One of the chief arguments about the videos is that I didn't put a human face to them. Well...I'm trying my best to make a video about the sadness and horror that motorsports can present without overly glorifying the crashes or make the video purely about the crashes.

F1 management took my previous 2 tributes down, so I've reuploaded part 1 redone.

I hope you guys will still find my work better than the other "tributes" that just show the violent crashes purely for the sake of violence.

Quote from Timdpr :

Sorry for any inconvenience. This has been very ameteurish, but it shouldn't be like that in the future. Thank you for putting up with this!

Yeh, I was suppose to helm the qualifying but i got the blue screen of death and now i cant really launch anything on my roommate's comp.

Sorry guys, but the transition between me and the other admins has went smoothly so far and this bump shouldn't occur any longer (BTW, i've allowed some people to qualify tomorrow before the race but they have to do it before race start)

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Ah, bad luck for you... Sorry mate, hope to see you back soon

Thanks Yann,

Burnsy, and Tim. Talk to deko. He has a spreadsheet ready to calculate I-SCAR race points. (NDR is also suppose to give us a SC driver each race)

Also, anyone else able and willing to help Burnsy and Tim please do.

Here are the points: http://awlfs.freeforums.org/post365.html#p365

Dont worry, Deko's spreadsheet makes crunching those numbers really easy

Victor, please remove my admin rights from the I-SCAR section and add burnsy1882 as an admin please.

From now on Burnsy and Tim will be doing the requesting

Alright, as you may or may not know...

I cannot do admin duties anymore.

I tried to be there for qualifying today, but my roommate's computer is absolute crap. I went in LFS, then got a blue screen of death, then after that. I couldn't launch LFS anymore.

So...I'm forced to step away from admining. I'm sorry for this horrible luck guys .

More information on my computer, it has a cracked motherboard. Therefore, I doubt I'll be getting a proper working computer anytime soon. So I'll be stepping away from LFS in general as well.

The main admin will now be transfered to Timpdr and Burnsy.

All competitors, please watch this section avidly for any rule changes that Tim or Burnsy might bring

Time Limit is set to 2 hours. Once the 2 hour mark is passed the race will end when the last lap is completed

Quote from EliteAti :

Keep 17.30 please, otherwise the race will be a bit too late for me :P

Would 18:00 be alright?

Quote from mutt107 :

i just noticed this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v ... w_0W0&feature=related
wow this is awesome

Wow...that was pathetically unrealistic

Quote from Mustafur :

Ide would probably beat her though, he won Formula Nippon in 05 i think it was, where as Danica Really struggles on Circuits.

Duno just wasn't ment for racing.

and considering Indy is now going to be more Circuit based i think this would be more likely.

Well, IndyCar is more circuit based now. All they are adding next year is 2 more road courses (to make that a total of 9 circuit races while only 8 ovals will remain in 2010) and currently she's better than before. Yeh, she's an oval racer. But by now she's pretty much got the hang of circuits (she'd better after 5 years). She's not dazzling. But she's competent enough now where as she struggled with circuits before (when she was with Rahal Letterman).

As far as Ide...well, you're right about Ide winning Nippon. But IndyCar is on a much higher level than Nippon anyway. I doubt Ide will do well in IndyCar

A few people seemed to think that the race time is to early. Some suggestions was 18:30 GMT. Are you guys ok with pushing the time back 1 hour?

Shoot I forgot to make a skin for you. Here, this is your skin

Quote from FAburner :

i dont cut so the thing dont work right

read please....

Quote from lizardfolk :

2. Have less than 4 wheels on the ground (considering that this is a stock car on road course this happens fairly often especially on fast pb laps)

Quote from Becky Rose :

Victory in Indy Car appears to be dirrectly related to success in F1, only, the scale is somehow reversed. By all measure of previous sucessful Indy car drivers that have gone to F1, Patrick would likely become world champion easily.

Except that no IndyCar driver has ever crossed over to F1. Your mixing up CART with IndyCar. Ryan Briscoe got an F1 test but he's the closest any IndyCar driver have gotten.

Remember CART (ChampCar) and IndyCar are actually very different series (different drivers, cars, tracks, etc) and Europeans tend to mix them up. Infact, CART drivers tend to do quite poorly in IndyCar (Robert Doornbos, fantastic in CART, quite horrible at IndyCar atm. Similar story with Oriol Servià, Justin Wilson and Nelson Phillipe).

Keep in mind that IndyCar (the series that uses that strange Dallara chassis) only existed since 1996.

Quote from FAburner :

The airio dont work right at all there.

You've already been told this...airio (atleast the one on the I-SCAR server) will not record the time if you either:

1. Cut (by airio standards)
2. Have less than 4 wheels on the ground (considering that this is a stock car on road course this happens fairly often especially on fast pb laps)

Yes, technically it is working properly (unless you have other complaints)

Quote from FAburner :

i would definately want a sunday night event for the ovals! =] that would be sweeeet

If I (or you guys, w/e) can get atleast 12 people who will show up each race I will definitely do a IROC type league on Sundays

Hmm, didn't he have a flat turning into Turn 4 and not while coming out? I mean, it seems that he was REALLY high, so if he had a flat and went very wide shouldn't he have stayed wide? Would a flat tire really just suddenly pull you towards left on the straight? (Unless he had a flat coming out of Turn 4)

I had thought of putting together a mini league that's reminiscence of the old IROC series. Only 4 races.

However, before that I would prefer to race late models on the short tracks instead of the I-SCAR stock car. Perhaps I can get bob to make a late model stock

Quote from Mustafur :

Danica is really just a Midfeild racer in IRL but shes made out to be ''too good for F1'' its a load of bollocks.

I wouldn't say midfield exactly (maybe top midfield the least). But she isn't exactly a top driver.

Her past champ: 12th, 9th, 7th, 6th, and now she's currently 5th. She also has only ONE win since her arrival back in 2005.

Is she overrated? Definitely. Is she shit like Duno and Ide? No. She's good enough to stay in IndyCar and be mildly competitive. Who knows...she may be even good enough to be a midfielder in F1. But nothing beyond that. (And please...atleast win more than one indycar race before you even consider F1)

Alright,

My desktop is gone. It's currently at the repair shop but I'm not optimistic it'll come back working 100% for atleast 1-2 weeks (and it's relatively new so i'm pissed about that).

Because of that, I will withdraw from the series as a full time participant and I will be doing admins.

Unfortunately, because of my computer problems. This means I'm not as available for PMs and IMs as I was before. Any concerns or questions please post in the forums and I'll get back to you asap.

Also, keep in mind that I just recently moved back to New York for college so I'll be busy enough as it is.'

The series is still a go. But just letting you guys know why I'm away so much now.

No triple digit numbers please

Quick clarification Yann, the number can be slanted, however, it has to be mainly racing the left (so just flip that 33 on the roof and ur fine )

As the IRL field becomes more respectable (especially with the new season seeing a 9/8 circuit to oval ratio) that draws from the bet of oval and circuit racing. Duno has no business in IRL

She's reminding me of Deletraz :P
