Then I'm glad I don't watch this "racing" series.

Don't be such a snob there much more controversial "accidents" in btcc (LOL plato) than Nascar.

And what about Schumacher's "blocks"? Overly aggressive drivers will exist everywhere. It's just more magnified on oval racing cause of the compact nature of it. One tiny spin will likely result in a 10 car pile up.

Can u buy me an iRacing subscription please?

Google gave me gmt + 4 and gmt + 5... So which is it? I just need some confirmation sorry...

Hi I just need to make sure...

What gmt is Colombia's time?

Quote from MadCat360 :

"professional sim racer"?

Ehhhhh..... That may be a slight exaggeration just for business and it's meant to assure prospective buyers that I was careful with the wheel and I didn't throw a destructive tantrum whenever I failed in need for speed

Quote from Mustafur :

It pretty much is.

I dont know...I say oval calls for a different situation...I mean I seen Indy wrecks similar to that as well.

But what is both IRL and NASCAR (or any other oval organization) to do about this...I say let just let it go. If a driver does that kind of blocking it's the driver who moves down's fault.

As Petty said, "block me once that's fair, block me twice you're going into the wall."

Ah cool, well good luck with the team and hopefully I'll see you on the track

I'm selling my momo for cheap and currently it's below $50. It's a very good wheel for it's price

IMHO, the most they should do is assign a warning for aggressive blocking (and I dont even think they should do that). if you come down on someone a wreck is bound to happen...and it's just racing. You can also see who has better judgment or is willing to play fair in tight situations like this as well. Drivers like Jeff Burton, Mark Martin, etc will not so something like that. But if you have over aggressive drivers in that situation things like that will happen. But it's not really something we can regulate or restrict.

After all Schumacher "blocked" right into Villeneuve and Hill in F1 as well. Granted it didn't cause a massive wreck like it does in oval races but this is just the nature of oval racing

If they add rules against blocking on the last lap it will like completely neutering someone

Re listing the wheel at a cheaper price:

I've done anime cars before. I'm willing to help out if you dont mind

Me thinks that LFS ppl are getting too bored

So...ummm...how do you decide the winner?

LOL I play Second Life as well

Anyways interesting new team. I wish you good luck. I am curious of your team skin be good to see a comicbook style team skin

As much as I hate Tony Steward, that was Busch's fault. 100%, he blocked him once, that was fair, if you come back in front of him you can't expect the other guy to just brake and ruin his race.

I suggest an "Oval Masters" league in which we have 4-6 different combos.

Either that or we get an fz5 oval league cause I'm definitedly up for that

The lights are pretty useless IMO. It would be cool to show off to your friends/girlfriends/roommates/family/dog/etc who dont really have any idea of what sim racing is (my roommate was impressed by my G25 by itself as plain as it looks to me). However, if the force feedback is improved from the G25 I will definity try to fork out some money for that. But besides thatt I think I'll pass. I can probably guess it'll be more expensive than the G25 if this thing is actually real

5 years is wonderful! Grats and good luck in your future

CLOCKWORK WELCOMES S. WILLIAMS



Clockwork Motorsports welcomes Sean Williams (xtraction) to the team. Thank you for your interest in us and we hope you enjoy your stay in our comfy garage

Quote from SmegFirk :

QUESTION FOR THE ORGANISERS

Do you require the graphics on the skins that are on your website for cars running on the oval race? Or are those just for the GP event?

Thank you.

I have another question, is the GP race going to be held at the same time as the 350?

Quote from Ori :

should have been more precise:

- a series running only on oval (needn't be based on IRL or smth like that)
- preferably open wheelers (FO8 obviously is the best choice)
- of course you must advertise it! otherwise the whole thing is pointless
- the schedule would be like this:
25.05: "chicagoland"
19.08: "indianapolis"
28.10: "michigan"
...

- with the 400 and 500 you already have the attention of some of the best oval racers, which seems to be a good base from which the series would start

@ndr: sorry for maltreating this thread guys

Ya, what you are asking is quite different lol. But an indycar league in LFS would be pretty cool IMO. You can potentially have 4 ovals.

1 - KY1
2 - KY1R
3 - AU Short track oval (Martinsville lyt)
4 - BL3 Short track oval (Another short oval lyt)

And possibly add 2-4 Road Courses. I vote:

1 - Aston North
2 - South City Chicane

Actually...that right there would make a very good Indy league Short track ovals with FO8 will be a riot

Quote from Ori :

Actually wanted to wait with this until end of CART season but now the attention is better:

How about a purely oval series?

I don't understad why there has been none until now - or have i missed anything?

There has actually been quite a few oval series. Its just that people either don't pay attention or the series is poorly advertised. Or sometimes ppl just aren't interested.

There was LFSCAR that was runned by FM. Falcon tried an xrt oval league: Kyoto Nights but no one was interested. Then I founded StormCup which turned into the XSCC and it's currently running now.

There was also Rising Star and L-ASCAR that just recently finished their season.

Just head over to XSCC its good fun . Also I hear there might be another gt oval league coming up so keep your eyes peeled

Quote from Pablo Donoso :

As long as there is competition to be #1, there will always be someone that will cheat to try to obtain it. If they want to cheat the system, I'm not gonna say anything about it then, it doesn't affect anyone except the ones that do it, but if they want to cheat to beat other players, then I would say something.

meh, it's just a personal choice, I think it's wrong. Draft and pass is the way it should be. If people can't do that, it shows everyone else that they only care about themselves, not about others. That's not cool with me, those selfish b-tards. I always think of others, and make sure everyone's best interests are kept in mind.

I'm bumping someone ahead of me to give the person ahead of me a boost instead of myself...ya that's selfish alright
