Quote from J.B. :

I'm not sure why you think the rollbar can't twist? I've added another arrow in the picture to show how it is supposed to twist. It's the vertical bar Tristan was referring to. And I can assure you there are no torsion bars in the rockers. I've looked at the pictures and they are perfectly normal rockers, just as on any other race car.

If that's the ARB, it moves in the wrong direction... (left suspension goes in, would mean right suspension goes out, so you'ld have a rollbar, not antirollbar) So, it's not, bad speculation guys. Looks like there's only the one monoshock for accelleration/decelleration and no movement side to side (cant see any springwashers), so no need for ARB, but that's a guess, not a fact.

thanks Scawen!

Apart from the FB02, are there any other changes in the CMX viewer car wise?

yup, it seems that Dan isnt officially signed up. Now because he's such a likable fellow, I think we shouldnt give him too harsh a penalty. Let's say, he loses all his points... but only for the first race.

As we've done for BOTT, we also would gladly provide the great RSW cup with our little LfsPb app. It shows all the participating drivers' PBs on the track that will be run next. Many thanks to Wimpie for making the program and keeping it up to date.

to be found at: www.elitesqd.com under LfsPb

Enjoy!

Is it N00B in LFSN00B?

Was very happy with a 3th place quali. My strategy for the race was to watch the 2 guys in front of me drive away, instead in lap 2, Dave lost traction bigtime and I had a good chance of overtaking. But we touched and sadly I got knocked out, got the damage and got send back to 10th. Had some great fights with Spanky and Veiti and Hannu. In the last lap just before the finish I managed to overtake eraser purly on the RAC-FZ speed difference, feel a bit sorry, must have been frustrating for him . I think I could have made 4th without the offs, but then I wouldnt have had all the great fights, and 6th isnt bad in this level of racing

OMG spanky, the stripes, where did the stripes go???
The stripes!!!

wow 40 quid! Go for it mate! I agree on the brakes, they do take a beating. If you're scared of the car taking damage, you don't have to drive constantly (I presume), I've been to the ring a couple of times and I only drove a couple of laps a day, that may not seem like a lot, but together with all the off track spectating and taking in all your driving experiences it is great. Man, 40 quid, why dont I live in Brittan.

If you like retro graphics, give MTM2 a try . physics are decent and there's still a fun online tournament raced every Saturday. Oh, and its free, and there are 100s of quality add-on tracks.

2 things spring to mind:
Using standard skins will make everything blend, why not stick to our own skins and have some individuality?
What about passing? if someone makes a stupid mistakeRB4and doesn't want others to get by, it'll get pretty hectic, maybe something like a full course blue flag could be enforced?

Why that car: It's RWD!!! And it hasnt got that spoiler slick mambojambo. And the chiccas love it.

doesnt the wheel of DFP have a digital convertor thing like the black momo instead of a pot? (like the wheels in a mouse). If it does not a lot can go wrong, only some dust in between the IR sensors or on the small wheel with all the small cut outs.
I've done roughly 120k with my red momo, still feels like new, I guess you need a G25 to get that kind of performance.

It's not running on a fuel cell by chance? Lovely non polluting H2O escaping through the exhaust?

Arch I have a 8800GTX and a dualcore [email protected], still only get 15 to 20 with high settings, Guess the only way is to go SLI then?

Also had to resort back to the 163 drivers (thnx for the tip bladerunner), the beta drivers gave nothing but trouble. I do love the game, ran trough the demo 3 times, detail is just amazing even if it it is only DX9!

If the cake is a lie, than the truth must be pie.

traxxion, better look at the pics in the first post, Haven't seen that in a DTM race.

We were trying out wheight penalties last night. The main problem is if we would get both cars up to exactly the same speed, the FZ's tires wont last that long so it would be disadvantaged. I was thinking instead, because there are no point to be awarded anyway, maybe to have 2 races, 1 where everyone drives their normal car and a second 1 where everyone swaps cars. add up both points and it will allways be balanced.

that might be, but it's still a bug and a very nasty one too.

Quali wasnt great as i was using my race set and a mate was visting so didnt do any final practice laps. But quali doesnt matter that much with these cars anyway. Had a collision in T2 with anttt, he slided a bit exiting the corner and I took a tight line on his outside so we touched and spinned round... for some time . So last place, had some fun overtaking, good fight with spanky and some others, but the fighting cost me too much time to really get back.

In all, its too bad I had to miss some races due to holliday related vactions, because the races I did do were very nice. It seems in general peoples who drive these somewhat advanced LFS cars know what racing is about, it's been a true gentlemans league, was glad to be part of it, thnx for organising Dano

(Jwardy, TY @ your sig )

wow, I didnt know that really was a bug, I remember me and a teammate once lost a 3h endu race because of going off at that exact point. At that time I though it must had been something I did wrong but I never figured out what.

Plz, put it on the to do pile

Made by the great Orion 2 years ago:

We made a little app that lets us view all the pb's of our competition at next BOTT combo.
It does give actual PB's, so there might be times displayed that are still from a pre-ballast patch. We might be working on fixing that later on. The app is updated every hour and will change to the next combo automatically. It can be found at the usual address: http://www.elitesqd.com under LfsPB.

Enjoy!

Thnx Dano, looking good

We should change the next track to one of becky's bump and jumps, that way we would be able to use the FZ's awesomo dariftho phowhaaaa ants: ants: ants: :static:
