Is there any chance we can get the teams finalised before we get there?
Id like to know who Im racing with

I was hoping to get a friend or 2 to come for moral support, but alas, they are all "busy", so Ill be the one huddled in the corner with Stoney

Quote from Fordman :

Karting starts at 3pm, but you need to be there for approx 2pm for drivers breifing, and all

fordie

Should be enough time to get there, I think..

Take loads of blank DVDs Tristan Ill buy one of you :up:

What time is the karting booked for?

Only 17 days to go

It was the weekend just gone, you missed out

I had a great time

In fact, Id go as far as to say it was the best motorsport event I have ever been to. F1, BTCC, WTCC etc etc, nothing comes close to how good the atmosphere is at Goodwood. This is a "must go" on next years calander for me, simply the best.

Hopefully I will get our pics online at some point, here is a little taster for you until then -

Anyone else going?
My friend has offered me a spare ticket and hotel room and I couldnt say no
Now I just have to find some 1950s clothes so I can get in the paddock :detective

Great day yesterday, no video or pics unfortunately. The Formula Renault cars were cool, so similar to the fxr But the Renault World Series cars were even better, so fast, so loud, and 30 odd of them on the grid. Made me think perhaps we need an intermediate single seater in LFS, its quite a big step from the fxr to the fv8. The WS cars are straight sixes...

Lots of goodies in the paddocks including a world of 5 turbos and Alpines which we drooled near (but not on), and half a dozen DeLoreans! Never seen them in real life and boy are they cool.

For a free days motorsport I cant complain, it didnt even rain

Ive managed to download it, havnt tested it yet though.

Any reason why I shouldnt post it here? mods?

I may go on Sunday if I have time, Renault have some very nice cars there
My mate (sidepants if any of you have raced him ) is a Renault nut.
It is a free event, but you had to apply for tickets online I think.

It`ll be worth it just to see an F1 car going round Donny

Thats the same driver as Im using with no problems.

You can change between 900 and 200 by pressing :

select + R3 + Right paddle shift

But I only ever set the degrees in the profiler, that shortcut is more for PS2 users I reckon. May be an obvious point but you have to have the profiler software running when you start the game

Yeah, the 900 thing is silly, the most I use is 720, 450 for the formula cars.
You never know though, we could one day get a car in LFS that has 900 degrees of wheel rotation

Thanks to BWX232 for pointing this out (saved me the hassle of working out for myself ) -

I have had my DFP for a few months now, I upgraded from an ancient Thrustmaster so I cant really offer you a comparison with the Momo or any other new wheel.
What I do want to do is to try to put your mind at rest about the unsupported platform thing. From the Wingman team website (as ColeusRattus mentioned) -

"The WingMan® Team web site is maintained by the development team for Logitech® Gaming products."

In other words these guys work for Logitech, so it may not say PC compatible on the box, but Logitech have produced DFP specific drivers. That work excellently I might add
Im not in any way disappointed by my DFP, Im very impressed with it

Nice pics Hallen! Not sure who the guy in the last one is though

The last event I went to was the 1000km of Silverstone 12th to 14th of August. LMES cars supported by British F3 and GT, oh and not forgetting the Classic Endurance Cars My friend took loads of pics which I must get of him. My crappy camera is no good for track shots but here are a few paddock shots....

Maybe they thought lets wind up all those LFS players with a dodgy review so that our crappy ads get more hits. Whoever thought those ads were a good idea needs pain illepall

Im sending my deposit in the next couple of days

Im not able to stay the night, I got to be somewhere on Sunday.
There are 2 spaces free in my car travelling from Birmingham, but like I said, travelling back Saturday night.

Cant wait

Ctrl + C reinitialises the controller.
You are better of doing it while stationary so you can move the wheel lock to lock and press the pedals all the way down. Just to make sure the full range has been registered.
As to why its happening in the first place, dunno, I have had the same wheel for a few months now with no problem.

On a side note, I found this thread useful, especially post #5. You can change the degrees of rotation of the wheel without closing LFS, changes in the wingman profiler happen straight away

I saw a race last weekend of cars with "push to pass". It was Formula Palmer Audi at Silverstone, they call it overboost. I cant say wether it added anything or not, they certainly seemed to be enjoying themselves, plenty of overtaking. Im indifferent to it really, not sure we need it, but Id use it if we got it. I wouldnt hold your breath.

Just to confirm, me and sidepants would like to make up a team.

We may add a third personlater for financial reasons, but we are both definately up for it.

I think Ive got a team member arranged.....

Maybe easy fun for you young`uns but the indoor karting Ive done recently hurts. Not anymore though, the place we go to was burnt down on Sunday night, arson they reckon

Id be up for that, karting is alot of fun. For those that have not done it before, prepare to hurt (arms mainly)
Anyone need a lift from Birmingham Ill be driving.
Just hope it doesnt clash with other things, the sooner you guys pick a date the better.

Great tool, thanks

Is there a recommended minimum number of laps to drive / fuel to put in / avaerage lap time to get in to get a decent average when posting a new consumption? Sorry if I missed it on the website or some other discussion at rsc.
