ROFLOWERS a good 1

Quote from axus :

By that comment it sounds to me like you are expecting the patch to give you 15g's on road tyres.

No i am not expecting that. I know that tyre physics have some inaccuracy now. Like wheelspin starts are the fastest or almost no grip regain makes you go sideways forever. I am expecting this to be fixed and as far as i know it already is

Quote from Gabkicks :

what does that have to do with me confirming that cars tripod in real life as well?illepall

nothing, i guess. I think imma go wake up first and only then i'll read this forum again..

Quote from Gabkicks :

yeah happens all the time with certain cars in real life as well the evo8 tripods like crazy

in real life tyres have grip you know

Quote from XRRoy :

that happends on race tracks very often, nothing weird about it

ok

That XFG can drive on 3 wheels without updated physics? illepall

Hmm the surprise... What about racing in wet conditions? Since the tire physics have been improved that would be possible. Don't you think?

My birthday is on the 19th of April (next wednesday) I hope they are not going to be late!

Quote from NotAnIllusion :

I think the lights are just preparation for the inevitable eventuality of racing in the dark.

I think the same, even if we don't know when it's gonna happen.

A surprise? Would be a bit too much if you ask me.. we can't push this possibility away though

Quote from evans :

Yeah, that's a good possibility. I was getting worried when I saw the rear tyre of the GTI almost going off the rim.

Road cars have tyres which doesn't have too much air in them. That is normal of course. So take your moms car (if it has tyres with high sidewall) and put it into a powerslide during cornering (moms drive fwds mostly so that can take some handbraking ). Have a friend watching you from a side and i bet he'll tell you "damn those tyres looked like almost going off the rim!"
believe me, i've tryed it

note that low profile slicks look like they are handling the pressure without too much stress

Yes! Thats what I thought but just couldnt write it in english so it would have made any sense

It took me a while to express my thoughts in english too

Quote from Blackout :

Well, the pressure tries to lift the tire off the ground, the air would like to go under the tire (some of it). It lifts the tire litle bit, so it becomes lighter.


I dunno if this really happens but thats how I would think it would if it does

tyre alone would be neutral because the upper side of the tyre generates downforce and the lower side of it generates uplift which is equal to downforce
BUT
at the point in which tyre touches tarmac air particles have no way to go. They face an obstacle and since they have energy (which of course depends on the speed) they try to push it somewhere, in this case to lift it up a bit to make their way through.

I believe it's the way it works

Quote from AndroidXP :

but it looks like we even get many minor updates too - alteast they have enough material to reveal something every day.

we don't know the exact day on which this patch will be released, so it is hard to say how much material they actually have Still i just can't wait for the physics update and those little cute thingies added or fixed is making me even more happy
looking forward to it.. maybe i'll get an S2 license then

It has nothing to do with textures. Lighting has to be changed to get the efect of night imo.
