LOL... europarty...

Ohio State!

OH!

It maybe time for some petroleum jelly...

Cheers!

That's what I was afraid of. I also have a dial-up account, I just wanted to make sure.
Thanks Zolt

Does anyone know of a way to test latency to a server. I have a satellite connection, and am told latency can be as high as 0.5 seconds. Is there a utility that I can run to test what it actually is to any given server? My pings are outrageous, 500 to over 1000ms when I list the servers, but when I go into one I don't see any time difference while I spectate. I haven't tried to race online with it yet.

race length: 3+ hours
car classes: multiple classes
start procedure: rolling
full course yellows w/safety car: yes
car types: race
qualifying: timed session
car skins: team skins, series number plates
points system: every position gets some points

When will the next season start?

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

We'll definitely consider it, but shouldn't those second half teams be looking to improve rather than be looking for an easier podium? That's kind of the goal of competitive racing, no?

Yeah I hear ya, that's an all too common argument for not adding more classes in LFS. I just thought it would get us one step closer to an "AMLS like" event, that's all I meant. Then we'd be set for when we get our Prototype cars.

Personally, I'd rather the lead car hold the pace and do without the pit limiter. Folks like to throttle up to scrub the tires during these laps.

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

I think we definitely have a dedicated field of drivers, but it is still relatively small, and to divide that field in half would reduce the competition by quite a lot for both halves. I don't really see it being worth it at this stage in the game.

Think about it this way. Currently, only half of the field competes for the podium as it is. With the same number of cars being split into two classes, the latter half of our current field could be competing for a podium in their class. The number of cars/traffic would be the same and add a bit more challenge.

LOL,

I know old.

Stu isn't old.

I'd give my left nut to be his age!

LOTF guys, don't post here if your BP is > 140/90!

I got a question

Well done. Thanks for a fine finish.

I can't believe it's been five months of this that I missed. Time to try n get that dial-up going.

Grats CoRe! I'd toot my horn for ya too, but I think there is beer in it.

F'n beautiful race 'hicup' :drunk: even the dog loved it 'burp'

Quote from birder :

The IGTC is either serious or a bit of fun, if its serious and you want to attract all the big teams back you need to sort this out.

IMO next season, a car that causes a safety car, should get a stop and go.

Does anyone have a first stint replay they can share?

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

Especially since the car would have had to run the entire lap at reduced speed and been an obstacle for others.

Like other last place cars...

Good Luck everyone!

I sure miss this, but I'll be watching!

Heading into Saturdays' 8th and final round of the International GT Championship, Land Of The Free Racing sits second in the standings and looks forward to a strong finish in this inaugural event.

Good Luck team!

Lets try to keep the thread clean this bump, OK guys?

No hacky-sack for me but a good game of Frisbee golf is good for a day like this.

8:17 am... today, my 47th birthday, lost most of my hair (hair to the middle of your back doesn't look so cool when your part is 5" wide) But I am rollin' a wake-n-bake right now, soon I'll be buzzed like my hair...

Here is ours. Use the background or another if needed.

Hey all, I stopped by to vote on this and the other poll. Still no access from my new home yet. I should be back around in the next few weeks.

See ya soon

We have the server set to save replays. I can forward both the qualy and race to whomever, just let me know.
