Peugeot 106 Rallye S1, 1995-1997, 1.3l NA 100bhp.
Corking little car

XFG is 16v, so slightly more power to be expected.

Same for Suzuki Swift from the early 90's.

This was my first real race and i liked it. Too bad it is over. A few laps before the end p8 looked possible but i screwed up which costed me a place and had an accident later which costed me again two places.

I would like to have the replay for the second grid/race to look at mistakes i made but i forgot to make one. Has anybody else made one?

For me the first was Rad Racer on the NES (with red/green 3d-glasses )

Of course it's an arcade game. I think all we're these days.

Maybe you can send ip's to the moderators so they can find the users behind it. It's dumb, but less technical people might fall for it.

1m 14.625s.

An upgrade for my pc is in the mail, should help because the only part i'm keeping is the case and the powersuply

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

Currently its the FBM, because I like close racing in single seaters. In the past it was the XFR, back in the demo my favourite car was the XFG.

For me it's FBM and XRG. I could have stayed demo for that carchoise

The XFR is fun too, for the real (BIG) GTR's my pc is to slow.

I think it looks better then the 2007-model. But function is more important then styling (just like by the Toyota Prius).

I thought real live cars. Bummer

Quote from Riders Motion :

Then I don't know why you wouldn't release it...

Because maybe the devvers don't agree?

Are we not to late for the end of year awards? We should be nominated for best team ever.

Maybe we could organize a team endurance driftrace. I say BF1 on FE Rallycross.

Poll: Endurance driftrace?
BF1 on FE Rallycross
XRT on skidpad

I want in too. This is the best team ever

Where do i sign up?

Quote from hiroshima guy :

You better be sorry for saying that. Btw those people who stay demo-ers for years and through developments are much more loyal than those who buy the game because of the Tweak

How are Demo-ers that get more cars (because you can change characteristics) for free loyal to the developers? What do they get from you?

First thing i noticed was it was almost all demo-ers that want to release it for the public and none demo-ers that do not want it released at all.

I agree with h3adbang3r here. Tweak could hurt LFS with new leaks and people not buying the game because they get cars with other characteristics for free.

Maybe something like this. It's 583 Euros = 425.003028 British pounds (if your prices are not to different)

Antec NSK4480B € 64,75 € 64,75
Club3D Geforce 8600 GTS 256MB DDR3 (PCI-e, 2x DVI) CGNX-GT... € 129,95 € 129,95
Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R € 94,- € 94,-
Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 € 149,- € 149,-
Kingston KVR800D2N5K2/2G € 37,96 € 37,96
Samsung SH-203N € 25,88 € 25,88
Samsung SpinPoint T166, 500GB (7200rpm, SATA II, 16MB, NCQ) € 82,- € 82,-

Quote from LFSn00b :

Ye, my XRT has 111111111bhp when it has my Calsonic skin on(made by Beefyman) and it goes like a ricer with fartcans!!1

Wow, you will rule THE DEMO COMES DRAG STRIP with that XRT.

Quote from xaotik :

How about introducing the Ab-based Demo? Where they have to do a certain amount of crunches per day. I can already see it - "stay fit with LFS" advertised by some not-so-eloquent and totally unknown body-builder on TV.

Or we could make them fight each other (bumfights). When they knockout an other demoplayer they get 15 minutes of S2 time.

Quote from Spangler_CZE :

If you want the XRT, get a licence first

Indeed. With an 12 pound S1 licence you have the XRT and extra tracks and cars. Other solution is to keep playing X.

Í think you stopped doing that because you are more relaxed and controlled now. People who just start their real live driving lessons drive like that.

Only thing that bothers me is my pulse thats sometimes hurts during races (rsi comes up sometimes )

Yeah patch Y rocks, patch X sucks

No, just kidding. Really enjoying trying to keep up with the AI on the new and improved South City Chicane.

Quote from Apoc112 :

niels, i can't speak for germans, but its certainly nothing i've ever heard of here... after a wiki search, i can only find that it's the dutch term for "consumption/tuberculosis", but sounds like its also used as an exclamation like "damn!"

odd that they would choose such a word, but it hardly seems like something that should be considered profain... there are plenty of things that i would consider offensive if used with that intent. for example, if you tell someone to go die in a fire, that's pretty harsh, but that doesn't mean "die" and "fire" should be filtered words.

It's not about what you find offensive. You don't even speak the language so it is not even possible you find that offensive.

The clutch doesn't get repairs. Maybe that's the reason why you could not leave. Damage display comes back when you start moving out of the pit (nothing new, it was that way before Y)

Isn't it possible to give the old hotlaps a different color (red for example) so everyone sees they are from an incompatible older version. When it does get beaten with a time in Y it could become black again (or they get overwritten with any time in Y, also slower times)
That way everone can deside for himselve what to do and others can still see if they can compare laptimes.

Quote from DarkTimes :

Simple fact is that the cars are now no longer as fast as they were, so in my opinion the old PBs are practically meaningless, and if the hotlaps are going then the PBs should go too!

Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the physics have changed that much since S2. In fact, I think there might only have been a single proper physics patch before this one, and that one only improved tyre physics and didn't really affect the overall performance of the cars over a single lap.

In real live rules and tracks change too, but they still compare them with older races (and then say why times have become slower or faster).

I red about it on a Dutch board on the 19th of august 2002. I played then with the mouse, liked it but could not get used to the the mouse and i did not have a wheel. So i stopped playing LFS.

4 years, 4 months and ten days later I bought a wheel and an S2 license. I wish i had thought of that sooner
