Quote from Boris Lozac :

Offcourse, all Logitech wheels work, i drove GT5p and GT Time Trial with my Momo, but the game doesn't see all the buttons, i can't look left/right etc.. so i sold it and bought DFGT.

Interesting, now I'm actually very serious about the PS3/GT5 bundle!

Quote from PMD9409 :

+1. I've been to Daytona and Talladega, and got to stand on the apron in the corner at Daytona. Nothing can compare, its just awesome.

I find giant ovals like 'Dega and Daytona strangely fascinating, the speed that those guys whip around - I'm baffled to how people scream "No skill!".

Quote from Boris Lozac :

Well my PS3 and PC are on the same table and monitor..

Lucky thing. I could do that but, I'd probably run out of plugs - also, does the G25 with with the PS3 and GT5?

Quote from Boris Lozac :

What the hell does GT5 has to do with other console games Just imagine it's S3

Well I was in massive anticipation for Forza 3, I got it - loved it, put it down one day and never went back to it. Its just effort - I love being on the PC and sitting on ventrilo with my mates, sitting and chatting is probably more fun than sitting and playing on a console, even with stuff like Xbox live.

Quote from Matrixi :

Simple.

I'm such an automotive dunce. It took me 5 minutes of drawing circles on paint to see if that cog system would actually work.

I'm actually slightly considering selling my Xbox and getting a PS3 just for this game - but I know i'd get bored of it after a short while as I do with all console games. Why can it not be on PC!

Quote from UncleBenny :

Haha, running solo at Talladega is one of the most boring things imaginable.

Talladega is a nice track just to drive around anyway, having seen all of the cheesy movies. Still can't get over how crazy the banking is!

My first experience in the big circle cars!

Due to a few crashes around me I had the entire run solo, but 21st - 3rd isn't that bad, surely.

Not cool bro.

Well my ex told me that she still loves me last night, but she's all the way on the other side of the country at uni so I've no idea what to do about it.

Started an MX5 race yesterday with high hopes, my race pace is below the 1s mark, which was a lot faster than everyone's qualifying times, so I was in with a good shot of a good result. On the second lap I'd passed about 3 cars easily, flying along towards the front pack - and my game + computer totally freeze up going down the straight side by side with another car.

CRAP.

I came across this made by MP3Astra - what a legend!

Quote from count.bazley :

For the official iRacing series?

In the very simplest terms:

Best 8 of 12 weeks count.

For each week the average score of your top 50% races is your points total.

The points earned in each race are Strength of Field (average iRating of entire field) divided by 16.

So its not strictly "Whoever races the most - wins" ?

I've always wondered - how are the series points calculated? As in, what stipulates who comes 1st, 2nd..etc at the end of a season?

Aha! Changing the pre rendered frames to 1 didn't do much, but setting my game to Fullscreen worked a treat. Thanks for the help guys!

Quote from funRacer[83] :

maybe fps issues?

Constantly capped to 101, I don't stare at it as I drive but i've never seen it below that!

I took a random plunge and bought the Williams earlier, joined in a few hosted sessions and I can that I love it! There's a real sense of knowing when your on the edge (and when your just about to cross it).

My only problem with iRacing at the moment is a slight hint of steering input lag, Its probably about 0.2 seconds at a random guess, but its no where near LFS's practically instant response time - anyone know how to get rid of this in iRacing? Its more noticable if i do a slalom type swerve motion with the wheel, there's definately a delay there, it makes saving slides and predicting things the way I do on LFS so easily, almost impossible at times. It just makes all the cars feel a bit... "Sloppy", with LFS you feel like your part of the car (without sounding too lertsy), its like your 'One' with the pixel beast.

Anyway, enough with the blabbing.

F1 = good
Steering Lag = bad

Had a great hosted session this morning - few LFS racers on there I saw.. MX5/Solstice around Lime Rock is a brilliant combo, MX5's are utterly addictive.

I would have never thought that LFSForum would be a pulling tactic, nice job Becky.

RBR Feels fast because your driving down tiny roads with in many cases walls of trees at either side, on a wide track you don't get this effect.

Your driving a slow car.

Well, I'm just completely and utterly stumped as to what to do.

After negotiations (similar to negotiating with a terrorist) ended with an unhappy ending with the girl of my dreams, another lady who used to quite like me popped up and provided support in an excellent way. She's really nice and sweet, but she's really loud sometimes which kind of goes against my quiet personality completely... I'm not sure if it was just her 'support' that's making me like her, but I just can't decide whether I actually like the girl or not. Grr



The one in the middle ^ (yes, that is blue hair :nol2:)

Quote from RMachucaA :

^ nice!

I started from pitlane, 10 seconds behind last place :\, wheel wasnt calibrated :\

Christ, I thought my laptime was nearly perfect! You using the default setup?

Just had a cracking Mazda race, spun out right behind the leader about 9 laps in, then crawled it back to finish 1.1 seconds adrift.

Quite proud of my fast lap though! Especially in a field full of A+ drivers.

Oh I see, you get to choose who dies just because YOU don't like them?

I'm not sure how many people do actually enjoy klutch's posts.... I'm quite suprised he's not been banned many times considering the stuff other people have been banned for before.

If your hosting do a standard track like Laguna or Lime Rock, just so everyone can race.
