Damn, could have been up for this, quite enjoy the MRT, trouble is 2 rounds clash with the Baby R , would it matter missing 2 rounds?, don't want to take a slot away from someone who would run all rounds.

Not at all, and it would be a pleasure to have you race with us Dan.

By entering, you agree to follow the series regulations, which consist of:

"Drive Cleanly with respect to all other drivers on the track at all times."

No one likes to crash, to be run off track or be put to the back.. But if you drive uncleanly, we will put you to the back. Simple as that.

You can get the current entry list from this page. We dont require you to be a member of our forums, but if you'd like to reply to threads and discussion there (which is where we will post all official information and results), you will have to register to post. It takes like.. 5 minutes if that.

Results and Standings are published via RaceSIM.co.uk.

See you on track!

Just a small note. There are still a lot of Formula500 events on the Race Calendar.. Which could be removed. I can only edit them, but not delete.

Cheers.

Correct. As long as you are with 500Servers, the price you pay now while the 50% offer is on, is the price you will pay for the duration of time you decide to rent the server for.

Franky doesnt do thinks by (less than) half's

sorry.. but no.

Nice once again Franky .

Yet another reason to stop bothering. Sorry for taking your time Sam.

Surely you mean Willing to learn and practice hard. Good luck with your search, but some free advice, dont go for the teams which offer you a place. Pick a team you wish to join, join them on track for a few weeks (3-4 usually good amount), get to know them and develop a relationship.

Then apply to join them, and only them. A targeted approach will normally bring more satisfaction to yourself, and will allow the targeted team to see what they are getting.

Just basically lost interest for a while. General life and other releases occupy me.

Quote from Victor :

ok done all that. And if you delete the threads that you no longer need, and then let me know I will move the deleted thread out of your sight.

Thank you.. Deleted the threads I dont need, thank you for your patience.

Victor,

A little housekeeping if I may for the Formula500 Subforums..

Can you please remove the Formula500 Banner from rotation, it is no longer needed, the series failed to attract enough drivers to be considered viable.

The Formula500 Subforum, could that please be renamed to "RaceSIM" and a link to its website be added to the description "http://www.racesim.co.uk".

The FBM Demo Series Subforum is no longer needed.

The FBM S2 Series Forum is to stay, as it is still a running league, now under RaceSIM.co.uk

The Threads in the main Formula500 Forum are no longer relevant.. I dont know what can be done with them.

Thanks for your time and sorry to cause work.

I knew there was a reason you do what you do , cheers franky.

Ok, now im the noob..

Im trying to configure a server to run in the Demo for Sunday's start of my Formula500 FBM Demo League..

I cannot get a server to show in the demo.. How do I do it? since things changed, im really not that sure.

I believe the dedicated server to be Version Y, and my personal client is Y19.. does that matter?

If so, what was the last Client version that was compatable with Dedi Y?

Thanks for the info

Look forwared to all the things still yet to come that we dont know about!

Hi victor,

When possible, could you please create two subforums of the Formula500 forum named:

'FBM Demo Series' & 'FBM S2 Series'

Thank you in advance.

What is new to show? I didn't think the posting of test patches was usual practice for the LFS website. Most of the updates come with the release of a new S2 Patch.

and you got that from?

Quote from th84 :

Why was there not all the fuss about "banger racing" servers? Or what about all the "cops n robbers" servers that used to be around? Neither one of those two examples qualify as "racing" (imo). I just dont see what the big deal is. These "cruisers" have bought and paid for their license's/servers just like everyone else has, who am I to decide how they go about using it. Do you "racers" not want to support the devs and see them prosper from this great game that they have created for us? Im pretty sure that the "cruisers" have paid the same price for their licenses that the "racers" have.

So it is ok for the "big teams" to have a cruise sever or two, but for everyone else it is stupid? Did I read that right, or am I confused?

As far as this forum goes, give the crusiers their own section of the forum...problem solved.

P.S. I hate cruise servers too, which is why I dont join them.

Good post, which brings me on to this.. Im sure if the LFS dev's wanted crusing to be a part of LFS they would have created a seperate mode for it.. (worries me slightly that they put a cruise filter/option into the dedi). But yes, you are right, its their server and licence etc etc.. but LFS is a Racing Simulator, not so much a driving simulator. The thing is, LFS is about the most adaptable, which is why these things have sprouted up here..

But people are starting to come to the forums to ask about LFS and the Crusing Simulation.. "is it part of the game", "is it included with the S2 licence"..

I dont hate the servers, nor the idea totally, its just there is a lot of them now, and a lot more requests for them, and it doesnt appear to be settling down any.

+1 for a seperate section.

The sheer amount of people requesting "insim cruise" servers on their lfs servers is getting rather silly. If only there was a filter for the forums filtering out all the cruise server talk!

Quote from thisnameistaken :

Personally I don't see the appeal of dual-class competitions in LFS - I'd rather have a whole grid of cars that can compete with eachother.

Me neither, but I wanted to try it so ive done the GFC with the FOX and FO8 on track together, and now this season the GTTC with the TBO's and GTR's which im really enjoying.

The LX series is titled as so as it uses both the LX4 and the LX6. There are three races per session, one LX4 race, one LX6 Race (unrestricted) and then one all together race, were the LX6 is restricted slightly. Not to match speeds exactly, but to give the podium a change at not holding three LX6 drivers each race.

There are three Championship tables also. One LX4 class, one LX6 class and one Overall Championship for both classes.

If there are two triangles on a shelf. Both the same, but one has dirt all over it and one is nice and new, which one are you going to choose?

If the LX6 is offered unrestricted, and a miricle happens and there are 16 LX6 entries.. is anyone going to choose the LX4?

Er, cheers for that. "had a lot going for you, but I'm not sure anymore"...

On Second thought. Thanks for taking the time to comment, if nothing else, its given the thread some activity.

Ah now I never said restricted to get almost the same lap times.. I said

Quote :

The restriction is to make the gap between the two classes less. To equal things out. To give perhaps a reason for people to want to try the LX4.

.

The league scene for LiveForSpeed is well over saturated at the moment, drivers are very much spoilt for choice.

What about them?

I guess there is some confusion, well there is indeed for me! Two different cars, both LX's LX4 and LX6 - different specifcation of cars, on track together at the same time.. therefore duel class racing.

I cant understand that Blackbird. I cant understand how an entirly different car can be in the same class as another? Even if restricted.

The title of Duel Class Racing.. is a forum topic title, the series title is RaceSIM LX EuroSeries. There are of course two different tables for the championship, and a third for the mixed races.

The LXO cup.. yes, it looks good, but the entry list isnt full, and there were many more asking for LX leagues.. so where the hell are you all?
