What if they open the door when you shout through the letterbox?

To summarise for people that can't be bothered to read.



**ONLY FOR THE LEADING TWO IN THE DRIVERS CHAMPIONSHIP**

OLD: Equal points? Number of wins is the deciding factor

NEW: Equal number of wins? Most points become deciding factor.



still a shit idea...

Quote from mkinnov8 :

a rule is a rule is a rule, which is a point which many many drivers who enter leagues fail to realise. You dont have to like the rules, just respect them. It's not your job to even question them, expecially within a race server, where your sole job - through choosing to be there - is to drive your car with respect to yourself and others on the track, following whichever dumb rules you agreed to follow by simply entering the series.

Sig'd.

I'd also like to note (being a member of the RC team tonight - "<Race Admin>") that I was,

A. impressed with the quality of racing in the first two races.

B. impressed by the patience and ability of the Race Control team to cope under pressure and,

C. Ashamed that race 3 was broadcasted. The commentary was biased and judgemental, the quality of driving was abysmal, with dangerous behaviour under the safety car, poor spacial awareness and a pathetic urge to make contact with anyone within a 200m radius. The only positive of the broadcast was the quality of the feed provided by Joe.

I strongly suggest every driver in this round re-reads the rules thoroughly, contemplate their own behaviour, not the actions of others, and return to the track for round three with a fresh attitude.

Remember, when any event is broadcasted you are representing Live for Speed, your teams, and yourselves to the sim racing community and the world. It's in your hands.

Mwahahahaha, where's Captain Slow?

Quote from Intrepid :

We understand the possibility that McLaren are sandbagging. if they are then f*&k they will be rapid!

The frustrating thing is the lack of analysis from he journos who travelled to Spain. All we have had is "Mclaren lack rear end grip" or "McLaren lack traction" which any half sharp engineer will tell you means jack sh1t.

The McLaren is the story of the winter so you would expect reporters to be able to tell what the car does under braking, turn in, mid corner, and exit. Also be able to tell you how this developed or changed over the days.

If I had gone I would be able to tell you every detail of what I interpret the car to be doing.

The funny thing is I am not that interesting in the racing. Come sunday morning \I probably won't even watch. The development, and learning process over the winter is FAR more educational, and valuable for me

Anyway I couldn't resist mocking this up for a laff

You forgot something....

I strongly agree with you. With all this talk of LFS losing its appeal and beginning to age badly. Now would be the time to say "look, we have a great amount of talent here that's being wasted. Let's utilize it."


However, can I suggest one way to moderate the volume of content.

Everyone gets the tools to create their own content. But they have to submit it for consideration. And only the best quality mods make it onto the multiplayer lists. For the rest of the community to use.

I believe the Renault team runs from two seperate locations. Read it in a RaceCar technologies magazine. Engines in one factory (france) and the chassis in the UK.

But alas, more pictures.....

Quote from 5haz :

Richards is what they need, but perhaps Honda are too behind development wise now for even him to turn things around.

If they hadnt got rid of him in the first place, Honda might have been more successful and wouldnt have ended up in such a bad way when the Honda company hit a crisis.

That is the most sense i've heard all day 5haz, I always thought that was their downfall.

+1 Quote-worthy.

I think america's camera industry requires some of the stimulus package....

You could get an underwater case if you have a camera already.

If not then you have the Olympus mju 850 sw or the 1030 sw. The 850 is 3m waterproof and can be dropped from 1.5m. And the 1030 is 10m waterproof and can be dropped from a height of 2m.

Pop into a local jessops store and take a look.
