Quote from tristancliffe :High.

I want to go somewhere else next time. Northampton is good cos it's sort of in the middle, but maybe we should go more north next year (or more south ).


Middle....pfft! Try driving 9.5 hours!

Just kidding, tbh it is the most central considering that people from europe might also want to come.

Out of curiosity I will look into Knockhill Ive heard mixed reports and im not even sure if they have good twin engine karts. However, it is obviously way too far out the way for you folks!

Just for once can we NOT turn this into an anti-American thread. It seems that anytime anyone mentions America they get on the good-old bandwagon and start abusing them.

This celebration is for the heritage of America and is celebrated by US citizens who have no real say about world affairs.

Well, I'm not American.....but Happy Independence Day to you yanks

Just out of curiosity, what traditions are held on this day, i.e. specific fancy meals? (Yes I am hungry)

I know what its about, just not what you do! Time to check Wikipedia....

edit: Well it mentions BBQs, so I would love to join in

I stay like 10miles from where Jim Clark was born

It must be the country roads round here that he trained on. There is an awesome road and hairpin just after you pass through Kilmany (where he was born), and even more great roads around that area. I like to go for a spin round them when I can

Quote from thisnameistaken :Ooh, config files! Er...

I've been asking for this for ages... How about a config file for the HUD element display options?

I thought if we could write a text file that contained stuff like X and Y position, and scale, for each element, then everybody would be able to stick the mini-map, the lap counter, timing, virt mirrors, etc. anywhere they like and as big as they like. It would mean no more moaning about text spam in the way of the map or the virtual start lights, allow those who sometimes like to race in SHIFT+F mode to set up a more practical compromise that they might use all the time, and so on.

Would this be a swine to do?

Edit: Yes I realise this isn't the same as the sort of macro creation thing we're talking about above, but still...

A truely custom HUD is one of the things I would really lile. It meant more to me before I switched to cockpit cam, but I would still like the ability to tweak the display.

im a laydeeeeeee!

Back on topic: I guess you will probably never get away from it in some cases, i.e. with young chaps on a random server who have never seen you before.

However, as has been said the moment soon wears off and I am pretty sure all of the racers on this forum wouldn't give you a hard time.

Unfortunately online there is always that initial 'ooh! its a gurl' factor.

Quote from hackerx :We meant Shift+S while *spectating*.

Yes that has been bugging me too! Im sure it used to work before as I always still try to do it :doh:

Obviously it doesn't work if you haven't got the right car for the track selected. Which brings another thought. If you join a server using different cars and you are spectating, when you want to join could you make it default to one of the allowed vehicles? Especially if it is a single car server!

Not one of these threads................again!

I don't think the devs have any intentions of changing anything. If there was anything wrong with the current content im sure they would have noticed and changed it by now.

IIRC was that not just an early aero test by Scawen?

Or is it coincidentaly a similar design to the real MRT6?

No you have one account and one username. You can have several drivers names setup in-game so you can switch between them, but they still register with the same account name on LFS World to store your PBs.

So you cannot loose your account PBs or details from LFS. They are stored on LFS World. What you have lost sounds like your driver/config from in-game.

Quote from P5YcHoM4N :That's what I'm like, as such I have a weird playlist. But because I'm like that it gets me into trouble. She plays a song thinking I'll like it, and it sounds good then I get "Aren't the lyrics great". Turns out I'm not allowed to listen to music unless I listen to the lyrics

Exactly. 9 out of 10 times I don't have a clue what the lyrics are to my favourite song, but I know I like it!

I really like the instrumental side of this tune as well. In fact probably more so than the lyrics TBH I'm not much of a lyrics person, I just know a good tune when I hear it.

I wander lonely streets
Behind where the old Thames does flow
And in every face I meet
Reminds me of what I have run from

In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you two will understand

I've got to tell you my tale
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand

I've got to tell you my tale
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
These feelings should not be in the man

In every child, in every eye
In every sky, above my head
I hope that I know
So come with me in bed
Because it's you and me, we're history
There ain't nothing left to say
When I will get you alone

Maybe we could find a room
Where we could see what we should do
Maybe you know it's true
Living with me is like keeping a fool<

In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you know that I am me so come on
I'm thinking about history
And I'm living for history
And I think you know about me
Cause I am

And one and one is two
But three is company
When you're thinking about the things you do
And you're thinking about the things you do
I want to tell you my tale
How I fell in love and jumped out on my bail
I hope you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
In every sky, in every kiss
There's something that I might have missed

Why am I going to
A place that now belongs to you
But you were weak and so was I
Let's pick it up, let's even try
To live today, so why not smile
Don't dream away your life 'Cause it is mine
Is that a crime (repeat) this life is mine
The bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
I've got a skin full of dope
