Me and my Mrs will be driving up on friday (not sure what time) but we plan to stay in a Hotel near Jasons for a couple of days and see the rest of Wales. So a one way trip is up for grabs but it's 60 miles in the wrong direction (so you will have to fill my 330ci with petrol if you want the ride).

There's maybe space for 2 in the back so let me know if anyones interested.

Edit: London City Airport is next to me if it makes flying easier...

Forward planning - I want one of you Karting fanatics in my team for sure! :smileyrai

Me and lisa might mix 2 in one and have a long weekend up there and see the valleys/sheep etc lol! i'll have the deposit no later than the 26th so (payday)

Quote from mcgas001 :

Hmm....I'm very tempted..

Yay!

I'm in Rudys team! (for the Karting that is)

I'm coming this year again seeing as last year was fun (even though we came second from last) :P

For this week only join The tour of the great Aston Raceway. Located in the middle of England, it has several longer and shorter configurations within a nice countryside setting full of forest and light hills. The 6 configurations this week include the one of the longest layouts in LFS with Aston Grand Prix and also some of the shorter circuits of Aston Cadet & Aston Club, with some altitude changes throughout the combos and a great chicane including Eau Rouge, there are ingredients to this great racetrack which should give you some great wheel to wheel battles. You will also notice the Aston Historic layout which can provide great racing in both the FO8 & BF1.

Next week we will see a combination of the Kyoto ring circuit which will bring these fast open wheel cars to the top of the rev range along the amazing Oval section of the ring. More to come soon...

100 Points rewarded for the race winner!

Please note: This server is just a personal project of mine to see if i can bring some racing life back into these incredible cars and not to take things too seriously. It's open to all and a max of 24 cars on grid should not cluster the track too much. Please feel free to check it out!

Thanks,
Pete

Have you tried downloading the latest driver from the Logitech website? The one that come with the wheel is probably out of date.

I had this wheel for almost 2 years without many problems. Just be careful of the 4 screws holding the wheel to the motor if you have the FFB set too high as they can come lose and you have to super glue them back.

I use nothing else but 64-bit. Works fine with me.

Quote from philipac :

Dont know if this has been Covered,

Buy why have Shift lights been taken away from Road cars?

Quite a few road cars now have Shift lights,

Weather it be for best MPG as to when to change up or down or when close to the Limiter but there still there,

Seams a Step back to me,

I quite like the no shift lights but some cars need to bounce of the limiter, you know when it goes dudududdudududud at 8500rpm or something. sorry for the lame explanation, it's too early for me

I'm quite happy we are getting all these little updates, Thanks LFS guys

Hey Guys,

Not sure if this is the right place but since i've had my new monitor (46" Samsung) there has been a bit of a glitch in the F9 tyre info. It seems the top part of the tyre wear indicator is overlapped with the tyre to road contact info. i'm using Z22 atm.

I've attached a pic to explain. It's not a massive problem but it is good to see how the tyres are wearing which i can't see now.

I'm using HDMI to DVI-D
Resolution is at 1920x1080 @ 60hertz

Hope it's an easy fix
Pete

Nope, I play everyday and don't worry about new patchs,cars,tracks etc etc. I just enjoy what i have now (Z20) and learn new stuff all the time.

Stress kills over 50% of people every year.. hahah

Quote from AndroidXP :

Congratulations, you just found out how transmissions work

(It's not a bug)

Lol! "If you can't find it, Grind it"

Imaginations run wild

lol multiple fingers eh? - I'll shut up now

I didn't say it was forbidden. but you are the only one able to finger with the site ATM.

We can look but we can't touch.

Edit: Reason why i said that was from reading posts about not having places to race... There are probably more than ever now!

This topic reminds me of my first girlfriend. She's gone but you don't wanna let go... :P

SO GET OVER IT PEOPLE!

CTRA HAS GONE! (She don't want you anymore)

Quote from JPeace :

i disagree strongly, i think CTRA got out of control with mass playing, crashing (not purposfully but due to people spinning and mass pile ups) etc.

I think that lfs is good with leagues etc, if leagues didnt exist, lfs would get hugly boring quickly. having said that, there are plenty of decent hosts, you just need to look a little and try it.

For once i agree with James (OMG)

I used to be addicted to CTRA SS Servers. Since it closed it has open the doors for many other types of racing for me - leagues/pickup racing/different combos etc.

It was a good system when it worked but highly addictive. Going cold turkey was a good thing tbh.

Quote from Bose321 :

My HD4850's have DVI output. My TV is HDMI, and When I connect it, I do hear sound. I have used that adapter that's included with the cards.
card>DVI-HDMI BLOCK>HDMI Cabel>TV

Lucky you! It's probably the adapter that makes it work somehow. The only sound i got was some clicking noises like a phone was too close to the speakers. but after i got the other audio cable all was fine. It all works just how i want it too

Quote from dadge :

doesn't HDMI also carry the audio signal?

Only HDMI to HDMI carries sound, HDMI to DVI doesn't

edited my post to say pc to tv.

What happens is that once you connect the HDMI cable to the TV from the PC, the TV thinks that it sould be receiving sound through the HDMI. but as the PC (VGA/DVI) don't carry sound, you have to set the TV to let it know that sound is coming from somewhere else.

With the samsung, you have to change the source name to DVI PC and then it knows to get sound from the 3.5mm port and not the HDMI.

Hope that makes sense to you now?

Quote from CELTIC100 :

Hi mate can you explain whats needed for audio from graphics card as i've just tried this, i'm running an ATI 3650 (which has built in audio) to an LG 46" screen.

Am I right in thinking only one of the two ATI DVI outputs gives out audio

Thanks Shaun

Well, at first i tried phono to 3.5mmjack cable and didn't work, then i got a 3.5 to 3.5jack cable and slotted into the DVI audio in on the back of the TV to the green slot at the back of the pc and viola it worked. I think you may have to set up the audio output in the pc control centre thingy...
