I really don't get the idea of making tracks 'the check out new tracks and test setups'. How is this track different to Aston or Blackwood??? How can you make a setup in Monaco for Nordschleife????

Just make a Bathurst style track then - up and down with a big height difference. Something like 100 meters would be brutal.

Damn. No point in auto clutch if there's no blip. Autoclutch reeks havoc on blipping. it's too fast and it's hard to blip and not fire the car forwards while braking.

Here's an idea! Why don't we get a fast car, that can actually corner at the smidgen of the normal racing speed? Would be fun, wouldn't it?

So it's only a problem with starts? What about at pitting? MoE 24 hours would be nice then About 25 stops in the whole race.

Won't we just start the qualification and after everybody has done a single flying lap, we end the qually? Or will we do it solo?

That would be good for a start IMO. It's 2 seconds off the WR. Try to get another half a second off. And if you don't have a setup, http://setupfield.teaminferno. ... ar_id=29&p_version=S2 <- one of these witht he cambers switched would prolly be a good start.

Quote from Crommi :Prototype might be good addition since we don't currently have any car for that class, but my only concern is that we soon have 5th single-seater in next patch and aren't those pretty much the same in terms of handling and performance, open-wheeler or not?

Similiar problem with 4-door touringcars, we already have multiple GTR cars with different layouts to choose from. As for big V8 car, great for ovals or wide tracks with smooth sweeping bends, but driving that kind of thing 20laps through Southcity sounds more like torture than fun. I'd rather poke myself in the eye with a screwdriver.

As for prototypes (LMP style), they are MUCH heavier than single seaters and are slightly slower than F1 (depends on the era, the Group C was crazy, hitting 400 kph before the chicanes on Mulssane straight). They might behave simmilarly but they are made for endurance racing. MoE guys would love them i think

As for the GTRs, we could still use something with the engine in the middle and an N/A FR. SOmething like the M3 GTR. It's a bit underpowered but it would be imaginary so who cares V10s and V12 would be too powerfull but put a V10/12 midship in the mix (MC12 lookalike) and you can have a V12 FR too. Togheter with the FZR Turbo

Some normal ones for pickup races and some long ones for endurance racing. For pickup racing long ones really suck. But racing for 3 hours on Blackwood or Kyoto GP is a totally different thing, especially with 20+ cars in 2 classes. Blackwood is just so packed, if you're in a GT2 car, you're being lapped constantly. This is not so on long tracks as the field spreads out a lot more. It also helps if the tracks are wide since that makes more space for manouvers but narrow tracks are much mroe enjoyable in slower cars (Westhill is actually quite boring in GT2s - you must brake for T2, just slightly though, T4, again, slightly, the same story for the chicane, all of them are cleared in 4th gear, then the second chicane is 2nd and 3rd gear, the last turn is 2nd gear again. Most of the circuit is done flatout.).

Quote from March Hare :Heavy brute with that rumble of a big American V8. Who cares if it can't turn!

+1 But only if they get the sound right.

Actually, i do. If you want old school 90s american touring cars, i wote for the Audi 90 IMSA GTO.

Do you even get the intention of GTRs? They are pure racing cars. Made for endurance racing. And for that they are unbeatable. Well, UFR and XFR aren't ideal for endu racing but it's managable. Trust me.

The team boss is a good idea na di'm usre it would be used in LFS GT and especially in Masters of Endurance.

Really don't see how would i enjoy ging left in an 800 bhp car... Oh well, different people like different things. More touring cars i say!

Would it be possible to have 2 different models for each car, one with say 5000 polygons and the other with 10k and an option setting to use either one? For us with better PC ofcourse. But models are hardcoded into the .exe, right?

Suggested it on our IRC channel, but practically nobody saw it. So...

For Season 4, i suggest that LFS GT adopts MoE's classes (whatever it will be) and set the dates a week before MoE races, not a week later. That way we would get more GT2 entries and more entries overall since MoE teams could use LFS GT as a 'short' practise for the MoE race. What do you think? maybe post it in the MoE section to see if there would be interest among the current teams?

You just successfully made LFS very cheap. 1 pound is about 1.4 to 1.5 euros. And it's actually 12 pounds per stage. Think about that :P

I don't know how it will go. Kalle has taken a break from LFS and most of us remaining active n1 racers are currently devoted to LFS GT. We have so far done 2 races witht he 3rd of the 6 coming on this weekend. To be honest, i really don't see this league anytime soon unless Kalle returns.

I love how the graphics look, don't get me wrong. They look very very nice with AA and AF. But still we could have loads of candy. I won't go into a DX ver. argument because i have no clue about it, just don't make it DX10. I don't want to run Vista. But bliding sunlight for example would be nice. Working headlights will be needed too for night mode (comes in S3). And so on.
