Quote from funnybone2 :what a coencindence (spelling?)

What the?? A Yaris is not V6. It's a straight 4. I have NO idea why you'd want a V6 with 85 bhp. A V6 would be useful only at 200+ BHP for diesels... Otherwise it's just too complicated.

Quote from funnybone2 : A 3.8l V8 twin Turbo with that lag thingy that redlines at 18,000 rpm turbos kick in at 15,000rpm 500+ hp when turbos kick in!illepall im a speed freak! and like a Diesel V6 for the xfg like 85hp and 180 ft/lb of TQ and a 10,000 hp top fuel dragster engine!

I drive a 1.4 diesel Yaris in my driving lessons. 90 bhp...

Quote from Fischfix :when you look at fuel consumption, the fzr uses 1/3 more fuel when flat out (oval: fzr 1,2 -1,3 xrr 0,9-1.0) which is the disadvantage of the fzr on longer races. but as most of the lfs races are withouth pitstrategy at all, the fzr would win in most of the cases.

but if you have longer races with the need of pitstops, it can be handy to drive the xrr which might do pit in one time less then fzr...

i don't think a leveling is needed OR that serverside max-fuel option would be handy to level it out on shorter races.

to level out even the fxr with the others you probably need much more HP in that car. allthough the fxr has other advantages, not top speed but with handling AND damage. this sucker is massive as a tank...

But in a normal race an FXR or XRR uses the tires well before the fuel tank. We were doing LFS GT on blackwood (3 hours) and had to pit on every 45 minutes due to the tires. We used about 75% of the tank by then i think. FZRs could just use the whole tank.

Quote from mrodgers :Remember folks, just because the day will arrive that S2 is deemed "finished" doesn't mean that S3 will be "out" the following day. The day that S2 is finished is when the coding for S3 will start (I would believe some stuff is coded here and there now as Scawen comes up with ideas he can't risk forgetting about). So, even when S2 is "finished", I imagine it will still be some time before anything with S3 will be released.

Why worry about it anyways. Just enjoy what we have now.

When S2 will be finished, we will get updtes for it. Remember, last S1 patch was H. After that (okay, maybe before, we don't know that) S2 was started.

Variable geometry has been in diesel turbines for quite a while. Petrol engines have a too hot exhaust, that's why variable geometry is hard to make work there. Racing cars would prolly have more heavy duty turbos which more or less goes against variable geometry as that is a sophisticated, 'gentle' ttechnology. For a GTR that's supposed to do endurance races, you want beefy, manly and strong components.

AFAIk you ahve to upload it in 1024^2 (because it's 'the standard') and it resizes it to 512x512.

There we go. I had lots of fun. Crash on the FE Green chicane twice, lap 4 (had to pit) and lap 5 i think - back to back We had a classical set of aliens in the 6es, hannu and Blackman, though Devil in the 4 seemed to have some problems. Looks like 2 crashes (one in qually and one in the race).

RTS is in!!!

Standard team now.

LX4: Primož Resman (Primoz)
LX6: Hannu Pinola (hannu)

For that we'd need engine/turbo damage model. Run the boost at full al the time, your turbo blows up. SO you'd need to find the right balance.

LFS Tweak would be very fun to have. Too bad all the cars can't be edited... Can you say FZR Turbo??? :> And i'm aching to see some 'new content' in LFS; even if it is S1 and old. It just the idea of 'what if'... Though, trying out rTractor with V8Supercars and Gallardo challenge, i must say i'm VERY happy LFS doesn't get mods. If it does get them, make it as tricky as RBR (which is modded through holes). That way only THE MOST persistent modders will try and make add on content which is 99% guaranteed to be very good.

Voted for the winning options too. And i also like Kev's idea too. The +10 for showing up is a bit much though IMO. That would be +90 points for me (okay, still have 2 races to do :P) which would give me almost 200 points in the end.

I can see you're a Honda fan... Well, a JGTC NSX knockoff would be nice, just to have an MR GTR. We have the raceabout that's MR, but NSX's chassis was tuned by Senna...

Quote from shaGuar :If someone takes contact to Ariel. There would be a chance for there accept.
It would increase there popularity a little :P
But maybe it would be to similar to LX6 ?

Tristan did that, nobody replied to the emails and they didn't want to talk vis phone.

FZR is over tired. A turbo version would be all good with these, the current one should have smaller tires (which would even out the class).

Countles requests for Silvias, XRT is quite close to them so it'd be more or less pointless... Editing cars should stay in Need for Speed series, thankyouplease.

Quote from Gimpster :In a racing car, the gage cluster is designed to include all the needed gages to monitor the condition of the engine. There are better places to put gages then on the I-Piller. Clustering them in the center console makes more sense anyways as I have no need for the clock or radio there.

I sign under this post. Removing the radio, A/C controls and stuff leaves HEAVES of space for all the gauges you'll ever need. Pillar ones are just rice. I'd rather gave them screwed on top of the dash in the centre, showing the wires, screws, everything, just a U shaped metal bracket for it. Still better than this and it's straight to the point AND doesn't obstruct visibility nearly as much as a pillar one. If you think the pillar one doesn't, take the FXO or FXR and drive it around the city. Try to nail the apex without seeing it...

Double hairin to make it extra slow? :> Or we could just tear down the wall :P

FZ50 supercarged sounds weird. it has a flat engine which is quite unfriendly to superchargers. Actually, mostly V engines are friendly because you just slap in ontop. I'd prefer a turbo FZ, it's be more Porsche like

Quote from WCBW_Driftkid :something front rear with decent weight balance and abit more power and SOME HALF DECENT STEERING LOCK and that alone would keep 90% happy but hay if you onley wanna keep me happy just make a ae86 :P

Okay, does anyone have a jibberish to english dictionary?

Wow, that one looks really nice. Very fast too. If it was longer, it'd be a blast in the GTRs.

EDIT: And it has quite a few passing opprotunities for the lenght too. The hairpin, the 90° onto the cadet part, the hairpin before the S/F, especially in the reverse config (imagine roaring down to the braking area full speed )

It's best to shift the FXR (and FXO) at about 7k rpm and the LX4 at about 8k. Well below the redline.

Dennis didn't seem to lag out, it was out of the blue, no red bars so i think he clciked leave :P He also pitted just before that.
