I never liked the RaceAbout much, it doesnt feel stable at all.
Like someone said before, it steers like a boat. Hence why I call the Race-A-Boat.

was that me?


(probably not.)

screw stupid bimmer. i just want a moto-gp level race bike and maybe a nice 600CC sportbike. THAT would make this a ultimate driving simulator.

and an LMP for 24-hr races ^_^

it's not a tip of the hat to anybody. it's a realism thing. here's some shots of the cockpit of a ferrari f1:

as you can see, just above the FIA sticker theres a ferrari manufacturing plate thing (i don't know what its called.)

oh shit... i think maybe intel set this up... remember the commercial that LFS was featured on a little while ago by intel? i think that maybe intel actually had something to do with this little surprise

now belmont milds are the best. go canada.

tits? what?

oooh hey, a fellow ontarian. where you from?

essentially, yes.

do not heel and toe, as it defeats the whole purpose.

i haven't checked your replays, but yes, tires get hot very quickly, especially if you're using supers. in later lessons sam will be instructing how to drift conservatively.

Here's a link to the Clownpaint website where you can grab replays and other resources from [RTDC]:

well, he DID tell you not to click it...

yes, i do take the blame for lack of organization. thats why this thread is up, so i can make things better please keep posting

angry angel:

i am planning to have demo replays created so that you guys can study from the 'tapes' so to speak, then practice. then when DES come around, you guys will know what you're doing, and we will essentially be there to give you pointers to improve further. it depends on the level of commitment present within the group. our organisation was low indeed, and that will be corrected.

tbh, i was expecting like 10-15 people that signed up, not fifty billion in one session!

TBH, i was hoping that there would be a higher level of maturity... but i guess it runs away when boredom sets in.

Until the westfield seight was brought up, which the Lx cars clearly are, I though they matched the panoz roadster pretty well.

basically it's easier to create oversteer when understeering, rather than trying to create understeer when oversteering.

it's easier to take the toothpaste out of the tube than it is to put the toothpaste in the tube.

this weekend also happens to be round 1 for D1GP

Quote from AtomAnt :

Toronto police allege a teenage street race that went horribly wrong is behind a taxi driver's death.
According to police, two 18-year-olds were racing on Mount Pleasant Road in their parents' Mercedes-Benzes. The luxury cars allegedly hit speeds of up to 140 kilometres per hour in an area where the posted speed limit is 50 km/h.
The accident happened about 10:20 p.m. when one car collided with the cab as it made a left turn near an intersection with St. Clair Avenue. The collision crushed the taxi against a pole.
The driver of the vehicle involved in the crash ended up with a few scratches, while his friend fled the scene.
Tahir Khan, a cab driver and 46-year-old Pakistani man who has lived in Canada for six years, died instantly.
Wednesday, friends and other taxi drivers mourned the loss of Khan. He supported his wife and children, who still live in Pakistan.
"He was planning to go back to Pakistan pretty soon because he got the call from Pakistan that his mom was sick," Munir Ahmad, a friend, told CTV Toronto. "He was a very good guy, honest and hard-working."
Friends also said Khan, who lived in Scarborough with a friend, was set to receive Canadian citizenship on Jan. 27, at which time he planned to begin taking steps to bring his family over from Pakistan.
Alexander Ryazanov, 18, of Toronto, has been charged with criminal negligence causing death.
Wang-Piao Dumani Ross, 18, also of Toronto, is charged with criminal negligence causing death and failing to stop after an accident causing death.
On Wednesday both men appeared in court, where bail hearings were scheduled for Friday and Monday. They are expected to remain in jail until the hearings.
CTV Toronto's Desmond Brown reported that the two young men charged in Khan's death come from a privileged upbringing. Both are graduates of the prestigious St. Andrew's College in Aurora.
Investigators found a copy of the video game Need For Speed in one of the cars. The game involves street racing, drag racing and pursuit racing, where players attempt to evade police.
The discovery prompted police to point out the difference between the digital world, and reality.
"A game is a game," Toronto Police's Det. Paul Lobsinger told CTV Toronto. "And when you get behind the wheel of a car it's not a game anymore. And when something tragic happens in a huge crash with a lot of smoke, there is no reset button. You can't start over with a new car and a new life."
In 2002, two Vancouver men were convicted of criminal negligence causing death after their street race left a woman dead. In what was described as a legal first, both drivers were convicted, even though only one of them hit the woman.
Before the Liberal government fell in November, it introduced legislation to curb the rising street racing problem. The new law would have required judges to revoke the licenence of anyone convicted of street racing.
The bill failed to pass into law before the government fell, however.

do you live in toronto?

well, that is somewhat true to life, as the D1-Spec SE3P (RX-8 to all you other non-import heads) by JIC can actually be easily re-tuned at the track for time attack, and vice versa.
