Although you want a league, it might be worth checking out the Dead Men Racing server. 1 hour races every thursday evening from 8pm (qualifying). Car and track changes each week and they keep a record of positions/points scored on the website.....so more of an unofficial league. Turn up on there server during the week, they are usually practicing! And ask them about it.

Place the two attched files in the Lfs/setups folder, should have a set for both the XRG and XFG for keyboard. May need to turn the steering angle down to about 12-16 degrees though.

Quote from danthebangerboy :
It is also the non collision aspect that makes the old ford pinto engine a favourite for quite a few oval motorsports over here, break a timing belt, oh well never mind, pits, re-time the engine up, new belt on, go again!

Aye, one great thing about the 2.0 pinto. Never have to worry about bent valves!

Not looking that great for 10mb is it?

Reckon I can see your house from the GF's roof if I had binoculars. Count yourself lucky having it through cable. Theirs is sent via radio waves to upware!

I must admit that speed distribution can be dodgy with everyone though. for example, myself, the man over the road (who works for virgin) and my friend on road away all use virgin media 10mb. My max D/l is usualy between 200-600kbs depending on the time of day. Guy over the road 800+, mate a road away 1000+ kbs! I'd like to see them explain that one!

Where abouts are you Dan? My GF lives between upware and reach, their internet suplier is as reliable as an old citroen One day they will get 2mb. the next day they get faster upload then download, then sometimes it wont even work or runs slower than 56k dial up!

Quote from MR_B :Found some videos of it, they were kindly made by DrDink iirc. I loved running that series, every race was something different.
I have an extensive archive of all CRC activities.

It's such a shame that as we grew and changed the ways we raced, the simulator we were using did not.

Final standings attached for gAg, 08 champion. Big names in there, even Bob Smith.

2008 is a bit past my time. 2006 is the season of choice (cause I could have won!)

Quote from zeugnimod :I would if that damn server didn't have FCV. :thumbsdow

The first challenge cup (i love my own inventions :razz and stock cup were great! Getting second in the championship behind no_one who was in a diffrent league that season was my best moment...on keys too!

I'll have to keep an eye out for you at DMR kev, just use the keyboard and I'll go back to my good old days of fastest driver on keys Was always a leugh to tell people after the race.

Zeug: I sometimes race in the evenings (8 or 9 onwards UK time) on DMR, you'll have to come join some time.

This may be a who do you miss thread, but I think we should add a congrats to DMR for keeping what we miss alive

I remember having to gain credits way back when. Had to pursuade my mum to buy me S1.....and was too scared to use the online mode .
CTRA and all the points based servers ruined it for me too, you couldnt pick up and play anymore.
As for missing people....Mkinnov8 (stoney), General_UK, kev (Thisnameistaken), Zeug (well, miss the racing anyway :razz, and ska69 (stil use his XRR sets to this day!)
Still feel pre '06 (and just before the fall of the final incarnation of the CRC) were the best times. Its nice to join the guys at DeadMenRacing on their server, its like a glimpse into the past. Keep it up guys!

Quote from Matrixi : I know modern mainstream casual racing games have nasty input lag on vital car controls (steering, gas/brake) but this is the first time I've seen actual SHIFT lag.

I read somewhere that the shift lag is just the sound not the actuall shift, if you switch your sound to software (Rather than the hardware or whatever option) the lag improves a lot.

Location: Waitrose, southend-on-sea

Petrol: 110.9 (Quite handy when the car has days of 32mpg!)
Diesel: 113.9

Cheapest petrol station around for miles. Also, if the info is correct, it uses shell fuel

Stopped using D510's at work about 18 months ago. Minimum spec is dc7600's now! But we could fit ati cards in there, will try and find out the name/make for you tomorrow when I'm at work.
http://www.bell-group.net/page.php/contact Might be worth contacting them for a dc7100 if you cant find a card, would presume it wouldnt be much! Ive sent a few thousand down to the depo myself
