Check to see if the Wheel/Game device is in the Game Controllers section in the Control Panel.

If not, go ahead and check to see if its being picked up in the Device Manager area.

Located @ Control Panel -> System -> Hardware

Quote from Dru :Rooble, if you can say Did he get into Mercury on Driving ability alone or attitude or both potential or just because people were judging him on the person they saw - not the person they know?

It's an interesting observation to note.

Cheers,

Dru.

I'm not 100% sure what you're saying but I have something to answer with.

There are few guys within our community who are exceptionally fast and are currently team less (I won't name them!) that would make ideal signings for Mercury Racing or any other team looking for fast pilots, but they lack certain characteristics and pretty much suck in a team setting.

So talent/pace alone really won't do much for you if you're an idiot who generally disregards anyone within the team and wishes to go loan ranger stylie.

Joining a team isn't the be all and end all but some people are giving the kid a rough time for nothing, and for what? Because he switched a team now and then? Or that he duped Mercury and others with his leet-skeet beginner skills?

I think any team who takes 5 minutes to watch him drive can see he has real potential and just needs a little more work on some minor things, I think any team looking to go for the MoE could probably use this guy and would be lucky to get someone who's willing to commit and has ample talent to make stuff happen.

Matt, my advice would be to take it easy for now and work on your driving a bit more and not worry about this team stuff. Once you're up to spec people will take notice and you won't need to ask for peoples attention, you'll just get it.

Sidenote : Not many people seem to complain about drifters team jumping or teams folding within a week, since when has it been such an issue with drivers?

P.S : He got into Mercury didn't he?

IIRC I remember seeing something similar to this on German TV one evening, some small tuning company knocked out a chip that gave this Golf Diesel more then double the power it had initially. I found it hard to believe until I thought it through for a moment and the only reasonable explanation would be, why develop multiple engines when you can just offer the same with less power?

Everyone gets the same car just with more or less the same gadgets and the only difference is the performance in the engine, nothings changed but they rake in more money. Its no real performance gain, but a more a performance release/unlock.

Quote from AMB :Honestly?

I make a lot of stupid decisions, and basically I joined because you had a decent result in IGTC and I thought I could learn from you and maybe race in IGTC, Obviously not much to be learnt, Inactive, Not super quick, Nice guys but being nice doesn't make you fast, Guess i'm going to have to learn myself, I hope I see you in future leagues.

I need a lot a from a team and with the standard of drivers on LFS it should be given if a team wants results.

Example: If i practice for a league race for hours and hours and a team expects me to do all the work and i don't get any help making my setups or anyone to tell me what I am doing wrong then I don't see a point because I can practice for hours and hours and sure i'll be a bit more quicker and consistent but if no one tells me my mistakes I can't correct them.

Work on your braking zones and learn how to modulate the throttle when you need to unlock the rear wheels, learn this and you'll be faster and then people will start to come running.

Good stuff man!!

I really liked that video, it had style and chilled me right out.


Criticism : That camera work in the beginning, you know, the wobbly drunk monkey stuff you do, well its got to go in my opinion. It seems unprofessional with the rest of the flick being awesome, so yeah that's my only snag.


9/10

Edit : evilpimp seems to agree, I hope you don't take it the wrong way dude

Quote from pearcy_2k7 :Not entirely... Provided entertainment for us at the expense of Mercury (i can live with that) And its been given to a demo racer.

Mercury Racing is just the same as it was and a stunt like this won't change anything within the team, however, it just goes to show how much people are willing to do/or spend to get into our team.

A princely sum of £24 seems about right.

Was pretty fun doh!


Peace!

I wouldn't bother with a 125 myself, but if I had to choose it would definitely be a MX styled bike over any sort of 'street super bike copy'.

One of the fastest 125s I've ever ridden was a Aprilia RX125 (Not the new junk) but the later ones, I friend of mine had one imported from Italy and the thing did about 115mph. Another fast 125 I had when I was a kid was a Kawasaki KDX 125, this was probably another one of the faster 125s I've ridden. I remember bombing down a field clocking about 85mph, and the thing was good for 90-100mph on the road (Even though it was like 10 years old at the time).

You can pick up an Xecuter 2.6 CE for £19.49 - http://www.modchip-store.co.uk/Xecuter-26-Ce-p-55.html

I'd grab one of those and bang the chip in there, probably the best thing you can do. My xbox is currently running Gentoox and I use it to play PGR2 every now and then, other then that I barely use it. I've done about 6 or 7 xbox chip installs and I've used both the Xecuter 2.3 + 2.6 and both have worked perfectly.

If you don't want to sign up to xbox live there are alternatives available to gaming online (XLINK and XBConnect) to name a few.

Just managed a 51.162 - Not super fast, but I think 50.8X is doable I just need to bring my 1st sector times back down.

Edit: How do I export replays? I can't seem to work it out... ;\

Quote from rc10racer :Think Rooble's set was based of mine from what i can see anyway, Forbin try this set what i just made... did a couple of laps just got a 51 but need more practice with it plus get the line right and it just hugs the corner nicely.

I don't know where you or Forbin got my set from, I don't recall uploading a set anywhere.

Quote from mcgas001 :Im inocent till proven guilty. Prove it was me? What ya gonna do? Get the logs off msn? OMG, Im so scared. Prove it was me on msn? It could have been hacked?

I also have wireless, So the I.P is no proof. Someone can easly hack wireless with a laptop/psp.

Dont start shit. Im not thick you know.

The fact that you had to offer up possible scenarios to cover up your actions pretty much makes you 'guilty', as for you being thick, well I think this post as with a few others you have posted lately sort of answers that.

So you better run along now and plan for operation 'Take revenge on the lfsforum, because it made me look like a spacko'

Done 15 laps now on my xbox pad and managed to do a 51.88

I think if this game develops well then I'm definitely going to buy it, an xbox pad seems to suit it well and it runs smoothly on my old machine!

P.S : Take off the braking aid if you have an analogue controller cause you can brake much harder and later, just need to ease off quicker too.

Your pots are most likely dirty, go and open your pedal set and clean the bloody things.
