I can lose over 0.5 secs a lap with throttle cut enabled.

Quote from Cargo :

I'm talking about the no wheels on the track at all for the AS chicane. Between the white lines, the kurb is not track. So the really fast lappers (I've seen) have 2 in the dirt and 2 on the kurb, with the mid-section scraping and dragging across the inside kurb edge. The exit of chicane is a little more believable with this line because of the small green concrete patch there makes it more believable but the entrance chicane does not.

Yup, that's how I drive it.

Regarding curbs though, on every race track out there if a racer can get away with riding the kerbs (even in F1) they will do so.

Are we talking about 4 wheels on the grass into the last turn?

The only people I see doing that do not put in 'fast' laptimes, and conedodgers have barriers set up to prevent blatant straight-lining through the corners. Pretty much all the aliens who set the best times (1.40-41) have 2 wheels on the track and 2 on the grass into the last turn.

To me the last corner in ASNAT is all about car setup. Ride height, suspension stiffness and anti-roll all has to be right for a fast mid-corner speed (90-100mph). The killer is that your set-up has to be right for T1 as well so compromises have to be made.

As for entry into the last turn, I do have my left wheels on the turf and my right wheels on the kerb. Other fast drivers don't (see CD Dimo for instance).

Working as designed.

I think the point being made here is that if 60% of your drivers can't finish a race without hitting the barriers then you have 2 problems. Sure the collision detection needs work but, by the sounds of it, so do your drivers.

So, do you use custom layouts in your races?

Quote from Kashopi :

Aha , so LFS has no bug ... the bug is on drivers. Perfect.

That's not what she said. No need to be belligerent.

Me and my mates have a home race every week and use the handicapping system to provide really close racing.

Nice one Birder

huh?

CD servers rock. They are a great bunch of guys and I am glad the new systems are working well.

Roll on the next league season, time to put CD-Dimo under some pressure

We want pitspotter!

this thread isn't for feature requests or chatting with your mates, lets keep it on topic please.

Fingers crossed this one is bullet proof

I don't understand why there should be diffence in handicaps between online and offline play. Seems pointless.

After the earlier thread by the dev which stated that not much had happened last year due to babies and house moves I wouldn't get your hopes up that Eric has done anything except the GTR interiors and the South City refresh.

New content would be awesome but I doubt we will see any soon.

Quote from Gunn :

According to the FIA rules, a driver does not need to pull over. I guess you must have heard Martin Brundle saying that they must move out of the way. He's been saying that for years. The last time that I checked the rules (a few weeks ago) it was not the case.

In F1 you must let the car pass within '3 blue flags' or risk being penalised by the race official.

If its a rear wheel drive car you may be locking the rear brakes, this would cause the engine to drop revs and reduce steering, try taking your foot off the brake

Birder, I think it would be possible for someone working for your server hosting company to restart a race using their server console access. Perhaps they were troubleshooting an issue for another client and restarted the race on the wrong server. Just a thought.

Usually the main thing a moderator has done is to not ask to be a moderator

Browse the forums regularly, always act mature and then you get a tap on the shoulder

Conedodgers is very strick with enforcing the blue flag. There are a lot of fast drivers mixing it up with slow drivers and unfortunately there have been a lot of clashes in the past which has lead the the blue flag rule being quite severe and usually enforced.

Track position, mirror and map awareness are essential on the server.

I think I was on the server when you were banned, it will only be for 12 hours and the CD guys are a good bunch of people who won't hold a grudge.
