Quote from TexasLTU :https://twitter.com/IndyCar/status/635618906145726465

Closed cockpits should be tried and implemented ASAP. No matter what idiots, who frankly have enough stupidity to call themselves "true racing fans" that keep moaning about how-exciting-80's-real-men-was are saying. We cannot afford to spare another soul.

Yeah... But they have to be introduced in all forms of open wheel racing. In GP3 there were a couple of people very very lucky to not be hit by a tyre or anything.
On another note, IndyCar seemed to have gone to a pre-Wheldon oval racing style again. Going 7-wide into turn 1 is definately more then just borderline.

You can drive any car any round. You are not forced to cling to a car once you raced it.

Every team can decide where they want to drive which of the cars and you can switch classes without (until the start of qualifying) consequences. There won't be restrictions about spots per class.

The goal is the test of a platform where people can decide on driving the car, they want to drive most.

Maybe it is worth to suggest, that the automatic sorting, that shows up when you actually click the page, should be by date rather then by alphabet.

Another thing, the "latest" news shown on the general league page is not the latest news the league has posted. Announcing CityLiga 21 and being approved already, the news shown still ist about CityLiga 19 and from Fri 12 Sep 2014. Uhmm

I now realised the problem. When you click on add news in your league's section, it actually does not automatically add the news to your league but rather creates a generic post. So it was a lack of attention not a flaw in the system.

Quote from Gutholz :I also wonder what do people think is "news-worthy?"
Because right now only announcements are posted: "New season starts", "New league founded"
But unless you race there you never know what happend of it...results, pictures, livestream recording, reports etc: You only find it when looking elsewhere.
I think it would be good to post results/reports too maybe. Because afterall the announcements are partly meant to advertise and what is better advertisement then succesful completion of last event?
Or would be too spammy? Maybe if all do it then nobody will feel like spammer Tilt

On cityliga.de the last news are from January 2015 and about previous season too. Maybe it got confused from there Nod

The main problem might be, that it takes effort and right now effort is a problem for manny leagues, since they focus it on the actual racing rather then the accompanying measures. CityLiga has no race reports since Season 14, for example, simply because there weren't enough people with enough time who wanted to do it. The most recent news on cityliga.de is acutally from Tue 12 May 2015, however the news module on the homepage is broken.

Genuine Racing events were essencially run by Dom in the final seasons and Rony makes an astonishing job to do everything on his own in his leagues and the Tuesday races.

if someone feels like having found a nice line around the kyoto combo, could he/she upload a spr? I have no idea about that line through the hairpin exiting the national/oval pits
Replay script

Hello,

since I have trouble to do live streaming from my computer, I asked myself how to efficiently take on a re-live recording of a stream: e.g. you record the commentators live, and do the stream around it in post production. This brings a few problems with it. since you need to go through everything three times and do camera changes and (if you are not using tv director) the overlays manually.

Recently I came to the idea, that it would be handy to simply use the lfs cameras, the replay time code and the lfs username in some sort of txt file and let the rest be scripted:


[timecode] [camera] [LFS World Name]
00:00:00.00, A, TFalke55
00:00:10.00, B, troy
00:01:00.12, C, n3ox
...

with A B C being different standard cameras (e.g. A=TV, B=Heli, C=custom,...)

Afterwards you should be able to just use fraps or alike to record it and you can upload it to youtube.

This would also require some sort of overlay system, TV director like, showing the current standings with gaps. But maybe it could show more information, if they are extractable from the replay file, like time in pitlane, given penalties or fastest laps :P

I hope someone takes on the challenge, I'd be really happy if.

Thanks for reading. Smile
