I really don't care about the cheaters. Hotlapping is boring and you can ban them in online races.

cool movie !

But I fail to understand why people choose to put tires behind rock solid barriers. Such tracks would be funnier/safer if there were more bales and tires used instead of barriers. Collisions with barriers are fun the first few times but in the end, we want a non-stop battle for the lead until the end without 80% of the grid unable to finish the race.

I would have loved to see the end of the last jump

I will add in this discussion that the default setups in LFS are far from "market ready road setups".

I will also add that the 350Z can easily slide and drift when pushed hard. But I don't think you drive it on normal roads like Tiff Needell in a racetrack.

show me a layout where it applies. We race in regular "slalom" using the french regulations of the real champs and the FOX is the ultimate car.

The MRT narrow tires just haven't enough grip in comparison.

I will probably host a match this evening but I'm not sure at this time if it will be public or private server.

No offense to you all, but this is the first time we will do it and we would like to play it with very close friends.

But if we are not enough, we will open it publicly and I'll let you know

Best LFS movie I've ever seen

I don't know what is the best solution (more power or wings), but I think it's a pity the MRT is not event the best car in LFS in its own speciality : autocross.

Most of the time, even in the twistiest layouts, the MRT is smoked by the FOX and in a lesser extent, by the UFR. This car is useless except in monotype races.

Quote from DanTheDon :
P.S could also do with a dedicated server hosting this, can see it being VERY popular

you still need a player to do the ball.

when doing league races (all sims concerned), I use to have something to drink in those bottles made for bicycle racers (don't know how they are called in english).

In summer, I sometimes uses a camelback

Simply put your name/nickname on your skin. Very few people will want to race with another's nickname on their car.

I haven't tested them after the patch, but I'm quite sure they didn't have one before the patch.

They should also remove the hand brake of the BF1.

I saw some insane tires deformations while racing online with the LX6 yesterday. But I don't know how realistic it is. I remember when I had my crazy driving period at 18, a friend tried to follow me on a curvy downhill but told me later he slowed down because he was scared how my tires were deforming. I had cheap and narrow tires.

At least, Albers crash works fine. I suffered from the same crash in a LX6/RAC/FZ50 race at blackwood yesterday

Quote from tristancliffe :Edit: And why, with all the other posts between mine and yours did you feel mine was the one to pick up on? :/

Because yours was well argumented though I don't agree. There's no point to answer to trolls, so I answer to people who deserve it.

TristanCliffe : your statement apply only to modern track racing.

drifting is widely used in rallying or offroad racing and is done one purpose, because it is sometimes better to loose a bit of time sliding in a corner while keeping full throttle in order to keep the engine in it's ideal powerband (especially with turbo cars) for the corner exit. It's also sometimes faster to slide the backend on purpose to do an hairpin because the setup of the car is balanced for faster corners and would induce oversteer.

I don't do drifting (ok I sometimes do it for the fun after having crossed the finish line with a regular setup) but I have nothing against it. I find perfectly sane and preferable to see both Drift servers and racing servers : it avoids misunderstandings and keeps people with the same goal togethers.

It's funny to see all you guys accusing and blaming someone to use a cracked .exe while you seem to know a lot of stuff about how the .exe was cracked, if it had a virus or not and how it was easily available.

A cracked lfs exe is not something you find while walking innocently on the street, I presume some have already used one. I personnaly never searched one thus never found one, and I'm sure you can't find a cracked exe by accident :arge:

So next time, give him a chance, ask him politely to login to the forum using his own S2 account instead of accusing him directly while some of you do not look so innocent in this case. If in this case he uses a cracked copy, he will probably reconsider the question about wether he should purchase it.


Back to the topic : I never watch my speed gauge. I have absolutely no idea of the highest speed I can reach in LFS. Mom told me to watch the road, you never know, sometimes a corner decide to appear in front of you.

Quote from ramtech :id like to see both versions of the Renault 5 GT Turbo

this: http://ramtech.free.fr/fete/philiOUF-r5-gtturbo.jpg
and this: http://z-o-g.org/gt4cars/frenc ... i-turbo-rally-car-85.html

These are not two version of the GT Turbo. The first one is a GT turbo, but the second one is a Renault 5 Turbo, a Maxi 5 Turbo in this case.

Yes I was thinking about this too.

It would be great to have a pro-truck-like and a little buggy in S3 as well
