Quote from zeugnimod :

I find the championship very interesting in this season.

The two first drivers are separated by only 3 points.

We didnt have that very often in the last years this far into the season.

I mean "to keep it interesting after this affaire"... It wouldnt have been interesting anymore if they'd have done the obvious: take the drivers' points too.

I've been enjoying this season as much as anyone here

I'm with J.B. here... A 100 million dollar?! They could have bought the complete Spyker F1 team for that... how on earth can they ever afford that!?

Also leaving the drivers unpunished seems to strengthen J.B.'s theory for a publicity stunt... after all this is the only way to keep the championship interesting.
I find it unbelievable that the drivers - who got all those championship points with an illegal (or a with-illegally-fetched-knowledge-constructed) car - are left unpunished!

You can say they didn't have anything to do with it, but at least Alonso knew. If he was to stay unblamed, he should have said "I'm not racing this car". And don't get me wrong; I'm not saying that's the obvious thing to do, I'm only saying that that would have been the only way for him to keep a clean sheet in this affaire... in my opinion he is to blame as much as the team is and the FIA is being ridiculous!

Great job on the LFS item in the second episode, keep it up!

Could we please see the final applications list for the GT1 class?

I don't think there's really big prizes needed for people to take part in a well organised league with high-level racing. The most important issue is to keep the interest throughout the season.
I think one solution for this would be to not only give away prizes at the end of the season, but (also?) per race.
Another solution would be to not just give prizes to the winner or podium places of every race, but also to for example the highest climber (in the race, or in the championship standings), or maybe even a small prize for a random non-podium-finisher of the race... this will stimulate those not fighting for the race wins to keep coming back every race and will raise the league's attraction as a whole.

Edit: to answer the other questions
1) I wouldnt mind paying a small fee for a well-organized league.
2) One sprint and one main race with (top 8 or 10) reversed grids.
3) Prize money.

Just wanted to shamelessly plug my recent achievements in the selection round of the Dunlop Drivers Cup 2007, since part of the competition is to gain as much publicity as possible for the companies involved in the organisation...


Here's the article I made for our own website:

Quote :

R. vd Kooij in Dunlop Drivers Cup 2007 finals!

04-09-2007 - Whether or not having simracing as a hobby has helped him achieve this result, it's a fact that vd Kooij was the winner of the qualifying day of the Dutch Dunlop Drivers Cup 2007. Out of 1500 subscribers he's one of the 25 participants that will now head out to the race track in Zandvoort, where they will fight for the ultimate prize: a guest race in the Dunlop Sportmaxx Renault Clio Cup in 2008!

You can read the whole article - including images, and a story about my racing fight with A1GP and former DTM and LeMans 24h driver Jeroen Bleekemolen - on our website...

Quote from Austin31287 :

Very mature behaviour

I would gladly help if I didnt have to read your posts at least 4 times before I understand what you mean, bitch.

Give up LFS and go to school asap. Your grammar is horrendous.

Congrats guys, I think both driver and team will benefit from this deal

Quote from bluejudas :

Last time i checked the winner was Kenneth

http://www.lfsnorge.net/

Aii I thought you meant Norwegian Kart Champion! Sorry for the confusion

Quote from bluejudas :

I was a bit eager with my cellular during the broadcast. I got both Norbert's and Kenneth Østvold's name mentioned on the Norwegian broadcast They mentioned Live for speed several times

Kenneth won the Norwegian championship and he is also go cart driver... the expert commentator new his name from go cartin... they sounded surprised but... maybe they will take simracing a bit more serious after this... ??

I'm sorry to say that you were probably misinformed and therefore you misinformed the Norwegian broadcasters too
Kenneth Østvold hasn't won the Norwegian championship, it was his team mate Christian Krognes

Edit: on-topic, Thanks to the guy who posted the race clips above.. I missed the race as I was at Circuit Zolder to watch the Masters of Formula 3... was awesome to see those passing manouvres and just to see the name N. Kiss like I've seen it in MoE many times before... seems like an awesome job there Norbi, many many congratulations!! And good luck for the future!

Couldn't this be done over pm? What's all this personal insulting lately, didn't expect this from you Tristan. Edit to clarify: didn't expect him to insult a well known member of the forum admins just because he did something he thought was good for the community...

Either way, I myself have also made the mistake to make a comment about J.B. and his demo account (and posting S2 content) once, so to avoid more misconceptions it would be nice to give him the S2 licensed tag. Or maybe J.B. could just use his license name to post on the forum..?

You need Join2LFS to use the Join link... of course you can always join the server by looking for it in the server list, in-game.

Quote from Iron :

It would be interesting to see in the table that how many "laps" each player has completed.

Since we're starting the requests anyway... an online status indicator would be nice to have in the table too

Good step towards hardcore mode. Should make for an interesting league...

Quote from ayrton senna 87 :

if u drive too much and just 'pound round' u get into a comfortable rhythm and don't really concentrate.

That's so true!

Some nice tips up there, been thinking a lot about how to improve consistency myself and "look the same place each time round" is something I never really put to practise, gotta try that soon!

Wow, awesome!

Take your pills everyone?

As much as I dislike Alonso, I think that move was perfectly fine - not brilliant, just brave - and there was no reason to leave the second apex open as Heidfeld wasn't there! No one's mentioned the scenario that Heidfeld had to choose the run-off area because he carried too much speed into the turn to make it through the outside line...?

My opinion above, now please don't shout at me... lol.
