Quote from Sobis :

I want to add - so clutch mustn't be 100% overheated (full bar) or it mustn't be red (~15% of the bar)? Red clutch is by no mean overheated if it has just gotten red - it might not clamp as aggressive but it won't randomly start slipping...

I'd suggest the CT bar mustn't be above 1/3 or 1/2?

Ahhhh! Good thinking! That is indeed like you said due cars acting differently. I quickly edit that rule, and so be it 1/2 for two reasons:

1. Balancing issues, 1/2 ( 50% of whole bar ) affects more cars than 1/3
2. Easier to determine, does it violate car condition rule or not.

Everyone must have to keep in mind that no pitstop repairs the clutch overheat!

Alright! Pre-Round 0 will be set soon, with selected code seed number from Jay from Finland, and it is : 31118.

It will be revealed once I have slept enough well. Nap time! --->

Quote from MacedoSTI :

Scawen, it Maybe can add more lights options on each track?
Night for example

If its happend maybe you can add some Glow for headlights

Suggested like... 78495374953784593784953 times, so pretty sure he have thought of that too!

Quote from lucaf :

Yes, if we will not have next update in LFS soon, I will soon win my first race

World is crazy - I fully agree!


I apologize, not full race included since last laps were just hotlapping separately

Those words happened to be a catalyst for my next idea, along with the racing video

Sounds like plans have further aspects as I ( or we as well ) thought. Pretty sure there is thought out of lighting changing visual/physical conditions and vice versa.

And now, we wait ( again )

Quote from Scawen :

If I had known at the time I would be going for over a decade with two versions, I would have taken a different approach.

That's what I thought recently when I looked past 8 years, but thing and reason is completely different



But still, could be a lot worse!

What an amazing answer!

1. Such day is far further than appropriate date in terms of development cycle in this generation

2. Such day is invalid, as it does not exist in our calendar system in these days

3. Your answer is waste in terms of attempting to trolling

4. Your answer is high likely going to be marked as spam

5. Your answer took several seconds for no real reason in case of revealed lack of interest


So, why in first place to give a brick? At least my curious level raised big time, although it is unlikely I would get any appropriate answer.

Any very long track with complete flat out ( but not necessarily oval/speedway, could be flat/banked track with left and right hand turns )

Any kind of track with tunnel.

We need commentators here. Despite idea being stupid, it would fit for go about 1 hour before actual draw ( Allotment should be also visible, somehow )

Then, we need some aftermath comments!

Fitting for that old wrecker.

I see what you mean!

Reminder: thuis had always supposed to be hard-core. Thats why certain aspects


Lol mobile typing is mobile

Quote from jh89 :

EDIT: Any questions which pops out, shout it!

So, did i understand it right... you can not have a broken suspension or flat tyre at the finish line, at the end of race? If you dont want any plausible penaltyes ... just strategically thinking ...

Yes. This prevents ppl using too much walls or going too fast, or if dropped off the path and used !flip command and damage too high.

Unless combo is xtreme , it wont change much things, if at all.

Okay, it's on! ( Been for a while, but now confirmed! More info coming soon )

kids today seems to be simply same as before

Quote from Racon :

I don't know if I ever made that suggestion or not, but I was planning to at the least a while back

I want to DQ people who haven't taken a joker lap on my rallycross server - my workaround is to have a checkpoint before the finish line but after the joker entry. On the last lap if they haven't taken the joker I give them a SG penalty, which turns into a DQ when they finish the race without serving it. It's not ideal, but it keeps the DQ inside LFS (ie, part of the results received by insim) instead of me having to add it after and diddle the results.

I also thought it might be nice to be able to set a minimum time to serve in pits regardless of tyres/fuelling/repairs etc. (As Rony's XL races do, penalising based on the amount of time missed). We could use this for race balancing too - might be a nice alternative to ballast/restriction.

We have exactly same thought!

Welcome to the speed!



More info coming very soon! Check here meanwhile


EDIT: Any questions which pops out, shout it!

( And no, despite having similar name, this has nothing to do about Flatout game series! )

Noticed we have following penalty options:

DT = Drivethrough ( Which leads Disqualification if not cleared during race )
SG = Stop And Go ( Which leads Disqualification if not cleared during race )
30 = 30 second penalty
45 = 45 second penalty

I think today's standards those are too slim options. I am suggesting to give us at least DQ option or variable time penalties.

EDIT: Just found out it was suggested before, my bad. ( Title was not telling it directly tho )

This is my sons birthday and I chose it because he has won around 12 k€ worth of prices in National eMotorsport races and series organized in Finland during 2016 & 2017 using LFS as platform.

If I win I will give the voucher to a person having next nearest guess and who needs it more

For everyone setting a guess. Read the rules, there is a whole bunch of them, namely TWO

Okay...? lol!

why on earth that machine did look like clumsy? hah.

EDIT: Why it has to be on that amazing color?

Quote from rik97 :

Fridays would only fit me if the race finishes before 19 UTC as I already do bangers on friday nights. But tuesdays will be cool

I bet he did read that


And I also see point. When I ran my own series, there was several rounds "outside" of European timezone, there were not many, but was refreshing to see some new guys around there.

Now I am sticking to 18.00 UTC because there is no room to do it otherwise due my personal life. Gotta be fresh when job starts again, sooner or later. Heck, I even changed Thursday to Friday, by people's opinions. Not sure if that will bring much people, but if it does, that's good.

Approximately waiting 5-10 racers per Round.

More information coming soon. All things should be ready, excluding few errors in my thought, have to re-do few things again, takes few hours. Then everything should be to be announced.

Server is now officially opened

Quote from BlackEye :

Soooo...

I'm supposed to go dust off stuff and smash that F5? If you insist. :3
Seriously, tho. Nice that both of you are excited to work on it again, makes me happy as well.

Back to LFS in VR and new physics/graphics/content... but...

Rallypack, Scawen?!

Watch out! You might invoke that Norwegian guy to speak up about it!
