have a screen in the cockpit with the lap secter times on it. i have a digi dash on my track bike, and most tracks have sensers on the diff sectors that relay the lap time to both your pit crew and your cockpit dash.

i personally race with as little info on the screen as possible, to make it more realistic for my self, and the more stuff that can be put into the dash, while still keeping it realish, the better i say.

ive found that the closest raceing that ive had in a long long time, was in the mrt. i have never tried to drive this cept on the autocross track empty, but its so much fun.

with the smaller power vehicles(and i find this in bikes too, with my 400) its more enjoyable cause its easier to come close to, without going over, the edge. you work the car more, so get more of a reward, being the quick, close racing

ive got a few in mind to drive the ball

but on a more serious note, what are your thought on the teamings, just random, whoever you want teams, or 5-6 people from actual teams?

im more for the random teams, but to get this going, ill do either.
once its properly started, all the info will be on the crc site, but i might(if your nice) post basics over on here, times etc.
just gotta get enough interest now
5-a-side tournament

i was wondering what the responce would be like to myself setting up a 5-a-side football tournament. the ball is the uf1, the cars...i was thinking rb4, maybe fxr. possible multiple cars per team, with restrictions.

what does everyone think??


this will be linked with the CRC, but its a fun event, aimed at exactly what games are made for, fun. so whatever beefs you have with the crc, or if you dont think we should exist, who cares, this is supposed to be fun.


so what do you lot think?? can we have a fair amount of teams?? maybe official teams, like T7R, [noobs] or ATC??

just crappy weather. its been really windy of late, so a bit dangerous on a bike, as you look like your riding drunk swaying from side to side. but its starting to get better, few odd showers, nothing permanent, and a bit more sun every so often.
thats a point, i may get a sports tailpack, to save me wearing a bag

i f'in love steriotypes. they are so much fun.

i know they are not true(mostly) but they are so funny, especially when you find some one that fits.

no one would be fast on any track, as people would make a track, race it for a week, then a new track would come along and the other one would be forgotten etc.

just let the devs create the tracks, and we will worry about......something

lets see, woke up, went for run, got back, ate, went to gym...now the good bits start happening. the first(of 2) is that, after a leg/knee injury, i am finally back to squatting my own body weight(just over actually at 85kg(im 84kg)), so yay me

next, i get home to find a piece of mail for me, in itself an amazing feat. so i open, and it turns out the nice people at the inland revenue have decided that im worth it. a tax rebate of £424.42

now, what to throw it away on. hmm, new chain and sprocket kit, maybe a ally screen brace and subframe, what else.....

in the newest performance bikes(uk bike mag) there is a pic of a very very early fzr750 rear-wheel steering through a corner...nuts

the key with that, is to not change the power you have down, ie your hand position on the throttle. too much, and it slides out, either lowside or highside, and if you panic and let off, your gonn highside.

backing it in...thats fun, its fun to get the back skipping too with hard front braking, and a almost locked rear(on off on the brink kind thing) done it a few times, but not comfortable to use it while really lapping

thats scary, as its mostly true, cept the drifting. in lfs im a 'gripper' and in rl, well you cant really drift a motorbike, though some may disagree(see nicky hayden) hmm, freaky.

a page or 2 ago, there was a post by becky saying there is no male advantage in racing. now im a biker and in this side of racing, there is, and it becomes more evident as you climb the ranks. its hard to muscle a hugely powerful bike around when it has so little weight.

egalthough not a girl) danny pedrosa, on top the the motorcycling world in Moto GP, rides a 260bhp honda that weighs in at about 140kg(poss less) he weighs a meger 49kg, and although he can be very quick, he gets worn out at the end of the race(evedent in the recent jerez round1)

though i ahve been whooped by some girls in club events, its all about how much talent you have, and how much your willing to work on that.

as far as i was aware, in quite a few proffesional comps they are saying that you must have this installed. it puts a stop to whining etc. i also heard about it in a jap car mag here in the uk.....ill go see if i can find anything evedent on the net.

though, not quite nos, but you do have to wonder about the effectiveness of the A1 style speed burst.(serious)

then we can add those LED zausts, and a ton of filler and a rudegirl 13 yr old that we picked up at a crooz.(not so serious)

ahh, but to do it right(at least now) you must have a driftbox fitted to your car, with a radio transmitter fitted to that to beam the info direct to a screen infront of the judges...at least in the lowely levels of D1.

and like i said, why not get some of the very talented people her in the lfs community to stretch their coding wings and devise a system to mesure the things i mentioned in my other post.

personally, i would think that just the ability to ahve a drift meter(like the racelogics drift box) which features a digital-esque display with angle, speed and maximum angle saved. another thing that could be incorperated is to have a program that sences the start of a drift, and records the entry speed, average angle, max angle, average speed, and exit speed. dont know how easy this would be in implement, and i think it would have to be made seperate to lfs(as a tweak or stat tracker type)
just an idea. for competition and practice. so def not a points system, as i dont like that idea, too arcade.

well, firstly, ATC runs fairly regular C'n'R events and has at least 1-2 a week sorta un planned(maybe an hour before the start its announced)

and with that R1 police bike...is that by any chance Ace Cafe?? the steps look familiar.
