First off, it's not a sport. Hey Cletus, do you hear me? Not a sport! Any jackoff can drive in a circle for three hours and not crash, especially since the only participants are white males. Where's the fun in that? Let's get Asians, old women with three kids in the car, 16-year-old girls driving Mustangs.... At least that would provide a challenge, and serve some entertainment value.

And furthermore, what possible athletic ability does it take to drive? At least in golf, you have to be able to swing a club and wear tight pants while walking 18 holes. What the hell do NASCAR drivers do? Do you have to work out in the off-season? Hell no. All you have to do is drive fast. Still, some people try to make the NASCAR drivers come off as great athletes. Who gives a rat's ass if a guy wins a race? That's not his victory. That's the car. '

Quote from WH33LNUT :

Be there any Nascar skins??

Nascar?... pff illepall

Jacques Villeneuve '05 Car

I have been wanting to build this skin for quite some time and finally had the time and willingness to do so. It might not have been a very successful race car, but it sure looked good! I've included a preview as well as both a 2048x2048 and 1024x1024 version of the skin.

This skin can also be found under 'BF1 Skins'.

Damn I missed it too :banghead:

You should check out the f1.com website.

I hope this points system didn't take you too long to type up because it really was pointless and a complete waste of time..

Sorry if that's harsh, but it's the truth.

No pit crew? Who puts in the fuel, changes the tires, etc? They might not be visible (yet), but they are definitely there.

Obviously they would be pre-recordings...illepall

Flags are not enough, which is why radio communication has been implemented (among other things).

Yep, it's a pretty sweet design. I might give it a go if I don't hear back from Knight Attack, although he did say it would take some time.

Quote from Ted Hung :

umm this might be a little too late but the monaco GP is going to be shown again on friday on speed channel in the evening. check your local listings.

It's on at 9:00 pm PT (Friday).

I didn't win the copy on ebay so you just saved me about 20 bucks!

Thanks

How are you making out with the skin?

Found one on ebay. Thanks guys

Quote from Hankstar :

Bah, down with the Monaco-bashing already! If it was included in LFS, any server that was running it would be very popular. With me anyway

Imagine FOXs, UFRs and of course BF1s at Monaco...admit it, that would rule!

Yep

Quote from Gabkicks :

yeah i know he said legally but there are no legal means

I added "legally" in there just so that I wouldn't get into any trouble.

No Tivo's in Canada

I'm looking for a copy of this race on either VHS or DVD. I had to work and missed all but the last 6 laps. :irked: Does anyone know where I might be able to buy a copy (legally of course)?

Thanks, Canuck

I don't know about everyone else, but I think LFS would really benefit by having some real F1 tracks such as Monte Carlo, Silverstone, Melbourne, Montreal, etc. Is there some kind of legal/licensing issue stoping them from doing so? If you can have real cars such as the BMW Sauber, why not have real tracks as well?

Thanks for all of the input. I think I'm going to go with the DFP + frex apapter.

I only ever seem to drive the BF1 and would like to buy an Formula 1 style pc steering wheel. Anybody know of any out there? I checked logitech but they didn't seem to have any.

I updated the post.

I'm looking for a high res Jacques Villeneuve BF1 car skin from his '05 circuit.

I added a picture of his 2005 Spanish Grand Prix car which I got from http://www.jv-world.com/gallery/story_7337.shtml (In my opinion, much nicer than the 2006 look!)

How do you get a preview of the helmet. I'd like to post one I just designed.
