With auto clutch on, the handbrake will stay on if you're not moving--which is to say, it will stay on if the clutch is in (at any speed).

It won't work if you have auto clutch off and you're not moving and not touching the clutch.

Quote from Aegilops : Oh hell, while we're dreaming...

So, I emailed that to my old man because I thought he might get a kick out of it. He just replied:

Quote from wark's fadda :I drove this in a Countach. Only 60 hairpins? Seemed like a lot more.



Personally, I'd rather bicycle up that thing.

Quote from JTbo :WR laps are worthless, often I see them driving quite odd manner with really weird setups, would not work well IRL, imo.

Didn't you get the memo? you're supposed to drive in an odd manner with a really weird setup! no wonder you don't have any WRs!

Oh, the irony...

Quote from Blackout :Ok, but don't you dare to edit it!

What's funny is I didn't... I went on the forum to download that exact file and copy it over each skin instead of making them blank manually :shhh:

Quote from Jakg :Call me pedantic, but i ALWAYS use a white skin for default, and for my "white" skin and then for a "Black" skin i use the ingame sliders - using a "pure" colour skin makes the car look a LOT better imo

Exactly. I don't know why I didn't do this sooner! I've always been a 'fidelity-phile' and only used dark colours to try and minimise the effect of the default skin's shadows. The devs should make an honest-to-god blank skin default--not even have a jpg for it. The RA and FO8 look particularly better.

Quote from Blackout :Here is a skin to go with that.

I'm actually using this skin now (replacing the default). It's a lot... cleaner. Let LFS make its own shadows, I say!

Quote from Stigpt :The journalists were thinking the car would handle (and I'm quoting) "Like a shopping cart with wheels".

Like a shopping cart... but with wheels! I wonder how much faster you could shop with one of those! :drugs:

I could write a book on how pointless new car/track suggestion threads are.

Listen... if it's not "lag," what is it? It's lag. It may not be network lag, but it is lag per se. The name is lagging behind the car. The car is accelerating away from the name and the name can't keep up, id est it is intrinsically lagging!

Thus Dillyracer's original complaint, either way, is one of lag. He words lag as "float" (as in drift).

Quote from The Very End :You joking or are you serious?
Belived it would be caused by lag

It is a kind of lag, yes.

Right. And I said "right," corroborating your bug report. I also said "also," proceeding to explain another way going backwards in the pit lane can be used to cheat.

This has been discussed to death a couple times.

Right. I've also noticed that on some tracks it may be faster to go into the pits, take the first box, and go back out the pits the way you came in, in order to avoid a speed limit.

Quote from Ball Bearing Turbo :Lift, if it were present, could be seen as the vectors pointing down getting shorter as load eases off the tires.

As can downforce, nevertheless we have them pretty little blue lines...

+1 I'd also like to see different surfaces have different grip characteristics, i.e. concrete more slippery than black top.

I think we should see lift and drag in the forces view.

Quote from Jamexing :Longer names would actually help a lot with organization. For instance, try typing "FZR Qualifying setup 1.00" in the current setup names...

Well, ah... you would obviously know that it's an FZR, and that it's a setup...

"Qual. 1.00" fits just fine.

Quote from Dalarna :Is it just me reacting to the thin guy with a cap that still has the pricetag left on it?

Oh right, on topic.
Spinners would ruin the main idea of LFS, so it will never happen.

Yeah, that's actually a real style here.

Wear it like you stole it!

Wasn't the UF one of those cars that was planned to be changed? along with the LX4 and maybe one or two others? They had some warning about skins for them not going to work forever. Maybe I'm remembering wrong.

P.S. I clearly remember seeing a very modern car the UF was [obviously] based on. Some Korean car or something. Maybe it was only in the concept stage, but it was a near match.
