During my lunchtime race today I was involved in (and no, I didn't cause!) probably the biggest full on race crash i've seen in a busy LFS server. So much so I spent the last 10 mins of lunch recording it and uploading to YouTube.... Poor old [SR] Gav is battered around under the bridge, fnar fnar

Enjoy

yeah, as soon as i posted it started working.

That is epic! I was thinking about putting together a FOX crash compilation from the past week, but there has been so many it would take a while!

Watch it onboard me, I am met with a wall of cars!

And I thought you were a yank!

Lol, no mate. I moved to San Francisco a couple of years ago after Oracle bought my company. I miss the 30 minute trips up to Silverstone to go thrash my car around

I missed it having lagged out.

Nice one.

as much as it's a good crash, which deserves to be seen, I'd love to see some work done to record it without the HUD, with proper visual aid (like circling the points of interest in some racing events on tv). With better camera positioning and so on...

Sounds like you just volunteered for the re-edit Want the replay file?

Lol yeah i was also in it I looked in the mirros and laughed so hard this was just the most epic crash in recent time.
Lukcy I got trough with some damage and not ended up in the huge pileup.

Im actualy thinking of making a series where people send in their crashes and I comment on them in a movie

An addition to that (well, I don't really mind him leaving the HUD and all, but) at least don't pause every 2 seconds of play and make the video 6 minutes 13 seconds. The second half of the vid should have been the first part, so we can actually see the crash first. Then we can see the analysis if we want to.

This happens when ppl from the back see yellow flag, in lfs public racing that means:
Pile up ahead, stamp on the gas, NOW
It's just ridiculous to see these last few cars banging into pile up. And not just them could have avoided the crash...
I remember crashes like this from SO Classic FOX.

Oh just that I was watching you on server, and every time you came into contact with someone, "wtf" appeared on screen.
