The RB4's Future ?

Quote from -DrftMstr- :the important thing is that the devs keep the RB4(and plz don't lock the torque split to 50F/50R), i only wish that they increase the power to weight-ratio to be able to compete with a XRT. That fat RB4 also need a body update but i'm really glad the devs made the RB4 . Talking of RBR, yes it would be very fun to have one but it's going to be alone in its class. The GTR cars should be differenciated in 2 classes like in Super GT GT300 and GT500. In GT500, we have the FZR, FXR and XRR. In GT300, maybe a RBR a N/A XRR and a top-covered RA GTR? Then LFS would really be the perfect racing sim


thet thing is the RA is a real car, i dont know if the creator of this car would agree to a GTR verison of their car. also i dont see why they wouldnt. it could be like the toyota MR that compete in the GT 300. this would be great the RA is a very fun car, but with a little bit more downforce and horsepower and slicks itd be a blast imo.
1. Maybe there should be GTS versions of the cars. For example, the FXO would have FWD. And, they would be a step between GTR and standard.

2. Why don't they give us the RaceAbout2005?
Instead of another road event, what about FIA S2000 type touring cars?

And we want the new RaceAbout :-)
Quote from FPVaaron :What I'd really love to see is an RB4 special rally version with about 500hp AWD nice tall springs and a good centre of gravity.

group b
-100kg / 550 hp and we have decent division 1 rallycross car.
I'm for a RB4 WRC... Together with some long point-to-point special stages through the Blackwood forrest this would make a nice Rallye Pack

If i'm correct the LFS engine is not capable of point to point races. Would be cool though
Uhm, of course it is, drag strip anyone? Or single stage autocross configurations?

Not possible are "open city" environments, because there the "what can you see" calculation would go bonkers, but a single stage is more or less a really stretched out circuit with only one "lap".

Hmm, you're right. I stand corrected

I'm not excactly sure what you mean?
With "open city" I mean an GTA-like environment, a freely accessible city (which was often requested earlier). Right now LFS always has visibility checks running, so only the polygons you can actually see are rendered. This alrgorithm relies on having a defined circuit or route, which wouldn't be the case in such an open city, therefore the whole city would be rendered all the time, killing your fps for good. Alteast I understood it like this the last time Scawen explained it.
Yep, you've got it right. I assume this is also part of reason your car is reset when you leave the designated area (Ie. Trying to go down the Autox course when you are on the GP course at Blackwood)
Why are u guys so keen on having the cars completly balanced
Not completely balanced, but more even. Atm, FXO is by far the fastest on tarmac tracks and the other cars are rarely used and almost never seen in the top positions of a TBO class race.

Maybe, you'll think the same, if you get a licence and see it yourself.
Why must they be even. I think Each car should have its own specific aspect as which it excels at. Very even cars tend to make races very boring.

If it were up to me i would have a RB GTr and a rally one. i mean how long can it take make both versions.

Equal cars isnt gonna be the way u get Tight close racing everyone is looking for.

A GTR car and a Rally car is exactly the same
GTR and rally cars are FAR from being the same.
They have GTR versions of just about everything else...I say why not, but if I had to choose between that OR a rally version...Rally all the way!

Quote from Shotglass :come on ... just look at the abbreviation ... rbr ... its gotta be a rally car

agreed, RBR for rally, RBG for the GTR..
300hp RB4 Rally in WRC trim would be awesome. I expect something like that with the rally pack
Must have :D
Ra GTR (by Quicksilver) but with roof!

This one is a must-have! It looks good as it is..
But imagine it like on the picture And hopefully a fixed rear end, cause I dont like the one that it has now..

But I cant wait for it in S3... I want it in the next patch!

It's a real car, you can't just change the rear That would be a nice car though. I'd like to have a rally car, not for daily use, but I'd use it once in a while. Just like every other car, I hop in a different one when I feel like it. At the moment I'm in the TBO cars
RB4 is my beloved car in non-GTR class in LFS.
I am really looking forward to know out about it's future in LFS.

Hehe thanks man
