Do people not read other threads D : This is like what the majority of the many many page "Drift Tracks Needed!!!" thread is about, or atleast turned in to >_< we need harder overall moderation and merging of threads or at least something, so theres not 15 threads almost the same, but ever so slightly different that it gets overlooked
Quote from nutty boy :I think we should have an RB4 GTR. It'd fit the GTR better than any other car.

OFF TOPIC but >>> :iagree:
In fact it's not off topic because it's about what cars we think would be good for the hill climb course.
yep and with he's 4wd rally performance it would be a great car to drive with on a hillclimb course
Quote from deggis :Hualapai Nation @ RBR. As close as it gets to hill climb... or is there any hill climbing sims out there?

You can get much more closer, capo.. try the french stages
Bring on great ocean road from Melbourne Australia. Many kays and corners of fun.
Call it a drift or touge course you get flamed to all hell. Call it a hill climb, and everyones on board! Same difference >_<
I agree, I would love to have Hill climbing and the course could also be used for drifting and so on

I saw bring it NOW lol

Thanks
.I have a nice addition to this hill climb idea.
Since people say it may get boring, how about 2 pits? one at the top one at the bottom and the hill climb track could be made into a circuit where you chose to go down for the start or up.This would take away from the annoying boringness of a one way course, and probably appeal to those who like testing their cars top speed down a hill (me).Between each stage would be the pits due to the bumps and bruises due to happen on either of them just incase.

Just think of it. 2 pits, 2 start lines, one at the top one at the bottom, 2 seperate races on one track (uphill stage/Downhill stage).

Each to their own?

my idea: 2 configs

1. a sprint course with 2 pitlanes begin, end
2. a hillclimb course but a full track so u drive the hillclimb course but u drive laps on it (i hope)

Also jsut to add.

1 Racer starts @ the top & 1 at the bottom. This way they will eventually meet on the track (probably in the middle on a turn hopefully) SO they will try to pass each other without hitting (or hit ) then they got to go to the pit, repair and so on then leave again and race back up or down the hill.

First person to finish the course up and down + 1 Pit wins.

sry i don't think thats not very fun to do, just like in real wait until som1 else start and maybe 2 mins after the other driver starts
Ghost cars for head to head racing on teh hill climb.
uum...My idea was to make it into a circuit but with the hillclimb and a return trip as to taka away from the boringness the drivers would go in the same direction at the same time, and can possibly start at the same time .
Just download ghost car mod.

Something that would make it more interesting. 2 cars race. 1 starts at the bottom 1 at top. Disastrous.

What are you on about? illepall U maybe get confused as Pikes peak is called a hillclimb & drivers drift round the bends on that course.

A Hillclimb is not a Drift Course. (not in Europe anyways)
Quote from nutty boy : 2 cars race. 1 starts at the bottom 1 at top. Disastrous.

Yes but so much fun, also then it would teach people how to avoid getting hit and all that, I think it would be really good. But it could also be bad. Oh well

Ricerguy, your idea seems fun to me. Only problem is the risk of crashing if any driver forgets to hold his lane whilst passing each other. Nothing a good real time car tracking map, skill and attention can't solve.

To make it a fair race, each driver would start at opposite ends of the course (uphill or downhill). The finishing straights for each end would be 4 lanes wide to ensure adequate space for the turnaround. One lap is basically counted as one uphill and downhill combined session.

The winner is determined by whoever has the fastest combined uphill and downhill time.

Or, there's always the option of a one run (uphill or downhill) 1 on 1 battle.
I went up Pikes Peak (http://www.ppihc.com/) in my mothers minivan last summer, but i'd love to do it in a LX6.

I vote yes, for hill climbs!

That was not my idea. my idea was, that the whole track be a circuit where no matter where u start (top/bottom) both drivers go in clockwise/ counter clockwise motion the start lin for the driver startng at the bottom would be the finish line for the downhill driver or checkpoint f the driver continues the course.Same for other way around. i can't seem to notice whats so hard to understand ...i'll draw it out if i can comeout with a track design.
Not TOO different fropm the idea I just suggested, but a good one nonetheless.
...I think that could be added to my idea.
Wouldn't the car starting the downhill Run first havean advantage of downhill speed + uphill entry speed? .
i think u guys r making it a littlebit to hard, IF i say IF we get such track plz keep it simple: a hill climb course, normal and reverse, 1 driver at the time, just pitlane downhill, pitlane uphill and maybe a full course

goodnight, Kevin
Not much if any advantage, if the course is well designed (e.g slow corner right before the turnaround straights). This mimizes if not eliminates entry speed advantages. Besides, The uphill starting car will get his chance to go faster on his downhill run, so that evens things out, since the downhill starting car would have to go slower on its uphill run too.
either way guys you forget LFS is a simulation. What type of racing are you simulating here?!?

Exactly. The idea is ludicrous & will never appear in LFS.

If you want to put cones & barriers out in the car park & play out your suicidal fantasy feel free to do so illepall

Better still a game of chicken on Blackwood straight might be right up your street. :ices_rofl
