The clutch overheat seems to be exponential. Once it begins to slip, it's as good as impossible to prevent it from completely overheating unless you retire or ease off to the point that you may as well retire. Needs a bit more work

I posted in the patch thread about the clutch issue. I think its a little too rudiment right now for the whole of the LFS community and there should be a way for a Server admin to disable it should that be what they want to do.

i think also, one should be able to get to the pits and have some way that your clutch can be cooled down some. That would take quite a bit of time but it's better than going at tick-over around a track for 4 laps until your clutch cools enough and you cause a load of crashes as a result.

Any drift server or Endurance event is basically screwed in a number of cars.

There will be more Depending on CTRA workloads ofcourse, that is taking more and more of a precident over my racing. There is so much that could be done through the system, if only there were more hours in a day!

On the other side of this too is that I am no longer on the factory floor building magnets for Siemens. I have been ushered in with the Process engineers and am looking at more of an engineering role. I have found that my Associates degree (thats three courses away from being finished...) is the equivilent to a HNC so I can get into a full engineering position.

That being said I don't know where my time will be if/when I start schooling up again. As much as I love racing it may take a backseat while I get this sorted... not to mention Aimee and I want kids in the near future.
