thanks to Crady and Ant0niS, sorted now.

I read through the posts first but clearly skipped over those posts...lol

Many thanks

I have installed the latest version from the first post post and when i attempt to run it from desktop shortcut i get an error message "pic below post".

I would like to to test this app, can someone advise on a fix for this problem.

I am running Vista home premium.

I beleive we we are still waiting for the last 2 rounds the XRT and RAC? Why do these results take so long?

Sorry for moaning but i like to look at them soon after the race so i can see what is going on?

Aid. I have put you into the temporary T-1 team together with Martin as this is a team competition in this season. Otherwise tell me, if there´s a reason for you not to be there.

AID can join REDMIST RACING if he wants to?? Just let me know.

Now that we have LFS patch Z is it at all possible to show the other information that was not available before, like tyre temp etc?

Quote from renchix :

I`m waiting too!

if someone can send me the MPR files for the races i can do the results??

points for race on 07/10/08???

Is The Race Sheduled For Tonight Still Goint Ahead???

Quote from peterules :

Anyone Thought of the Champcar yet? It would be a good idea to have a turbocharged open wheeler! it would open up a whole new feel to some of the more open trackslike KY & WE! Also, It might make a good oval car as the F08 and BF1 are getting slightly boring... Here are some stats:

Displacement - 161 cubic inches, 2.64 liters
Cylinders - V-8
Weight - 325 pounds (148 kilograms)
Horsepower - Approximately 900 hp
Maximum rpm - 15,000
Aspiration - Turbocharged
Valves - Four per cylinder
Cams - Dual camshafts per cylinder bank
Fuel delivery - Fuel injection

Just sounds like fun to me - i also enjoyed the rFactor mod too but it would be a lot better in LFS

Are they realy that light (148KG) or is that just for the engine on its own?

Quote from renchix :

I see mistake, and i think in main race Alias team didn`t finished than they won`t be have points for 3rd main race..

i queried this also but in the rules it says they get 1 point less than last finisher!!

I understand this there so if someone get disconnected they do not lose out which i feel is fair, but that last race they just messed around and didnt even try to compete or finish with proper sportsmanship. This i think is not fair?

Just a quick point, the ranking numbers are out of sync, REDMIST RACING are ranked 4th but the number in the box says 5.

Thanks

Quote from Humbleridderen :

If we start having both team points and individiual points, would that be better?

And in that case, should it be from the start of the league or from now on?

All suggestions are welcome

A shame to hear Sonne will not continue, i have had some really good battles with him.

I for one would be happy for the scoring to be amended into both DRIVER and TEAM as i seem to have trouble getting my other team mates to race so at least that way i will still get somewhere for my own efforts!

Is the ALIAS team going to continue as a whole or are they stopping as a team??

Something i think which would be fun is something similar to that of the Lotus Elise/Exige or Vauxhall/Opel Vx220,

It could be loosley based (performance wise) on the LX4 only with the option of road legal part slick or full race slicks.

Would be a great handling car and would look like a proper racer...

spec something like

140 - 180bhp n/a or Turbo or even both (2 separate cars)
Circa 600-800kgs
Rear wheel drive
Mid Engine possibly

I know we have the RAC which is a real car but lets face it a Lotus would be better handling car, it certainly give it some more variety and would probably have an appeal to everyone worldwide rather than some of the more specific cars like dragster and wrc cars some people have mentioned.

Hello.

I am struggling to connect to the master server to login to S2.

I have read so many other topics but they are just confusing me.

I have tried the two tests i could do and my results are in http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=29454&page=6

The other thing that i don't understand is im hearing i have to open certain ports, etc...

Can anyone give me more detail on what i need to do?

It has been way over 8 months now since i played and i came back to this :nol2:lol

Thanks
John

I assume you fixed the problem as at the time of writing i see you are racing online!!!

Quote from Humbleridderen :

IMPORTANT:

The race 09 September has been moved to Tuesday 16t September, due to problems with my time to administrate the league, because of a new work. I will maybe change the calendar in the future for fitting better to my work situation.

I come back to that later on!

This is good news for RMR as Peter80 is back in sweden for another 2 weeks working and will be back in time for the next round

more time to practice then!!!

Quote from thesloth :

There has been much talk of foul deeds and general naughtyness during this weeks race meeting at Aston Cadet so I though I would at least try to redress the balance by highlighting some 'Gentlemen Racers' in the Red Mist Racing team.

I had the pleasure of battling with JustinGT5 in the early stages of race 2 and later on with U41K STB. Both racers showed both excellent car control during close racing and awareness of who was around (for the most part ).

It can be difficult, in the heat of battle, to admit that another racer has the better line or quicker exit and easy to think 'I'm going to keep my foot down' or 'I'm just going to turn in'. This usually ends up with both drivers spinning off and a post race slagging match. I was nice to race with guys that could realise that they had lost the corner and would yield it to the other driver (usually coming back on the next corner ).

At this point I should probably apologise to U41K for getting a little too defensive coming out of the last corner on one lap ...sorry . Never said I practice what I preach.

Anyway, on to the next round....congrats to the winners this time round...may your clutches burn out and your next turd be a hedgehog!!

Sloth,

I have to say a big thank you for your comments regarding my team it is nice to hear that genuine racecraft and a sporting attitude is appreciated.

Also i must say i had loads of fun racing with you and the battle was immense yet courtious so i take my hat off to you Got to admit i did struggle to fend you off as you were consistently quicker than me but serious fun trying to stay ahead.

The XFG always provides some classic battle racing in LFS and i am really looking forward to the next round in the XRG, rear drive action bring it on.

Quote from Humbleridderen :

It´s sweptech, who is making the points and he is telling me, that he is working with it to work as he would like.
There are some difficulties, but I am sure he will find a solution very soon.

Just did a test and i used LFS points to show the standings from one of the races in round 1 and it was easy to use and read, something as basic as that would do the trick, stats are good but people are more interested in the points arent they??

The spreadsheet style from last season was good, but my opinion is that it was a little busy and quite difficult to read, personally i think a basic points standing for the teams would suffice?

have a look at the attached.

i have not shown the average points that are going to be used as i couldnt be bothered to work it out for an example, also ignore the mistake in the points allocations for positions, i was being quick.

I couldnt upload the example as HTML so i had make it a PDF, but doing this lost the colours???

Race 2 - Sprint and main - multiple laps:

andro.something dont know how to drive other than hotlapping, it seems. He crashes several drivers from our team and finally me.

Im done with these races...

also took me out in both race 1 and 2. completely unaware of other drivers around him, admittedly Lag doesnt help.

Quote from peter80 :

Please sign me up peter80 REDMIST RACING

Can you please add my team mate:

Team: REDMIST RACING UK
Username: PETER80

we should be good to rock and roll in the next round as we now have 3 drivers.

Quote from Franke :

Alias would like to split and have 2 teams as we are 8 drivers:

Alias A:
MZWizard
Sweptech
Evilgenius
Franke

Alias B:
gunner olsson
Astro [ BJRL ]
PZL
azlan608

Regards
Franke... Click

see you guys have lots of drivers surely one of you guys can join RMR, i know AZLAN608 didnt have a team before??

Quote from Humbleridderen :

Justin, if you don´t find another driver now, you can race single under your own team name for 3 races, but without gaining points, because there is no fair way to do that.

If another single driver turns up, you can try to race with him. t-1 or in your own team.

Surely if i race on my own i should get whatever points my finishes deserve as this is going to be much lower than that of the other teams with more than one driver scoring points???

which means i am at a disadvantage on my own but this is better than doing 3 races for NO POINTS which really seems pointless as if i do not score points i may aswell sit out the the races until my team mate comes back anyway?
