Anyone still thinks S3 will happen ...

Live for Speed News
(More news at LFS World)
added Thu, 11th July, 2013 19:00



So guys ...
Latest news is nearly1 year old ...
Scawen cant run this any more, either he invites some pros to get it up2date or LFS will continuing its slow vanish.

Been on iRacing for 3 months ... LFS is soo out of date now

I would gladly pay for a new version of LFS that's competitive with iRacing, but it wont happen with Scawen in charge

To contribute in advance, sorry to say but no way.
Money in advance wont change the dev's attitude to work for the perfect sim and nothing between it. Develop it step by step is the only way to keep it alive.

Although I'm not in any NDR league at the moment I agree 100% with you Deko
I think a good summary is this quote from your post:

Quote :Please, work to self-police driving standards, be more sporting, be less aggressive, keep your emotions in check. Contact is of course always possible, but avoid it at all costs.

Guess this goes for the ongoing RN leagues as well ... there was some very aggressive driving last Indy-race on KY ...

Will post a link to this forum thread on our team site

Dammed, I totally missed this event :weeping::weeping::weeping::weeping:
NDR Nascar events just rocks, even if u dont get to do the race u get so many nice races in the practice sessions

Usuallay Cawwa (Bertil) keeps track of these events, but he's been busy driving his stupid bike , so i guess he has missed this as well

Man i'm so jealous now on all you who managed to quali into the race ... Have FUN

Keep it Clean!

Better put my rookie-stripes on again!
Started race with KY nascar REVERSED set
First i thought it was me just joining from GT3 cup not used to the car ... but on lap 3 right tyres were just burning .. then i realised the fatal misstake.

So i had to go to pitlane, reconfiguring my whole setup without visiting the garage ... took some time i can assure you.

Well, lesson learned, that's what practise sessions are meant for

I have to drive one stint at the GT3 event first, so i be on around 18:15 UTC
Looking forward to this session with mandatory pit, put some more strategic thinking into the race

Also have my new skin without the rookie stripe :-)

Pretty good event at the 2:nd half, had som nice bumping/drafting with some guys

S. Martin, I think we had made it to the top cars ahead of us if we had worked together instead of hotlapping by our own ...
Don't be afraid to dance with me guys, I'm sure faithful to my dancing partner, don't usually run away

Thanx Deko for this practise session ... hopefully we get more green laps next time, cant understand why everybody has to win the race on the first green lap :detective
Also cant understand the behaviour of the driver that was banging all cars on his side while he was claiming his position and warming tyres on the long yellow flag period around lap 40+ ... stupid

Btw, saw u were discussing time zones, this is the very best timezone page on the web, it has all:
http://timeanddate.com

The meeting planner on this site is the very best I ever seen:
http://timeanddate.com/worldclock/meeting.html
Sure saves my day at work, planning meetings with Sweden, India and Brazil (all with different/none winter/summertime) at the same occasion

CU at next race practise session

I will probably attend, depends on another race event I'm supposed to do admin job at, but it will probably be cancelled as it looks now ...

- Is the practise session Qual a hotlap quali or free driving qual?
- Reset allowed at quali?
- If more than 30 attending the Q, only the fastest 30 will go further to the race. Does this mean that if you don't make it to the race, this practise session is not counted for those drivers?

EDIT: Deko, might be a good idea to update the "Practice Sessions Register" thread as well ... might be more than me that subcribes to that tread to get a email when the tread is updated in order not to miss a practise session :-)

Maybe you could create a locked tread were you just post the practise session ongoing schedule without any discussions. Then it will very easy to find that important info

THANX NDR for a FUN and GREAT event
These NASCAR events are the the most FUN events on LFS at the moment

Since I'm a NASCAR Rookie with rookie stripes on my rear bumper (car #44), main approach was to stay out of trouble, succeeded fairly good I think! I can recall one mistake when I after a restart(?) missed a car on my right side and had a slight contact. Sorry for that whoever it was, but I recall I was the one suffering the most from it

Special thanks to my 2 faithful pushers, #23 J.Dohnalík and #991 S. Martin. When car #23 pushed me I didn't feel it, was just amazing, just driving and holding the line as usual ... sorry that I left you behind, but i couldn't connect to you again when you lost me ...

991 took me to place 14 after that, also a great pusher ... don't think we should have made that switch thou on the lap before the last one, since we lost to much momentum on it, and that 3-car train approaching. I fully understand that you wanted to be ahead of me at the checker flag, but I had already planned to let you pass me before the finish

Once again, GREAT and FUN event.
More of this stuff please

What's the link to the streaming replay?

Less than 30% af the drivers showed up at today's quali events ... really bad respect for the race organisation imo!

Should be just common sense to to notify Deko if you are not about to anticipate! Really can't understand this ignorance to people putting a lot of their free time to make these great events come true!

Thanx Deko and all u other guys in NDR for arranging these LFS Nascar events
