ok, got the replais

here is the one when P. Closset disconnected in the pitlane
http://www.sim-racing.be/files/AS5_race_24H_0R_0F_2.rar

also, P. Closset get disconnected when stopping the car in pits when I took over him yesterday, and I had to join race, so the last lap was'nt count

we got this problem at about 17.00 yesterday, when chaning drivers from P. Closset to F. Pallier

well, sorry for his bad english :P

so I think he want to say that with this tracker, when you get disconnected 2 times in a short time, you get 2 laps penalties, even if you (and the leader too) din't had the time to do at least one if you didn't diconnect

in a logical way, the tracker should count the lap you've done only when you finished it, and if you get diconnected, then, the lap will not count

edit : didn't see your answer before posting

thanks scawen, that reassures me

@Axus : I don't find LFS hard to drive (it would be the opposite in fact, look @ my times, and results in ESCC )
the problems with the tyre is in the grip, and the way cars are loosing it
in LFS, the loss of grip, and it's recovery seems to be linear, you loose it step by step, and you recover it step by step, and the problem of gip at low speed should comes from this
in a real car, especially with slicks tyres, the loss of grip comes suddenly, and it is possible to catch up with only small errors
so in lfs, to be fast we are always sliding a lot, and it makes the tyres warm
look at real racing, they are not sliding like this (of course they slide a bit )

I known traductions are important for someone that don't speak english, but physics are more important for pro sim-racers.
Of course you get some new licenced drivers from Russia, Greek or others due to thoses new translations, but on the other hand, you losed many high level sim-racers, and you deprives yourselves of the players coming from others simulations where physics are good (not as good as lfs ones in the technic, maybe...) like GPL or Nascar 2K3

your decision to make translations before physics was criticized by many sim-racers on other forum, but that's your decision, and it's your game, but I just wanted you known the opinion of many guys about LFS

finally, I'll not play LFS untill a major physic update arrives, and it will be great if it happen before netKar Pro is out

yes maybe, but I have impressions it will never comes
A physic update is more important than new codepages for the credebility of LFS IMO ...

hum, sorry to say that, but could we hope for a physic correction (tyre,aero...) now ? I think this MUCH more important than codepages and other stuff that should have been added in last ...
or should I have to wait for netKar Pro for a good physic ?

sorry, but we were waiting for a physic update for a long time in ESCC, and it never happenned
ESCC will be finished Tuesday, and I'll not play LFS after that until a new physic
I love the tracks, I love cars, but actuals physics sux then the game could be perfect with good tyres

I agree, it would be more logical to remove only the lap of the disconnect.
But this is just my opinion ...
