Quote from Blowtus :

How would you balance them? Over a long race distance or short? The fwd's destroy tyres in a hurry. The class isn't balanced as is anyway, it's not like you get very good multi car action happening.

UFR/XFR class isn't balanced? You obviously don't know what you're talking about. In one of the leagues that are running now (LFS-GT, one race left) we've had plenty of races where UFR and XFR ran almost identical times in race. Sure XFR world record was maybe a tad faster, but that didn't matter in race. Balancing the car classes takes time anyways.

By the way they don't destroy tyres in a hurry and we have lots of good multi car action

+1 for an RWD in this class. Why not?

I wrecked a wrecker in an attempted suicide.

You can always try the Norwegian LFS community :detective

I'm unsure, but I don't reckon Schumi did it on purpose. What bothers me though is his and the Ferrari team's reaction after the incident...

I'd like
- A ~190 bhp lightweight non-turbo rwd for the XFR/UFR - class (a BMW 120i lookalike perhaps?)
- An awd car for the LRF - class (An Audi S4,S6 lookalike?)

A bit off topic, but I would also like to see RB4, and especially XRR and FXR given more torque (bigger displacement with no increased bhp).

Could anyone provide the replays from the whole race?

Quote from LRB_Aly :

Well I didn't try to overtake this car in the eau-rouge section

I wasn't referring to you in my post, I was just sharing my personal experience from this event

I drove two stints in the XFR and my general impression is that the majority of the GTR drivers were careful enough to overtake at the most suitable places on the track. As a small gtr (XFR) driver I never expected GTRs to try overtaking in crazy places like the eau-rouge, and the last chicane before start-finish - that would be far too risky. Also I think it's wrong to give the GTRs top priority when overtaking. I prefer to look at it as cooperation; gtrs sacrifice a bit by going a bit wide in a corner, while GTRs loose some time by taking inside line. Simple.

Cyber skins for this event (with names :P )

About the Aston config. There are 6 unused turn combinations as Aston is today. I guess the one combo used in the screenshot (tires3.jpg) is a mixture of cadet and historic .

tires3.jpg is most probably a new Aston config.

After a couple of races at the Muroc servers tonight my first impression is that this is going to be quite a challenge for both car-classes.
"GT2" class is approx. 20 secs a lap slower than "GT1". And the lack of downforce of GT2 class means there's going to be complications in the fast corners. Overtaking will definately be the biggest and most difficult issue.

Very nice vid Darkone

Nice clip, DoN. Your work is amazing

Hi.
Cyber Racing LFS division became 1 year old the 20th february, which was celebrated with redesign of the website and completely new skins, made by Sracer. A week prior to the actual "birthday", we decided to start making a movie too, for showing the new skins in action. The movie took a while to produce due to schoolwork and personal obligations but now it's finally completed

So, if you want to see it, download it from LFS movies pit

Congratulations

Difficult to predict now who's going to win the whole cup. Every team that has made it this far has shown themselves as superfast and/or superconsistent.

I think Slovenia, Estonia and Finland from group 1 will meet Czech, Germany and Belgium from group 2 in the finals, and I have a slight feeling that Slovenia will emerge victorious.

congrats and good luck to no_one and T7R

Grats Gooden Good luck with the new team

England were in the same group as us (Norway). Not a single brit showed up at any race :owl:

Great vid Jet, your work is truly amazing!

Ok, I installed Dr. Divx and use that for encoding. But still, when exporting the project (in premiere) to an .avi file, for a 1 minute video I get a 25 meg file, with actually worse quality than most divx movies have, so if any of you have a tip or would like to share your encoding/compression settings I'd be really happy
