Thanks.

I use a DFP.

It doesnt normally happen when ive been at the track for a while with hot hot tires, normally just happens from start to finish

Maybe I'll post a video of it happening.

USB. The actual Playstation 2 Console comes with USB ports, and that's where you would plug it in on a PS2.

Yes, I am new

Now, I've played a few "sims" (or what claim to be sims) before, mostly game-like, such as the gran turismo series, enthusia, etc. I am new to LFS and I can't figure out how to work some cars.

In the hatchback (X-something?) or especially in the lower end turbo RWD cars, I seem to be fine when doing ok, but once I mess up, it's all over, and the game seems to lose touch with reality and go into "tires have no tread or grip" mode.

Why is that? I can soften up the rear suspension and control the massive amount of oversteer somewhat, but once I lose a wee bit of traction in a turn, say understeer, I just lose all control, either countersteer too fast or too slow no matter what I do, and end up pulling off 3 complete turn arounds while going above 40-50mph.

Can anyone give me some pointers to help me out? I know I'm used to the games where TCS ABS ACS (I think those are the correct letters..) etc are my best friend.
Teams / etc?

Most other online games have teams / clans / guilds / groups or etc. I know that S2 isn't a mainstream game, but I've read that there are over 500 players currently.

Are there any teams like this? Maybe holding races against other teams in the same league? Seems like this game would be perfect for it.

the DFP comes with USB only, no PS2 plug ins.

To have it work with LFS, check out the Logitech site and try to find the downloadable driver you have to install to get it to work on your PC.

If you buy one and have any trouble finding the file, let me know. I use DFP with LFS and mine works more than great
S3 = more $?

I just recently bought my S1/S2 license and am loving the ever loving goodness out of this sim. It took me away from Enthusia

Anyway. When S2 is "finished" what will that mean?

And when "S3" is released, will it be released in full? Or will it be a alpha/beta etc? And will is cost another 12 lbs? (I'm american so I don't know where the pound key is lol ) ###

Anyway, great game, !!!

Point a to point b

I know this game is mainly a "race" game with laps on lookalike tracks, but what if there was a track, or multiple tracks, that dealt with point a to point b? It would mainly be for max speed and light turns if any.

Some of my favorite gams to race in are Gran Turismo and Enthusia (and of corse LFS) but I also really enjoy highway driving games like Wangan, Tokyo X Treme Racer, etc, just to kind of sit back and go fast.

Just a suggestion.
