Here is a super-clean, fairly simple skin. I made some slight modifications in the spirit of a facelift or special edition of the FZ.

It might not handle any differently, but I feel a little classier driving this model around!

The colour can be changed; It also looks great in Ferrari red or pearl white.

Browse For Speed is compatible with X, if that's the sort of thing you're talking about...

Quote from XCNuse :Plus why would I want to show off that old render anyways?

Because it's freakin' awesome! I voted LX8 because I like driving road cars, but after seeing that render, I want an LXR. As well.

Speakers are obviously very important, but I'd think about a better sound card first, if you're really serious about wanting quality. Sound Blaster cards are good for games but not clarity (yes, even the Audigy series).

I run a M-Audio FastTrack USB. It's a budget model, but sounds amazing.

Those are some spectacular shots! So nice and sharp, too. Well done!

Brings back fond memories of watching truck racing at Sydney's Oran Park when I was young.

Nice work on the anorexicpillow and clownpaint sites, very attractive.

I saw a new Renaultsport Megane F1 Team on the road the other day and was in awe. This is a simple XF skin replica.

Is it still true that the AI won't learn anything if their names are changed?

Edit: Hold on, isn't LFS an online game?!
SCOOP! Spy shots of the RB4 facelift!

An eagle-eyed reader sent us these pictures of an RB4 mule on the streets of South City. This is believed to be the much anticipated image-changing facelift for the underperforming sports model.

While the bodywork changes are fairly subtle, a hi-po powerplant is rumoured to sitting under the bonnet. The four-wheel drive's two-litre turbo engine has met with mixed reviews, forcing the manufacturer to upgrade the turbo and exhaust systems.

Brilliant! Very well produced.

Turn smoothly, use the whole width of the track, brake early and accelerate late.

When I was first teaching myself the FZR, I would spin on the exit of every corner until I realised that I was only thinking about getting power to the wheels rather than taking the car through the corner. Try counting to three when you'd normally accelerate, then put the power on slowly.

What sort of controller are you using?

Quote from COOP201 :
2) I got a DFP. I downloaded the logitech program to go with it. when i go to options to set the controls. I can not set the pedels. when i click to set the gas, nothing happens and i have to hit delete to be able to do anything. I also have it set on separate axis but when i go to the axis settings on the side only one bar moves for the gas and brake.

The accelerator and brake run on just one axis, so you'll need to have it set to 'Combined'.

Spell it right, it's ReMxier!

And couldn't you have added this to the relevant thread (which is still active)?

It would indeed be fun...

Here's the map of the road I educated myself on/ It's in Kuringai Chase National Park in Sydney, it runs a loop down to a marina (with cafe ) and back uphill, all the while offering about a one-foot margin of error either side of the road.

With the bumps and occasional high-speed sections it can feel like the Nurburgring (if you're imaginative), but you're only maxing out at about 80-100 km/h (50-60 mph) - a good thing for safety and your license's sake (limit is 60 km/h).

I came close to hitting a kangaroo there a while back and have since been taking it a little slower. Hmm... animals in the next LFS update?

That's the first time I've ever laughed out loud at one of those bananas! Perfectly deployed.

Ho-ly sheeet.

That is some spectaculary stupid driving. Only two things save it: The accent we all enjoyed in Trainspotting, and the Clubman (LX4) crash at 3:30 - shows how realistic LFS is, because it's easy to do in-game.

I always thought I'd go to a track day to get away from idiots in other cars... illepall

Rest in peace, Peter Perfect.

Here's a short biography and some career highlights.

As was noted before, gone but most certainly not forgotten.
