Hi racers,

i have a plan to start an association of teams to make following things for new and existing leagues.

- a standard sporting codex for racers
i know there is a sporting codex in all your minds, but it never has been written down.

- partial standard regulations for leagues (interesting for new leagues)
i am thinking about a bunch of standard regulations which can be used to build your own regulations as easy as playing with lego blocks, so everyone has a chance to make a reliable rule book by themselves.
the procedure should be like this: choosing qualy mode, choosing race mode with pitstop regulation, car classes -> rule book ready for use!
maybe as a small honoration that they use this system, they can get a league certification.

- standard restrictor based classes (like babyUFR and GT2)
this is a thing i hate especially the gt2 class is different in all leagues.... ctra has another system as moe, moe has another one as gtcc.... for all leagues you have to build another setup and so on. my dream is that i dont have to make 3 sets for one car

- maybe you have suggestions?
its just an idea for now, so suggestions are welcome

So basically, you're trying to create a virtual FIA? ^^

I like the idea, but I'm sure every league has its reasons for having a certain restriction for the GT2 (per say).
Maybe you should try to speak with them and find a mutual agreement on the restrictions!

For the general rulebook (apart from the sporting guide), it's a good idea, however, please make sure to let it a bit free, so as to adapt to the evolutions of LFS, or the upcoming of new leagues .

Finally, maybe you could give your "organization", the idea of a "quality stamp"? Like "The MOE is supported by <insert your name here>". And I'm sure that it would be possible to make some money with sponsors
If you need some help, I'll be glad to join

basically yes, but it should be from racers for racers

would be hard, i know but everything is possible, right?

i want that this organisation should give only the base, not more, but good enough that customization should be as easy as possible.

this i meant with a certification ...i think about sponsoring when the project starts

my two cents are bold

Then I think it is a good project.
Check your PMs

As long as you don't force people to use cockpit veiw, it's good.
Other than that I wish you good luck, some goodies in the details there and hope it get's done

is not at german lfsmanual

maybe someone knows the writer of this?

Quote from Trekkerfahrer :

Personally I always look at the English one . It is guaranteed to be the most up-to-date one and translating the whole (with each patch changing) manual into all these languages seems like a mammoth task. Actually I'm kind of annoyed lately that the LFSW link at the top of the forum automatically redirects me to the German one, but I guess that function is useful for new members. Thankfully you can turn that off by setting the browser language/locale to English, as I just found out

No idea who wrote the original rules, but this all emerged from a long time ago where there were no licensed servers (because there was no version besides the demo available) and this was the only way to bring some order to the rowdy demo crowd. Once the licensed servers emerged CRC kind of died because at that point it was assumed (and quite realistic) that the CRC rules are the common rules for all licensed drivers. However as LFS grew more and more people became unaware of these common sense rules which leads us to the current day where licensed servers still are on average better than demo ones, but even here you have to cherry pick the good ones from the pile of crap that is the rest.
