Quote from wE1l :

used to drive it in F1C, nearly impossible to remember the whole track, some corners are just so like each other, never completed a timed lap.

I like f1 very very much,so i can remember all corners of all the 2004 season 's track.If there is an offical f1 track in lfs ,I think i can get used to it very very soon..

PS: I had driverd Nordschleife in GPL,it make me crazy for a few days before i knew that i cant finish one single lap without any damage...

Quote from ajp71 :

Depends what you define as a corner.

Ahh...good to know. Thats alot like my local track Road America, which calls a few short dog leg bends a corner.

sorry i meant to type 173 which is the official number. and as was said, it all depends what you call a corner

Yep I'm sure GPL said 193 but that may have been a typo.

I'm German, I visited the Nordschleife two years ago and saw a GT Race at the Start / Finsh Line. After seeing the videos, ksa_land posted I definitly will a Nordschleife in LFS. This vid is f***** awsome, I'm out of me.
I think I will travel to the racetrack this summer again, pay 15 bucks and drive with my car on it
You can do it, but just when there are no races.

\CALLVOTE ALL PRO-NORDSCHLEIFE

Here's a Group C car ride... full lap but it's part of the legendary 1000 km race in '83 review. Remember to download all the 6 parts, file names are '1000km83Nrburgring.partX.rar'.

Those are awesome but I think the best incar vid is still the M3 GTR qualification lap couple of years ago. Probably everyone is seen that video already. The sense of speed is just so terrifying (because the incar cam swings all the time ):

hell yeah, this sound and speed of the M3 GTR is the best I have seen so far. It simply rocks.

Has anyone a high qualitiy version of it?

Quote from molocco :

@boss: ah, i see.
ok its more like the nurburgring is the hole thing and the nurburgring-nordschleife is just a specific part of it, but in the old days the nordschleife practicaly was the whole nurburgring (or 90% of it) and it think it was even a longer version before that but it was no dedicated race track, back then.

peace mo

aite, thanks for that


Anyway, if there ever will be a real life track in LFS, I'm pretty shure it will be something like Silverstone, where you got more combos, and its English

There are 3 tracks I would love to see in LFS...

The Ring.. goes without saying
Bathy.. The hight changes in this track are mental and the final run down the hill means you have to balance the car and brakes to perfection to stop in time for the tight left
Isle of Man TT.. 27 miles of tight, twisty country roads around the island. Saw a film once of a bike lap where the rider managed to get an average speed for the lap of 122mph, think he topped 190mph on some sections

There is also one road that would make a great point to point track. Any 10+ mile section of the Amalfi Coast Road in Italy would be an absolute joy in LFS. I am sure anyone that knows this road would love to be able to blast along it knowing it was empty.

I more liked the nordschleife in LFS than the BMW F1 car. It starting to be an F1 sim instead of car sim.
Just cross our fingers and hope they are going to make the other BMW models aswell for LFS :-)

just explain how is lfs turning into an f1 sim?illepall you have 1 f1 car in lfs!!!! and then like 5 roadcars and other saloon cars. Just because lfs has one f1 car doesnt justify your comment that lfs is turning into an f1 sim. Its nice to have it in the single seater collection if you ask me...

mad

i have been on this raod (albeit in a coach!), but it would only be good single player, and would still be VERY narrow!

What's with the narrowness, two cars fit side by side just fine.

Staying on-topic, here is a long and detailed debate on if it would be feasible to license Nordschleife for LFS: http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.php?t=83933

Costa Di Amalfi is in GT4 aswell and is a great track but to narrow. It would be fun but the nordschleife would be more fun

tbh, with some of the comments about comparing, yes, there will be people saying(if we get the ring) that its crap, and how come i can go 20-30sec faster in a car on lfs, as opposed to a similar car in rl, well, you also have to factor in the armco in rl. in a gme, you have no fear, but, and back me up anyone who has also been to the ring, its scary as hell, thinking that one patch of oil from a morning session could effectivle kill you, cause it may have gone un noticed, or whatever.

agreed, last time i checked, theres no shift+r in my car

I don't want Nordschleife. I want the whole course!

Quote from afastest :

Nordschleife is not such a great race track, it is narrow and very long.

illepallObviously you never had the joy of experiencing the Nordschleife.

I can prove you wrong. I am such a person.

Quote from neo force KP61 :

I have to agree with that too .

BTW, most of the nicest cars are tested by the manufacturers at the 'ring.

S2000, Impreza, EVO, Corvette and tons of other cars are perfected by exaustive testing on the ring.
