It's been a little over a week now since the new patch 0.6B was released. We have re-checked all 55000 hotlaps with this new version, because it contains better collision detection. So many South City hotlaps have been deleted now, due to wall-hits.
Around 2000 hotlaps have been removed. Not just because of wall-hits, but pit-stops during hotlaps are no longer allowed either. And some replays went OOS in the new version.

We have decided to only start accepting hotlaps driven with version 0.6B now, because of these differences.

A simple question with a hopefully simple answer

The CTCC had a fantastic start this past Tuesday with the 1st Round of the Championship. Only the fastest 31 cars out of 53 qualifyers made it to the grid with 27 cars finishing Race 1 and 28 cars finishing Race 2. Both races were non-stop action all over the field with side-by-side battles almost every lap somewhere in the track. In the end the winner of the 1st round was 69-E.Leyton who was 4th in Race 1 and 1st on Race 2. 33-F.Solis and 23-C.Persico were close behind tied for second overall for the round.

Dear LFS Racers,

We are pleased to announce a new version of Live for Speed with many updates and improvements. The new tyre physics model is still in development, so this version uses the old tyres but with an improved collision system, open track configurations, free view mode, and much more. It provides some interesting new features for LFS racers, while we continue our development. Thanks to our forum members for testing over the last eight weeks!

There will be an XFG mini series held during July and August. A test race on June 30 with 4 points paying events held during the 4 subsequent weeks on Thursday. Each event will have 15 minutes qualifying followed by 2 roughly 20 minute races, with the second race requiring a pitstop. Signups and discussion in the forum Rules are found here.

The Schedule is:

The last round of the Tiger Express Z30 Festival took place on the longest layout of PMD’s open configurations pack, Kyoto International GT Long(KY33)Even with LFS’ second fastest ever car – the FO8 – no one could lap this layout in less than 3 minutes and 12 seconds.

After the longest track of the season, the OWRL F1 circus headed to one of the trickiest, shortest and slowest one: South City Long.

If first and fourth place runners of round 1, Sascha Riegler and Tommy Ostgaard from Sonicrealms A didn't show up, they got replaced nicely. Indeed, spdo Racing made a remarked return, with 2009 and 2010 champion Adam Wisniewski alongside Matias Pikkarainen.

Hello racers,

Ligue FR is currently on mid season, and all drivers will take a well deserved break with summer holidays.

The fourth and penultimate round of the Tiger Express Z30 Festival took place on the low-downforce Aston Central Reversed(AS11R) configuration, with GTRs. A simple but challenging track, requiring a good compormise between handling and speed. A nice field of 25 cars was present this time, sign of an healthy and steady turn-up rate.

Round 3 was held on the Kyoto National infield-only configuration(KY21), with TBOs. For the only time of the season, this round had a two heats system, which provided more door to door action than usual.

Rudy van Buren came back stronger after a difficult round 2, and set pole, leading an ineX Racing 1-2-3: championship leader Joe Holmes was alongside him in front row, in front of series newcomer Philip Ellis. “Best of the rest” was reigning Formula Ford World Champion Dennis Lind(Dennis .Inc) in 4th.

OWRL F1 kicked off for its 5th ever annual season last Sunday, making it one of the oldest LFS league still in activity. For the 4th time in a row, the season opener was held at Aston GP. The big absent of the day was 2009 and 2010 champion Adam Wisniewski. The Polish driver is expected to come back later in the season, but he very probably won't get a 3rd title in a row.

The Tiger Express Z30 Festival is a league created in late April 2011, aiming to propose some racing on some of the new tracks opened by the brand new Z30 patch, in a fair, fun, but nevertheless formal athmosphere. A wide selection of cars will be used in the inaugural season, from the STDs to the FO8.

The first round of the 2011 LFSCART Season took place at a track from the original season - Aston North. It was brought back to the series after going well in season one. This season sees record signups, and set an all-time LFSCART attendance record (excepting the Kyoto 500) with 45 drivers attempting to qualify for the race.

The race started under clear skies, with Jarno Lehikoinen on pole. Off the grid, Simon Cattell got a brilliant start to take the lead before reacing Turn 1. Turn 1 was clean, but chaos ensued after Turn 2 and through Turn 3.

The seventh and last round of Apex Cup season 2 was held on Friday the 20th on the highspeed circuit Kyoto Ring GP Long with the GTR class.

In qualifying it was J.Basford from My3id Gaming in the FZR that set a fast time on his first attempt with a 2:09.97. J.Lehikoinen from My3id Gaming 2 came in 2nd with the XRR. Later in the session it was C.Mitchel that put in a 2:09.88, which was good for a second place in the end. J.Basford managed to improve his time on his last possible lap, setting a great lap of 2:09.43 which was enough for pole-position.

Hi,
We are all set for race 3 at West Hill Rev (WE1R).
Race Control has been getting bigger and better. I have a program called TouchBuddy which make's my laptop a race control panel. I will put a pic in the attachments to show this.
For this I will soon be getting a touch panel overlay which just goes over my screen then I calibrate it then it is a touch screen.

The Livestream of Round 7 will start this friday at 18:00 UTC (20:00 CEST), including live commentary!

Schedule
Date: 20th of May.

After a very strong first season half, 3id J.Lehikoinen got the job done and secured the back-to-back drivers' title, despite missing round 4. With 8 wins and 2 second places in 10 races, no one could rivalise with him this season. He could clearly make 3 in a row if he decides to take part to season 19.

Meanwhile, Playerzone Italia gets their maiden teams' championship, in their first season. The Italian guys had a very consistant season, and drivers Naselli and Bartolotta were often the "best of the rest" behind Lehikoinen.

The FZ50 GTR (FZR) will have 20kg of ballast for the 7th and final round of season 2.

Please don't forget to post your high-resolution skins on our forum 24hours before the round. Failing to do this, will result in a drive-through penalty in the sprint race.
