I remember the scoobynet server....had some good races there.

Was it B2Z that had to drive the XF GTi and then XR GT until he could afford to get the GT Turbo at one time whilst we had the Turbo?

I bought this a few weeks ago and am just getting into it ATM.

So........

1. Nelsdir - Ta Ta
2. Paul172 - ProdriveP1
3. Keithrs - F**K OFF
4. StickyMicky - Sticky-Micky
5. Tonyflow - Tonyflow
6. V-Limited - LEUVEN

Is the above list like this> "LFS name" > "Number plate" ?

Just an idea but If so you could have a new list to make it simpler ( for me )
like this?

SN name > LFS name > LFS num plate

LEUVEN > V-Limited > LEUVEN

Are you sure that wasnt the XF GTR?

Is there any way you can view your own PB's in LFS does anyone know?

not sure, i sat in for a few of his laps

hes doing consistent 1.33`s most times
user ID is partyboy

ive hot 1.35 about 6 times in total now,
still not beat my 1.35.49 PB tho :mad
its frustrating, i can follow a faster lapping car around the track and see where im faster then them, but i can see them pull away in diffrent parts, not idea how there doing it, might just be diffrent setups???

the one im useing at the moment lets me brake really deep into the corner without locking up or understeering to much, which is letting me do sum badass over taking moves

the previous setup was more a "set the car up BEFORE the corner and fight the twitchyness" lol

ahhh now that would be telling


goto a online race watch a "fast" person, see if they put in decent times
then ask for there setup

at least then you know your at fault instead of the setup
if you leave it stock, you can practise knowing your doing sumthing wrong

but saying that, everybodys style is diffrent
i have about 3/4 diffrent setups for the xfgti at the moment
and im currently swapping between 2 of them to make a "hybrid" of the two

im doing 1.35`s with them both, but in diffrent styles, so im hopeing to crack a 1.34 with the best of both worlds

i think its only s2 now tbh

i jumped straight in and bought the full thing ages ago

B2Z the DFP is AWESOME in this game when its setup properlly
so much so that the DFP has been nowhere near the ps2 since i tried it (months)
its just been updated with a new patch that gives you the bmw sauber f1 car, but tbh its to much of a handfull for me, and i like my 4wd car to much

best to update the music files as well, while downloading the updates

i run a xp 2500 @ 2.23ghz
a 128mb 9700 pro and 1gig ram, so you are around the same as me, give or take

all ingame settings on full
Anti Aliasing x4
Anti Filtering x8

1024 x 784 = 32bit and around 80fps while hotlapping, lowest i have seen was a multi car pile up which was 30fps for a few secs, normally sits around 45-60 while racing online against others

had a look at the updated files tonight and installed the "becky rose" high res textures from lfsforum.net

and also the "real reflection mod" files

check this screen shot, the game looks awesome IMO
the difference is night and day
