Hey Guys
I got it and did a few laps with the F1 V8 and I have to say it is not bad.
It is going to be fun.
They are a little touchy but once you get used to that and the slicks heat up man are they fun.
This sim really responce and I am going to have fun on our month vacation. :lol:

Worth the $24.00 dollars in my opinuion

Hey Guys
I have to say it is very good but I am a bit disapointed that there are only 3 tracks/ I asked around at the LFS forum and the news about tracks is not good. There is no mention of a track editor coming so there wont be any track mods. There will be more tracks for LFS3 but that is a long time away. :(

errrm hitman there is a track editor comin for lfs and what ya mean only 3 tracks ? aston has 5 variation on it south city has 5 , fern bay has 3 , the black wood track also and also koyoto and westhil that neraly 15 . maybe theymight be different variations but all different and enjoyable and tbh i realy dont care for f1 tracks anymore i more interested in an open wheel racer with good netcode and people playng it

Hmmm,
Well I have seen problems with lfs2 and GTR and f1c and rfactor when a dial up joins in.No way you can stop the bandwidth from being dispersed properly.True some games adjust the latency better than others but the netcode has yet to stop dispersing bandwidth to the dialups.I raced with 25 people yesterday in GTR then all of a sudden a guy comes in with a ping of 1200.That made everyone elses pings shoot up over 200 more than normal.I also saw that in rfactor yesterday.It started synching with only 4 people playing.The real fact is that all games should have a minimum bandwidth option for the rooms.As for the tracks.I am sure lfs2 will come out with a track editor eventually.As for GTR well...I enjoy it the most because I have 57 tracks installed..LOL...and I race with a bunch of comedians...hehehe...so running in GTR league in summer break is fun until rfactor releases the f1 mod.I hope it is all it is cracked up to be.
Lfs2 sounds like ablast but with only a handful of tracks I would just wait for the track editor to show up.I still think it would be worth the money though :D :D :D

Hello
Hey Limp I must have looked at this thing wrong before or something but yes they are about 15 tracks. :lol:
And I don't care if they are F1 C tracks or what I just want more varition then what I first thought. I like learning new tracks I dont have a problem with that.
As for Ovals well your right they are boring but hey I will give it a go around. :lol:

I should be around tommorow I am hoping for a early day if you are around we can get it on.

And Carr it is worth the money it is a lot of fun.
