You may be interested in Live For Speed NASCAR, from New Dimension Racing here is their 7th Annual Kyoto 250. It basically includes the XRT on KY1, it's not as easy as it might sound but it is rather fun. I did it last year and athough I didn't make it to the race, I still had a good time. Driving in circles doens't sound interesting, but it's the very close racing, the crashes and suspense that makes racing what it is right? I'll be taking part again this year, only under AA colors and my adopted number 49
A few more details, the race takes place on the last Sunday this month (March 30th) at 17:45 UTC. Up to that point there are practice sessions of which you must gain credit for atleast 3 usually every day or few days depending on Deko's work schedule. All you need is an uploaded hotlap within 103% of the WR and over 175 clcoked laps on KY1 (easily done at the practice sessions or in SP / other MP servers).
I'd like to discuss the GTi Trophy 2014. This would be the 2nd year this event as run, if you want to read more about it, take a look here at 2013's announcement >HERE<. This thread mainly contains me asking questions that crossed my mind about holding the GTiT again this year, mainly to the more "experienced" AA management but anyone is free to give constructive opinions and advice.
Immediately you will notice it was hosted with Genuine Racing, which is my major concern:
As we are all aware we recently split from GenR after a conflict of interest, so that makes me think we don't have any strong enough relationship form me to propse hosting this event with them this year, would I be right in this?
After seeing the number of sign ups with GenR's most recent GTMasters 2014, they have 150 sign ups which suggests to me S2 isn't exactly dead yet so I could get attendance this year for a 32 slot grid of XFGs & XRGs. I'd like to go for a second season of this event as I had a lot of fun doing it and after racer reviews from last year most seemed to enjoy it a lot too; I also have a couple extras planned for this year should it go ahead, taking advice from the reviews which can be seen >HERE<.
So, running the event. Note I'll say this assuming I'd be running it under AirAttack's name rather than GenR's...
I propose using LFS Forum to handle everything as no doubt will it draw more attention to us but it's also the mainstream form of communication within LFS, not to mention we have a section there that is never used. That section could do with a cleanup, I've volunteered before to do that so it looks more professional but I got no reply. So what could happen here?
Also, is it possible we could spare an extra server to host the event? 32 slots, S2, passworded, Airio and me to (preferably) have admin control to change the weekly Qualifying and Race passwords.
I think it will be interesting to see the responses to this...
Theres is a new License Championship comming up soon, so all Demo/S1 players will have the oportunity to have their licenses upgraded.
Me and Jacques decided to donate some money to AA every month to support this championship, but if anyone else wants to helps ups we will be glad.
I will be donating 20â?? every month, starting the end of March, so that the championship starts June the very latest.
AirAttack will be giving out 2 Licenses upgrades per month or every 2 months, still not decided.
At the end of each championship the prizes will be given to the first 2 non S2 players on the !champ list.
So today I turned on my PC to find my secondary monitor (Dell) had committed suicide with a white screen. Yes, I've run all the checks and it is truely (f-bomb here)'d. I am in the process of dealing with Dell but I doubt they will be able to do anything as this monitor was made (according to it's Czech label) February 2008.
So I was wondering, does anyone know of a place where I can get a decent 23-inch flatscreen monitor for less than Â?80? Or, has anybody got a monitor which I could buy for less than Â?80?
