Re: Every Wednesday @8.30-late, Live For Speed online racing!

Gah, don't know what went wrong with my computer last night, had 2 BSOD in LFS :( - racing was good up to that point.

Was the graphics card drivers according to Windows reporting thing, must upgrade sometime soon - which reminds me, there is a new S2 video on www.liveforspeed.net

Re: Mallory park

I can't stand that. If such numpties don't pull over I just hang back to make room in front of me so you can have some fun....until you catch up again anyway - I would normally as well, but then (in a mk1 anyway), you end up having to let more people past you, and you go backwards in the queue. We ...

Re: Mallory park

You always seem to have the most fun for the least amount of money spent on your car! (:


Dunno about that, I did go a bit crazy and change the plugs and airfilter before Mallory, and it's had an oil change now...

I might even change the pads one of these days..

Re: Mallory park

Before this turns into a full on WRX/Evo bashing thread, there was plenty of poor driving from Noble drivers, as well as a stripped out mk1 golf racing a race prepped bora, which tried to run me off the road at the hairpin - I only singled them out because there were more of them behaving badly.

Mallory park

Took the rusty beast to Mallory for a damm good thrashing at the weekend (thanks to Lauren 'n BaT). Bit crummy in the morning, thanks to long queues of traffic, and morons not letting people past - like Nobles cruising around the corners and putting their foot down on the straights. In the afternoon...

Re: Every Wednesday @8.30-late, Live For Speed online racing!

Much as I would like to see us give the fuel mod a go, I have to agree that waiting for the S2 demo is the best option. I'm pretty sure that most of us have the full version of S1, but it does exclude new people from joining :(

Re: Every Wednesday @8.30-late, Live For Speed online racing!

I'd certainly like to try it to try and mix it up a bit - probably something like 7 laps with 1 stop would be interesting.

Re: Mk 1 Clutch

Good luck trying to find a decent garage in Southampton!

Just as an aside, have you tried bleeding the clutch system? It might improve your clutch. As for a rally mr2, have a look at this monster - although it probably bears little relation to a road-going mk1..

Re: Every Wednesday @8.30-late, Live For Speed online racing!

http://membres.lycos.fr/bskfrstef/InSimConso/InSimConso.zip It gives the racers fuel at the start of the race, which gradually dimishes as the race goes on. There are areas marked out with tyres in the pitlane, when you stop in them, you refuel automatically. It adds a bit more strategy to the racin...

Re: MK1a - car out of bodyshop/restorationage pics

just got to do a service now, change engine, gear oil and plugs. Changing the whole engine is a bit much for a service isn't it? ;) Looks really good, damm, I want mine to look like that now...
