If only I had a steering wheel for PC.

Are we allowed to do 1hour solo?

You don’t need one, you can play with an Xbox/PS controller. In fact, I’m one of the faster drivers, and I use a keyboard only.

Yes, I’ll make that clear in the original post. But you will have to make a pitstop, whether you want to or not, to balance the advantage.

Alright, I am fine with that.

6

i dunno if my computer is even up for it. although i do have a joystick… but i doubt that would help

7

Oh oh oh! I’m definitely in, I think my highest finish in one of these to date was 2nd last! Time to change that!

The time is 19:30 GMT correct?

I haven’t played this in years, time to dust off my G27 I guess.

Yes, indeed. Mind you, last time we did this, there were only 2 cars.

LFS is very easy on your computer, especially at low settings. I was able to play it on my ancient Thinkpad, so you should be fine as long as you have an i3 or the AMD equivilant. The joystick is great if you know how to use it.

You still in to play?

To add to this, my 7~8 y/o Toshiba laptop, with a Celeron M clocked at 1.4 ghz, 1 gb ram and ATI 300M graphics was able to run LFS no issue when I had XP installed.

You just need to lower the graphics far enough.

19:30 GMT… and im at GMT+7 time zone…

2:30 AM…

living on the other side of the world… huft. im not sure if i can. how long is a single session?

13

Probably an quick warm up race or two, then a 1 hour race. So 1.5-2 hours.

14

Sorry guys, i think i’ll be either busy or tired as hell. So… :confused:

15

Count me in!

Dont forget to join the “official” TS3!

I will try to make it but I have semester finals next week so I might be studying, but it’s likely we have finished for the day at that time.
And sadly my wheel is at my parents so if I join I will be racing with the keyboard. :frowning:

BTW 21:30 CET is 20:30 GMT

17

Sorry Kevin, I got the 24h time wrong. It’s 20:30.

18

I may be in attendance.

19

I’ll do my best to join you guys, there even is a slight probability that I’ll arrive with a teammate.

This went better than my AMWEC build :smiley:
