New caterhams are on the way, if you wanted to keep that rF install alive for a little longer. smile.gif

Okay, okay, I'll keep it going long enough to try this out.


Amusingly, someone wants me to track test their Caterham cloney type kit car thing with a Blackbird engine in it in a few weeks. He's having trouble setting it up in a way that he feels confident to drive.

Of course, the more I hear about it the less keen I become. It seems that when he had the geometry sorted out that they could not toe the front to the desired level as the left side could not go beyond 0, because... Erm, the chassis is bent!

Hmmm.

So, the idea that he finds the handling a little odd and unpredictable is starting to all make sense!

This is the most amazingly great news ever as we still race these every few weeks.

Hmmm... I see ISI have released two images of an off-road track for rF2. Could my dreams be about to come true? ohmy.gif

Look Croft, LFS does Rallycross already, get over there and fanboy it up with them.

Dive in, within a few weeks you won't be able to communicate with any non-LFS'ers!
