The perfect pair of drivers for LRGP is Heidfeld-Senna. But, you know, Petrov brings the sponsors in... It would be amazing if Heidfeld stays there after Kubica's comeback, just like BMW Sauber from mid 06 to 09. marcl Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I also do not think Bruno should get the drive, I > do not think he pushed 100% last year.by Carlitox - F1
Heidfeld or De la Rosa were LRGP best choices, and I think they've made no mistake. Heidfeld is very skillful, he is a perfect "teacher" for Petrov, and I think Kubica will cheer up if he's his substitute. After all, they were good friends at BMW. @Loque I'm sure Lotus (the Malaysian one) will score some points this year. At least ten points, that's for sure. Theyby Carlitox - F1
Just seen it, thanks chet. I didn't put the source because it's in spanish, but HERE it is. Use google translator, perhaps that can help. And, according to that page, their source was Auto Motor und Sport.by Carlitox - F1
Maybe Ferrari could have claimed that their car is named F150 and the Ford pick-up is named F-150. Besides, there are many variations to this name (E.g.: F-150 Super Duty, etc.) But yes, that Ford is very famous, although I'd buy a Dodge Ram instead if I had the money. BTW, McLaren have introduced LRGP style exhausts. I've read it somewhere. I'm looking for a picture ATM.by Carlitox - F1

@Fincent, It's better than many boring liveries around here. For example, Virgin ruined their livery with the white ugly spots, and Lotus Renault GP did the same with the red Total spots. This is a nice livery, and I think that if some teams hired an artist for their livery (except the obvious unchangeable liveries, like Ferrari or maybe LRGP) we'd have a very nice and colourful Formulaby Carlitox - F1
They look very nice. Is there any way to buy them online? How much do they cost? It's very difficult to buy any scale model here, they are really expensive. A Maisto 1/24 model costs around $U 1200 (which equals U$S 60 more or less). The last one I bought was a Williams FW14 1/18 in Paraguay, which costed only U$S 2!!! Anyway, excellent models.

Quotejames84 The guard-rail, which penetrated in the cockpit, almost severed the hand, but luckily the artery was ok, so with a difficult intervention they are working to save the arm, which will otherwise be amputated. That's horrible... I've no words for this. I'm praying for him ATM... I want to see him racing, at least from the Spanish GP! Go Robert! EDIT: NO RISK OF AMPby Carlitox - F1
Just read something, this is horrible. I hope this isn't like the accidents of Laffite or Nannini, both forced to retire due to accidents. I'm really really worried, although Massa is my favourite driver, Kubica could perfectly be the second one, and I was really looking forward to seeing him with the Lotus Renault.by Carlitox - F1
What an excellent start for the team! 3rd and 4th places in TD Race, 1st in Full Race (congratulations Marcus, great job) and 1st place in Const. Championship! Let's hope more of this during the season.by Carlitox - Grand Prix 3
Whoa, what a surprise! You said the race was going to take place next weekend. Did you decide to make it this weekend or just the Qualy Session? Apart from that, a good position to start the real business!by Carlitox - Grand Prix 3
Yeah, now that you mention it... I had a look to my 1/24 Bburago Ferrari F310, and the concept is similar. But that's not the only one, the F92A featured something similar And both Ferraris weren't very good...by Carlitox - F1

Seconded. And in addition, they are HORRENDOUS. In fact, the whole car is horrible (except the livery, which is brilliant since 2007). But that doesn't matter,by Carlitox - F1

It's not, but since the minimum weight of the car has increased for 2011 season, teams with "heavy" drivers (like Kubica or Webber) don't have a disadvantage against "light" drivers (like Kobaby Carlitox - F1
Time will tell whether the Renault exhausts are better than a Blown diffuser. Personally, I'll put my money to Renault, because with Double diffuser banned, the exhausts can't produce as much downforce as last year. I'm not an engineer or anything, but that's what I think.by Carlitox - F1

You guys are so lucky. I subbed in YouTube and that's all I have. I wish I were in the UK... Last video I watched was a "drag race" with two Ferraris: a 458 and a 430. Not difficult to guess which won.by Carlitox - Off-Topic
Again, thank you Julia! Here's your helmet in action. And, well, some free sponsorship I did a decent conversion even though it took me only 20 minutes I still need to fix some issues.by Carlitox - Grand Prix 4
I second loque. Paint the red spots in black and put a f**** white Total logo. @Ed, There are no major changes but there are two differences. Look this leaked pic: The Shark wing is missing and the nose is different.by Carlitox - F1
I loved the Sauber, it's the most beautiful car since they were sponsored by Petronas (not counting the BMWs). Also, it looks like they've put a lot of effort in the front wing, the little flap on the sides (the one sponsored by Telmex logo) now is divided into two. I think they are following Renault's steps and they will change some flaps in every GP, not just in GPs like Monaco oby Carlitox - F1
Yeah, It's something similar to what happened in 1983 when they banned th ground effect. The cars looked odd, but eventually people got used to them. The same applies for 2009-spec front and rear wings. Also, I think that the narrower front tyres made them look a bit better.by Carlitox - F1

I agree. The 2009 GP3 tyres looked nice, and I thought they would look like them or maybe like the tyres shown in the Lotus livery presentation.by Carlitox - F1
Well, at last I solved the problem and rendered my first car. It's from rFactor, the mod is Red Grand Prix 2011. I made the texture and the helmet. Note that the rims look odd. Does anyone know why? Any other constructive criticism will be welcome.by Carlitox - Grand Prix 4
Hi guys. I made a post in the other thread (Show your personal helmet) asking for rendering tutorials, since I'm new at this. I was able to find one and I got all the necessary things. However, when I try to import the files to make a render of an rFactor car, I get an error message: MaxScript Rollout Handler Exception - Unable to convert: undefined to type: Integer I hope you can helpby Carlitox - Grand Prix 4
I've found a tutorial which made things a bit easier for me. However I'd like to ask two things: 1) Where can I download a good copy of 3DS Max (any version)? That's because I downloaded 3DS 8 and it didn't work, and then I downloaded 3DS 2010, and it was filled with hordes of viruses! 2) To Yulcsa: Are you able to make a helmet for me? I've thought about it and Iby Carlitox - Grand Prix 4
