After surprising myself in qualifying i was pretty disappointed to get 5th. I have no idea how after my pitstop i was so far back and having some stupid shifter issue where it would just go from 2nd to neutral on its own just before shifting to 3rd in the chicane which then ruined any chance of battling people down the straight and im pretty sure it along with me probably downshifting a bit early and over revving it a few times didnt help my engine power.

Has anyone ever had that issue before with the shifter? i read some stuff online and some people said they had theirs jumping from 2nd to 4th when they had autoclutch on which could be what mines trying to do except without auto clutch it can only get to neutral.

Also Krayy i would recommend a Billion 7800N modem/router its a bit expensive but i know they work very well. The cable length between my house and the exchange is about 3km long and even when i was having dropout issues which required a new pair of wires to be pushed up the street the billion stayed connected rock solid and was faster then my dlink too

Good night of racing for me!!!, had a great start , jumped afew spots after the chicane, managed to avoid krays spin on the back straight, looks good though! only managed to keep up with wildboy and chris at the start because of their dueling, i think steala was catching them too. Only did 3 or 4 laps in the 34's so but did pretty good35's consistantly and got home 2nd was very happy when i started in last,

i think i had a tiny bit of engine damge, you can hear it in engine note.....tiptop was catching me fast near the end but did some good laps towards the end when tank was getting empty to keep the gap about 5 sec.

bad luck wildboy about shifter, that is weird, maybe put it back to seqential and back to H might just make sure all the contacts are working....also could try testing in Game controllers in Control panel....can see if its selecting 2nd button all the time.

Havnt done poibnts yet but got the calc out to see what happens to top 4...basicly all the same but gaps close up. bring on LX4!!! great car if you can master the gas pedal!!!!

ok guys dont stress!! i worked wat my shifters doing i opened up the control options panel and it shows you which gear button is currently on and wats happening sometimes when i grab the shifter in 2nd gear i might accidently push it sideways only 1 or 2mm but thats enough for it to for some reason stop registering the button been pushed. So this explains why it does it occasionaly and only in the high rpm range cause ive just grabbed it to go for 3rd. Looks like im gunn have to open it up and have a look around

But back to the world series: i have never raced an lx4 properly only ever used it for "crusing" around and doing burnouts and stuff cause teh lx series is good at that lol so lookng forward to the challange

Thanks, Nice race, Poor Krayy on lap 1 (3 wide down the staight looked good) unto Dyno went up his butt (Note Dyno you should have slowed and let krayy take your place) But Karma got Dyno in lap 3 (Karma or KK LOL). Steala, you would be dangerous if you used a wheel, Great times and race. Otherwise Pissed off i forgot about it.
