Well... Kind of weird hm? Suddenly pulling a plug out of everything with just one line of text and nothing anymore. Literally nobody knew I was going to do that, although I gave some warning signs but I was doing that for months already. But, yeah, it was needed. I was completely fed up with how things are going concerning LFS, that I needed to abort everything in quite a drastic way. Not planning any come back, even not with a Westhill release! After the latest announcements I still wasn't that much interested to try it out myself. I was thinking of joining just a random server, play a little bit and then leaving it behind again. Especially because I counted the pit boxes in the video preview;

However when I discovered that one of my main wishes got implemented after all; a race grid increase from 32 to 40 ... I got in quite a happy mood. Is it thát important Dave? Well yes, maybe not for CG but some of you know that I am also involved into league racing and it's just everything together which makes LFS. It's not just a track. So.. Ehm.. This grid increase is not only for Westhill but also for all the other tracks. Even rally grids got extra spots. I tested Westhill yesterday evening and early morning and there are some awesome custom layouts possible.
But... It takes time, running cargame.nl@LFS is not just flipping a switch and not looking after it anymore. It takes care everyday. Even more care now with these new capabilities. I cannot guarantee that I am up for it to be this involved again. Actually I was quite happy that I pulled the LFS plug, so, hhhmm... Eeehhh... Basically I have no clue. But concerning the amount of energy which is being spend in this good update, ànd, that basically my wish of grid slot size is being fulfilled. I cannot just be that arrogant and not at least take a serious look. So, thats the current status for this week (29/03 till 05/04). Upcoming friday I talk with Speedy J (again), it's my personal psych or something. So are you in a depression? No not at all but if LFS only annoys me then yes, it's not nice to carry that with you in the mind.
