I still don't understand how you can do that. I can't even drive in a straight line.

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

It really helps if you have a joystick and the flap's linked to the #4 and #6 buttons. If you have to use the mouse the "[" and "]" keys should operate the gears on Marc's bikes. Marc has friends online at EGAE and EGAA that have been using mouse control, and they've been doing pretty good, they even manage to pass me once in awhile before they go careening off the circuit. :lol:

Practice, if you guys want to get good at this, load up the LC sidecar and practice, practice practice. Then try out the bikes and, well, you know the routine.

I am afraid of sliding of bikes :P
But I;ll try [ ] ... cause I was trying backspace (home) (end) for switching... no success.

His bikes don't slide out. Heck, they don't even need to be leaned much, they stick to the road quite well.

Marc's bikes don't use Home or End, it's been this way for a while now. Before starting the engine hit the "]" key a few times to make sure it's in "0" or neutral. You can hear the gears shift by a 'clunk' sound. You should have the engine start right up if you use the autostart from menu. And there's no need to use the clutch, or "Backspace" anymore, you can take off in first gear without killing the engine.

You will however, pop a wheelie if you give it too much gas in first. :o

Are there any cars for FG that have a full "FDM", like understeering/oversteering, tire load, CG shifting, etc?

That'd be cool...
Maybe instead of making "many" cars, it'd be better to make a few but realistic cars.
