Live for Speed is a small development team dedicated to making the best online racing simulation. Our current release is S2 with which we attempt to recreate the thrill and fun of real racing, by simulating all aspects important to racing. Varying racing environments and cars which can be setup by an abundance of options - all on your home pc.
So what will you find in LFS S2? The DEMO allows you access to 3 cars and one racing environment that has both a road and a rallycross course. The cars available are a front wheel drive hatchback, one rear wheel driven road car and the Formula BMW, a single seater. These three cars make for a good all round impression.
The FULL version adds five more racing environments, a big test area and 17 additional cars. The test area contains many configurations: a skid pad, a drag strip and an autocross area, plus an editor to create your own autocross tracks.
There is a lot of community activity. Our forum has become the centre of communication and is a huge resource of information, help and additional downloads for the game. But it doesn't stop at our forum - localised communities have sprung up all over the world.
Leagues are being run on nearly every continent, varying from sprint to endurance races. All your actions online are recorded and made available to you at LFS World where we also have the hotlap charts for the offline side.
Do you want to try LFS S2? You can download the latest version from our downloads page. This download will initially act as an S2 demo, allowing access to 3 cars and 1 track environment only. If you want to access all the other content, a license must be bought. Please see the 'Read Before You Buy' and 'Buy A License' pages for more information on licenses.

some things i have to say
it's not easy. Take off to fast from the line you'll be spining or slam on the brakes while turning you'll get your wheels to lock up
use a steering wheel/gamepad it makes 100% better
use the testing area to get used to the cars
TUNE YOUR CAR

No, you're just too young to know how a real world car handles. :cookieMonster:
