Completed after Champion of Champions - 30/12/16

Congratulations to Kane for the most wins in the year with 66!

The 2016 LFS Bangers season concluded last night with the Champion of Champions meeting at Birmingham Wheels. Although fifteen drivers had qualified and all were asked to confirm their attendance or absence, a number of them completely ignored this. The drivers in question will know who they are and...

Please accept my apologies for not getting these up sooner; with the ban situation on Friday, I didn't feel in the right state of mind to post up the results, and I had more important things to do over the weekend! :lol: Anyway, seventeen drivers attended this year's Christmas Fun Meeting and as wit...

As of tonight's meeting, I have been forced to issue a permanent ban to a driver who competed in the meeting. That driver is #779 Luke (luke133). Over the past season, Luke's attitude has been very poor towards nearly everyone but more importantly towards the league. While there is nothing wrong wit...

The 2016 season comes to a conclusion next Friday at Birmingham Wheels with the Champion of Champions meeting, being held for the first time since 2008. Throughout the season, drivers have had the opportunity to qualify for the meeting's main race via fifteen different methods and it is now time to ...

The 2016 LFS Bangers Grades season came to a conclusion tonight with the European Championship from Warneton. 15 drivers competed to claim the red and yellow chequered roof that was being displayed by 220 Nova for potentially the final time as he is to leave the league following this season. There w...

Updated after 1400s Trophy - 9/12/16

Sixteen drivers turned out for the debut of Aberdeenshire's Crimond track, created by 76 Timmy, in the league with the 1400s Trophy. The small tight circuit was perfect for the little cars, as they provided some great racing and crashing action; the UF1's low centre of gravity meant there were many ...

The final points title of 2016 is decided this coming Friday with the European Championship. Belgium's Warneton will host the meeting once again, and current champion 220 Nova has said this is to be his final LFS Bangers meeting: can he go out on a high and retain his red and yellow roof? Or can the...

First of all, let me apologise for the poor preparation for tonight's meeting. I was reluctant to reveal that this was to be an all DD meeting because I was fearful that booking numbers would be very low had I mentioned it in the booking in thread. I should have been more honest with all of you and ...

The last outing for the UF1s this year sees the debut of the most northernly track in the UK with Crimond hosting the non-points 1400s Trophy meeting. All races will take place on the Blackwood Crimond layout using the 1400s class (UF1). Bookings will not be limited for this meeting. Bookings are NO...

Congratulations to Cap on becoming Graded Points Champion

Michal is ahead of Cap due to a higher number of race wins (Michal's 3 to Cap's 1.33).

Splat is ahead of Foster due to a higher number of race wins (Splat's 1 to Foster's 0).

16 drivers attended the first Figure 8 Challenge hosted at Buxton Figure 8. I have to apologise for the repeated starts to a number of heats tonight; this was due to a significant number of first bend hits causing big lag impacts alongside the grid being too close together for the first five heats. ...

It's the final team meeting of any kind this year with the revival of the Krash Kings meeting, held only once back in 2008. Due to a number of strong controversies following that meeting, it was dropped from further calendars. I have decided to revive it as it is a slightly different team meeting. T...

Round 11 (European Qualifier 3) Please let me apologise for my intermittent appearances in tonight's meeting; I'm away again and the laptop I'm using had a bit of an overheating problem with the humidity and consequently kept shutting off without warning. As is usual, thank you to Cap for running p...

With the last season-long points meeting completed, it's time for the close to the season and that means non-points meetings! Buxton Figure 8 will be the host for a 2 Litres Figure 8 Challenge to compensate for the quite disappointing Micro Figure 8 season that has since been retired. All races will...

This might actually be a good thing for some of us to enter to try and promote the league a bit more.

I'll have a think about it and maybe post something up closer to the time.

Apologies for the hectic start to tonight's meeting and my repeated disconnections throughout; I'm away on holiday again and didn't get set up properly until about 30 minutes before the meeting, and then I had two laptop overheats. :roll: I should be fine for next week. In a change to the originally...

The eleventh and final grade meeting of the season is the third and last European Championship qualifier, coming from the ditch dungeon of Boerhaar next Friday. This is the last chance to qualify for the European Championship grid before the European Championship in December so make sure you attend ...

Updated with the qualifier from Firecracker VI: 606 Jon

As all spaces have now been revealed, the last remaining qualifier of the European Championship has been included in the grid.

The most attended meeting for quite a while saw an amazing 24 drivers compete in the sixth Live For Speed Firecracker, held at its real life home of Arena Essex. We had another league debutant tonight with the second Czech driver in LFS Bangers in the form of #356 Matyseek, while 341 Bungal, 271 Kiz...

After a successful trial last season, a head-to-head meeting has been scheduled for next Friday. Owing to the large increase in continental drivers over the season, it was decided that it would be a battle of Europe as Great Britain is set to take on the continent . Drivers racing for GB must race i...

Congratulations to Rik on retaining his title.

I'm not really sure what happened last nnight. However, I can comfortably say it went wrong for the second title meeting in succession. At the start, the track was changed from Gizmo's Stadium to Arena Essex. This was due to concerns from some drivers about the track's size combined with the Unlimit...

November kicks off with the big bang of Firecracker VI at Arena Essex. The Firecracker meeting is the only one in the regular LFS Bangers calendar that allows drivers to use the ridiculously powerful FZ5 alongside the usual Unlim class for either rodding or, more likely, wrecking! :twisted: In suppo...

Round 10 (European Qualifier 2) The driver increases had to come to an end and it did on Friday at Emmen, but not by much: 18 drivers attended the tenth graded meeting and second European qualifier. The Kyoto variation of the track had a good estimate of the Dutch venue's shale surface (although th...
