Live For Speed

Live For Speed is a realistic racing simulator that focuses on car behavior simulation. The physics here are detailed: grip, weight distribution and tire wear all affect the result, and all of this must be taken into account. Races take place on ring tracks, as well as on public roads in the form of separate configurations. There are different modes: training, racing, drift. The car settings are changed in detail, and the interface provides telemetry. In addition to solo practice, there are network races where experienced players gather. The project is developed by the community and remains popular among those who value accuracy. Tire surfaces and pressure affect grip, so the same tire run may have to be driven differently depending on the conditions. Ghost mode helps you compare your own laps and see exactly where you're wasting time. The community releases configurations and additions, which significantly extends the life of the project. Suspension settings are saved separately for each track, which is convenient when returning to familiar configurations. The interface provides telemetry, so you can sort out your own mistakes by numbers, and not just by feelings. Drift platforms make it possible to practice your drift without the risk of flying into the bump stop on the ring. Training on an empty track helps you understand how the car reacts to releasing the gas. For anyone who wants a serious simulator without unnecessary embellishment, the Live For Speed is a suitable choice.
