| Some people were asking me who the FZR - WR holder at AS3 was (norbi) , all i could tell them was that when he came to our server he was very very fast . A few nights ago i came upon his website , it seems he was spotted racing on LFS and was given a chance at real life racing ... a proper X-factor moment , it just goes to show that you never really know who your racing with when your online .

| Wow! This is awesome! I too have wondered about this elusive person. I saw his WR replay. It is the smoothest lap ever! The WR hotlap was a cool lap. That is why he was so fast. The story is so inspiring. He is a genius.

| yes, Norbert Kiss is a genius.
and I'm happy cos, he is hungarian 
and not he is the only , who start his real racing career with simulator.
Gabor Weber, who start simulator with GP Legends in 98-99, and in real life he is a Renault Clio and Opel Astra cup champion. He is a f1 comentator too in hungarian RTL.
And there is a another Norbi :Norbert Michelisz. He start his career with simulator too and won a lot of cup. ANd start racing in real life, won Renault Clio Cup, Suzuki Swift cup, and Seat cup, now he race in WTCC , drive BMW. ATM he is 8. on WTCC point table.

they are in this video, (you need hungarian dictionary )

so..racing with simulator (LFS, rFactor, GP Legend..etc) is a good thing 
I think who play good in simulator, they are more better driver in real life, maybe in race track or in real traffic.

| When I started playing LFS and realised I had an addiction to it - I told my wife that the reason I have to play so much is because I could be scouted by the racing world into a real life career and we'd be rich. (Now she let's me play all I want) lol
