LFS fictional brands
Hi!

I wasn't sure if it is done already but I was wondering what all those "fictional" brands in LFS are..

Here's a list for as far as I could find them:

T-Fone - (mobile)Phone provider?
DT-uK - Racing helmets manufacturer?
Injext racing fuel - Fuel.. doh.
DT/TD (?) - I don't have a clue.
Gripmaxx - Tire manufacturer?
Real brand ATL Racing Fuel Cells - Fuel cells.. doh.
Volante - Steering wheels? like MOMO?
Scavier Solutions - ScaViEr > Scawen Victor Eric. Race car manufacturer? Like Lola e.o? Or IT-company?
Nexx - I don't have a clue.
KATT - Exhausts.
Hi BITE - Tire manufacturer? Transmissions?
KNS Kyoto Suspension System - Suspension manufacturer.. doh.
Evostar - Tire manufacturer.
Shinozooka - (drift)Tire manufacturer?
TICO - Turbo manufacturer.
TAKAI - I don't have a clue
rufTWEEKS - Tuning parts? Tuning magazine?
FreNo - I don't have a clue.
Redexx Motor Oil - Motor oil.. doh.
Cromo tires - Tire manufacturer.. doh.
Torro - Tire manufacturer.. doh.
Did I forget any?

Anyone any idea's?
(Ok, I know it's useless/pointless but I'm just wondering:razz
alot of these threads exist, use the search funtion in the general discussion.

tico-turbos
hibite-transmission(i think)
Katt-exhaust(LX6, look at the exhaust)
Scavier Solutions - Race car manufacturer? Like Lola e.o? Or IT-company?

ScaViEr

Scawen Victor Eric

In short, its the Dev's own company so to speak.

EDIT: And they make cars

All I found was about car manufacturers, not the in-game brands.

I thought T-Fone was real, and Redexx?
ATL is real manufacturer, FYI. I know, because when I wander around the paddock at my favorite track, alot of people use them!

Hmm.. okey.. well anyway.. now we have a decent new thread (hope you guys don't mind)
Takai sounds like helmets to me, sort of like Arai or something...
what about Bovinium, or whatever the spelling is for it, and actually T-Fone is a real company under the name of T-Mobile in the UK, but the T-Fone on LFS uses a different logo/font, so its not the same company.
Bovinium is quite humorous in my opinion. It is trying to sound like bottled spring water or something, but all it conjures up in my mind is some sort of 'cow water'!

This comes from the 'Bovin' part, leading me to think of Bovine creatures.....

Now just what is 'cow water'.....not quite as catchy as Gatorade that's for sure!

Also, I always though Hi-BITE was a brake manufacturer like Brembo or something.
FreNo - brakes? freno is brake in spanish iirc

On the default interior files for the Formula XR, if you look closely to the left you can find the logo.

I'm sure they are a manufacturer of race cars because of this.
Quote from Gil07 :FreNo - brakes? freno is brake in spanish iirc

That's what I thought too. It's frein in french.
And what about Cinzano?

Edit: nvm, found it, it's a brand of Italian vermouth, a real brand.

I thought it was clutch manufacturer?
Howabout Jack D's Steak house? There is a videostore also in South City...

I've always thought the same of Bovinium, I laugh every time I see it.
Freno - is brake discs (you can tell because the O looks like a brake disc)
Cromo - also makes steering wheels and tires (look on FV8 wheel)
Donbikes - hope you guys haven't forgotten that one
Cocopine [White] Jamaican Rum - its RUM!
Ice White - Lager!
KNS - Kyoto suspension system (says so)
ENJEXX (?) - Turbos (says so)
