hope this isnt a dumb question......

but if you have a dfgt wheel, could you use the fanatec pedals instead of the ones that came with the logitech wheel?

it sucked...big time!

saying that, i thought the last series wasnt that good either.

not enough rimmer and that bloody annoying woman!

for me it peaked when they had starbug and was searching for RD itself.

some of those episodes rocked......listers arranged marrige,rimmer world, and the sirens.

i watched the 1st new episode and about 3/4's of part two, and then gave up.

imo , that link to the clip on youtube was the best episode.

"whats dead and dead and dead all over? YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

pure class.

ok guys, your honest opinion.

ive got the pedals from a red momo, and some parts of the wheel.

wheel itself
circuit board, usb connection, power supply
FF motor and some of the gears.

now, is it worth trying to make a home made wheel out the parts, using bearings and a threaded steel rod, plus extra gears to make the rotation bigger, like 540 degrees using a 3:1 ratio fro example?

then use the motor to give it FF?

or just buy a new wheel (due to funds, may be a while)

so glad to see that our hard earned taxes are not being wasted.

what a complete and utter load of b*ll*cks!

i defy any driver over a week not to break one or more of these pathetic "laws"

retuning the radio? turn on your rear wash/wipe......how many of us dont glance back at the same time?

it seems the big brother state wants our roads to be 110% safe.......well heres news for you jack. as long as soft, sqidgy carbon based life forms are driving these big metal boxes round , there will always be accidents.

what will they suggest next? a permenate passenger for every vehicle to look left and right for you as you approach a junction? just so your eyes are not taken off the road ahead?

perhaps they should be spending money on making the streets safe for decent folk, locking up drug dealers, having areas safe for young children to play, catching burglers.

but no, lets waste money catching some poor motorist and fine him 60 quid because he was caught on camera picking his nose or scratching his ass while he swiched off his radio because terry bloody wogan came on the airwaves!

couple of photos.

the fiesta and mondeo have long gone, but ive kept my mk4 xr3i cabby for just sunny days. It now sports some 15" RS turbo wheels, much,much better.

dont scoff, but ive got a volvo 850 glt estate........needed tons and tons of space, the one thing the cabby doesnt have.

Quote from BlueFlame : With 3 wheels in Schumachers situation, he's only a danger to himself, with 3 wheels in Vettel's situation, he's a danger to everyone.

so lets get this right.

he is driving slowly, in a damaged car in a situation where other cars have crashed due to poor visibilty, and thats alright?

and i quote:

"Both Vettel's and Kubica's cars sustained substantial front-end damage in the collision. But while the BMW Sauber driver spun off and hit a wall soon after, Vettel continued to drive his stricken RB5 with its left front wheel hanging off as the safety car emerged following the incident.

As a result the stewards have additionally fined him - and Red Bull Racing - US$50,000 for continuing to drive a damaged car."

anyone remember the 3 wheeled car from spa '88?

ahem, cough cough.

EJ does like the sound of his own voice doesnt he?

Quote from tinvek :anyone else read in autosport how kubica's height may mean he has to run without Kers whilst heidfeld runs with it due to centre of gravity issues ?

brundle kept saying it was more of an issue on the ballast position for him, so it maybe so
mr grady

amazing

jens drove a stormer, not enough brundle to listen to imo, LFS style wreck at the end, and a 1-2 for the ex BAR team (see an earlier post of mine for that one)

bladder stayed the distance, advert breaks? gone gone gone.......hooray!

Its Brawn GP for me

Reason?

Im british, so i like british teams and drivers....and in relation to me (im in wiltshire) JB is a local.

I supported BAR when they were running, but i didnt like it when they went and honda took over. So IMO, its just like BAR have skipped a few years and have come back.

The reason for supporting BAR was simple. At a testing day at silverstone a few years ago i managed to blag my way into the paddock.
All, and i mean all the folks at BAR were the friendliest, most helpful bunch there, so from that day i was a supporter..through good times and bad.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :Well why on earth didn't you ask that then?!

I used Pixmania and it was fine.

Quote from 5haz :Richards is what they need, but perhaps Honda are too behind development wise now for even him to turn things around.

If they hadnt got rid of him in the first place, Honda might have been more successful and wouldnt have ended up in such a bad way when the Honda company hit a crisis.

Quote from TexasLTU :Well Coulthard was active 15 years, and he was allways saying he will win next time

from wikipedia

David Marshall Coulthard, often called DC, (born 27 March 1971 in Twynholm, Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland) is a British former Formula One racing driver. By virtue of a long career he has amassed a notable points haul, and lies fifth on the all-time scorers list, being the top British scorer. He has won thirteen grands prix, including two at Monaco.

but i do agree with the snot speed bashers. i can only speak from an armchair fans point of view, but he did seem a talentless obnoxious t*t.

It all sounds good to me.

i agree with the first poster.

i was voted to be kicked by this guy, and someone joined in just because "the kicker was his friend".

anyone noticed the demise in quality of racing this week? and the increase of idiot kicking/banning? (halfterm)

no offence meant to all of our younger but sensible racers, but some are just absolute idiots.
