Quote from Boris Lozac :

Omfg conspiracy theorists need a little shot in the knee.. Ffs.

There were a few fake body photos news, there were a similiar news "joke" about Jean Reno last year. The body is burnt it will take a few days to identify. There are some points that can question results of this acident.

I would only be happy if this "conspiracy" was true. Sad to see well known people go, nothing wrong for people trying not to believe in sad news.

Numberplates don't match.




Also rim color is diffirent (may be burnt)
Fake news?

Quote from BlueFlame :

I know what ignition is, the point was, unless the engine is running, is it really on? It's only a working ignition when the engine is rotating. When the engine is off it's not 'igniting' anything.

Litteraly, you might be right. But it might be not a such suiting word in modern cars, because "ignition on" just means that all car's electric systems are switched on, including engine spark delivery.

Quote from BlueFlame :

Well if you stall and walk away there's no ignition happening I suppose..... what is this... a trick question?

Ignition on means the electric spark is delivered to the specific cylinder at the moment when it is needed. The ignition distributor decides where it is needed according to crankshaft position.

It also means that all electric system of the car are switched on. You need to have ignition on to jump start for example.

Quote from BlueFlame :

They sounded drunk. Well that's nothing new. After seeing Russian dash cam videos, it really opens you eyes to the sub-human levels of intelligence in the world. Obviously the biggest thing Russia are good at, is being drunk and/or stupid.

You have fault image of how drunk russian sounds like :rolleyes:

besides, they that talks most of the time is not the driver.

Skip to 0.35.

The most hilarious thing in this video is the cold blooded reaction and the dialog...
[rough translation]:
- We arrived.
-We are sailing.
- Yep, we are sailing.
- Where are we sailing?
- Forward.
- Just don't rotate the steering wheel.

Wrong cheatcode...

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

do you race irl?

How about you stop being picky and read the point of my post: Consider buying a less expensive first wheel if you don't want to spend a lot of money

Quote from CodeLyoko1 :

you play lfs in your car?

I don't play LFS because it became boring to me after I got myself a car.

Quote from shimon-ifraimov :

porsche wheel , i dont know feels weird to hold porsche wheel and drive other cars :s

also i forget to ask , is there option to quick realese and change to f1 type of steering wheel ? i saw a guy do that in youtube video . looks cool and i want the option to change to a squar wheel when iam driving formula cars.

i found this amazing looking wheel but again , the badge is killing it for me as i am not a bmw fan :\

You won't notice badge on your wheel when you drive. If you will, then your driving would be far from perfect.

Do you have a car? I'm asking because I used to have G25 wheel and raced quite a lot until I got a car. Racing games became uninteresting to me after that, besides FFB and shifter were way far from real life (especially the shifter) so I sold the wheel quite soon.

So if you do have a car you might be dissapointed, and spending quite a sum of money on a top wheel might not satisfy you. I'd buy some midrange model and see what will happen later.

I used to start with a gamepad, then I advanced to Logitech Drive EX, then I used another broken wheel and made a 3 pedal system out if it. Only some time later I advanced to G25, but after a year of use I got a car and then it became unneeded.

My main point is that it takes a certain type of dullard to choose to run Android.

it takes a certain type of dullard to jump on a "IOSvsANDROID flamewar" wagon.

Both have pros and cons. period.

Quote from bmwe30m3 :

Not without modding and losing warranty.

Haven't heard about any new wheel comng out from logitech.

And soon Bose will come saying that logitech is crap and you need to get fanatec.

Well, Logitech indeed is lacking quality a bit lately, atleast in joystick segment Logitech is far from being the best.

If it will be you first wheel, you might aswell start from something simpler, like DF GT wheel.

Guess its not that hard to loose it when you have like 2 square cm of tire touching the ground with that camber

Quote from bmwe30m3 :

That moment when the phone model isn't even 3 years old.

whatever, I lost count. I bought it a few months after release. Must be 2 years then. Anyway that's quite a term for a phone by my standards.

I use my old Samsung Galaxy Gio for 3 years now, still runs good. When I got bored of it and wanted something new I installed 4.2.2 Android on it. Works just fine with it. I think I'll have it until it dies completely, because I don't any point in buying "new" phone which will be technically the same, just a bit faster.

no longer available...

Looks like a Soviet recruitment office at christmas time.

Nah, there would be iron toys in girl's hands if it would be USSR...

Quote from KiRmelius :

I live in a huge wooden shed and it's pretty darn awesome.

light wooden constructions and house made of timber is absolutely different things strength wise.

Quote from Bose321 :

Europeans too? I can't remember not seeing a stone or concrete house over here.

Its getting popular in EU too, just using LSTC (lightweight steel constructions) instead of wood. Ecohouses and all other bsht. Another marketing trick to make fools give their money...

I've always wondered how you Europeans\Americans live in light wooden framework houses. I'm an building engineer and I do realize it is a tad cheaper to build, but does it really worth it when it doesn't have any strength? Isn't it scary to know that a drunk\asleep hatchback driver can penetrate your house straight through?

If that guy skidded into my house he'd probably won't get moving after the impact.

Quote from KiRmelius :

Sorry, I'm not feeling too well today. Might be the angle of the photo, but to me it appeared pretty differently proportioned than the A1's I see in the street, thus making me to make this false assumption. Pardon my stupidity. I'm drinking way too much lately.

You've probably thought about this car (I did)
http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q ... 6kxmfvIAPyX7M0ddehqEWN-QV

Veyron W16 engine?
EDIT: nah, its different. My guess it some military vehicle engine.

Quote from Bose321 :

Are you sure we are talking about the same game?

Also: I laughed out loud reading the noob part. You don't seriously think the console fanbase will be any more skilled? I can already tell you it will be the exact opposite.

The noob part of my reply was in the sentence where I explained why I don't play WoT anymore.

Fanbase will be as weak as on PC, but the sort of game WoT is now certainly fits consoles more than PC, IMO. Atleast it has a chance of getting non-ancient game engine.
