for example:

you're donating blood and you get a metallic taste in your mouth, ask the nurse and she'll give you (iirc) some vitamin C.
After that small dosage you drink the symptoms disappear.

Sorry, but could you clarify your point?

Quote from geeman1 :

It's normal to have muscle twitches once in a while. Infact a normal person has some twitching everyday, it's just it often goes unnoticed if you are doing something else or it's in a muscle you don't really notice. Magnesium defiancy is what usually causes it. Anyway no need to worry if it doesn't happen all the time or for long periods of time.

Now that you mentioned the "time" aspect of it, I noticed that it NEVER happens in the morning, only in the afternoon really....

Quote from Shotglass :

try more sleep and magnesium

Roger that, i'd also like to hear from others if they experience this and what they have done to diminish it.

Quote from U4IK ST8 :

That could be it alright, the muscle isn't used to being so relaxed, but what sport involves your eyebrows? Hahaha...

Lol , the only time my eyebrow twitched was the time it happened in school. Every other time its either been in my hand, arm or knee.

I see...my left foot is too clumsy to left foot brake

So, if I understand you correctly, you were using your left foot to brake and right foot to accelerate?

Your second story conflicts with your first. If you preach letting others finish the race regardless of what happened behind them, then you should have finished because you made it through alive

Hehe thanks. I was pretty sure that i KNEW it was not video game related. What i speculate is that since my work requires a lot of physical exertion, and the sports that i play on weekends require excessive running, it is an effect of the normally over-active muscles, not being active. I figured that because of the relaxed atmosphere, the muscles start twitching because they are used to working hard?

I have read the warnings on the back of all videos games ever made in the world and I have never had this problem in my life until now. I've been playing video games since 7 or 8 years old and have NEVER had this problem. I posted to ask if others experienced this or if it was just me or if they were familiar with this.

Also, I forgot to add that I have gotten these while sitting in school, so it can't be video game/T.V. caused.

For a few months now, i've had this muscle twitch going on 5-7 days out of the week. It only happens when i'm not doing anything, a.k.a watching t.v., sitting at the comp. It has happened in places such as my eyebrow, thumb, bicep, and knee. I heard that it can be caused by anxiety but there is nothing for me to be anxious about...I don't get the twitches when I am active, whether it be at work playing a sport, driving in real life. The twitches are significant enough to be seen on the skin and felt if i put my hand over it. Does anyone else have this sort of thing? Does anyone know how to get rid of it? It doesn't hurt at all, it's just freaking annoying.


now that I think about it, they sound more like spasms, but w/e..

Guy on left in cheery girl voice: "Oh this is so exciting!"

I would also like to join the beginners league. [email protected] is my email.

This whole thread is spam.

Because that doesn't solve the problem of knowing the name of the track. I agree with the poster, there should be a command that displays the track name.

No, NOT murder, you dumbshit. It would be justifiable homicide. Get your facts straight, or GTFO. **** you Jakg, **** you.

Sorry to say Jakg, but he is right.

Quote from BullHorn :

'+1' is so 90's.

This suggestion has nothing to improve the game, actually, it's a bad idea, because what if you want to look straight to analyze the driver's line? If you wanted to look to the side, you can always press the look left/right buttons.

I don't get it why everyone +1 every suggestion, or do they just mean +1 for their post count?

I don't say +1 because its freaking useless and doesn't mean anything. They say it to represent a "yes" vote.

Quote from wheel4hummer :

If someone broke into my house, and I had a gun, then I would point it at them and tell them to put there hands on their head and lay on the ground, until police arrive. But, if they reach for their pocket I would shoot them in the chest, and then duck for cover.

You're a badass.

Quote from wheel4hummer :

Why would that be? My attitude on this forum is alot different then it is in real life. I just get very pissed off at people sometimes. Not enough that I wan't to kill anyone, I just get angry enough that I wanna yell and curse at them.

Stick with a baseball bat beside your bed

This is a very good thought, and a very good suggestion, as I don't think there is a way to replicate driver eye movements in replays.

Good idea.

Oh christ. Don't even get me started on the firearm discussion. I will say this, a firearm is the LAST thing you should even think about owning.

Relax. This is the internet.

Quote from speed1 :

oh sh*t just foun the forum thred that says not to make any other threds about getting banned. any ways thx

lmao. Next time just post in the "I got Banned..." thread.

Honestly, who cares? Get over it.

First of all, you did say that but I am just too lazy to bother myself with you and quoting it. Second of all, The fact that you are yelling like that supports my belief and secures it. And third of all, you have much more control when you are accelerating normally than when you FLOOR IT. Also, saying that "there are no driveways or kids around" it the absolute dumbest thing you can say. Basically you are implying that nothing out of the ordinary will come your way. I hope you get your Camaro and wreck it the next day.

Here: I found your quote just to make you feel even more stupid

"Well, I am not afraid of crashing BECAUSE I DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT COULD CAUSE ME TO CRASH!"

Quote from Blackout :

Well, I can't see it really practical to go 200 km/h all the time.

But seriously, experts of economic driving and driving instructors say that you should try to achieve the desired speed rather swiftly because in a longer slower acceleration you will burn more fuel, of course it doesn't mean you have to go near flooring or redline, not at all. Once you reach the wanted speed you should use the highest possible gear and low revs to minimize fuel consumption, and when stopping you should only put your clutch down when just coming to a halt. But the key point to remember is to avoid stopping at all, because it's the acceleration which burns the most fuel. So if you see you might need to stop for lights, slow down and keep moving long as you can. This is what they basically say, but some of it might be a bit different with silly American cars, with their silly automatic gear boxes...oh and not even to mention huge lousy engines, huge weight and well, you got cheap fuel anyway...

But you drive a Japanese if I remember correctly?

Funny you should say that. My family owns a nursery where we grow shrubs, plants and trees that we use for landscape designs etc. and the drive out to the nursery is about 1 hour long along a highway with lights. Whenever we go out there or come back, we play a game and see how far we can make it without stopping the vehicle . It's quite fun and requires some strategy.
