Can anyone comment on using a mobile bb dongle? I was looking at getting one but it would have work well as it would replace my ridiculous land line connection. Could i game with one of these things?

Quote from richard dk :Everyone has heard about the upcoming ability to produce and race your own custom paint with the IRacing sim.......

I wish they would give us something like overheating brake discs or sort that throttle position problem out. Pretty paint jobs aren't going to improve the racing. Any rumors on the next build?

Sorry no can do. with time running out fast, my choices are:
  1. Lattitude D610
  2. Thinkpad T42/T43
  3. Presario v4000
  4. HP ZV6000
needs to be good @ browsing & gaming with good connectivity.

Quote from count.bazley :The 24HDF will be the IndyCar at Brands Hatch GP. I noticed it on the schedule yesterday evening.

How thoughtful of them, now we are forced to go & buy two pieces of content if we want to run the 24du ripoff. Any mention of release date?

Zandy is next on the drawing board & they have mentioned the Aussie V8 & Philip island being early 2010 so it looks like Oulton will be Spring 2010ish.

Here's a pic for those on the outside.

Quote from Vendetta :http://www.samiad.co.uk/ra/ra.html

some real life vs iracing side by side shots.

I have to say sometimes i've been less than impressed by the iR graphics but this rly proves how good they are. Just need a few tweaks in the saturation zone & some HDR lighting effects & we're good to go.

Also Greg Hill has confirmed Brands due out in the next 10 days! Looks like i will be buying myself an early Christmas present this year .

Quote from ajp71 :

Overall I am very happy with the way the complaint has been dealt with quickly and satisfactorily, although I'm still not impressed by the driving in the first place and am livid at the guy trying to obstruct me making a complaint.

The pigs are a bunch of arse holes, dont let them intimidate you & more so dont let them waste any of your time. I glad you went & complained good for you.

Good question. The difference between what i would expect them to do & what they would actually do would be profound. i.e. they could look in there every time they pass on patrol (which is fairly often) & tell anyone who is parked to get lost, what will actually happen would be absolute jack sh!t.

My local police are worse than useless, jeez i could tell a few stories about how pathetic they are.
@ mrogers that sounds absolutely vile. (worse than festival toilets even)
Disgusting Humans

On returning from the shed where i work today i found a pile of human excrement! :sour: in the entrance to the drive. This entrance is located next to a busy main road. I was absolutely disgusted that an adult would do such a thing in someones private entrance (no jokes pls).

It has happened before so i am very tempted to report this disgusting being to the local police.

Quote from Dajmin :The removal of a spinal cord is definitely a little too much to get away with a 15

That reminds me of the Mortal Kombat death moves, back in my Amiga days.
They also used the word 'FATALITY' which is now a brand of PC stuff.
