Video is Vettel V Button Suzuka Pole lap and how Vettel beat Button.
What do people think when watching this video?
Do you think, after watching this video, that the Red Bull was so much superior to the Mclaren? What about the Renault V Mercedes engine?

If you watch this video and go with it, you watch how much better setup the Mclaren is to the Red Bull, but Vettel still takes the pole.

Note, Vettel was able to beat the Mclarens, however, Webber couldnt. What does this say?

Im not asking rhetorical questions to say Its all Vettels work here, but more what do you think..

I think the problem is with Lewis, is that hes caught up in a tangle nearly every week, causing the stewards to keep punishing him.

Think of this logic. A cop pulls over two people for speeding only 10kph over the limit, not much, but still slightly over, named Mr. A and B. A has had a bad driving record with speeding, running red lights and the rest often. B has had close to nothing, other than afew tiny offences. The cop goes back to his car and looks up each drivers record. He would turn back to Mr B more than likely to give him a warning to make sure it doesnt happen again (though, he may even book him). However with Mr A, he gives him the fine straight away because of the amount of times hes done the same thing...


Lewis is Mr A.

When you think about it, Lewis' incidents arnt even that bad. My main fav driver is the crazy man, Montoya. I still regard him as one of the best drivers around. With lewis, its just the amount of times hes in an incident stupidly and sorry to say, the media, the fanboys and the haters really make it worse for him on the whole..."internet side" of things. I've been in discussion when on race day (yes im only karting around australia, but relax, its still professionals racing), and there's non of this nonsense crap being discussed. You only really find this crap on forums and blogs etc.

Of course it was his fault. You would have to be blind not to see it.

As much as i find it hilariously stupid when the fanboys v haters argue about Lewis and his driving, I want to see the fanboys defend this one. You'd be either stupid or on your knees willing to give him a BJ.

As long as theres tracks on the game that are around here, ill get this no matter what. I race karts mostly in Sydney, so it will be very interesting to see how much detail is put in. Look out for Newcastle kart track if its in there, As well as Todd Road kart track (that has to be a must, as they are based where the track is). Ive also owned a Arrow 28-30 chassis with a KT100S engine (the exact combination on the preview video). It looked abit weird, but cant wait to test.

Video of some testing last week. Change of tyre brand has left me clueless on setup and driving technique. Anyway, was playing with my new camera and thought of some angles. This view is pretty cool. Its central to my POV, not on the side, not above, but almost dead on eye level.

IMO, Lewis lacka disapwin..

He needs to move to ferrari. The team where you drive for ferrari or pack your bags. That would teach him abit more imo, when he has to perform for ferrari and do what they want, not whatever he wants.

It would be bad at redbull, I personally think they wouldn't be able to handle him.

I havent really done much print work, as most work I do is web design. Web varies, ive had jobs before which are basic and have been paid rather well ($1000aud), then ive done sites which ended up to be extremely time consuming and quoted less. Just comes down to how he makes the deal and who he's dealing with. For a big company who rely on an important and strong image, you can get away with charging more as long as they are satisfied, where a small business or etc may be frightened with an expensive quote when they can go elsewhere for something half as good and cheap snd still be happy with the result.

You'll see massive businesses charged tens of thousands just for a poster, but it pays off for yhem because they rely on a very solid design and something that plays with peoples heads.

Also very true what pb32000 said. Exactly that

For a business card design and layout for a two sided design ive charged $250AUD. Like i said, I've not done much of print, just stsrting to get clients now. I'll post more info when I can, im currently working

I think currently Android is better (Im a droid user myself and HATE apple), but Apple will dominate! Simple

W7 and Symbian, are just stand up comedians.

Quote from jibber :Huge fail.

+1



..Anyway, i know you want a constructive reply, but neither. GTR's are more than amazing (and i love them..take a look at my racername for goodness sake), but GTS-T's are just a waste, unless they are on the drag strip.

The S13 would perhaps be the car tbh actually...

Was just in a MX5 cup race, started 8th, leading by lap 5... only to get taken out by a drunk back marker. The son of this back marker was on my ass in 2nd place apologizing to me that his dad was was drunk. Felt like dad takes out leader for son in 2nd.

Also, you should install LFS into C:\LFS, like it suggests - not into Program Files.

Thankyou!

Quote from Furiously-Fast :I agree with this idea. I was also thinking there could be a template for reporting bugs in the first post of the test patch thread. It could also be in bold so that it stands out from the spam posts.

Even better.

Quote from Scawen :Yes I might do that when the test patch is open again. I might just ban every person who makes an off topic post or an unrelated feature request. It's a bit time consuming though. I just wish people would understand the purpose of a test patch when it is explained to them. But that would require them to read, and there are a lot of excited children around.

Why bother mate? Im sure it would never sink into some people's heads. It would only waste more of your time. I assumed though, moderators were implemented for the reason your time is being wasted. To get rid of spam.

If it was possible, make a form when a user posts, so that they have no choice but to write subject, patch number, track, what location, extra comments. With that in place, you would have a good enough reason to start banning people who abuse the form to post spam. Just have an alert with the rule of abusing the form leads to ban. Could possibly piss people off, but your intelligent customers would understand.
