Quote from The Very End :

Thanks for the videos
Looks good, wish there was more damage to the car bodies tho. Bumpers get smashed and such, but seems there is no damage to the actually car shape?

Be aware the damage is tiered.

Premium race / rally models - most
Premium production - mid (although I still see very little on production models)
Standards - least (although I think there is more deformation on standards than premium production)

What mentalist decided it would be a good idea to ONLY allow you to change tyres in the "driving options" before the race, and nowhere else....not even in the tuning section.....

Ouuuffff

427 Cobra + Comfort hard + Test track = fun

Is there a list of LFS'ers PSN's anywhere?

Few pages back, there is a big list.

Its down to driving technique then, its amazing how much difference it can make.

I don't think any of the roads I drive on get gritted, and its amazing the amount of people who sit there wildly spinning, when I don't

I'd look at tyres first.......

I guess its nice to have the option not to drive, but some of us have to get to work no matter what....don't think I've ever missed a day due to not being able to get in, I can remember seeing temps of -10C some years......

Sick to death of being stuck behind people that have absoloutly no idea how to drive in cold conditions, and those people driving at 15mph

You can't "offline", but you can when connected to XBL

Interesting, using someone who's never driven said car/s (outside of iracing) to give feedback......not sure if its a good idea, or not.

I'd imagine someone who commentates on the sport has "picked up a lot of knowledge", not sure you'd want them helping out developing something as fundemental as physics though......

Quote from CoolColJ :

Anyone unlock the warehouse/hangar and wind tunnel photo mode locations yet?

Nothing listed in the GT5 unlocks thread

Offline is a little different, I just wonder if they have the server-side capability for over 50'000 different leaderboards, don't forget the server issues they had when the game was first released......

Quote from Boris Lozac :

Why wouldn't they have it for all cars?

Because all cars and all tracks would mean about 50'000+ different leaderboards.....

How are these online time trial leaderboards going to work then?, surely they can't have a leaderboard for every car, so how are they going to divide the cars up?, its not like they can do it per class (PP).....

I wish they would ban these friggin protests, they do NOTHING, they cost the country millions and are just an excuse for the great unwashed to cause agro.

Think I might move to Russia or China........

Have just caught up on Resident Evil: Extinction and Resident Evil : Afterlife, which were quite entertaining in a "switch off brain, and laugh at the blood" type of way.

Anyone seen "The Horde"?, I've got it in "the queue" but haven't watched it yet.

I think its "up there", considering just how terrible some of the standard cars look, drags the whole look down to a level akin to a PS2 game in some cases.

Quote from Gills4life :

Going back to the topic, I don't see how spoiling yourself with a take-away once a week would prevent you from carrying on running 3 hours and cycling hundreds of miles, since you are remaining active and you are not making a habit of eating crap every single day.

It wouldn't, but that wasn't the original point, the point is, that "appearing" to be healthy and fit doesn't mean you are.

I eat tons of things I shouldn't, but nothing anywhere near as bad as McD's or KFC, that stuff is really bad, there are things that McD put in their food that are properly poisoinous, not things that would make you obese, granted, but things that can, quite badly, affect kindey and liver function amongst other things.

I don't think things like that should be seen as a treat they are terrible.

Depends what you class as excessive (and again, we are focusing in weight....)

I can run for 3hrs, cycle hundreds of miles in a day, sure I am fit(ish), but i am not as healthy as I could be.

Autumn ring mini is quite good for karts

Quote from Gills4life :

If you can run for 2 hours then surely it's safe to say your body is on the healthy side?

Err....no, no I don't agree with that, being able to run for 2 hours, means you can run for 2 hours, its got no relation on being healthy.

The point I am making, is that, these days people can't see past "overweight = unhealthy, normal weight = healthy", its not that straight forward.

Eat what you like, makes no odds to me, but the fact of the matter is, just because the outside seems in shape, the insides follow, because they don't

Being active doesn't give you the green light to eat shite.

Quote from Gills4life :

Doesn't really matter at all if you have a take-away now and then so long as you are active. Luckily I'm playing/coaching football nearly 5 times every week so I can get away with a pizza or KFC once or twice a week! Feel crap the morning after though to be fair.

Its does matter, regardless of you doing activity, there are still plenty of bad things in take away crap that you don't want to be eating (transfats, chemicals etc etc).

Just because you are thin, it doesn't make you healthy.

There is a W.I.P. one here

3 stone in 6 months?, its a slippery slope mate, kick it to the kerb while you can!!
