anyone know when the firmware update will be released for old wheels?

yeah, it happened to me once in a race. but i hadn't charged my batteries for about a month. it was pretty embarrassing.

u could use the longer cable for the shifter instead of the wheel, and use batteries for the pedals. what i reccomend is buying some energizer 2500nmh batteries along w/ a recharger. they last for a very long time.

lol i just realized it was florian. i actually remember racing him in the demo ages ago.

yeah the shifter is removeable. it has a 6speed shifter and also a sequential shifter. you would have to make your own custom mount or buy one to put it somewhere else. the normal price is $350

yeah the 9600gt is a pretty damn sweet graphics car. maybe the best bang for the buck. http://legitreviews.com/article/666/1/

soo... how much longer till 3.0? till it's done i guess.

www.newegg.com. actually, ATi's cards consume less power than the nvidia counterparts, and the drivers are starting to get decent again from what i've read.

or you could use www.tigerdirect.com
oooh... you mean they put the parts you select together well, there's sites like alienware, and i can't think of the others off the top of my head. >_<

newegg has some systems that are partialy put together (mobo +case+cpu+powersupply+ram etc) as well as full.

is there realy any point in buying a quadcore now (other than crysis and high end 3dapps)? it seems like it'd be best to get a dualcore athlon x2 or a duo, and then drop 200bucks or more on then ext gen of quads when they come out in the next few weeks/months. in many games dual cores running at higher speeds outpreform quads that cost much more.

yeah, the current specs of the f08 are okay. we just need more realistic physics .

i coulda sworn that they already explained that they are letting us keep the wheels. or something. unless you pay for shipping, it would be more money out of their pockets, unless they already payed.

yup. teamspeak and vent= LuLz

it would be cool if we could upload our own horn sound to lfsworld.

i just saw the video w/ the girl committing suicide. i like some disturbed songs

yeah cus the rules say before 2000. u guys can try and get it anways, but i doubt anyone will heh.

its good to hear the centering bug is fixed in the retail wheel. i don't think i will do much online racing until i get the retail wheel. also, my pedals cut out once in a while...

you payed for a beta wheel and you're getting a replacement? or are you one of the testers? i'm confuzed... i'll read through the previous posts again, heh. i think arrassador means if you bought the retail wheel, it is being shipped, not that he was sending a replacement for the beta.

Quote from Mazz4200 :

Looks like a still from one of the worst (most cringe-worthy) movies ever made. I'm almost embarrassed to admit i've seen it, but, is it "Toys" ?

Correct i know i'm not the only person onfortunate to have seen that movie. Luckily it was when i was still a child, so i have very few memories of it.

i just saw for the 1st time zatoichi
is this a difficult movie to figure out? i post a pic of a scene w/ a more recognizable actor in it. i'll wait and see if anyone can figure it out.

that's beat takeshi... so... is it sonatine?

which guy fell down 2nd? they both hit the ground at almost the same exact moment.

Quote from SamH :

I read it a few weeks ago, thought about it for a moment and just figured "ASS".

CTRA doesn't have live admin, but it's not a pay-to-play service. It's also important to remember that they've held a whopping 1,759 races (at time of writing). We've held 122,303. They've clocked up an astounding 28,000 race entries while we've only managed to muster just shy of 900,000. They've raced a stonking 820,000 laps. We've only cranked out, between us, a measly 7 million laps.

I'm afraid I have no idea what their reporting procedures are like. I only know what ours are like. I don't know if theirs is more or less comprehensive than ours, or if it's as transparent. I don't know if they have a downloadable replay of every single reported/upheld incident ever reported on their system, like we have on ours, nor do I know if their appeals system is as functional as ours, or if their determination to uphold real-racing standards compares at all with ours. I just know we got a bit of a knocking by Mr Tellbom in ASS. We didn't skip a beat

lol ASS is biased. people just need to stop being lazy and report extremely bad driving or wreckers. of course in the lower rungs there will be more accidents. There don't seem to be many in the classes above beginners... i wonder what the statistics are for each server. they might even be on the website... i'll go have a look

4870's and 4850's are coming out in june, right? if you keep waitin, you'll be waiting forever. but... the 4870 is supposed to be really really fast. and it might cause a price drop on the 3870 when released.

that was very good
