Quote from piggy501 :

Tristan is there some rule that means you can slag off every other racer person because you are one too?? Surely have a little respect for the guy, you can't deny he was (one of) the best in his time. Well. I suppose one to their own, or something.

Although i wouldn't go so far as to call the guy a "cock", i can totally see where Tristan is coming from...
I try to ignore what sporting personalities do outside of their respective field of expertise, and what the media say about them, i try to just take them for what they are/do whilst doing their job, i have no interest in their "other" life...

Just watched it after seeing this thread.

I never really knew much about Jim Clark until i watched this to be honest, but what a legend huh!
Would have been great to have been around at the time i should imagine...

Lol, they're already getting us to cut back on electricity usage (Energy saving lamps in new builds / outlawing regular incandescent lamps in the near future) due to the fact that the National Grid is nearing capacity. What the hell do they think is gonna happen when everyone is charging their sh*tmobile when they get to/back from work?! There will be more power cuts than in Venezuela! (No offence meant to the guys from Venezuela, there was just a lot of power cuts whilst I was there... :schwitz

Yeah, that was pretty funny

I don't understand, why would they use a pic of LFS while talking about Forza?
For the rallycross subject i suppose?...

Oh man, i have all three episodes sitting in my planner waiting to be watched (far too busy over the weekend), and now i'm not so sure i should bother. Was really looking forward to them too...

Well there we go
Must try and find and old video player, i wanna watch it now...

I use an alcohol spray to remove thermal paste, works a treat, evaporates, and is cheap as chips..
Normally can get it from an opticians, as it's used for cleaning glasses

Hmmm, just found the one i thought it was, although it's called 'No Escape'...
And it's Ray Liotta in it...

Oh man! i have that on tape, whats it called??!

/rummages through old VHS stash....

If you don't buy what you want, who else will?
Always fancied a DSLR myself, but every time i look at them, i just cannot justify spending that amount of money of something that only does a marginally better job than my Casio EX-Z1000 point and shoot... (real world comparisons of course, not under the microscope )

lol yeah, just labelled them

Nice DSLR

Ok, the joys of owning your own home, you get to spend money on fun things like...


Vaillant ecoTEC Plus 831 - Condensing Combi Boiler.



Vaillant VRC 430 - Digital weather compensator & thermostat.


Far more fun than blowing £1000+ on an uber pc...

It appears it is only there to stop the handle moving around in the display case.

Correct answer imo

Yeah, already an LFS group mate, did you look first?

Very sorry, but can't make it. I JUST this second got in from work, mega long day...
Maybe next time

Sorry for the slightly off topic, but i thought some may find it interesting...

Quote from theirishnoob :

though Any car could end up hitting a tree....

Even a micra... ( though chances are the micra will drive away... Stupid robust engineering )

Well, tree/lampost, same effect...

65mph impact, speedometer was stuck there anyways, my friend walked out of that with a couple of scratches...

I'm in

Yeah, 19:30UTC would be a little late for me too, but i'll still try to race if it stays at that...

Quote from Gnomie :

I drove the RAC almost exclusively for half a year in the beginning of my LFS career. In my opinion it's the most rewarding car to drive once you get comfy with it. Also it feels a lot more real than the FZ5, which just slides around like crazy. The RAC's understeer makes it feel more "grounded" in a way, which I think is good.

So: give it time, have some patience, and I assure you the RAC can be a load of fun!

May i suggest that you take some of your own advice and give the FZ5 a proper go? Providing you don't have a button as your throttle, the FZ5's throttle is suprisingly easy to modulate if you actually try...

Both the FZ5 and the RAC are much loved to many, you just have to take a look at some replay's from Danowat's Roadsport Cups to see how great they are to race.

Aaarghh, not gonna make it i don't think, waiting for a guy to come and give me a quote for a boiler change!!
He should have been here at 7pm...

When i read the thread title, i thought it was about masturbation... :hidesbehi


Never heard of them though, i'll have a listen...

The guy wants a PS2, end of...

Perhaps for a similar reason me and a friend went out a bought PSX's last year, plus a link up cable, and 2 copies of DOOM. DOOM was awesome over link up back in the day, and it hasn't lost it either...

$20 for a momo in decent nick sounds spot on to me mate
