I'm not so certain Tor will complain..
Last pic shouldn't really apply to Katie Price, 5haz.
It's not as if you'd touch the sides.

Judging by that Muira video on youtube, the tyre scrub sounds vastly improved, still could be better but it is a massive improvement on what it was. 
My boat is about a metre longer. Catamarans handle rough water better but you have to put it into context. A wee little diddy catamaran is not going to be as stable as something bigger with a V-shaped hull. Inflatable ribs with V-shaped hulls are very very stable and can go side-on to large waves at very high speeds. A flat bottomed small catamaran will have a much greater risk of flipping over because it is so light and sits right up on top of the water. The Thundercat in one of your videos flipping over going side-on to a wave is exactly what I am talking about. In the video in your last post the water is choppy but not really that rough. It doesn't look like the boat is going anywhere near full speed either. 
I doubt it. My boat is designed to handle rough stuff. A Thundercat is a small inflatable. Sure it might be designed for speed but it won't be able to handle the sort of stuff I can go through, certainly not at high speed. I don't know what that video is supposed to prove, the sea there is not choppy at all. Maybe it's your idea of choppy but certainly not mine. That's very calm water with the occasional bigger wave coming into the shore. I also saw one of them tip over trying to go over a wave side-on at speed, which kind of proves my point.
Yes the bass boat is used for fishing purposes, but the boat you have put in your post is designed for very high speeds with a more shapely V'd hull. Some bass boats only have a small outboard on the back for trawling purposes and are built differently to the bass boat that you're talking about. The one you are talking about is quite clearly designed for high speed and not simply fishing.
If you look back earlier in the thread, I am aware of trim positions. As I have previously said, I have power trim on my boat where I can raise and lower the engine remotely from the drivers seat at the wheel using a switch on the gear lever. I didn't say that a boat sitting very deep in the water will plow the bow down. I was saying that by having more weight in the back it can be more dangerous with the boat sitting much lower in the water. Having the extra weight in the back will prevent the bow from plowing, which I said in my previous post, but with the boat sitting lower in the water there is a higher risk of taking on water, especially when the water is choppy if a wind blew up.
Of course the only way to go fast is by having a light boat and a big engine, but you need to have a boat, like that Thundercat, that is designed to take the weight while being light and remain stable. That being said, I highly doubt that Thundercat could handle the kind of chop on the water that my boat can. It looks like it is designed for flat calm water. As does the boat in your last post, which is designed for high speeds.
Please don't **** this up. :scared:
I have heard of the Thundercat but didn't know of the specs. Amazing the kind of crazy things that can be done. It must be very rigid at the back to take a 50hp outboard.
I disagree with your opinion however, I explained earlier in the thread. Get an engine with more power than is meant for the boat and the bow (nose) of the boat will plow into the water making it slower and use up a shit load more fuel. An engine with more power is very likely to be heavier so the boat will sit lower down in the water too. You can get an engine that gives higher power than is meant for a boat and you can make it work but you have to balance out the weight, power and stability first. To stop the bow of the boat plowing into the water then you need more weight in the back, but with a heavier engine the stern of the boat will already be quite deep in the water, which could compromise stability and end up getting quite dangerous, especially if the water gets a bit choppy!
Very nice looking gal Tor. Hope she has the personality to match. In the second pic you look like Sylvester Stallone in a boxing match....

That must be a pretty strong inflatable being only around 4 metres to withstand the weight and power of a 50hp! Like I said earlier in this thread, my 16ft aluminium quicksilver is overpowered with just a 40 on the back and it keeps up to speed with a 300hp centaur rib that does seascape expeditions where I go on holiday! Looks great fun though Gino, love catching airtime!
My mate Dave runs a 15hp honda on the back of his tender like your little quicksilver Gino. It looks ridiculous! He can't run it flat out or it will flip.
True it is a struggle, I said I was holidaying in the Highlands though, quite a ways from Kent. You do see some interesting things occasionally in Kent! I've seen shooting stars and lunar eclipses. Kent is crap though
Shooting stars are only visible for a split second as they burn up in the atmosphere. If you thought you saw one for 'only' 2 seconds then it's more likely to be an aeroplane!
Edit: I saw loads on holiday in the highlands of Scotland. There's no light pollution at all where I go, so the visible stars are so densely populating the sky that it's almost like a bright cloud filling the sky. There are masses of them. I counted 21 easily within an hour, in between occasional periods of cloud cover. It looks like this -
I missed the aurora (northern lights) sadly due to some poor weather while I was up there, which is a great shame. Usually would look like this for those that haven't seen it before -

Me and my girlfriend Sophie on holiday
I never claimed all 17 year olds are like me though, there is quite a significant difference. I was making the point that we're not all how YOU perceive us to be. I won't ask if you see how that works because I don't have time for you to figure it out as I'm just about to drive nearly 800 miles to the top of the UK, but obviously I shall be doing that while drugged up with a girl riding my cock and music blaring out as loud as it can go because I am 17 and that's how you believe we all are, right? Yes, I obviously think I am the centre of attention, you got me! Although you did drag me into this having a sly dig and then pretend you weren't talking about me. Grow a pair! "Mr. Dicks4life", who else are you going to be referring to? Douche
I don't post that regularly anyway, whereas you're posting very frequently, not always contributing anything to a discussion. Who's the real attention seeker here? I couldn't care less if you thought I was going around looking for attention. I mainly just read these forums now anyway incase there are updates (lol) and to check out the funny pics thread.You're most likely going to post a sarcy but quite daft reply, but I won't be posting back as it's not fair on Sean after already hijacking his thread asking for help. Funny really, going back to my point about your lack of contribution and attention seeking, you are the first person to post here, just to go and say "uhm.... Honestly I have no idea."
I guessed all of them as the filthy sexual terms because I am 17 and as such can only relate to these kind of things.
Your friend,
Mr.Dick4life
ROFL!
2 people on an internet forum and that makes every 17 year old the same? I am 17 but I don't go out on the piss, maybe once in a year during the holidays. I play football at a decent level so I have a reason not to. I don't go round looking to play the field of girls because I have a lovely girlfriend who I plan to be with long term. There are plenty of other 17 year olds like myself aswell. No need to be hostile about it, although it did make me laugh. If you're going to call someone a dick everytime he or she disagrees with you then good luck, not everyone will find it as funny as I do.

Come to GB! We have Foster's here too
I read it all but...
Thanks
Everything you have said has become invalid because of this statement.
Carry on!
I think the key word here is "existed". Maybe at one point it was the most realistic driving simulation, but there are more realistic sims available in terms of how the cars react and behave. Some rFactor mods are better, by a long shot. Niels' Supra, Formula Armaroli, HistorX are three that spring to my mind which offer handling that is more realistic and provides a more realistic feel once set up properly. Netkar Pro delivers a more realistic feel and response aswell in my opinion, however pale the content fares in relation to LFS. Not forgetting of course iRacing, which appears to be pulling away from all of the other "hardcore" sims at quite a swift pace!
