yh
i th9ink the readon i like it is all the detail of the grain and the ruggedness

more great pics for mr dwb

im not quite sure why but my favorite is the sign

yh it works out at a square 97miles x 97 miles about

sounds good

0.36 is ok but i will warn you it has quite a few bugs in it atm although they are bringing in a patch in the next few days

lool yh with a normal car maybe but land rovers will turn to a pile of rust at a slight sight of salt lol

ohh you lucky bugger, you have a new lens and you have a nice rc chopper, and it looks like you can fly it well :P

one thing with rc i never ventured into cos i knew ide be bad at it, aircraft especially helis

true about the salt, i know a guy who restore an old land rover who after every drive in winter would jet was the whole car, underside especialy and then put it in his garage wich he heated to dry the water and had a dehumidifier in there lol, his whole garage was like one of those car bubble things lol

Quote from TiJay :

Thanks guys, I'll try and dry the carpets out quickly and get it valeted.

I'm glad it won't corrode the frame and fall apart though... And I'm staying away from water from now.

it wont as long as water isnt trapped anyware, it is why alot of land rovers end up in such a rusty mess, after ever dunking in water make sure the car is dry in all the places that seem suseptable to collecting water and any mud and crap that has collected is cleaned out, as long as thats done it will be fine

somehow i see it happening lol

as for the dtms being good racing, there ok, the best bit about goign and watching them is the noise especially the audis

im on vm and for my schooling need a line that is reliable and thats what i got, its also bloody fast andd as for sky, i had to set my sisters up and its awful and the security is wpa which oesnt agree with my sisters laptop and they dont give you the router access codes

wow dwb, those are great, and looks like a beautifal area were you live, i envy you enormously.

you said you were doing a review, do you do alot of reviews? and if so were can i find them?

lol that was legendry

lol bike+lorry populated industrial estate = fail

trucks are still a bikers worst enemy and always will be for that reason alone although newer trucks arnt as bad

Quote from danthebangerboy :

Indeed. Old volvo's and ford cargos. Pull a fuse out = Unlimited!

i didnt mean that old i meant more older (anything with a manual tacho really tbh)

just tell the tacho system it has smaller diameter wheels on it lol, gives you a bit more speed and it dont show on the tacho, but the new systems make this impossible(i think lol)

yh dan it is totally stupid on a dual caridge way, often you will see forein truckers doing it more often as they can be quicker depending on country, although saying that there were a few tricks in the older trucks to make em go a bit quicker

all i was saying is dont be so hard on truckers, yes here are some idiots out there, more than there used to, but dont just generalise all truckers driving on a minority

people judge truckers without really understanding

i dont think peopel often realise about trucks and about drving them, and how you have to drive them, with a truck one of the most important things is fuel economy especially with diesel the price it is now so have to keep slowing down ruins fuel economy, thats why if you see 1 truck try to overtake another, you will never see him lift of, ever

its worrying when your in the cab of a truck and see some of the stupid things people will do infront of a 40 ton truck

i think it would be more sueful as a system to use in multi class with the fastest going first because it would help stop different classes getting messed up at t1 etc and give accident chance to clear if the starts were staggered a bit

lol just bout it for the ps3 and its good fun

lol about the guy in the pic, when i heard about it i wondered what sort of things could end up hapening, if i did it ide point the camera at something else like a sign or something lol ill let your imagination run with that one

lol mike

the argument was over british snow not proper snow lol

lol i know someone with a rusty lol

edit to remove double post: i agree really bob, its changed severly even in my lifetime, its all the health and saftey hyperactivity, ohh someone might slip and smack there knee, wtf, especcially when you consider the brutality of some of the rugby pe lessons that happen when the teachers are doing the brutality part lol

yes it depends on conditions weather its best to sit on top or cut down into the surface, bvut i think tbh depending on the situation 4wd can be a good or bad thing, well not bad but not helpful.

i just think that in snowy conditons 4wd can be a help, mainly because it would allow a vehicale to get out of conditions 2wd vehicles would get stuck in. i think there was a couple stories on telly about buses being towed out by 4x4's ?

Quote from tristancliffe :

Roads aren't often totally straight. Some have corners. 4WD doesn't help on corners on roads - you still have just 4 contact patches, and the number of driveshafts doesn't change how much grip they can provide (well, it sort of does, but in terms of this discussion it is negligable).

ah yes i i must admit i do agree here, the ony thing here is that a 4wd vehicle wil tend to have wider tyres than most cars, there are of corse exceptions, but i used that as an example because these sorts of situations are best tackled at low speed, like small residentail streets.

edit: amp got it about right

btw tristan i was not talking about straight streches of road, i was talking about tigh corners etc which imo are the most hazerdoes

well tristan ide like to see you win that arguement with and experianced offroad driver r someone who drives in sever condtions regually

as for low range and wheel torque, yes you are right but the ability to travel at slower speeds and therefore having more control is surely the safer option
