what u mean? have you done that, because that's the best way to compare your lap and see where you're going wrong.

replay the lap u want analysed, and the lap before your fastest lap, press Esc and then Output data (or something similar), then watch that lap all the way through, and when its done, go to lfs->data>raf, and there will be your hotlap thing. upload that to hotlap analyser and compare it with any others already uploaded. ok?

practise then i'd say. press 4 to get the racing line, and just push it. also, F9 shows tire temps, try to get them green all the way through for best grip. also, use hotlap analyser - http://www.lfsworld.net/rafa/ and compare it to the WR to see where you're going wrong.

hope this helps and good luck

Quote from SamH :It looks like the 6000 should be good enough, honestly. It has a 10mpix sensor compared with the 8000's 12mpix, but unless you're going to be blowing images up to wall poster size you won't notice any difference - certainly not if you're only going to facebook or flickr your pics to share with others. The 6000 has some extra goodies in face detection over the 8000. So it really comes down to the ability to swim to 10ft, which is as deep as I would usually go, or 25ft which is definitely beyond swimming pool depths and will make your ears hurt a LOT. And you can drop the 8000 from 2 metres compared with 1.5 metres with the 6000. My recommendation is to avoid dropping your camera at all

Go with the 6000. It's not going to let you down, and probably will surprise you

thanks it's nice to finally be part of a thread that hasn't caught fire yet! as i always find whenever doing research for anything (usually for a birthday/christmas present), you end up getting put off really easily, e.g. from bad reviews on amazon. it happened when i was looking for a wheel (got DFP in the end), console (got PS3 in the end) and now this. i think you just have to say screw the reviews, as long as they're mostly good, they'll be fine.

anyway, i put both on my birthday list, which i've emailed to my mum and at the bottom it says "bear in mind that i love you xxx", so we'll see how it goes, maybe i'll post a short review on here if anyone's interested.

Cake or biscuit?

Under UK law, no Value Added Tax (VAT) is charged on biscuits and cakes — they are "zero rated". Chocolate covered biscuits, however, are subject to VAT, currently 15%. McVities classed its Jaffa Cakes as cakes, but in 1991, this was challenged by Her Majesty's Customs and Excise and the case ended up before the courts.[9] This may have been because Jaffa Cakes are about the same size and shape as some types of biscuit, and particularly because they are commonly eaten alongside, or instead of, traditional biscuits. A question that the court asked itself was "what criteria should be used to class something as a cake?"
McVities defended its classification of Jaffa Cakes as cakes. In doing so it produced a 12" Jaffa Cake to illustrate that its Jaffa Cakes were simply miniature cakes.[10]
McVities argued that a distinction between cakes and biscuits is, among other things, that biscuits would normally be expected to go soft when stale, whereas cakes would normally be expected to go hard. It was demonstrated to the Tribunal that Jaffa Cakes become hard when stale. Other factors taken into account by the Chairman, Mr Potter QC, included the name, ingredients, texture, size, packaging, marketing, presentation, appeal to children, and manufacturing process. Contrary to a commonly held belief, whether something is considered a 'luxury item' is not a test for VAT purposes.
Mr Potter ruled that the Jaffa Cake is a cake. McVities therefore won the case and VAT is not paid on Jaffa Cakes.[11]

Quote from SamH :I never heard of this camera before, so I went to look it up. It sounds excellent as an all-purpose camera. Good features and the images it turns out look excellent, with very good colours indeed.

Point-and-shoot cameras are a million times better for capturing the moment in social groups than DSLR cameras. They're inconspicuous and you can avoid the awful "heads together, say cheese" snapshot scenario that you get when you pull out a big camera. Not to mention, you don't look like a complete knob with a point-and-shoot. It sounds like it'll take quite a beating and the underwater feature is wicked. If I had extra cash, I think I'd go for this camera to stick in my pocket. Glad you mentioned it, Oli

thanks, i'm still debating which one though (6000 or 8000). do you think the 6000 looks ok? (i don't have the nerve to ask for the 8000 tbh)

i'm not saying he is at all, in fact he seems quite a nice guy, it's just that twice someone said "i think you mean FBM" and he kept calling it the F1 car. i'm not accusing its just funny
