Depends also form POV in the viewer; i played a lot with that but it's impossible to make it look right from any angles, so i just leave them at the right proportions.

For a moment i believed that i won!

Eh, at 24.00 (Italy time) was a little too late for lfs!
I think when you organize events at 12.00 (your time zone) it's better because you can have all us euro people.
So i hope that you will not be busy with work/study/life and organize other very entertaining rally racing.
Cmon everyone, LFS rally it's fun! And it may not look but also really challenging!

Rollbar? Reinforced chassis? VERY RESISTANT dampers (gravel/mud/etc setups) Engine it's pratically street (evo5 gr.n had less hp than street version due to air restrictor!), but dont think gr.n are street cars expecially the 2000 turbo awd class due to rivality between subaru and mitsubishi.
In fact the rs version dont have even the electrical windows.
Try one in snow without snow tires but instead with standard ultralow tarmac tires and 17 wheels (now) or 18 (from the picture of the new x).
You will end up crashing at same corner of the Ferrari guy (the Ferrari example it's purely casual it's just for think of a sport car made for tarmac).
At very slow speed you can sure go safely on snow.
But it's the same for every other car.
In fact i was very surprised of how they handle in snow.
But badly surprised.

You may be surprised of the quality and tecnical specs of motorbikes carbs. Usually we think of old tipe auto carbs, but there are motorbikes carbs that are fine peace of engineering.
It's not carbs vs injection what i mean... but again my bad english...

Evo in any conditions? With 18 wheels and super low tarmac tyres?
Except from wet tarmac where AWD will be a great help for using all 300hp, in snow or gravel roads you will crash at 1st corner like the ferrari guy behind you.
AWD doesnt mean you can go everywhere, and i'm not talking about off-road.
Mitsubishi and Subaru were "forced" to produce AWD so they can compete in rally gr.n plus now they can show it as an added feature for road car.
But on gravel roads you will destroy the car even without crashing (bumps big rocks etc.) Rally cars, even gr.n are way different than stock ones. "Recognition" cars (wich are "street" cars) usually dont last too much on gravel.
Sorry for my bad english!

For Tristan: i saw you in your site driving a Lancia Stratos.
How was it to drive? I just saw it once, and it was parked

I was joking! I like to do my skins!
I use template too! but still i'm very very very slow !
Maybe because i like to do perfect replica skins but still 2.5 hour for that it's out of my reach!

Good job! And fits perfect on xrg!
Expecially considering i dont like this tipe of skins!

Long sleeve for me, but i think colored logo are the best expecially on a black background, non colored logo seems "cheap".
However i will buy one of those regardless the design, i really like the idea of lfs shirts.

Hmm, arent vauxall RHD Opels?
Seems an Opel Corsa clone to me.
But Opel corsa arent FWD?
Then it's a nice attempt to get rid of this boring FWD companys policy.
So +1.
It is legal in England to do that to a car? I mean it's street legal after that? (dont know if it's in England but i know Vauxall are form there so i may be wrong)

WARNING: as my english it's not top notch about car/tecnical words i will call "brake pads" the thingy that it's pumped against the disks when braking.

From the movie posted it seems normal sparks from "brake pads"; some compounds produce it some not, you can see it on a peaugeot 106 or on WRCs.
It depends on the brake pads compound, and if you see it also during axceleration mind that Gronholm is known to have almost always left foot on brake ( they made also a joke when he was on peugeot about that, but i dont remember).

Googled "brake pads", yes they are what i intend to say.

Hmm, i doubt that.
Diablo it's not an italian word and it's more likely to be addressed as masculine (il diablo not la diablo); countach it's a slang italian words that means "wow" or "impressive" and you can refer to it as you want (no feminine or masculine).
However in italian car it's feminine so the correct way to say it's using feminine articles so it's "la diablo", "la countach", "la enzo", "la bmw" etc...
