If you make a whole realistic hi-res pack of the Scirocco and release it, I will worship you as God (currently Atheist).
Unbelieveable work as always Luathas!

For you guys to sacrifice Christmas and a winter break to improve Live for Speed for yourselves, for us, for the ones who play it...
You guys really deserve a big Christmas gift or something in return!

AHAHAH I love the space invaders one!!
Combat Arms - the L96A1 (AWM) was so horribly inaccurate I missed 10 shots in a row, even if I had it perfectly centered on the opponent. That gun's accuracy shouldn't make it a sniper rifle but it's for balancing reasons... There's hackers everywhere in that game too.
Oh, in Super Mario Sunshine, I hated the pinball machine part where you have to get 9 red coins in what looks like a pinball machine. Took me forever.

You have just made me regret getting the DFP. I should've waited and gotten a DFGT...
Have fun with your wheel though!
If I can recall, I read an article that said the makers of Far Cry and Crysis decided not to make their games PC exclusive anymore because of piracy. I mean, from just one site that hosted torrents, Crysis was downloaded roughly 900,000+ times. That's a lot of money lost.
I want Call of Duty 4 so badly and I was considering pirating it, yet I couldn't get myself around to do it.
Plus there's the fact that there can be malicious stuff in there like viruses and spyware.

Does she have any relatives nearby that she can trust?
And I'm assuming her father is gone so she can't help from him.
And I f*cking hate those kinds of parents. Not only do they come up with lame excuses for your safety (supposedly) but they benefit from the child's powerlessness and the child can't do a thing.
And thank God that you stopped her from self-mutilation.

Oh boy oh boy oh boy!!
Now I can do big rig racing!!
How is it scary? I find that NFSU2 simulates the ricer inside of people. And its totally possible to have body kits as ugly as those. It's totally possible to get that ugly body kit on that ugly car and have that ugly car go use some ugly hydraulics and show up in some ugly street race then end up on an ugly magazine with a hot girl on there, but it makes the car even uglier. It's all totally realistic, but it's ugly.
To be more serious, it simulates a bit of street racing. Sure, no cops, not a lot of traffic, car doesn't get damaged (excluding cosmetic damage), no dead people, but it looks like that, and it's dangerous.
So it simulates ricerism. Ricerism is scary itself, but a simulator that emulates it, not so scary. I'm beginning to wonder if the creators of NFSU thought those ugly body kits were actually really good looking or they put them in there as a joke of some sort.

Very true. We shouldn't have conclusions until some sort of proof is shown to us or some experiment is done. Otherwise, they're really just assumptions, opinions, or theories (though they can be convincing). I mean this game simulates driving fairly well but it isn't perfect. Even complex ballistic calculating computers can't tell you how to adjust a sniper scope to get the perfect shot. They get it right but they can also get it wrong.
You can have as many facts and theories as you would like to prove something right but it only takes one experiment with the contradictory results to make it all wrong. Then we'd have to change to understand and embrace the concept. It's too bad stubborness gets the best of us and turns nicely cut proofs and results into a bitter war of words.
Speaking of proof, I haven't seen a lot of it in this thread. Though I haven't totally caught up in this thread, it's mostly a debate of theories that are actually true. Hopefully this is a bit of evidence to show that driving in between the extremes of "drifting" and "gripping" is quick, if not quicker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk2p2nRK-p4
Edit: I actually wish that I or some other person can try "grifting" (between the limit of grip and drifting) out ourselves. *sorry for the lame new vocabulary*

We don't need one. That's like saying there should be an Arabian drift forum, a demo forum, a cruise forum, a banger forum, a rallycross forum, etc.
People don't have to see this thread either but they have the urge or the bravery to express their opinion. And express it they do. It's all about behavior really and besides, this is a community connected by the amazing (and disgusting) Internet, not a segregated forum.
Though this discussion is beaten far past death and the afterlife, I really like some of the more intelligent bits of input or insight given to us by people like Zen or Tristan. If there was any easier way to understand the concept of slip angles and tire dynamics, this thread had it in between the arguments (not exactly where I would like it but knowledge is power!).

Man that's creepy. And I like cats too.
I wonder if it is lightweight...

God that looks scary. It's looks like riding through a foggy Halloween night or through something...
AWESOME!
It's odd how some signs light up though, kind of like ghost signs or radioactive signs.

Wow, that render is spreading around the net like crazy.
Anyways, it should be called the "NSX's successor".

Trust me, I have one. It works for the PC. All you need are the wingman drivers I posted.
Both are compatible with the PC. All you need to do is find the Wingman Drivers here: http://www.wingmanteam.com/lat ... ware/latest_soft_main.htm
After getting them installed, just plug the USB cable right into the computer and proceed calibrating. After that you can set your wheel up (nice guide here) : http://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/W ... tting_up_a_Logitech_Wheel
If you do use the DF GT though, you can't use some of the buttons like the red wheel, horn (probably), and the +/- buttons (probably). I'd still take it because of the points I mentioned above about it vs the DFP but its your choice.
Driving Force Pro is a good wheel. 900 degrees of rotation, lots of buttons, sturdy and responsive. However, it rotates by itself slowly (makes drifting more of a chore) and is loud. It is also pretty resistant to fast and strong steering. You can probably find one for $100 or less (you can get one for $80 if you looked hard). In my opinion, this is the best bang for your buck.
Driving Force GT is an improvement of the Driving Force Pro. Bigger wheel makes it feel better and more realistic. It has a similar but different set of buttons compared to the DFP. The gears inside have changed (maybe the motor too) so the wheel moves faster than the DFP and is quieter (its pretty close to a G25). It is also smoother and less resistant than the DFP. I found one for roughly $110 - $120. This wheel fits your price range nicely and is very good quality. I would take it over the DFP.
The MOMO was good from what I have heard. Only has 270 degrees of rotation and has fewer buttons on it. I don't know much else about it though except that it is really cheap.
A little comparison of the G25, DFP, and DF GT in speed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH7ggFbKFAs
Notice how the DF GT starts sooner but the G25 catches up to it. It spins nearly as fast as the G25. The DFP takes a while though.

I hated it when I tried going around a hairpin on RallyX but the rears didn't lock up and I slammed into a few people (it was the Blackwood RallyX course. I was on asphalt and my rears had too much grip). They vote-kicked me.
I'd love to see the handbrake adjustment feature back.
