wtf? 800 mill? is there a cash cheat i don't know about lol...

Is this thread still not locked LOL. 83 pages, of which i'd say 81 are irrelevant to the original thread topic

When money is no object V10 BMW E30 M3 http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?4515333

This is NOT THE SAME CAR, but gives some idea how quick it is, when next to a newish M3 v8. Makes the new m3 look quite sluggish.

i dunno i just couldn't stop laughing at the rear camber, and the beer bottle oil catch on the front bumper. Made me smile

most of them aren't. I've seen a lot of the build threads for them, mostly 10inch, 11inch rims etc (on civics AND skylines etc) so i really doubt they are using spacers.....

http://www.stancenation.com/ first car off the rank - Golf with 9.5inch wide rims. I guarantee he doesn't have spacers, just wide rims and NUTS offset.

http://www.stancenation.com/2010/07/06/bosozoku-style-civic/ Civic with 9 and 10 inch wide rims. Looks like the rear suspension has collapsed but if that's what floats your boat *shrug*

Most people that can afford such expensive rims (BBS, Volk, Work, Schmidt etc) wouldn't bother with spacers. Thats a poor mans trick :P Those rims are damned expensive, probably worth more than that old civic!

I can't believe this hasn't been said
Test Drive Unlimited. Most fun you can have with your mates blasting thru tunnels in supercars Not the most realistic, but still worth a play.

I'd agree with NFS Porsche unleashed/porsche 2000. Definately one of my favourite from that series. I'd also say Forza 3 (they were all pretty good, but go for the latest one)
And Gran Turismo 4 or 5 when it comes out.

lol just buy an old ps2 they are like $20 :P

Also WinUAE for Amiga http://www.winuae.net/ , and MAME for arcade http://www.mameui.info/

John - try reading some of the detailed physics explanation threads around the place, for a truly mind melting experience! The knowledge level of some of the people who come here is amazing, i'm afraid most of the time i need it "dumbed down" to a level i can understand :P

MX5 is also good. But i'm pretty biased toward the mk1 MR2. However, it MUST be handled with respect. It's not the kinda car you want to scrimp on tyres etc on either!

Was free with the Collectors edition, not with the regular one iirc.

No Toyota's??? :/

And his account name is? Commence spam in 3.....2.....

THat pisses me off, how about giving them to families who need a car but can't afford to buy one?

Do you ship to Australia?

what version of LFS are you running?

Quote from gtpsharky :

PunkBuster scans the memory contents of the local machine to detect (and prevent) cheating... if you aren't doing anything iffy PunkBuster won't be affecting your ability to play online in the slightest

PnkbstrB heartbeat failures. I've tried all the stuff on the pnkbstr website. Google it up, it's quite a common (and seemingly unfixable) problem with this software.

hmm TDU2 or NFS hp2010.....i'm still pissed at EA for using punkbuster in BFBC2 (which is STILL giving me drama's meaning i can't play online for more than 30 seconds)

Would like to see more video of what the game plays like, how they've done the physics etc. Shift was VERY average imho (at least the PC version) I don't like upgrading cars and then finding they feel like the clutch is slipping, even with the best clutch available.

Quote from Theafro :

You'll find that most similar r/l cars are a LOT more predictable than the RAC. It's chassis is sensitive to throttle inputs like a good mid engined car should be, but when you combine that with a torquey turbo lump, poor weight distribution and limited setup options, it makes is a tough car to fully get to grips with.

If you don't trust your car you won't enjoy racing it, so not many people do.

the problem i find with the RAC, is that it doesn't turn in well under braking (weight transfer to front) and is difficult to control on corner exit with throttle. I've tried to be damn gentle on exit, or even hold it in a slide, but it's bloody hard! The window for being able to drive the car fast is tiny compared to most cars, but it's still fun to try drive a fast time in it, as it is possible, and when you get it right, it's scaryfast. But i still prefer the LX6/LX4

hahaha visible chassis flex massive panel gaps
could be interesting with tweak etc LOL

So has anyone bought this? I tried to find it for PC at the local shops, but could only find 360/PS3 copies, so i want an opinion if possible, is it worth finding a copy of this?

it's the 2nd where i am?

dang :/

Always be aware big vehicles have big blindspots. We had a ute almost get destroyed by a LHD (bogger/ug loader) when it tried to get past, it hadn't gotten positive commucation from the loader op, loader op didn't see the ute, articulated and pinned the ute to the wall. Loader op didn't even notice hitting the ute a couple times, he only noticed when the occupants of the ute shone their lamps on the roof.

Don't ever assume on a road that a truck can see you. Don't cut trucks off (pull in front, not leaving the truck braking room. They need LOTS)
I'm sure anyone who has driven a medium to large sized truck, or any other vehicle would agree.

Here's a study for Surface Mining equipment blindspots
