awesome, thank you.

i had it on near the tv for the f1 race.

too bad i didn't have some telemetry to turn off schumachers engine for 20 seconds or something.

north american champ car used to have a web site where you could get live updates from all the cars including lap times, section times, etc....

is there anything for f1 that's free like that?

Ok, time to change the timing belt on my wife's 2001 jetta 2.0 engine. it's got 5 pulleys, one of which is a belt tensioner. the trouble is that i can't figure out how it come loose. I HATE MODERN CARS WITH EVERYTHING PACKED TIGHTLY UNDER THE HOOD.

i've downloaded a VW shop manual but it doesn't explain what to do either.

i can't find my haynes manual jecause we just moved recently.

has anyone done this job?

lots of horsepower.

he's dragging the front brake and leaning on the front wheel to help the rear spin. i've done it, but nowhere near as well as he does.

i'm not pointing any fingers, i know it happens is many corners of F1, it's just refreshing to hear someone admit it for once.

This was the most exciting race weekend in my F1 history.

And I'm willing to admit that Mclaren was also up to some fishy buisness that day but this is still an interesting story.

Questions about masively multi player online games
speedfreak227
S2 licensed
I'm thinking about buying one of these but I don't want to buy the wrong one. From looking around the gaming stores I've seen a few that are probably on the short list:

1) Ever Quest
2) Dungeons & Dragons Online
3) World of Warcraft

Now, from talking briefly with guys I went to university with I know that World of Warcraft has different servers and once you start on one, you're stuck on it forever. At least that was how I enterpreted it. Can someone verify this and add any other information that might be useful to me please?

- Also, what are the fees for different games?
- How many people are playing which games?
- How many people are on a server at a time?
- Do I have a time limit per day, week, or month?
- Can other stronger characters come and kill me and take my stuff when I'm low level?
- I know EverQuest has many different add-ons or versions. Are they compatible with each other or do I chose only one to play?

Any other information that I haven't asked about that anyone can offer will be appreciated as well.

Thank you,

Quote from ORION :Is there actually some rule that says what the maximum distance between two cars must be?

i think it's something to the effect of:

"no cars may be in front of a ferrari under punishment of blocking"

ok, i just watched the onboard footage from massa from the link earlier in this thread.

TOTAL CRAP!!!!!!!

how they can give a penalty for that is ridiculous. illepall

speedfreak227


edit... I'M FURIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW CAN THEY GET AWAY WITH THIS!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!!??!?!

next thing you know, renault will be manufacturing weapons of mass destruction and their home facility will have to be bombed!

what a complete load of crap.

wait until next year when schumacher has retired and he STILL wins the world championship, then the conspiracy will be a bit more transparent.

this is the last straw in a completely manufactured season. i'm not watching anymore. it's just stupid.

edit, an interesting article

this is the BIGGEST LOAD OF BULL i've seen in a long time. Renault have a piece of suspension removed because it is apparently a moving aerodynamic device and yet ferrari can get away with this.

why don't the FIA(t) just give the championship to ferrari before the season starts?!?!?!?!?!?! illepall

this is absurd and INSULTING to everyone!

(Secret recording from FIA meeting) "Oh no, someone is faster than ferrari, we'd better change the rules so that ferrari can win. oh wait, ferrari is breaking the rules, oh, hang on, that means they'll be faster and even more likely to win. WONDERFUL. why didn't we change the rules that way in the first place!"

i'm totally sickened and disgusted by what's happened in the last few weeks, and looking back on a bunch of other little things that have been run along similar lines over the last few years i'm ALMOST ready to stop watching the Jerry Springer World Championship.

is there a vomiting smiley?

Does anyone know of a version of risk that plays as a window on the desktop? I love Armadillo Run because i can play it and watch a movie. I also play spider solitare for that reason as well, but i would LOVE to have risk as a window.

Do you know what pisses me off the most about all of this? The fact that I'm still getting up at 5am to watch this garbage!

I keep thinking that they'll put on a good showillepall but the last few years it's been turning into the automobile equivelant of the World Wrestling Federation.

Quote from thisnameistaken :I have to say I agree with the stewards on this one. How can you call a damper an aerodynamic device? It's the FIA's own stupid bloody fault for trying to use an inappropriate regulation to outlaw it.

i agree as well. according to the FIA (Ferrari support club) shouldn't shock absorbers be banned as well? what about steering wheels. it's OBVIOUS that anyone with a moveable steering wheel has an advantage. and those other teams with moveable brake and gas pedals. WHAT A BUNCH OF CHEATERS!!!!illepall

Computer projectors?
speedfreak227
S2 licensed
When I was at university my classes had projectors putting up a computer display on a huge screen. I'm not sure of the size, but the picture looked great.

I don't know much about projectors and am having trouble finding information on them online so I'm coming to you guys again to find the straight dope

What sort of resolutions to they put out?
What angle to they project at?
How far will they project?

I know that they all have different ratings but does anyone know of some specific examples of good ones and what they cost?

Thank you,
