I sure miss the old Conedodger / Ironhorse pub days

hello and goodbye!

Came back for like 4 days when S3 came out. Came back again last week and forgot up until I visited the forums, that S3 was even out while I've been bouncing around xfg/xrg demo racing and s2 drifting just as fine. So no. Not worth.

Still here waiting for my 10 year mark so I can disappear again.

People need to realize that they're only making their candidate look worse each disrupted speech. I haven't read or saw anything about Trump's supporters going and hijacking Bernie's or anyone else's rally. Everyday, more and more people are switching over to Trump because of the non-sense.

Who is Peter Collins and is he my daddy?

I'll nominate my own, but i got a chuckle out of reading it many years later.

So are there any populated racing pubs in S3? Trying to gravitate back to something like Cargame or Ironhorse when i was borderline alien.

Hi guys. I made this quick video on a whim while in starbucks. Figured i'd have a go at editing videos again, so i taught myself what i learned many years ago all over again in about an hour lol. It's super shitty and manly just a render test.

Dreamy Pop is Bae

It's **** ugly.

With console sims, it's not so much as "dumbing" down the physics. Itsr doing what SMS did with PCARS and throwing us aa bunch of controller options we've never heard of. PCARS blows GT and Forza out the window for me, even with a heavily assisted controll scheme. I can't imagine what it feels like with a wheel.

BUMP!

Considering i've been using the old site for almost 8 years, i don't like the new layout lol. It'll grow on me over time though and i appreciate the update.

And honestly, the best ever intro. Ever.

Quote from Racer Y :

Does it have to be a car?
I get stuck in multi-hour gridlock on my commute regularly so I'm thinking Earth Mover or Tank. Not a Monster Truck. You really shouldn't get those dirty.

Kinda off topic. but during those commutes, I come across quite a few of those types of cages that are in this price range, driving along in the same mess.
Yeah. Guys making up for their inadequacy in cars able to go from zero to sixty in two seconds...Lucky if they can go from Fifteen to Twenty five in Thirty Minutes.
Anyways, know what all these over-priced cage drivers have in common? Sore necks.

....1940's Harley Knuckle head with a hard tail and springer forks....
A Honda Rune... A 1968 honda CB 750... A Vincent Velocette.
A Triumph Bonneville... A real Triumph. A leaker bobber chopper at that.
And a 1973 Ford Ranchero GT with a Blueprinted 351 Cleveland, glass packs, and a mark IV transmission with a shift kit and a sunroof Like I used to have to have to pick up the bikes when they break down.

I remember my list i included a truck and trailer to make it more feasible. Just used a Dodge RAM 2500 and a shitty featherlite trailer though haha.

What a crash filled race this year. I came home from work late tonight ( 9 pm with 10 hours to go ). Now with just under 7: 30: 00 left, i've looked up from my bed and phone to see the Corvette in the garage replacing something on 3 different occasions.

Now as i type this, they are restarting the race and "racing" on portions of the track. Interesting..

Theres a old DnB song i really loved but can't remember it.

They both released for free several years ago and if anything they'd fit under a soulful DnB style. I swear one of the artists has a enza or eza at the end of his name. Part of one song's name is storm and in one of the songs, the female vocalist is singing "side by side". I remember the youtube videos was pretty blue as well.

Yeah no kidding. I see more of them than v6 mustangs now!

For mouse it is easy to drive, you can turn wheel really fast, that gives you a lot of advantage.
Same goes for most of wheel users if you put steering wheel degrees low. Basically it is wrong but you only cheat yourself if you do so

Quote from Mp3 Astra :

I played a pre-alpha version of the game for an hour this morning - you can read my thoughts here: http://www.expertreviews.co.uk ... codemasters-refined-racer

In short: yes, it's simcade but it feels infinitely better than Grid 2

Eek. That's could be good or bad news considering it's pre-alpha. Someone higher up could complain it's too hard and back to the drawing board it goes.

Quote from Jakg :

Why not a daily? Surely something like an M3 is the ultimate daily driver?

Quote from e2mustang :

Worst semi auto gearbox of all times.(yes im bmw fan as u might know)

That's why. I had a bad feeling that it would be the case, but i saw such a wide variety of opinions on several sites. Besides, i'll save the daily antics for a miata.

Quick question. Anyone have decent experience with a SMG trans? I'm really thinking about getting a E46 M3 Vert and i kinda made it apart of my "5 years from now" goal.

I'm not going to daily it (although it'll be tempting), and i'm looking to drive it only on the weekends or a really nice weekday. Also if you have experience with anything i should know, speak up!

Quote from DANIEL-CRO :

gotta be hax

Maybe he.meant trackmania?

Hopefully the same one i saw a couple of weeks ago shows at Cars and Coffee this weekend. Also someone is supposed to bring a new SRT Viper too! Can't wait to get a real glimpse at one.
