Quote from lizardfolk :

But actually the crash was a bit serious, it injured 8 people: http://www.nascar.com/2009/new ... adega.cedwards/index.html

Yeah, despite what the commentators said, I did see some debris flying into the crowd. Luckily the injuries aren't life threatening or anything - cuts, bruises, a broken jaw and some possible fractures. But the fact that the driver was fine was great, the cars seem to be extremely safe! Well, they have to be at those speeds really.

That was the first full NASCAR race I've watched live, and uh...I think I'm going to be waatching some more.

What a finish! The first thing that went through my mind was 'Shit, is Edwards okay?' Then I saw him moving, and the awesomeness of the last lap sunk in! Brilliant!

The wreck wasn't Brad's fault, and he was deserving of the win, well done to him. And Edwards skipping across the line just topped it off perfectly.

Now I've got to watch a few more races and learn the drivers, so I can have the added excitement (and misery) of supporting someone.

I'd give the race a 5-6/10, it wasn't that good, but I'm really happy that Button won!

Roll on Borecelona...

I might get banned for this....

*drools*

Im not even gonna bother mentioning the crap i had to go through in google to find a pic. Either way, it was worth it. That ass is gorgeous! What i would do to that....

Add 'page/13/' to the end of that link, and go to the second entry down...Sebastian?

I'm not into that kind of music, I don't really like drifting, but I loved that movie! Some things are just so well done it dosen't matter what genre they are in.

First video?! I don't believe it!

Really nice, admittedly a lot of it was the music, but I really liked it.

Lol, I turn on the stream and literally the first thing I see is a slow-mo of [whatever his name was] sliiiding to the infield at just under 200 mph and rolling a few times, before catching fire.

Well done Ragan, I don't know who you are but you seem like a good guy

The attachments don't even work...

:doh: Lol

Alternatively, you can download custom setups from these websites:

http://www.setupgrid.net/

http://setupfield.teaminferno.hu/

Save the files in LFS\data\setups and they should appear in game - to the right of the screen in your garage.

But I'd advise learning how to make your own, they will be better than those above.

Quote from S3ANPukekoh3 :

Hahaha I was thinking that but I didnt know what to write, and I just wanted to make it for a laugh

EDIT: Stole the other thread OP lol

HAHAHA how funny badly copying my post into your shitty thread...ask me first at least.

If this really is decided to be the 'official' thread, add the links back in, wrap [IMG] tags around my attatchments, bolden titles etc...and contact the mods to get the title bloody capitalised!

Sorry to rant, but...this has just really annoyed me. N I K I, this is not his work.

I don't think it really matters, as long as the op isn't crap. (Capitalised title, track map, track/time info) The problem is when - it doesn't matter imo as long as the thread doesn't get forgotten about and meets the above criteria. We don't want any arguments about how far from the race the thread is - say 1 week beforehand max?

This is getting silly now, really.

Well, it was mostly copypasta'd from other places, so it didn't take too long - you just need to know where to look I suppose. Still took a little while though - I wanted a nice Bahrain thread! (No offence Texas/S3AN :razz

Weather forecast and an onboard lap from 2006

Now this is more like it!

I was enjoying Jonathan's commentary on the final lap tbh.

Well done Vettel! Obviously I'd have prefered Button to win, but he certainly deserved this victory. What a driver!

Quote from rediske :

Because it wants a password...

Go Vettel go!

It takes a couple of seconds to register, and is a lot better, but it's your choice.

Sutil off. No SC though, which seems a bit strange, it's in a very dangerous location, surely?

Why not use this?

Massa stopped!

I think I'll shut up now!

Quote from tinvek :

ffs another 30 mins rain, why the hell didn't they delay the start an hour ?

Because I'm going karting as soon as the race is finished!

Everyone's running wide at the last corner

Hamilton slow suddenly! Been off the road?

EDIT: He spun.

Come on Button, get some good laps in while people are pitting!

Still think it's okay, but meh

Quote from trebor901 :

who was talking about them 2? someone always manages to bring them two up.

Are you flaming him because you don't agree with his opinion, (I assume you're a plato fan) or am I reading too much into it? Seems like a perfectly valid post to me, I now know what he thinks about those drivers, and Neal is mentioned 4 posts above his anyway. And Plato and Neal are certainly related! Mabye he's only just watched the race, and is saying what he thinks about the conduct of the drivers like countless others have done in this BTCC thread?

[/rant]

Probably gave you waaaay to much info there! Will it fit into your spreadsheet?

I think that means the diffusers are legal...they said they weren't releasing anything 'till this afternoon though.

EDIT: Yep, they are legal. Yes!
