hey guys, i think there is a fairly simple solution which is probably most logical. I have not read all posts, only the first, and Joe's post.

Rule is straight forward - Top 15 in points make it through as LOCKED drivers. Banned drivers is still part of the championship, serving a ban. He is therefore 15th in the championship and "locked in". However, he will not take part in the event, and we will therefore expect the top 16 drivers from shootout to make it through...

Quote from Joe_Keaveney :

Anything up to #199 - take a look at the sign-up list to see what numbers are already taken, mate.

nfinity racer Daryn "Dizzy" Lobb races meets the Porsche Supercup champion Jeroen Bleekemolen at the final 2009 Shelby Can-Am round at the beautiful Kyalami track... all about it on our website!

For the hardcore nfinity eSports racing fans: don't forget to join our Facebook group with exclusive "Tukko at the Beach" snapshots (soon to be posted)

GC, the profile pics look alot more like you on da beach than Tukko...

haha, thanks guys... Jeroen is awesome. He raced in our series for the first time last year November, but unfortunately I was away from the series racing a Nissan 350z in production cars.

We then met up with him again at the A1 GP in South Africa earlier this year and he decided to come give our series another go in November this year, and to be honest, was pretty dominant in qualifying and heat 1.

A good friend of mine who also races with us in SA, Bertil Hofman (dutch man) brought Jeroen out again.

The best part was sending him to the airport after the Saturday night party, only to send him without his bag with passport and airtickets in (we were all quite drunk :-) )

And then racing back to the airport to give him his tickets at midnight

Hey all of you noobs talking sh!t... Go hack someone else's thread

From a race drivers perspective, i think lfs is great...

Quote from tinvek :

i see it's not a very friendly seperation then with brawn / mercedes saying button can't do anything with mclaren till january 1st and how they had hoped for loyalty, that he's being paid less at mclaren than they offered and that he'll have to improve to match hamilton.

when you list the points, it starts to sound like a toys out of prams rant, no doubt button will give his side of it soon in reply. i'm not a button fan but if he was being offered more at brawn / mercedes then there has to be a bloody good reason why he felt more comfortable at mclaren alongside hamilton.

if i was being cynical i'd say it's because he no longer has barichello to help with development / setup but i suspect it's something more substantial than that.

You joke... I heard an interesting story a few months ago from an EX Honda employee... a South African bloke actually (who grew up with my race engineer)... so you can do the maths (only south african of any sort of substance from BAR to Honda days).

the story went along the lines of "we let the drivers do their own thing on friday, then over night, we put Rubens setup on JB's car and off they go to qualifying....

Quote from scipy :

Not to rain on anyone's "look-I-got-a-new-car" thread.. but Jay has had the Scirocco since that german event where he won it.. by driving the LFS Scirocco.

Yeah Scipy... Just cause you fast and all that, doesnt mean you can come piss on my fire man LOL... kidding.

And Kevin, your Boerbul is ugly, they gay dogs and my Rottweilers snack on them as starters...

South Africa is a colony, we kicked england out tho, just as we did in the Rugby World Cup LOL... But yes, or no (cant remember the question), we are right hand drive. But I like variety, so I drive on the Left hand side in LFS... Because its not as dangerous as doing it in real life As I find out while testing a Ferrari 430 Challenge at Kyalami Race Track a few months back... never driven a left hand drive on a race track before... hehe

This is the difference between a quality driver like schumacher (none fans, hear me out first). He joined a team, and then built it around him, untill he was blatently dominant.

Button had the opportunity to build braw (MB) around him as his own team. Now instead, he has moved to Hamiltons team. And quite honestly, he is good, but not anywhere close to hamiltons league (this coming from a none hamilton fan)... What does he know, that we dont?

Thanks man....

Added new pics to the opening post. they better pictures. and there's one of an elephant

haha... teachers in south african dont even earn enough to ride a donkey to school...

Lol... you guys crack me up with all your africa stories... I'll sneak a photo of an elephant into my opening post... Then you'll see what its all about!

I got the 147Kw version. The 155Kw version have apparently been postponed due to problems with the radio functionality (whatever). 147 is good enough tho. We got so many cops on our roads of late... At they bringing in a demerit system for our licenses...

One of my good friends racing a Golf 5 in our local production car series (VW SA has not released golf 6 for racing yet) and they got some seriously clever stuff that will boost power very quickly... but its good enough at 147 atm.

Quote from sgt-KiLL :

Nice car, I only hope your not a white farmer or else the africans will have that off you in a second, not to mention the shamboks you'll recieve...
I guess you've got an ak47 to protect yourself tho, so you should be alright.

Haha... nah, I just got 2 Rottweilers! Aint no person moving em off their farm!

Quote from alliennas :

Congratulations, nice car IDD But please don't tell me that you bought that car, because LFS will have it

Haha... I wanted to see which would arrive first

Just Kidding, to me, it is one of the best looking cars on the road in South Africa atm. They are bringing in a very limited number and I wanted one from the day it was launched!

This car was built for racing :-) it even has a wing LOL

I pondered for quite a while about where to put this thread... but then I decided that I'm so excited about my new purchase, that I might as well share it in the same place that it "PC World" sibling is from...

So, yesturday I took delivery of my VERY OWN REAL LIFE Scirocco. I bought the 2.0l TSI (Manual) version in white. I initially ordered it with PDC, Dyna Sound, Panaramic Roof and Xenon lights. Unfortunately, with that spec, I was told to wait untill May 2010 (See, LFS isnt that bad!!).

So I decided to drop the extra's in exchange for early delivery. Early delivery also meant 147Kw.... but who cares. Its plenty quick enough!!!

P.S. Please forgive the piss poor photography... But I cant help just cruising the roads in this thing of beauty... So I got home very late.... And only had my silly Samsung Omnia to take photos with. Will replace them with day light photos shortly!

Congrats guys! that is awesome going!!!

damn, placed my order on amazon but they outta stock... Where else can I buy this headset from in the uk that is reputtable?

Quote from jimaxx :

If your going to get the Fatal1ty id suggest getting the USB one if possible if your using an built in soundcard, when Ive listened to the two I much prefered the usb one to the jack one UNLESS plugged into a decent sound card, but after getting a Xonar d2x I went for the Jacked suround sound option so I cant help you there : /.

When you say the usb one, you mean the Creative HS-1000 Creative Fatal1ty USB X Fi Gaming Headset? I cant find info on the normal fatal1ty with usb, seems it only comes with 2 jacks?

Is it worth the extra money going for the X fi?

seems as though im waiting for stock, i thought id update...

gamecom 377
Creative HS Fatal1ty Gaming Headset
Sandberg USB Headset

The last 2 are a touch more expensive, but kinda still in my price range... The sandberg seems to be the better??
