Nah camera man heard it was my car and didn't bother turning up - doesn't want to die of old age or anything, as for everyone else, they went home they were that bored. If you manage to see them you'll notice all the cars are gone
they worked on my pc, but they ain't working on my iPod... no idea why though. That would be great - you'll have everyones races interlinking at certain points too

I suppose the cameraman buggered off to take pictures of the wedding! If I hear anything else about it in the next 50years, I swear it will be too soon! I feel sorry for our TV in the living room, its been subjected to the sodding wedding all bleeding day!!
I frankly, have no interest in the whole saga, and as such, spent the day on the net, and of course, on GT
Just unlocked Level 35, meaning a 24hour Le Mans race is on the cards Might use my Ford GT40 Race car (gulf coloured one)I must also sort out my photoshoot for the DB Motorsport cars, I have a few specced up, just to shoot them now
Maybe tomorrow......

Just been browsing the net about PSN, word on the net on some sites, is that it will be making its return this weekend.... And there will be a big firmware patch next month..... Fingers crossed this is indeed true, and we may well be able to start our racing series

Everyone in this comp, with a decent PC and wheel, should buy this for practice, I will in a few days xD
http://www.raceroom.net/games/stcc-the-game-2/
I have GTR-Evo with Race07, so STCC 2 will top the bundle off xD
Scandinavian touring cars ftw !
Always a fan of simbin and their work, GTR3 will feature their new unique in-house game engine "Lizard"
They say due to how they made it, it can be used on FPS games lol !!
Would love to see how simbin make a FPS.
Looks awesome graphics wise, for a PC Sim...
Anyone with Race07 should look at getting all the free-updates as well. Forumula Race Room for one, a completely free F1 style game addon lol.
My fave thing about GTR-Evo was the Carrera Cup mod, so much fun, or GT1 @ Nurb, unlimited practise time limit, so was a track day, go backwards through pits to get your out-lap timed (cross the start line this way). Always end up back on GT5 though, always.

Looks like a decent game MY PC aint up to that though lol And I don't have a wheel.... yet......
I wish cars in GT5 could tripd when you take a corner as hard and as quick as we do, it would add so so much to the realism of the suspension setup in the game!!

I can't get steam to work, So I'm using the really quite good offline AI as opponents (GTR-Evolution)
WTCC it is, only a few cars, <290bhp @ 1140kg's regs
Really really close,
Will upload a 6min vid of my second race, Ai was on 90% so I was a bit quick, will try 100% in a bit

You don't understand how much fun I just had on GTR-Evo lol
Just started the official WTCC season on it (offline) and its set to 100% LMAO
SO HARD !! I didn't even know the track !
30 mins practice, hitting 1.30's, back to garage to go out for practice 2... looked at timings... all doing <1.26's
Ahh whatever, skip that and go straight to qualy, got one 1.24.2, ended up 19th lol
Relatively massive pile up on turn one... escaped unharmed !! XD XD XD
*Accord Euro R flies past left hand window backwards into everyone infront*
Last corner I hear "Second yellow flag no overtaking"
*looks further up track, almost whole road blocked by a seat and BMW*
Needed a nappy I tell you, I tried but failed, wheels locked and got caught on the right front..
I hear "You have suspension damage"
I laugh it off, on I go.
Then I build a small gap after turn one with the cars behind, car feels better :s
Wide round some long right hander, enters left hander.
Seat again, caught my left rear
"You have suspension damage"
Return of the, "turn to go straight" :@
Finished the 8 laps of epicness in 13th (OUT OF 24 or 25) place, was ameeeezin.
Race #2 was ace, bottled it on last lap, got all hairy and ended up going off on last corner, 19th I finished.
Joint 10th in championship after round 1 !!
100% difficulty ftw.
Chevrolet Lacetti ftw (2007 WTCC season version)
I'm better at sim racing than I am on GT5 lol
Had more practice on GTR-Evo though I think.
Jimmy, go on "steam" the most awful thing known to man.... And I'm sure there is a demo of GTR-evo, it isn't WTCC, its GT2 racing, you do get brands though.
There is a demo of STCC apparently, find that... "free"
It's dirt cheap anyway, I picked up the Race07 and GTR-Evo bundle for £9 lol. Graphics in car seem great, graphics when looking out and on replay are minging. Immersion of it all though is 100% ! And there are plenty of things to turn off to save frames

Hmm Next season? bit late to change regs as people have got there tunes set up

I'm swaying that way for one reason...
Tire wear on FF cars will be a lot worse than FR, at 355bhp just over 1000kg's
At <290 and @ 1140kg's you get a bit of wheel spin, nothing major .
Also, you are right Jimmy, it's far past the changing regs point. Maybe next time yeah, maybe we will have a lovely patch with some BTCC wonderfulness by then xD .
*/steam still not working/*
But on the browser I'm on it... Jimmy how would I search for you, I don't know about steam to be frank
*/Got it working/*
Steam does NOT like Advanced System Care.
Have to re-download Race07 and GTR-Evolution :@
On the plus side my internet speed has gone up by 30% in the last few weeks
lol found Race07 even cheaper than I thought... http://www.raceroom.net/shop/item/10/race-07/
