Corypedia could use the monkey as a Fact Checker, Vet all the information in Corypedia

For those interested in F1 2019, it’s on sale again in the PS Store. If you missed it in March, it’s 18 bucks until May 13, 2020. Thanks for the heads up Gary!

It’d be cool to get some Geezer F1 leagues up and running.

 

[GTsail]

Over the last ten days, I've put in over 900 miles in an effort to beat Hamilton's Diamond time at Mt Panorama.
This morning, I just ran a 2:01.571 lap which is within a tenth of a second of Hamilton's time:

So close!!! Arrrggg!
I don't know if I can find the last tenth, but I'm going to try!
Currently, I'm running the Mercedes with BB=0 thru the first corner, and then switching to BB+1 for the middle of the lap, and then switching back to BB=0 for the last two corners. No TC, and I'm using the manual gearbox.
Good luck!

Recent pictures of me when I wasn't running laps at Mt Panorama:

Cruising along, but heading back to the beach:

Slowing down since I'm about to run up on the beach:

Blasting away since the wind freshened a little (I'm on the left):

The above pictures are from March and I was using my 7 meter sail and my 6.5 meter sail since the wind varied from about 14 mph to 18 mph.
Cheers!

Corypedia will shoot the **** out of everything.

Look it up, it’s on Corypedia, so it’s correct.

More pictures of me from March:

Cruising along but contemplating whether to gybe or not:
The sign in the near background is a manatee sign to warn boaters to slow down and make minimum wake.
I was only obeying one of these instructions.

Still cruising, but I've decided to come back to the beach for a rest and some water:

Slowing down since I'm about to run up onto the beach:

In all of the above pictures I'm sailing with my 6.5 meter sail. The wind is about 15 - 18 mph.
The wind on this day was just great so I was probably on the water for 2 hours.
Great fun!

 

[GTsail]

More pictures of me from a day with more wind:

Blasting along, but not at full speed due to the chop:

I'm on the right, and I'm probably fully lit in this picture:
The wife of the second windsurfer was taking the pictures.

In both of these pictures I'm sailing with my 6.0 meter sail. The wind was about 18 - 22 mph.
I'm probably sailing at about 25mph in the second picture.
Great fun!

Ford Zodiac

Ford Zodiac

Had the v4 version of this years ago then blew the engine up at Bodmin one night. Replaced it with a v6 3.0 litre, made it a faster car but it could drink petrol like it was going out of fashion.

I was thinking about the Zodiac I owned many years ago and thought I would share some pics of other cars I have owned over the years. I managed to find pics with the same colour. The Lada was my first owned car and cost me £35. I was 16 years old. My current car is the last one and I have owned it for 7 years and is the best driving car of the lot, although I have had lots of fun in some of the others. The Capri had a stage 2 fully raced tuned engine in it. I had to keep a couple of bags of cement in the boot!

Henry Repeating Arms single.

Henry developed the lever action for Winchester in 1860. Killed a lot of Indians. Changed the United States.

Red Ryder BB next to it. A toy in comparison.

 

[GaryCorvette]

Final****ingly got all my Golds in the Lewis Hamilton Challenge did the last four since last Tuesday lol

 

[coryclifford]

I pooped a tree trunk, twice.

Finally! 9 or 10 days later!

 

[GTsail]

Still working on the Diamond at Mt Panorama, and haven't gotten any closer after another 350 miles.

I'm certainly learning the track so on my good laps I'm now able to run 2:01.7xx laps as you can see by all my recent replays:

I just ran a 2:01.585 which nearly tied my best, but Hamilton is still driving a tenth faster than me!

Must find more speed!!!

For those of you who like to have the name of the Gran Turismo Tracks in alphabetical order, I have them in an Excel file that I have attached. Hope you can open and use it.

You wish. He’ll complain about the balloons not being in the right spot. And we might have to increase to 7 laps. Votes??
