Lambos are ok looking. I like muscle over them though. Like always lol

Yes agreed. I like newer Lambos. Muscled win by a long shot, and they sound mean, where Lambos sound like they have the potential to be mean but have restrained themselves.

I don't know I'm weird...

Anyways I love the its storming like a mofo here and there's thunder, lightining, and the sky is a variety of colors.

Lamborghini's are ugly. ;) I saw the Porsche Penske RS Spyder that won the 2006 12 Hours of Sebring. I win. :D

I've rode in a ferrari 458 italia, lamborghini gallardo, and a 1986 chevrolet corvette. I win!

No. You rode in a lambo so you lose. :lol: and if there's one lambo that is OK, then it will be the Miura.
 
The start of the new F1 season is a major gear oiler.

The start of a fresh motorsport season in general is a major gear oiler. F1, MotoGP, V8 Supercars, WTCC, WSB, i've even pre-ordered my tickets for the Castle Combe season opener! Bring it on, may the best man win!

Made me think of Pulp Fiction.
You should've thought of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. ;)
Anyway, a song is oiling my gears massively right now. Impossible Dream by Andy Williams. It's epic!

Yes, it's that time of year again. 👍

I knew it was from that, but Pulp Fiction is my favourite film, and the name Marvin reminds me of a particularly classic scene.
 
Sports soft is a big no-no. And welcome to October of last year. :)

I'm aware that cockpit view was added ages ago, what i'm saying is it's the first time I have driven it since the feature was added.

Also what's wrong with Sports Soft tyres?

Ah, I see. :)

In my opinion, tire upgrades cheaply cover-up any sort of bad handling. Race a 458 on stock tires against a Camaro on Racing Softs, and you'll see what I mean. 👍
 
I agree with you there, I normally run my cars stock now including stock tyres, but I figured if I owned a caterham I would fit the stickiest tyres I could on it so as to exploit its great chassis.

I try to make the cars ad realistic as possible, so only lightly tune cars such as evos ect, but not supercars.

Wait, by realistic, do you mean if they're tuned? There's nothing wrong with tuning supercars. (unless it's a Zonda) In real life there's 1,000 HP twin-turbo Mucielagos. Nothing wrong with an 800 HP one in-game.

Look, I can also make a claim on the internet and say its true! I have ridden in a space shuttle before.

You can believe what you want but just because its on the internet doesn't mean that its automatically wrong. But I'm not trying to say just because its on the internet its right either. Also there really isn't a point to posting false statements on the internet so your last statement was un- called for. Unless you actually rid in a space shuttle before...

I reckon tuning supercars in reality is as wrong as murder. Because tuning any car makes it lose all of its character.
 
That I had an amazing night and it was warm. Two of my friends were with me and we had a great time, and it's 70°f out when normally its 40 around this time of year!

Also, I get to watch drum lines tomorrow, but it's hosted at my school so I have to volunteer. But I'll think positive because drum lines are AWESOME.
 
The fact that it's only 30 minutes until the qualifying. Though I can't watch it live 'cos my dad doesn't want to get up to turn off the alarm, so I've recorded it.
