...?

4 classes means 2 more with a top podium spot. IMO its easier to find sponsors if the chance to appear somewhere as the top car in class is higher (pretty sure there is more thought behind the 4 class system, but this just came to my mind)

Quote from Rappa Z :

Ferrari says they would consider a LMP1 campaign using a derivative of their turbo V6 F1 engine.

Audi, Porsche, Nissan, Ferrari .. would be nice

Don't get your discussion here. I didn't vote for RUF, but only because I'd like a wide porfolio of different layouts, not just R/R layouts and maybe a M/R (no need for the RUF Cayenne :razz

Voted Alfa, with Toyota on a cose second. MR2, Supra, GT86, AE86, WRC Corolla and so on

'80s Germany and Australia right next to it? Nice!

Quote from Kristi :

Those few sentences are what really caught my attention. Having my LFS history drawing back to the past far from now, way before my registering date. I still remember the developers caring about the community to a certain point and listening to feedback, thus involving every small, but important part of the community into the development. Those few sentences totally blew that illusion up in me, that I've built up in the past few years.

Well Scawen has long ago passed the point where a Passion became a Duty

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

Vettel with a worryingly German look in his eyes.

german? his eyes remind me of this:

OT: "Vettel took his sponsoring deal with Dr.Best a little too serious"

First the dead of Sean Edwards, now this ... Porsches public relations can't be happy atm

The Perfect Mess

Walker owned that Skyline he drove in the second film and competed in the Redline Time Attack series in a M3. Can't say much about his acting career outside of F&F

sad to see this happen now, wonder what they'll do with the F&F series from now on.

Quote from BigPeBe :

lol. That's gonna hold some mad pressure.

guess what, it kept popping off, 3000 rpm (via eddy current brake) and 70% throttle was the maximum we could run during that lab

edit: duct tape is nice, but not for pipes that get to hot to touch

Quote from Sueycide_FD :

That or a old c230 kompressor. Start small and work your way up to a e36m3 or e46 330ci.

C230 Kompressor and "start small" in the same sentence. Sorry but thats so 'murican (That Benz is a typical 'doctors-wife' car here. Normal first cars for young drivers rarely have more than 1.6 litres and/or 100 hp)

Quote from Jakg :

In the interests of fairness our cars and car-related-taxes are very cheap compared to similar European countries so we really can't complain that much.

plus no TÜV (MOT is a joke compared to it :razz and iirc your driving schools are very cheap compared to ours.

nah, I like self-scanned Hägar avatars

Quote from KiRmelius :

Don't think much about your first car as you're going to crash it anyway.

My first car is still going strong after six years, do I still have to?

But regarding the crazy insurance situation in the UK, look up all kinds of cars. Maybe you find some oddball car you can finance. Keep away from the hot-hatches, they're expensive to insure for a reason

MG B GT tubeframe build with that Jaguar V12, velocity stacks will poke trough the bonnet according to the builder (on Retro Rides. I love reading through build threads :shy

the passing car was a GT300 FTO, so the performance gap won't be that big.

I recognize that track from the Top Gear episode with the lads testing the RS4, M3 and C-Class AMG

Quote from FireMike15 :

Oettinger in bavaria, you're FFS serious?
Drank few of them in a row last year and after that I couldn't even breathe, that much I was vomiting. ^^

people discussed this on the site I linked that pic from. They based this pic on sales numbers, and apparently lots of cheap discounter beers (even cheaper than Oettinger itself :X) come from the oettinger brewery and pushed them up
