I play most days for a while, well now i have my wheel and pedals set up again i do, mainly offline tho, as this 3g dongle thing is so bad i wouldnt even try to race online with it tbh, i still go to some servers if there is a meeting on (and enough space) and i just spec and watch it, thats if i can even stay in the server long enough to even see half a race before i time out.
a new (well, 2nd hand) power unit for my retro 1980s fruit machine, i am determined to get this thing up and running properly again this year!

Legendary gills!
Dont let that stop you, get uploading!
Because its not fair on people who would like to view the thread, the picture thread as its called.
Im sure people are quite happy to view pictures, but what is f**king annoying, is waiting for xxx amount of shitty gifs that are about 10 minutes long to load up, how can something of such low grainy crappy colour distorted quality be so large, all you get whilst looking at them is a slideshow of jumpy low quality pics that often freeze one after the other, plus they are hardly ever funny anyway.
It really is the ultimate pisstake to take that attitude of "it isnt our fault that others have slow internet" is just very narrow minded selfish and out of order, why should we all have our internet raped just because someone has to post over 9000 shit gifs?
Im not on dial up, im on 3g, which is usually running at about 2meg, but over the last few weeks its been so so SO slow, it literally will NOT go at any decent speed for any amount of time, it might run at 1.8 - 2.2 meg for a few seconds, then its all sub 100kbps, if not worse, sometimes it sits at 11, yes ELEVEN kbps, thats totally rubbish, and pages with loads of gifs on literally never load.

Thats essentially a wider version of an autograss special by the looks of things, presuming the engine will go in the back of course.
Kirsty hardly ever whinged or whined or got in a mood about anything, and if she did it was on the very rare occasion and she had a very good reason, all in all i had it quite good i suppose, guess it werent meant to be, live goes on eh.
Some more silliness from the up and coming (and now signed!) melodic rock band, The First, on tour, together with two other bands, Blessed By A Broken Heart, and LoveHateHero.

I dont think there is really anything like a differential on these, well there hardly ever used to be anyway, all they used to be was pretty much the same as a bloody great oversized go kart rear axle, solid axle from wheel to wheel usually made using a pair of shafts from a FWD car (they used to use front hubs on the back of these so it was possible) and seam welding them together to make it one solid shaft, and driven by a very short chain directly from the bike gearbox, a lot of them have the rear brake disk mounted in up somehere near where the sprocket is to keep it cool.

What he said, jeez, why dont people just read!!! :banghead:
IBTL obviously.
Any progress on this yet mr 500?
Sorry to take the convo back a few posts, but im gonna do it anyway! 
For me, social background, class, upbringing etc, means precisely f--k all to me TBH, all thats important to me is that we have a mutual attraction and the girl is a nice girl, nice to be around, to spend time with, someone i can talk to, tell anything to, and just generally get on with, looks arent a major point for me, obviously if she's 400lbs with a more impressive beard than i can grow then no, but looks do play a part, i dont tend to go for smokin hot girls tho, i go for cute ones, there is a difference.
What i HATE, is those girls who are hot but act like an idiot because she knows how hot she is and plays on it, loves the attention, or is either a total airhead with no brain at all, all show and no go as i like to say, or has a nasty personality in general despite being a stunner, ehh, no, not my thing.

Indeed, class 10 is unlimited, so as you say, twin hayabusa bike engines are not unheard of, i have also seen (and heard!) chevy v8 powered 10's over the years as well, but we are leaving out class 9 i think here
same thing esentially, class 8s are limited to 1350cc, 9s are from 1350cc to 2055cc and 10s are as already mentioned, unlimited, but for me, 8s are more fun to watch, nice and competitive, my favourite saloon classes are class 3, class 6, and class 7 tho, excellent fun, class 7 fiat seicentos with twin bike engines in the boot are always fun to watch!I used to love class 2, (im showing my age now...) but then they started letting bloody FWD cars into class 2, novas, psshhhh, but RWD escorts and toyota starlets started getting harder to get hold of so something had to change, similiar to whats happened to class 1 as well, used to be 998cc minis only, but now some other tiny fwd cars are allowed (cant remember what, small fiats and pug 106, maybe fiestas too?) because the minis are nearly all gone.
If it was me i would just look about for something like i have, it aint by any means the best PC in the world for gaming, far from it, but it will cope with most games i like playing with a pleasing amount of graphical detail while remaining playable, and it will be a lot better than your current machine is.
This PC cost me £35 as it was, and all i added was another 512mb of RAM which i already had, and the GFX card, which i kept from my old machine.
Its not great, but it does the job reasonably well, i still suffer from the t1 drops with LFS if its a busy track, but thats life i guess.
I have a pentium 4, 2.53ghz processor on a medion socket478 motherboard (so you may be able to get a p4 @3.2ghz if you can find one) 1gb RAM, and the same GFX card as you have already got (if it isnt cooked)
It is probably not the most economical way of doing it, as this stuff is still outdated technology nowadays, so for money spent, a new or nearly new PC will be better and more upto daye, and also a lot faster, but if youre on a tight budget and only want to spend a few bucks whilst having something thats reasonably playable, this may well be the way to go.

Yah, thats a baby processor there, i can be 99% sure that this is whats causing your performance drops, CPU just cant work hard enough.
On your desktop, right click my computer and select properties, or the longer way to get to it, start>settings>control panel>system and tell us what that bit says, or even better, post a screenshot of it, (making sure to blur out your product OEM info key) as i have below, just like this....
Will do, i found the old skool one made in VDJ, shortened it to about 8 mins, 3 choons, 2 mixes, my web is so slow anything big to upload just takes a silly amount of time, upload speed of about 15kbps if that, and yes i do mean kilabytes, not bits, it really is that bad!
I cant find the new skool hardcore one i did on VDJ on here tho, looks like ill have to do it again, oh well!
I can post some old skool mixes up i did recently if you like, i await the copyright police of course, but im sure it'll be fine!
For me, IE is total poo, if i ever accidently use it i keep getting some stack overflow error whatever the feck that means, FF is forever crashing on the odd time i have ever used it, regardless on weather i have got any plugins enabled or not, crash crash crash all the time, so for me there is only one winner, chrome.
I have been using it ever since it first came out and i really cannot fault it, its clean looking, easy to use, very fast, not a resource hog, plus on the very rare occasion anything becomes un responsive you only lose that one tab that went, because each new tab you create is a seperate process, and the only 2 or 3 crashes i have ever had were because flash had died, so not directly chromes fault.
