Quote from Bob Smith :

I've got 3x Compaq P1210 22" CRTs, all from ebay, cost £100, £65 and £40 respectively. Looking to get another as the £40 one is a bit knacked (red tint to the darker colours and blurred text - the guy got bad feedback) but the other two have been fine. In fact the best of three is exceptional, I can't fault it, best CRT I've ever used. Not surprising since they were £750 new. Runs at 2048x1536@75Hz, or 1600x1200@85Hz (of course there are a few other resolutions inbetween too).

As I said, I'm looking to get another one but atm there are only 2 on ebay, both from a seller I've already used and didn't think much of (he dropped the monitor off personally, a bit cheeky considering £26 delivery I paid, and even asked for good feedback even though he was 6 weeks late with the delivery!...) so I'm not using him again.

But if you've the space that's one of the best CRTs you can find. The trouble is people don't realise how good the image is supposed to look (perhaps being used to crap CRTs) so when they say the image is fine it could mean anything.

Anyway, that's all my personal experience extends to, hope that helps.

iv just done a search on ebay for those monitors and iv found the bloke your on about... from bolton.. but he dont claim they do the sort of resolution as you say.. he says they as 1920 x 1440 / 80 Hz max, but what im really wanting too know as 3 of these would be hell of alot cheaper than buying a tft. is how you get 3 monitors too run on your gfx card.. i only have the 2 ports... 1 a normal monitor port and the other that dvi port... were you plug in the other one...

best of bonkers album :rockon:

Quote from Speedier :

Very nice idea! I am happy to see such a thoughtfully dad who organizes events like this, only if I had kids.
How about our wifes "have a go"

Cheers!

funny you should say that, iv caught the missus many a times having a sneaky go LOL

Quote from sinbad :

Going back is dangerous. I've always taken the one-move rule to mean that you can make one defensive move, and reassume the line once you arrive at the corner, assuming you are still entitled to do so, i.e you are still "ahead".

If someone is drafting up behind you, you cannot move to the right to defend the inside and then force him to brake by moving back to the left as he attempts to go to the outside of you. That's a block in my opinion. Even more dangerous when people do it in the braking zone.

If you elect to defend the inside line then you really should make sure there's room for a car on the outside as you hit the brakes, just common sense (imho).

thanks that is what i was on about, but with my lack of education i couldnt get the point across right

Can be, up to a point. Frequently called the Schumi Chop - just inside FIA regulations.

As for REPEATED weaving, no this isn't allowed. But if he does, make him weave so much he unsettles the car and spins, or loses speed, and then outdrag him. Use his noobiness to our advantage!

i have started too do that. spec near corners so he slides right off track LOL still annoying spec when your on a good lap

i looked about on the forum mate, and i couldnt find awt thats why i made a thread about it...... but cheers for that bit of info

Quote from Kaizaka :

Under Blue flag he should allow the faster driver to pass.. The way you're saying it though is making it sound more like he's just racing his line whilst you race yours and a small knocks happening.

sorry i should have made it more clear, say at begining of a race when lights go green, i set off he sets off,but if he get s a better start he will come over too my side just soo i cant get past, that cant be legal..

guess he was right in a way, but he aint allowed to keep swerving into my path on the striaght when i try and get past.....

psu does have a big part in the stability of your system, but more than likely its a cpu related issuse, specially if you have overclocked....

was racing a friend who's been playing less than me, and he called me a cheat cause i made contact with him and knocked him off track, even though he was doing his best too block me.. i didnt hit him on perpose but as i shimmied from left too right he blocked me causing me too connect with him and either one of us comming off the track... i told him he cant bloke, he says he can... i said if blue flag pops up you have too give way.. he keeps saying blue flags aint popping up, even though im alot faster than him....


so can he block or am i right??

oh hell yes, even though the pedals aint touch sensitive, its either full gas or full braking LOL but still better

Quote from Alkanphel :

Lol, 7 months old and u want him to race XD heehee.
Be careful, he might drool on ur G25 or try to bite it

i aint lucky enough to have a g25, i only got this cheap little "globe" piece of rubbish, but he does like chewing it, or trying too pull it off table :LOL:

dude that is a fantastic idea, my little boys only 7 months old but start them young is what i say LOL we will be there

Quote from Linsen :

And I've seen probably three times as many on this forum in the last week alone who just got S2 licensed after playing the demo for a while (let alone the ones I have not actually seen on this forum). Plus about three cases where demo users were accused of being crackers when in fact they weren't as it turned out later.

.

me for one, started playing in december bought s2 in jan, also talked 2 of my mates into buying s2 they have played it less than me.. they not registered on the forum though..
