Quote from BlueFlame :If you didn't tune your gearbox up Chris, that is probobly WHY your punto wouldn't do 140, the stock gearbox only needs to go to 110 or so, because that's what the stock Engine is made for.

Then maybe you can explain how a Lotus Esprit is so much faster then an old 70's renault, Citroën SM and Maserati Merak even though they use identical gearboxes? Im sure the Citroen SM didn't have 5000rpm and a whole gear spare at is sub 100mph top speed!

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :The best part is the slicks will be coming in so that they can reduce the aero on the cars. No more little chimneys and wings on the top of the car, so in 2009 the cars should look pretty farking cool.

Chimneys will stil be there for cooling im sure. and the wings will too, just not so large and drastic (theyve had a wing/body flick on sidepods on F1 cars since the 80's)

Yeah not too good at all. all my drivers are scouted and trained up (and all 100%) does take a while, but its worth it for a garunteed good driver.

i seem to loose concentration if i concentrate, my concentration slowly fades, then i "wake up" as it were when i hear the LFSW beep or something else, realise im 10 laps further into the race and just set a pb, whilst looking out the window

Quote from The General Lee :No...You won't.

Me and my mate done 140mph for about 5 miles on an empty motorway last week in his POS Vauxhall Calibra....

Reason you probably got so fast (apart from the V6) is the low drag coeffienct those things have! its something like 0.21 (whatever its measured in! ill try and find a link to back up wotever it is im saying, as im not to sure what im going on about myself)

Quote from JTbo :I'm not too interested from graphics, I just would like to get steady 60fps in LFS with full grid and unfortainly my current machine is not enough.

I believe that I promised old system to mother so she can pay bills via internet and that promise I must keep

WinXP and windows classic theme, all visual eye candy turned off (like show window when dragging).

I have over 15 laptops with Vista so I have pretty good insight how that crap works (actually it does not)

Ill swap you for my current system :P she can have that.

Motion city soundtrack - its a bit weird sometimes (keyboard/synth player adds to the quirky music) but its pretty enjoyable, latest album is great!

Hundred reasons - rock band with quite a live sound to their recordings.

Alter bridge - singer with a 4 octave range........need i say more?

like dajmin said, its all about tapping. you can even drive the FO8 with keys ok if you know what your doing. (used to be easier pre-physics patch for some reason, everyone said the cars are easier now ) keep the sensitivity of the steering at 1.00 and put the return between 0.5 and 0.8 and the rest is just balancing things.
One thing i have found to work in ff cars on long corners where u need to keep speed.... say its a right hander just tap the steering and acceleration with your index and middle finger like they are legs running (bad description i know! i guess if you use the arrow keys like me it makes that idea much easier)

I have a fx5700LE and using the overclock settings in the nvidia menu (unlocked via the registry) i can get 350mhz GPU and 1.01ghz memory though not run it that high for long, usualy leave it at about 300-325mhz GPU and about 900mhz Memory clock.
