I recall him saying in an interview somewhere that he "knew" the tyres were bollocksed, and that it was unfortuate that he hadn't slowed down more....
Not that it matters who said what, I still think it was his fault. He was coming into the pits for new tyres, obviously he knew the ones he were on were completely wrecked, and surely his race engineer would have said that his tyres were down to the canvas, it was clearly visible to his race engineer, as we saw it, and they see the same television feed as we do.

Common sense should have told him that if he can see the white canvas of the tire, that he needs to slow down more than if the tire was in good condition. I don't race F1, but isnt it kind of obvious?
In my opinion, if they were to ban mid race refueling, they would probably make a regulation saying that the cars fuel tank has to be big enough to last for a full race distance (which may be altered).

The thread posted a year ago mentioning the accident.
Glad to see you back (although i have never actually played with you).

I prefered it without Steve, but didnt particularly enjoy having Martin, he isnt used to / very good at the bit at the start. It seemed very empty, in my opinion.
TBH Ted would have been a better choice since he has proven he can do it from doing BTCC.

I dont know much about bikes, but maybe the fuel is just at the level where the movement of the bike, is enough to slosh the fuel making it "think" it is below the level, and it corrects itself after a few seconds.
Just a theory.
[edit]
And oh, it should stay on [im pretty sure, but as a non bike person, i might be wrong, but it doesnt make sense if it "turns off" imo]. Every bike my cousin has (and he has lots), the fuel warning light stays on.
Mines ok now.
Only seems to work in IE, FF gives low speed reading in WMP.
I get:
5000kb/s in IE
32kb/s in FF.
:s
Weird.

Same here Becky, but I dont think we missed it, thread is only 19 minutes old.
Not quite aberdeen here, but if i say the name of the village i live in no-one will have a clue where.
Nearer ellon than aberdeen.
If he keeps it for the 5 year, then he is making £526.85 (if fuel prices stay similar distance apart).
So he might make the money back...
My parents bought their car in Aberdeen, and the difference between the petrol and diesel car was only £250.99.

Say the Petrol car does 40mpg, and the diesel does 55mpg. [Using local Fuel prices] (Going by if he drives exactly 5000 miles per year)
Petrol car = 5000/40 = 125 gallons of fuel used... (or 473.18 litres)
473.2 * 116.8 = £552.70 per year.
Diesel car = 5000/55 = 90.9 gallons of fuel used...(or 344.1 litres)
344.1*130 = £447.33 per year.
Someone will probably correct me, but im guessing diesel.

This thread has a topic?
Anyway, it is good news that we are getting some licenced cars, but im not going to be sitting in this seat till it comes.
This loudness war thing is kinda crap. They add extra loudness to each album to make it sound superior than the last.
Superiorly crap i guess....

What happens in the event no cars finish? I would think half points, in order of who failed last....
Not that i want that to happen. I dont, i just wondered.

No. Its good to have the option, of getting £12, then learning the new tracks and cars, then when you have another £12 getting the rest.
Although £24 isnt really a huge amount, there are still people who struggle to save that amount up in one go (be it life situation, money burning holes in pockets etc).

Reason : Missed a word which may have made my post look like a flame, its not.
Its to try and give the drivers an incentive to stay on the track.
Weather Forecast : Scattered Thunderstorms.
60% chance of rain.

Still 6 days to go, so this is probably not very accurate.

They arent competing this year
They were on the entry list, but they arent anymore.
Don't want to cause an argument or anything. English is not all Canadians first language.
It shouldn't matter whether or not a member is poor speaking or not anyway. Its an international forum, and shouldnt require all members to have perfect english.
Im not saying this is a great threat, it isnt.
Edit:
And to answer the OP's question. Food.
Spanks, try increasing the steering sensitivity to full, I am using 900 Degrees, but only really need that amount of lock at slow speed, coming out of the garages. I barely go beyond 180 Degrees in either direction (total of 360 degrees).
And make sure Speed Sensitivity Compensation or whatever that shite is, is set to 0.

Reminds me of my friend, who once "Hacked" into my computer, and saw my "My Documents".
Unfortunately at the time he said he did it.
A) My PC Was off.
B) My PC was on the floor, with no hard drive in it, whilst i put a new one in.
C) His computer isnt connected to the internet / network.
D) He is not computer aware at all.

Best thing would be to ;
A) ignore it,
B) Tell him that Quad core doesnt have anything to do with laptops, and that 5 graphics cards is stupendously not believable.

C) Give him a PC guide.

It appears he still drives like he is in a kart. Sliding the car to help slow it down [at least, this is how I drive a kart]. Im not saying he is a bad driver, he obviously is not, but his technique, is, lets say, unusual. How can he be surprised that his tyres get really worn.
Don't want to rain on your parade, but the delayed radio transmissions meant that the radio transmission was played at a rather "inappropriate" moment during replays.
