Hey MA5on welcome to TDUc.

Martijn, Martijn, Martijn, tut tut, bad joke :D, anyway welcome to the boards Chris.

"Excuse me, I asked for a large cappuccino, helllloooooo !!" (name the film) Good luck with this guys, watch out for the police remember, they will want a shot of your car. ;)

Welllll alrighty then just had a quick glance at April's stats for the forum and they read something like this: Hits: 2,003,768 Visits: 20,876 Pages: 455,876 Bandwidth: 10Gb Hmm ...interesting. :omg: Thank you all of you, now here's to May !!

Holy hell it looks like a Mosler MT900 (?) I think.

May has 31 days, it's never going to be right at the start, give them time.

4 days and counting, the countdown begins. :D Unfortunately not today due to my video host messing me around with some server config rubbish they said they couldn't do so I sent them the file myself and they will make the appropriate changes tomorrow ...well today if you're in the UK. I'm also going to be testing right up until the Thursday night for the release on Friday so that there's no unexpected annoyances once live !! Thanks to all who have patiently waited and I am really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really sorry it has taken so long but the wait is almost over ...for both of us !! lol A question: What would you prefer to type in your address bar? testdriveunlimitedcentral.com OR tdu-central.com (I will redirect the other domain to the main site anyway) Thanks.

We have received word from 'Ciel' who is the Assistant Community Manager at ataricommunity.com, that a TDU Contest will be run for the next few coming weeks in which free copies of the PS2, PSP and PC versions will be given away. Feel free to check it out at the link below and good luck should you enter and thanks to Ciel for informing us of this contest. http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums...d.php?t=583592 :D

Yeah I saw that just now cause I noticed the site was linked from there in the stats !! :D It's not shown on the site itself but maybe they're testing new content. Anyway it's free and as long as it sounds good it will be a welcome addition.

I sold most of my doubles last night, made $5m from it as well, I have some doubles still like the F1 LMs, one in black and one in stock colour as well as my 2 Zonda Roadsters. The Pink 1000 mile Saleen sold also for it's asking price of 100,000 and next I am going to sell all the low priced homes and keep the expensives. Navigating your cars when you have all houses is murder !

Updated the post above with a very good video, looks official and has the helo shots and some very nice camera car side by sides also.

Interesting colour choice on this GT3RS, is this custom or available from Porsche?

That's the one Pherelas, I think it was my 5th purchase in the game and I have had it ever since. I started driving it again about 2 weeks ago when it had 4900 miles on it. It's weird, it has 3x as many miles as my next vehicle which is the RUF Rt12 with 2000 but then I have done about 36,000 total and because I like variety most of my cars have between 500-1000 on them including the bikes !! Ninja is close to a 1000 now also. I just love the feeling of driving that bike in the riders view (one after helmet) with nothing on screen with some good tunes and the volume up. Diving in and out of traffic (be it with or against the traffic), pulling off wheelies etc is really part of the fun for me with this game.

Piece of history here and looks in amazing nick also.

Hey there fatburger, welcome to tducentral !

6060 miles on the old MV Augusta now. Nick that's the way it seems to work yeah, I get an offer a week for some of the cars in the video, $4m for the DB7 Zagato for example and the song used sent as an mp3. lol

Eeek I forgot about this, I'll see if I can get a quick vid up maybe today.

This may be what we have been waiting for, good video: Well this was done on the 28th April 2007 and wow the media coming out is sheer quality. Nick Heidfeld did 3 laps with the second lap being the fastest with a time of 8min 34secs. A top speed of 275km/h which was done on the long straight at the Döttinger Höhe. The car did really well considering that the BMW F1 car was only running demonstration tyres which have less grip than race tyres as well as no modifications to the car except for raising the height to it highest. Here are some images: http://www.motorsport-total.com/f1/bilder/cat.php?c=07bmwnordschleife Here some first movies, more to come in the coming days: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey2DfC2SISQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpUhZtJ22dQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T54LBpD6jd0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnekXjrj99A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sz2xE_h2KQYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VNGqto7EPg Note the helo following, maybe we'll get to see a high-quality full lap in the next few days! :) Another short video but slightly better quality: (recommend right-click > save as) http://freenet-homepage.de/turbo-astra/1/BMW1.mpg

Remember the Aston Martin testing by Phoenix Racing? Enjoy. Press Release: At an exclusive Aston Martin track day for V8 Vantage N24 customers held at the Nordschleife on 24 April, Aston Martin announced exciting plans for this year's ADAC 24-hour Nürburgring endurance race, to be held over 9 -10 June. Following last year's success with a near production standard V8 Vantage, the Aston Martin team will be returning to the gruelling German circuit with an added presence, forming one half of an epic week of endurance racing for the marque. Aston Martin Chief Executive Officer, Dr Ulrich Bez, said: "Aston Martin has always been associated with endurance racing and June will be a very exciting month starting with the Nürburgring 24-hour race followed by Le Mans a week later. "Our motorsport strategy has always been to get many Aston Martins competing in races all over the world and this week in June will see that plan further realised." Aston Martin will enter two N24 cars at the Nürburgring, which will be joined by a customer N24 team and a specially developed DBRS9, run by Phoenix Racing and Aston Martin Austria. Head of Product Communications and Motorsport, David King commented: "Achieving 24th position from 220 entrants with a near standard car at the Nürburgring last year was a great way to demonstrate the capabilities of the V8 Vantage. This year we are delighted to offer our customers the opportunity to join us in the race." Dirk Theimann, Team Manager Phoenix Racing said: "This race combines an electric atmosphere with probably the most demanding circuit in the world – there's nothing like it. The DBRS9 will add glamour and excitement for the spectators." The DBRS9 will feature a vastly experienced driver line-up comprising three times Le Mans winner Klaus Ludwig (Germany), Marcel Fässler (Switzerland), Robert Lechner (Austria) and Sascha Bert (Germany). Aston Martin's own N24 Vantage will once again be piloted by Dr Ulrich Bez, Chris Porritt (Aston Martin Vehicle Dynamics Manager), Wolfgang Schuhbauer (Aston Martin Development Engineer) and Horst von Saurma (Editor of Sport Auto) and this year will feature Aston Martin's new Sportshift transmission, which was launched as an option on V8 Vantage earlier this year. "Sportshift will lend itself perfectly to the driving conditions of the Nordschleife - with over 60 gear changes per lap – it will provide for faster shifts with less effort required by the driver," said Chris Porritt. The Vantage N24 is based on a standard European specification production V8 Vantage, with modifications undertaken to prepare the car for the competitive racing environment. The car is fastidiously hand built in a dedicated facility within Aston Martin's Gaydon headquarters. Prices start at £78,720 plus local taxes and delivery. The Aston Martin Racing DBRS9 is currently starring in the FIA GT3 series and several national GT championships. The DBRS9 is based on the DB9 road car, but shares many design features with the full GT1 specification DBR9. The DBRS9 starts at £175,000 plus options and taxes and is built to order at Aston Martin Racing's headquarters in Banbury, UK.

It is posted in the FAQ in the TDU - General section at the top. :)
