  1. Yeah sorry Shadow, I scrolled down quick and saw KTF so thought it was him. And regarding the plate, well it had to be done! :D
  2. Very clean 240SX you got there Shadow! BTW the races in this game are hard on Hard and Hardest (makes sense) but check this win out I had early in on in the game, I use manual so was a bit slow in downshifting and the car took it's time to get upto speed and a car passed me so I slipped in behind him and managed to hit the speed boost just at the right time! :D
  3. It appears you need to race some muscle cars to progress a bit which is not a problem as they do sound very good in this game! Here's my Mustang.
  4. Ummm ok, nice uhh ramp. lol
  5. Lamborghini donates the new “Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia” to the Italian State Police -- OLD IMAGE REMOVED (imageshack) -- A private ceremony was held today at the Viminale Palace where Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. donated a police version of the company’s newest super sports car, Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia, to the head of the Italian State Police, Prefect Antonio Manganelli. The new Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia, which replaces the previous Gallardo in use by the Italian police force since 2004 has a 560 horsepower engine that can reach speeds of up to 203 mph. The car will begin service with the Lazio Highway Police Department in order to continue accident and crime prevention to sustain security on the Italian roads. Proof of outstanding reliability Its predecessor is proof of Lamborghini’s outstanding product quality. Since 2004, Rome’s police force has had the first-generation Gallardo in regular police service. The sports car has clocked nearly 87,000 miles of patrol duty on the motorways of central and southern Italy, as well as on emergency medical transport detail. A second Gallardo, painted in blue and white police colors, has been in service around Bologna, Italy since 2005. Its odometer already shows more than 62,000 miles. Aside from regular servicing, neither of the super sports cars has required major repairs. In addition to the clearly effective deterrent offered by the presence and visibility of a Lamborghini on the highway, the technological equipment on board these vehicles makes them highly effective in the control of hazardous behaviour on the roads (high speeds, driving in the emergency lane, dangerous over-taking); the automatic recognition of number plate tracking and real-time transmission of images to the control rooms. High-tech video system with real-time retrieval The cabin of the super sports car is fitted with the latest advancements in police technology to immediately document the evidence of any transgression. The video system is positioned in the center of the cabin with a camera fitted next to the rear view mirror and a computer and recording equipment behind the seats. As soon as police officers discover a suspicious driver, they activate the “Proof Video Data System.” With the help of GPS data, the device can calculate the location, direction of movement and speed of the Lamborghini. This combined with the distance and time before intercept, accurately determines the speed of the vehicle being pursued. Using radio data transmission, the video system in the Gallardo Polizia transfers its images in real time to the relevant police station. There, the videos are stored and used for automatic number plate retrieval. This information can be used for immediate identification of stolen vehicles. The “classic” array of police equipment on board too In addition to its high tech equipment, the Gallardo is also fitted with the “classic” array of police equipment, such as a gun holster, police radio equipment and the “Paletta,” the traditional hand-held stop sign used to advise motorists and traffic offenders to pull over. Officers can then use a removable screen to show offenders their misdeeds immediately, complete with an overlay of all the associated data. Rapid response in medical emergencies The Lamborghini is used regularly for urgent medical transportation too. The luggage compartment in the front of the vehicle is equipped with a specialized refrigeration system for safe transportation of donor organs. For extreme emergencies, there is also a defibrillator used to restore a normal heart rhythm to patients by delivering an electrical shock to the heart to stop massive cardiac arrhythmia or ventricular fibrillation, and thus save lives. Officer training The 30 police officers permitted to drive the Gallardo Polizia receive special training in the use of the Gallardo’s medical equipment. Each person on the special operations team – which includes three women – has undertaken several days of driver training with Lamborghini, under the leadership of the Lamborghini test drivers. The basis of trouble-free everyday operation is the exceptional safety of the Gallardo LP560-4 with its permanent all-wheel drive and its refined chassis, which maintains stability even at the highest speeds. Lamborghini’s extremely high standards for product quality and reliability ensure that the Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia is always ready for duty. Even the blue light is designed for speed Now the successor is ready – a new generation Gallardo LP560-4 with the very latest in special equipment. The Lamborghini wears its uniform with pride, painted in accordance with requirements in “blu Polizia” – whereby the white stripes and lettering follow the Gallardo’s dynamic design angles. Its main patrol beat will once again be central and southern Italy, primarily on the motorway between Salerno and Reggio Calabria. The police beacon on the roof of the Gallardo had to be aerodynamically optimized being that the new police car reaches a considerably higher top speed than regular service vehicles.. Despite the extremely flat construction of the signal lighting, blue LEDs are fitted round the base to ensure the visual signal cannot be missed. The roof-mounted lighting is supported by further blue LED signals on the front, sides and rear of the light’s aluminium shell. A total of four sirens integrated into the front and rear of the Gallardo generate unmistakable audible warning signals. On duty even in New York Just like its predecessor, the new Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia is destined to be not only the fastest, but also the most famous police car – even beyond Italian borders. The Italian State Police uniform, and the unquestionable attraction of the Lamborghini brand, continue to arouse curiosity and interest. Thousands of citizens have the possibility to see the car for themselves during the many events organized to promote the vehicles in use. Alongside its daily operational duties, the Gallardo also has regular public appearance obligations, such as its role as parade leader every year in Rome’s traditional “Festa di Polizia,” or its escort responsibilities at events with historical vehicles, like the Targa Florio and the Milan – San Remo Rally. Its predecessor even represented the Italian police in New York City at the 2005 “Columbus Day” parade.

  6. Here's my latest car that I won just! The races and opponents in this game are tough. Note the State of the Plate before you comment on what it says. :cheeky:
  7. The DS is a Goldmine for these things, that Brain Training thing cost £50k to make, it made a 100+ times that in sales!
  8. It's a good arcade racer with some fun gameplay but like most reviews say they difficulty in the harder races is exactly that but to be honest the police chases and police chatter are quite enjoyable as is driving the cars and bikes round LA watching out for the mass of traffic on the streets and when the day turns to night and the other customisation options it gives you, I have to say I'm glad I went for it.
  9. Very nice and white, the neon is a bit uhh I dunno but it looks good I have to say.
  10. Good stuff! I have seen a few people are playing this today so hopefully people can get their pics up and show off their uhh ..creations. :D
  11. Hey guys in here show off your rides! :D You will first need to register yourself to the Rockstar Social Club. Once you have done that take a pic in Photomode and then Save it and then Publish it. I'm just having a look around the site myself and it looks like there may be a few cool things you can check out regarding your friends as well as rating other peoples (kids!) monstrosities. To enter Photomode press Pause then use the Right-stick and move it and you should enter Photomode automatically. My first car the Golf GTi has done me well and I will keep it for a while more yet.
  12. Loads of cars? There's 44 + 3 bikes iirc.
  13. What's difficult about that? New Posts basically searches for all new posts since your last visit.
  14. Unfortunately the easy way I was thinking of implementing this is not possible in vBulletin because everything custom entered in the User CP only works in the areas where User details are shown. Damn it. Back to the drawing board.
  15. We need the Requests section as the forum would be overrun with spam if not however looking through the script that does the search I think I may have found a way for users to specify forums to exclude from the search. :D
  16. Cheers guys, thanks for the kind wishes!

  17. Thanks guys, I was out for a couple of hours today playing pool and having a couple of drinks. Can't really do anything tonight though as I got a hectic day tomorrow and tbh a lot of drinking was done on Friday and there's more planned for this coming Friday. :D Cheers! :cheers:
  18. Yeah I know shame they didn't, always the same when you want nothing when you don't everything! Great Job BC as always!!
  19. :D Anyone posts about the poll not being shown will be banned.
  20. Wahey! Now that's my kind of thing right their and the fact there is 3 Diablo's shows this man has complete class. That's me in 20 years! (I hope)
  21. If you guys want to create some icons and post them here then go ahead!
  22. I been planning on making icons instead of text for a wee while, just been busy and not got round to it yet. I'll get on it though!
  23. If anyone remembers the excitement about a Ghostbusters game that was shown about 1-2 years ago but unfortunately fell through after the Activision and Blizzard merger then rejoice again as according to none other than Dan Aykroyd, Atari has rescued the game from floating in limbo though it is still about a year away! Found more info on this at Kotaku. http://kotaku.com/5063454/dan-aykroyd-ghostbusters-picked-up-by-atari-still-a-year-away Now Atari just let these guys do their thing, do not jump in and spoil what is looking like a GREAT thing! Who you gonna call?! :D
  24. LQ does nothing for the sound.
  25. :shocked: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Tdga4A-k_1w&fmt=18 TURN IT UP LOUD!!
