Alright just a had a quick run in the RUF Rt12 and I am 50/50 split on the new handling as there is stuff I like and as always stuff which I don't quite agree with. First the likes: * I like the fact the car has weight to it now and that it doesn't seem to fly as high over some crests and dips and you now have to be extra careful when driving at over 150mph as the car will not turn as sharp as before which tbh I do like as it keeps you on your toes. * I like the added grip that the tires now have, in most cars you can not burnout all the way up if you start in a high gear so this change makes sense. * Braking seems improved, don't know how to explain it but it just does. * Maybe it's just me but there appears to be more rumble feedback with your car now, you can feel your car rather than just bumps in the road. Again hard to explain. (BTW wireless has less harsher feedback to save battery power so if you can, try with a wired one) Now the dislikes: * Not being able to rev in gear. * There is some niggling form of tc on your car now even with aids off and it makes it difficult to power out of a turn and have your rear end dancing like a pendulum. * Still no rear wheel locked when handbraking. Summary --------- All in all there is a difference in the cars now, the good is they now have weight and actually feel like it via the rumble and hopefully some people can confirm FFB for us. Driving like a looney in traffic is even more unnerving due to the car actually having weight and a delay when turning at high speeds. But there's always a but, with no aids the car isn't completely free of assisted control and those who like to attempt to drift will have some issues trying to high speed drift, low speed is actually fun but because of the added assistance it's difficult to keep your wheels spinning in a high gear. As with everything it may just be a getting used to it scenario and I will persevere with it later but for now I got work to do. Don't dismiss it without putting in some time first and also try some different cars also.

Hi there NOOA welcome to TDU Central, I'm sure with the game fast approaching release for PC that there will be a few of us here you will see online with many more to come in the near future. :welcome:

Not sure, I've just posted the Required System Specs up top but I'm sure someone should be able to help you. Welcome to the board !

Operating System : Windows 2000/XP/Vista CPU : Intel P4 @ 2.4Ghz or AMD Athlon 2800+. GPU (Video Cards) : ATI Radeon 9800 256MB VRAM or Nvidia 6600 GT with 256 MB of VRAM.

Others are saying they now FFB but they still have to setup the wheel whatever that means so I believe it is the FFB update many have been waiting for.

Hi there Sam, welcome to the board matey and thanks for signing up ! :welcome: :monkeydance:

What's happened is that Google is set to display images as well as text ads and now that the trial period is over, the Google ad spider has determined because of the traffic visiting this site that these ads are suitable for display. Not to mention Virgin Media are going all out in advertising right now so you do see them everywhere. It's still only Google ads so don't worry there's not going to be any buzzing mosquito or stupid flash games showing and remember if you're interested in what an ad shows, click it because it means we can do more for the community. :) Cheers!

Re: TDU Central Competiton #1 Wahey and we're under way, Hybrid and Baxie got the ball rolling and tested out the stages for us and we have to admit it went well and they both hated it and cursed us so we knew we had chosen the right car and course. :stinks: The rest of you who entered will have your chance to compete in the upcoming weeks, it takes about an hour to do so if and when we contact you make sure you have this time to spare. Thanks and good luck ! Oh we won't be telling you anyone's times until the very end. :D Hybrid_IV and Baxie. (Click image for larger image) Note: This competition is not open to anymore entries as the time for doing so has passed, this thread is open now to discussion regarding this competition only. Thanks!

No you only get the one from the dealer but you can buy as many as you want via trade.

Updated the first post with some info about a PC wheel giveaway for the first 20 days of when this goes live.

NIIIISSSSMOOO ... I mean Nissan Micra Power. uh yeah. Nice wee SLK55 AMG also.

Ooops I shouldn't have drank last night, look where I posted this thread ! lol moving now.

I usually keep it on in the background and visit regularly to keep tabs on the boards running as well as I'm always making little hidden changes to templates and the like as well as looking to see what spiders are annoying the board as always. As well as working away on the main site also. :D

If you keep the image here then it eats up the official websites bandwidth which is also known as leeching. Not recommended and if you do post the image in here it will always change due to it always updating itself every minute or 2. So make sure you save it and then use either of the 2 options mentioned in the first post. Looks like a nice day in Nurburg too and the Ring is open till 17:30 GMT+1

From looking down below (hey!) we can see that Reanimation is 1 year older today !! Happy Birthday mate, have a good one.:monkeydance: "Celllllebrate good times come on !"

As you are asking both camps, this has been moved to TDU General.

October 2007 I think, GTA's usually release around there.

There we go it's been added now. To add your gamespy id just goto your User CP > Edit Profile and enter your id into the field and it will show with your posts. Also changed the colours to match their actual counterparts, what do you think? Note if you have both a Live tag and a gamespy id feel free to post them both, mine is just showing as a test as I only have Live at the moment. Enjoy ! :D

What is this called for the PC is it just Gamespy, Gamespy ID, Gamespy tag etc ...? What about gamespy: tag Plus is there like a profile page that shows some info about that specific gamespy id?

Re: TDU Central Competiton #1 Just under 8 hours left to get your name down for this.

There is a Black 997 Porsche Turbo hitting the track and it's wet ! :cool:

This is always a very popular topic and can make for some very interesting and special finds including concept cars and prototypes. The webcam updates every minute but you need to manually refresh yourself and note if you wish to show an image you've found either; 1) Save it to your computer and add it to your post as an attachment or 2) Save it to your computer and upload to somewhere like imageshack, photobucket and show it in your post via the tags.

Rockstar has revealed we'll get our first look at its next-gen gangland adventure on 29th March, when a trailer for Grand Theft Auto IV will be shown across the Internet horizon. Rockstar was unable to comment on what exactly we could see in the trailer, though we're sure it will be enough to ruffle Jack Thompson's feathers and make us dribble a little excitement in our news-pants.
