Oblivion

how about tonight? 9pm, adelaide time? bottom right corner, you'll find me and devo_au.

lather, rinse, and repeat. (see quote below) short notice i know, but maybe we'll see ya'll there.

Mixed sports car cruise 11 AM, sunday 28/11 (tomorrow) South Australia time converts to approx saturday evening, USA time. heres a link to a world time converter, just change the "convert to" box to your state as ive already setup the rest for you ----------------- further info: ----------------- what im hoping we'll get is a good mix of sports cars in various colours. preferably a variety of cars based on the GT nations cup class. cars: porsches (RUF) , ferrari, lambo, lotus, viper, saleen, etc. but i really dont mind if you want to drive something else. speed cruise control will be set to 200kph. on freeways we may open it up to about 250kph max. location "the big challenge", bottom right corner of the map. we will roughly follow this route up through the middle of the map, and then we'll turn left and head toward the lighthouse for the finish. no man left behind rules in effect dont go blasting off into the distance, try stay as a pack of cars and if someone falls back due to crash or whatever we'll reduce speed until they catch back up.[/b] if you have Teamspeak 2 send me a PM and i'll send you the address so you can join us.. its a private server so i dont want to post details publicly.

im in australia. i have original CD "atari best buys" tdu, and used that megapack no probs. i also sent both of them as a "gift" to a friend who i now race online with :) TDU http://game.gamesplanet.com/buy-download-pc-games/Test-Drive-Unlimited-243-0.html TDU megapack http://game.gamesplanet.com/buy-download-pc-games/Test-Drive-Unlimited---MegaPack-507-0.html

ive got a friend who will be joining us, his nick' is devo. he's not a forum guy, but we'll be going for a crooz' about 8.30pm tonight SA time heres an aussie timezone converter / live state times for instantly working out the time of a crooz' in your area. can this link be added to the OP of this thread for future reference to all aussie cruisers. Start: Kahuku point diner (upper right corner of map) stopping for a quick drink at the Kamunanui diner finishing up at the alamoana diner (in the main city) cruise control will be set to about 250, give or take a little depending on the road so bring what you like, were usually in a B --> D class car. (always good to see a good mix of cars) ;) its only 4 + 1/2 hrs notice, but we hope to see you there. we'll make it a set time for the next few nights so you can plan ahead. i'll update the start point and dest. here so check back if your coming.

go download the V1.66 update (17mb, not while game is loaded) install then play why do ppl need to be spoon fed through auto updates? gimme an exe i can download/save anyday.. i can save it and use it again next reinstall

friday night. long weekend. WOOP WOOP !!!! can we make it half hour later than usual so i can get my dinner in a bit easier... so 6.30 adelaide time / 4.30 perth?

you can get cheap "keychain cams" off ebay for about 10 bucks that work ok. ive been using a FlyCamOne (version2) for the vids on my youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpqSCfOkEXg

by all means use the pics how you like, all i ask for is proper attribution for my handywork :)

ive got the standard TDU + megapack cars... but all cars i do own are +3 tuned.

where are you, and why is it illegal?

Radio Controlled Hobbyzone Supercub (modified) using 7 channel radio gear. its setup so a flick of a switch on my transmitter, makes a servo bump the camera's shutter on command. 10mp Kodak M1073is camera. ----------------------------------------- [imghttp://rc-racing.inghams.net/rc-racing/pictures/HD_AP/resized/100_0764.jpg][/img]

unsynchronised drifting around light house bend, at a buck fiddy' :) pic of the month material! and two more i forgot to post earlier

i let the pics do the talking. my countach has now hit 1000Km. on its clock :D :thumbsup: Logitech G25, doin 300+ hanging onto the wheel one handed while the FFB is kickin and screaming in my hands like a red headed step child... reaching across the table with the other arm, hitting the keyboard like mad to take screen caps. i think ill just program a wheel button into the logitech profiler, click a steering wheel button like crazy while driving 300+ TWO handed on the wheel sounds better hell, i even got one of them "racer seat" office chairs from officeworks for added driving authenticity :)

yeah, that light house in the top left is a popular spot ! ive only played online for a few wks now, once i went there just driving by when i had a real cheap bomb of a car and just started playing.. anyway i seen a line of cars perfectly parked within the white lines next to each other, must have been about 6-10 cars just lined up next to each other.. my bomb couldnt keep up and they lost me pretty quick... i think it was a group gathering.

:excited:

where abouts on the map is it? (rough estimate.. top left, bottom right. or?) screen shots? sure np.. last night i got some vid of me and gd when we were cruising as i started up FRAPS.. (the slower car reference was to him.. but i dont mind following at a true cruising speed) i open er' up now n then, but always slow down n wait if i get too far ahead. (i see you guys wait if i crash which is nice)

i always drive the same thing.. class D: Lambo' Countach LP5000, (+3) in dark blue its got a good top speed of about 340ish, but you really gotta wind it out to get it there.. getting the countach to about 300'ish or above and keeping er' there is a work of art :D you can drive something faster and ill try keep up.. or feel free to drive something slower (like you last night) and i'll just follow behind in 3rd or 4th gear ;) if you really want me to drive something faster, it'll always be the MC12 (looks like a lemans car)

not sure what happened.. you went to get a new car and vanished. im at the diner, hoping to see you there soon

where are you, perth? if so thats 6pm Adelaide time. ill see ya then.
