This thing's a tad tail-happy, I'll tell you that. :D

What makes you think that? :D

Speaking of fuel economy, I was rather surprised by how little petrol the miata consumes as opposed to expectations. I figured that it would consume a lot more than my Golf did, that was around 6l/100km (38,9mpg). Now the miata takes on about 7,5l/100km (31,4 mpg). I thought it would be at least 10 or 9. And this is considering that I drive mostly urban.

Yeah, that is definately clear. And it's especially visible when Ryan is around. :D

Looks to me like ozz simply started spinning all by himself, having seen Ryan go past like that. Kind of like what happened when Ryan went off the track when we were driving around in Le Mans that one time.

I could totally use that wheel, bro. By 6-or-7-or-8-year-old wheel has reached the point, that the FFB is pretty much identical on every single thing i drive in any damn game. + the 270 degree rotation means i have to use the low-lock sensitivity thing which really puts off the continuity of the steering like you wouldn't believe. :D

Hi, I'm new here. And I just stopped by to post a gif. Thanks, guys, you're the best.

Decided to plop in here with a little bit of my car history, it's not long, really, I've just recently bought my second one, more on that later. I'm basically repeating some of what i've said in the introduction thread, but since i dont imagine there's a lot of people checking that out, i feel it's fine to repeat myself here. First car was what anyone would expect; a VW Golf MK4, SUPER BLUE 1.9TDI, with a whopping 90HP (66kW). That seemed more than enough at the time, and i was seriously glad i got that car, first time i drove it it made a blow-off-valvish-noise because the cat was removed, so that scored some extra points for sure. Kept driving that car (and loving it) for nearly three years. Then, suddenly this march i decided it's time to let it go and find something different, and by that i mean completely different. Weighed some options and reasonings, took into account my needs and yadda yadda, came up with getting something any-sized inexpensive petrol RWD japanese car. That ended up being an MX-5. I told myself that I'd get that car before summer at whatever cost, and ding ding, that actually worked out. Bought a 2002 MX-5 from Germany for 2000eur. It's a 1.6, but god damn do i love that car. Took a while for me to get used to the petrol power being in way higher rpms, torque also a good bit lower, so going from a standstill took practice too. All in all - super buy, super happy with it. Now need to fix a bit of rust and get ready for winter. :D Below I provide pics of both cars, dudes. The Golf [ATTACH]20774[/ATTACH] And what I've gotten for myself [ATTACH]20775[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]20776[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]20777[/ATTACH] And that be all for now.

For anyone REALLY interested, a ghost of that time should be up. Had to kill a number of cones before making that lap, you see. And in general the 1st chicane was a bit messy.

OH MY GOD

Decided to try out going against a ghost with another car. That happened to be a gumpert. I am not dissapoint. [ATTACH]20773[/ATTACH] EDIT Btw, guys, are next events going to be on empty leaderboards? Because that is very handy. And last time i checked there's plenty of car-track combos that can be made this way.

The board wont get updated with that, but i landed a time about thirty-something miliseconds faster than yesterday. :D

Here's another one, dudes. Scratch that last one. :D [ATTACH=CONFIG]20760[/ATTACH] [competition intensifies]

Darn, i just set my PC up in front of a big TV and have to use a coffee table as a desk. Should be interesting to see if I can make this work. Maybe put a few more books under it.. Huh. EDIT: I took out the thing for the thing, but when i took a screencap when the time was blinking and stuff, basically i captured the moment when you cant see the time. But it's up on the leaderboards now, so that's sorted kind of by itself. Proof : [ATTACH]20748[/ATTACH]

I recall I used to be on the level with him. Sometimes. :D Ok, occasionally might be the better word.

I'm so in on all fours for the PC here, guys.

Sounds good, man. I r8 8/8, m8

Ryan suggested I post here. So I'm posting here (didn't really notice an introduction thread, and that is just silly) Without expanding too much, my life as a guy-who-plays-games-but-also-uses-forums started with Test Drive Unlimited some years back, when it actually had multiplayer, played lots of that, no driving or racing game can compare in time spent since that. Nowadays I busy myself with pretty much everything pCARS Assetto Corsa Civilization V Company of Heroes And then pretty much anything else you can name goes on the list as well. Getting back to TDU, that was when everyone I constantly played with started calling me Andi. So there's that. I Live in remote Lithuania, used to drive a golf MKIV as a 1st car [ATTACH]20674[/ATTACH] That is until this spring. That's when I decided I want a non-diesel, non-front wheel drive, non-four door, non-BMW car. So by summer I managed to sell the Golf and get myself a Mazda MX5. Great car, no regrets so far. :D That's it for now, ladies and gentlemen, good to be here and here's to some good foruming.

I imagine it would be interesting to see videos of racing with crabbing cars. :D

I wanna post here too. Have a little speed shot from a multiplayer race i had a few months ago, I swear it's a decent shot. :D [ATTACH]20666[/ATTACH] Then there was one where I tried getting a shot in the dark. [ATTACH]20667[/ATTACH] Right, done for now.

So far i got myself a 3:45:xx but that's possibly not very accurate, i'll see if i can take a screenie after another update finished downloading. MAYBE EVEN A VID First post, go me. See you all around some more from now on. Le EDIT: Kay, went around and managed to make two valid laps out of roughly 7 as usual. [ATTACH]20665[/ATTACH] The laps after this one was looking to be a good bit better, but then i decided to brake too late for the 1st chicane on the straight and that pretty much was it.
