Car Freak

Oh God it's one of those hideous monstrosities from China...

I was very intrigued by the whole debacle, and was actually quite hoping that FOTA would do this, if only to see how the FIA reacts... Oh well, even most of the teams have left, I don't think the actual racing drama will change that much. Sure some of the media will stop their coverage of F1 due to all the big names going, but as long as there is good coverage of both, this can only be a good thing to enthusiasts. Besides, if the new FOTA series can make everything cheaper (due to the fact that a big chunk of the money doesn't have to go Bernie's way anymore), then isn't that great for all involved? And here's a very very interesting point to note: The first ever Formula One Championship race was held at Silverstone exactly 50 years ago. Seems like a very appropriate way to bookend Formula One's history, if you ask me... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_one#History

The photo is blurry cos it was taken around 6+, almost 7pm, as well as the fact that i was in my dad's car at the time. Was at the junction where Alexandra Road starts, the car was turning right like going towards the Tanglin area. Can't remember when this was taken, maybe a month ago? Saw this right after seeing a green and black 997 GT3RS

That photo is NOT crappy! >=(

Nice, but not as funny as the first one... And pictures of the rehearsals and filming! http://www.topgear.com/uk/photos/tg-series-13-ep-1

I really do properly hate you

I hope this one is really difficult for you guys: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p265/1carfreak1/shoodontlookhere.jpg

You don't have to wait if you don't want to... You should be able to watch the new episodes one or two days after they air on streetfire.net

Er, Nissan Teana? edit: No wait, i think i got it! Mazda 6? http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p265/1carfreak1/mazda_6_frankfurt_027-0917.jpg

Lexus HS250h?

Nah, I think the Aston Volante one is better. The background just adds to the "Britishness" of the photo. I suppose one could say that the Superleggera one is just another panning shot, perhaps that's why you find it lacking in something

BeliarPL for me, purely for being different

But then again, you have to remember that the Chrysler platform originally came from Mercedes, and lets face it, the Chrysler 300C hasn't just been decent for an American car, it's decent full stop.

Well here's my entry for the week: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p265/1carfreak1/IMG_2522edit.jpg

I really do think we'll be totally outclassed by all PGR4 screenies this time... :(

What do you think it is?

But it's still better than a BMW X6...

Wow. Talk about team rivalry! Why can't we get this sort of close racing in F1? :cry: Gosh imagine if either one of them lost balance through one of the corners... They'd take each other out!

it's spelled Peugeot. That was the Pescarolo one I asked about earlier. Apparently what i heard from teh commentators was that it rolled massively (don't know why though), thankfully the driver is uninjured

Wow Shadow. The version of that vid i saw, it ended right when the Beemer crashed. Didn't know the truck caught fire as well... And to Koenigsegg's vid, when I saw the roll cage in the car (VW Golf if i heard correctly) then I thought they would have been fine. Guess you never know what would happen on the road though...

Dang... You should have gotten a diecast instead... ;)

That trailer is properly epic! "I don't want to grow up..." :rofl:

Yep. Amazing, the cars that were there :nuts: (SGDC stands for SinGapore DieCasters by the way) And here's the thread! http://sgdc.8.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1815 Some properly astounding photos there, my fave being this one: http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb310/Variodical/SGDC_069.jpg (not my photo, but it is my car :D)

I can see SO many problems with this theme, especially when you consider British slang... :D
