  1. ^^lol, jep :) 800 races is pretty impressive for just one team though.
  2. Have also stopped visiting there too. The whole forum just seem a complete mess of poorly regulated tripe and repetition. :)
  3. Amazing. Hope you have a great day... :thumbsup:
  4. Happy Birthday Hybrid :excited:
  5. Eeeep. lol. Sorry mate. Diablo confused me by saying 28th. Didn't realise he meant the date. Looking back though I don't know why it didn't twig because you were never that old when we played TDU. Oh well. Sorry again. ;)
  6. Happy Birthday Baldred. Hope you have a fab day and 29th year.
  7. Don't know why I didn't notice the FM3 logo was in in the way. :( Spyker's lovely MF5 is even nicer imo Gumpert has grown on me, although it is a bit crashy.
  8. I can wait till the finished game is gold... I hope :p I'm kind of with Diablo on this one. if its an open beta, it will be hard to control the flood of irrelvant whining. making it even harder to wean out the legitimate communications. The only real reason for an open beta it (as I see it) is to stress test the servers. Being that TDU2 is openworld, I'd imagine they want to keep alot of things under wraps until release. So again an open beta would make that information harder to control. A closed beta participant would probably have to sign some non-disclosure agreement. Besides all this, when a game has reached beta stage, it almost certainly pretty complete. All the major bug finding/fixing is always done at alpha stages anyway. :)
  9. I seem to be posting rather generic comments in TDU2 thread and this one is no different: That video is absolutely beautiful, especially as its all WIP.
  10. LOL, thats rubbish. ;) Very convenient glare just before he goes 'through' the fence. :rolleyes:
  11. Soonish is such a great word. I miss tenebra, she always said it the best way.
  12. At least here we do get the stated line speed all the time. Except when there's one of the random disconnections. Am on fibreoptic and they're trying to upgrade the whole area to it. But they have no concern if they loose connections while they do it. Everything is a complete bodge job.
  13. Great news! :excited: Although I do hope they get the Murcielago Roadster's badge in the right place this time. :p
  14. He's getting old bless him ;)
  15. Oh completely. :p My ISP is shocking. The line should be capped, and I put more faith in speedtest than them. But I've never reached speeds higher than 20mb before so today I was just a little shocked. Everytime I have a problem they can't deal with it on the phone and tell I have to go to their local office (which is 45mins away), who then say I could've just called the helplines... Always amusing. I used to whine about my BT connection :p
  16. I'll often run random tests on my line. I pay for a 16mb connection but today it wasn't capped: :eek2: Shame my upload speed is truly capped at 1mb Tried it again just to make sure I wasn't seeing things... and to check I'd not broken SpeedTest ( ;) ): Even my result to London is was better than normal: NewYork speed is more like it :p Wonder what speeds I'll get if I upgrade to the "30mb" line :confused::D
  17. Just A Day To Go... Must Remain Strong... :eek2:
  18. More powerful More reliable Better connectivity Basically like what other people said :p
  19. Site looks pretty shexeh :thumbsup: Some bugger has already nicked my tag though. Wonder if that because of the database copy?
  20. You're getting old matey. Hope you have an awesome day on TDU ;) :birthday: :wrecked:
  21. Go to the alps, north america etc.... Chairlift up and ride all the way down. Beautiful! Thats what I'll be doing this summer. Plus racing in this
  22. Hmm, some pretty strange advice in here :eek2: Anyway, the Trek you looking at is a pretty decent bike considering your budget. At this end of the scale there's not much difference between each manufacturer, so its good advice to stick with a well known and reliable brand (Trek/Specialized/Kona/Scott) As you BMX I'd suggest getting a fairly small frame. One of the biggest mistakes people make when buying MTBs is getting huge frames. I'm 5'8" and ride and won't go above a 16" (seat tube). A simple way of checking this is to stand over the bike with you feet on the ground. There should be at least 2 inches of clearance between your crotch and toptube of the bike. If you going to be riding the trails (dirtjumps/singletrack) then a smaller frames bike will be easier to move around underneath you. However make sure you have a long enough toptube also. As the bikes get smaller they also get shorter (which is great for the jumps, but rubbish for speed and stability). As long as you don't feel cramped you'll be ok. The Trek seems in the pic seems to have a pretty long stem. Get rid of that as soon as you can. :) Anything above 80mm will just destroy the ride and slow down steering. Why they spec long long stems nowdays is beyond me... its such old fashioned thinking The spec of the Trek would concern me a little, you might find yourself replacing it quite soon (ie. around about a year). There's a nice Specialized at EvansCycles.com at a similar price. £20 more anyway ;). Better frame, better spec and a shorter stem too :D Gimmie a shout if you want any more advice though :)
  23. LOL. To be honest though I got most of the cheiv's just by completing the career mode. The only hard one (for me) was the 100K drift, which took an absolute age and made me bust one of my controllers :o. The 100% was easy but just took time and was boring so I just hired drivers for the last part of it. The rusty rabbit is not mine, but just go to the storefront and search for the liveries for that car. The rusty one is very popular and there are a few versions of it too.
  24. Finally got 1000g, so have got round to taking some more shots Great for tag matches: The SS is a stunning car: Top Gear Homage James May Clarkson: Hampster
  25. Lol, you're not old twm. I'm nearly twice his age and not old yet. Happy Birthday btw :excited:
