Camel

Yea, as long as the car was AWD when bought, you can tune it up to C460 but it must stay AWD. I just chose the Audi because I didn't have time to upgrade a car and set a lap at the time.

Set a time in a bog standard Audi RS2 of 1:41.222 for you to beat.

[headline]Camel's Victory Lap v2.0[/headline] What's this about? Think of it as turboduck's own Rivals, but with some proper rivalry in the community. The Rules: You must use the car (or a car that meets the restrictions) and track chosen by the previous winner. Tuning/Setups are allowed this week. Dirty laps do not count, stay off the lawn kids. Laps do not have to be from a standing start (flying laps count). If you already have a faster lap recorded outside of the competition, this does not count, you must record another and take a picture for proof. Banana for scale. If you win, don't forget to chose a car/track for the next week before Monday! Make sure to do your times in RIVALS (or free play), they will not be recorded in test drive.

Woops.

:birthday: Ohhh I hope you have the first of your adult hangovers! Where it lasts for the whole day! :cheeky:

I hate puddles. 2:52.041 Eau Rouge can be taken almost flat out and without using the brakes but I only managed it once and I went off later in the lap. :( Don't think I'll be able to do it again though.

Oh. Well they had better get a yellow sponsor then. :)

:nods: That does look rather tasty. Shame that the tyre sidewall colours aren't all yellow!

Absolutely disgraceful. I mean, I don't know how they dare do such a thing. :( Shame I don't have Origin installed. :(

Awww, all those TDU feels are coming back again. :(

Ohhh, I liked not knowing what he was gonna do next. Crastor Maldonardo will be missed. As far as I know, the earliest reveal is tomorrow with Renault and then Ferrari in a couple of weeks. Less than 2 months until the first race! :)

Got to love Japan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f62Z8Ev9OXA

But it was 9 years and a couple of hours. There's always next year to get it spot on. :cheeky:

Holy moly. Been here for 9 years. You get less for murder!!! :eek: :bparty:

Personally I think you'd be better off with a new PC if you're not comfortable building your own. Upgrading off the shelf computers from the likes of HP, Dell and Lenovo doesn't tend to turn out too well. The motherboard doesn't appear to support any CPUs in the last couple of years which could make finding one a it tricky and possibly expensive. Wouldn't recommend a used one. Case ventilation may also be an issue too as it looks to be quite small with no fans/vents on the front or side. If you upgrade the GPU to something decent you will more than likely need a new PSU. Then the CPU will be a bottleneck so that will need to be upgraded which would mean a new motherboard and it goes on and on and on! Sorry to be the bear of bad news. Others may say otherwise but imo they're wrong. :p

Some awesome shots you got there. :nods:

Were you trying to get stuck on purpose? :lol:

Should be a rule that I can't choose. :lol: If I win then whoever posts a car/track combo first on Sunday gets to choose. :)

:pathead: Whose choosing next weeks?

There must be a lot of money in a car like that too. Something simple, rugged and dependable that they could make money on just from selling and not then rely on expensive aftersales repairs and servicing. But we'll just have to wait and see what the JLR boardroom people come up with. £2 and 2 minutes for a replacement headlight bulb or £20 and an hour.

Only been on it for 10 minutes all I can say is wow. The movement feels great and the cover system is really well thought out and easy to use. The map doesn't look massive but it seems big enough to me so far considering you can only move about on foot. There is a a mention of another zone to the game that I can't see on the map so maybe it is bigger. The world feels full of life with plenty of NCPs pottering about or shouting at you. The enemies do seem to be bullet sponges but it does feel well balanced at the expense of a bit of realism. You can take quite a big of damage yourself and I think the enemies are spongey because it's a game that you should be playing with other people rather than going lone wolf. If they died with a couple of shots it would be far too easy imo. Can't wait for March when I can play it with friends!

Downloading this the other night but haven't been on it yet. But from what I hear it's sounding pretty awesome so I'll try and go on it tonight or sometime tomorrow as it ends tomorrow. :( Still, not long to wait for the retail release in early March.

Those interior shots are simply amazing. Looks better than real life!

Tis a sad day for the motoring industry in Britain. They have been the countries work horse for well over half a century. I'm looking forward to seeing the replacement to the Defender but please make it look nicer than the concept that was revealed last year. Puh-leez!
