And you didn't stop to laught and take photos? :eek: I saw a Golf R, a Panamera, and some puke :D

I've updated the first post so we can play on Saturday. Post below if you can come, I'm hoping to get at least 4 people so we can do some Team games. A friend from the old TDU1 forums recently got the game so hopefully he'll be able to come too. Also when does DST end for you, in case I've got the time conversion wrong?

Thanks for the responses so far (esp those with extra detailed reasons). I'll be honest and say I expected Chrome to be leading due to recent FF builds annoying its userbase but it's very even atm. I once had an external ad blocker app years ago which worked well, forget what it was called, but at this point I might go ahead with Chrome and see what ad-blockers are out there for it. I also already use a custom Hosts file which blocks a lot of nasties regardless of browser or any software, basically a black list of Internet sites for your Windows installation. You can grab it here if you want: Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts File (scroll down for download link).

Ok it's finally time I dump IE9 and at least try a competing browser (again). I'll let you debate help me decide which one to to try next, but first I'll let you know what I like and dislike in case that helps with the deciding and in case you know of any add-ons I'll need. For years I've used the latest IE plus an add-on called IE7Pro. I liked IE for it's clean interpace and lots of screen real estate for web content, and IE9 was plenty fast (on my PC). The addon gave me: Mouse gestures for fast scrolling (and other things, but I only used it to scroll to the top or bottom of pages) Text saver - never had to worry about losing a long rant post on a forum that crashed. Spell checker Favorites sync Keyboard shortcut to enable/disable proxy (for work PC) Flash blocker And a few other things, less important I've tried the main browsers years ago and have had more recent limited exposure to them when fixing other PCs, but the main things I didn't like were: Chrome Had what someone described as a 'Fisher Price' look about it (they make toys for babies/todlers). Are there better themes now? No mouse gestures. Is there an extension for this? Didn't like the toolbar layout or download manager. Are there more options now? Do downloads still open in a tab? Google constantly checking for updates without consent and doing who knows what else. Firefox Was very slow (memory hog) Too many toolbars, not enough screen real estate. Opera Has always been my go-to browser when IE wasn't satisfactory Liked the look, speed, features, options, but never used it enough to set them all up - I only used it for the Opera Turbo, which used a proxy to compress web pages for when I went over the monthly download limit and got shaped bandwidth. Obviously Opera has page rendering issues sometimes. Um yeah so I guess the main choices would be between FF, Chrome, and Chromium (leaning toward the latter). Which of the three do you think is best suited to me, and what extensions do you recommend (links)? Not intersted in Safari at all. +rep available, no flaming :p

Depress Clutch to Start - Manual cars I might not be reading it properly so I'll post the entire link :)

Well duh, of course you need the clutch in :fp:

In some cars you have to have it in first gear for the engine to start, perhaps they had it in neutral or something else. Similar to how you have to have Auto's in P or N to start the engine.

Maybe you have to take the horses head out of your boot :D Perhaps the ECU software had a small revision which would account for small performance differences

Sometime in May 2011 after completing the DLC1 and having no luck winning the Audi R8 Spyder and running out of money

There's a joke in there somewhere but I'll leave it :lol:

Yeah I wonder how far away the next DLC for PC/360 is (or at least how far away the announcement for it will be).

When are they going to hire you as their PR agent Diablo? You do a much better job of hyping things up :p

Picked up a new colour laser printer to replace my Canon MP180 ink-jet today: HP Color LaserJet CP1025nw Has network + WiFi as well as built-in support for ePrint and Google Cloud Print - so I can send an email to the printers' email address and print from pretty much anywhere on any PC or my phone. Not the fastest printer out there, but I don't print a lot and the price was decent.

Except I don't think you need a car license to get a bike license here (you just need to be of that age).

To get motorbike Learners you have to be 18 here (16 for Car Learners, 18 for Car License). Learners can't ride high powered bikes either. Motorcycle learner permits : VicRoads

I wonder what the good:annoying ratio will be. I get annoyed if there's dirt on the windscreen in my line of sight that I can't get off by spraying the wipers. I'm guessing the BMW will have options for transparency or to disable the feature.

BMW 3 Series getting full colour HUD:

I don't mind if they're not there yet, but it would be good to hear from the horses mouth if they are indeed working on this (or have one guy working on it, which'll probably mean it won't be ready for a long time).

I'm not sure which of these smilies to use: :sohappy: or :dontcare: :lol:

We need an 'awwwww' smiley :) This will have to do: :glomp:

It's $50 on Steam atm Driver San Francisco on Steam Even less on eBay: driver san francisco | eBay

I've been looking through the DSF Film Director videos thread and came across this one, which reminded me of Leadfoot's COTM videos

So did he win the race?

It was nice knowing you :lol:

Yeah I'm not really playing the game much until I get a wheel that works with the X360.
