I get the feeling that all we've done is fund a game-engine at this point. A game probably would have come out regardless, but based on older tech. I'm not saying I mind, but some might.

:mrt:

Is the world ready for your bag, though? :lol: Does look pretty spiffy

It's always the guy at the top at fault. With such a massive company, perhaps the decision was made by some other director lower down the hierarchy, but a CEO and also a risk/compliance officer would at least need to be aware of that kind of thing. I wonder if the strict emissions thing in California is at all related to their love of electric Priuses and Tesla SuperCharge stations. Perhaps VW should have been pushing a beta version of their Golf E exclusively there. I know it goes against their ethos, but anyway.

My fake tailpipes look much the same. I could investigate how to clean them them (standard wash didn't work) or I could just replace them with new ones.

That's just the website background behind the transparent window

A new window to replace the one I just broke in my room. :fp: ^ It's very hard to photograph, as you can see.

Most of us can't be bothered creating threads and posts, let alone gaming cockpits. Those that are don't spend so much time here I guess. :lol: Nice job mate. Careful with those wires mate, don't want to get charged with possessing a hoax bomb ;)

Yep we're gonna let you enter TWO photos per theme! I may have just made that up right now so don't be surprised if it doesn't happen :lol:

Right hand is always on the wheel that way. :smig:

What did that Holden have under the hood?

Well at 35k per vehicle they've bassically been giving them away for free for the past 6 years then

An update on the VW scandal The New York Times Looks like it's going to cost them big. We don't appear to have anything like that down here. Cars only have to be tested as to roadworthiness when you buy/sell a car. Not every 6-12 months. And those roadworthiness checks don't include emissions monitoring. I am however quite concerned about Australian standards on motorcycle helmets. Well, we don't even have a standard, as it's different from state to state. Ride across a border and you could be fined for wearing an illegal helmet. Out-of-date legislation also means that there is no such thing as a compliant helmet in my state today being sold. Being unable to import helmets reduces competition and sends prices sky high. Being unable to affix stickers means some who wear GoPros on their helmets have been fined. European CE standards have been proven to be better, and are used in both F1 and MotoGP. To meet AU regulations, our helmets have to to be tested using a magnesium head, which is not a suitable analog for a human head. This means that to pass the test, the helmet must be heavier and more dense, which reduces the cushioning 'air-bag' effect of the foam and makes it more likely that a human skull would be damaged (as it's not made of magnesium). AU also has a spear penetration test, which doesn't exist for Europe, and according to crash statistics pretty much never happens in real life - this also reduces protection. Petitions have been around for a long time asking AU to either unify regulations across all states or preferably abolish them and permit riders to use any CE or DOT helmet. You can read more here.

Is it me you're looking for?

I wonder if that's the same for other countries. Although to be fair, these tests only tend to make the cars worse to live with day to day. Shifting to maintain as low revs as possible, cutting the engine at traffic lights, it's all a PITN to live with. I spent $600 on a sports steering wheel with gear-shift paddles and then $900 re-tuning the DSG box so that it uses 1750rpm as a minimum instead of 1400. It may use 0.2l/100kph more but it's so much more nicer to drive.

Surely Red Wagen sounds better. Begs the question Mike, isn't F1 only for the biggest players? Ignoring the phrase 'relatively speaking', what are small teams doing in there in the first place? Isn't that what Formula 3, 4, Gulf, E, etc is for?

Traditionally we're used to seeing Clarkson or TG release a special DVD production at the end of the year, but it's entirely possible - or even likely - that we won't have one for 2015. Fear not though, as Ben Collins has a DVD due for release on November 9. In case you didn't know, ex-Stig is also a Stunt driver, helping blonde 007 out, and working in other recent movies as well. To learn more, visit his website and/or read his books. In this DVD, Ben seeks to find the 'best' stunt car. A trailer was released today.

Wasn't there a big argument on this for one of the banner pic competitions? :lol:

At first I thought you meant they were buying the entire brand/company. :eek: But you just mean the F1 team. :carryon:

More match highlights from myself and others

Some screen captures during gameplay Not sure how this guy is planning to help me save the goal attempt - or a terrific own goal attempt Just after another difficult save I don't even Thanks for moving

I wouldn't even mind if NFS 2015 had that kind of low-cost cockpit.

I was only ever expecting a gamepad experience with this title but I have to wonder if they'll add some basic wheel support given this level of detail. I did play a number of versions with the wheel from around MW 2005 to Shift 2. I am a little concerned over what the online experience may end up like though. Will players feel disadvantaged with a more realistic setup and go back to being able to drift at 200mph?
