Not sure why given the relatively dull subject matter, but I love this... Britcar 24hr 2012 by Harry_S, on Flickr

Physics are definitely the same, played it for a while yesterday at Silverstone, it's Forza on the road, quite simply. I think people will be pleasantly surprised, if you want to drive 'properly' on the road it's by far the best example I've seen in that genre.

Re: iPhone 5. Pre-Orders 14/9. Ships 21/9. iOS6 Today @ 6PM Is anyone else getting weird black and white bands of detail in the Satellite view? Search Hilperton, for example. The town to the left is in a thin band of reasonable detail, but my village is just a colourful blur.

Re: iPhone 5. Pre-Orders 14/9. Ships 21/9. iOS6 Today @ 6PM They really are shocking, the level of zoom in satellite mode on my town is not unlike somebody taking a wide angle photo from the ISS, when it was Google I could see the little pond in my garden. Lovely, if you live in San Francisco...

Lovely clean photos, great composition. What lens are you using?

Didn't have any problems with the G3 in regards to moving subjects, well beyond my expectations for it actually. This is worth a nosey...http://micromotorsport.wordpress.com/2011/09/11/afc-vs-afs/ (if I do say so myself!) as it operates in the opposite way to what you would expect.

Great stuff, some lovely panning in there. As said, borders are naff and the saturation looks a little 'heavy' in quite a few pics, but overall a lovely set of shots. Marcos LM600 in attendance I see, don't see that out and about too often (there is only one, Marcos were based a mile from my...

Finally got the update this morning, 45 mins from start of download to completed installation, impressive stuff, Safari is definitely quicker (2011 Mac Mini 2.5ghz). One thing that could have been great, but isn't quite, is the Airplay functionality. Great if you have a MBA/MBP, but for those...

Great Little War Game is pretty good, turn based but similar concept otherwise. Huge game, been playing for days and no idea where it's going to end!

I got the password email, but not the code one!

Worth waiting for Youview through BT if, like me, your house isn't cabled and you don't want Sky. They should be using the Humax box (a very good thing), which will mean Youview, Freeview HD and BT Vision in one package.

Still no code for me, lots of people giving in and buying it then hoping for a refund from Apple...best of luck with that one.

Brings to mind my favourite gallery from Le Mans, completely shot with Instagram... http://lendurance.co.uk/2012/06/special-edition-le-mans-in-instagram/ There is a lot to be said for attempting things with limited kit, shooting the Britcar 24hr with a Micro 4/3s camera was probably the most...

Nothing for me either, getting close to 24hrs now. I ordered my Mac from the Apple Store online, so in theory it should have been straightforward as they just asked for the order date and Serial No.

Anyone getting a free upgrade due to purchasing a Mac lately? Only bought mine on Monday, requested a code as soon as it appeared earlier today but no email yet. My 40gb cap is not looking good this month, downloaded about 6gb of OS and iLife updates the moment I plugged it in, and now this and...

Quite a few of my pics seem to have appeared in this thread already, but here are a few more...

I only do 5-6k a year so economy wasn't a big factor, saying that I was still stunned how much I got through going to Goodwood and back! Insurance was a nice surprise, £180 with protected no claims.

Brakes made worse by the fact my stupidly large feet can comfortably press both the brake and accelerator pedals at the same time! Gearbox is very sweet, the Ignis Sport had a really nice one but this is something else. Puts my Ph1 (and every other Clio I've owned) to shame in that respect...

I picked this up on Thursday evening, drove straight home, went to bed, then was up at 4am on Friday for a 200 mile roundtrip to the Festival of Speed. Love it, similar to my old Ignis Sport in many ways, superb handling and feels like it's going at about 100mph everywhere (it's not!), feels...

Full album now added...http://chrisharrison.smugmug.com/Motorsport/FOS2012

Love this collection, not a 'throw money at supercars' effort, but a proper car enthusiasts collection. I'm guessing finding some of those in mint condition took quite some time. He drives the Williams quite a bit apparently.

Nope, the Renault set-up was very cool, no space for a Clio though.

Rocking it old school...Canon 5D. All the statics were with a 50mm 1.8, all the hillclimb shots were with the Canon 200mm 2.8 L.

My 4th visit (I think), but my first for a while, it just gets bigger and bigger every year. It looks as though Mr Bahar chucked a few quid around before he was sacked, the Lotus show room was immense. Didn't bother too much with the photography this time as I've done that to death at the FoS...

Spent a good deal of time looking at this today, absolute weapon. Second only to the V12 Lambo engined Lotus in the aural stakes... Alpine A110-50 by Harry_S, on Flickr

Seriously considered it (5D Mk2 + 24-105 f4) as could easily afford the payments but decided I never use finance for a reason (too paranoid about job security)...good job too as my work has just announced 99 redundancies. Could have bit me on the arse (mortgage, bills, food etc will obviously...

VJay was released today (basically a video mixing app), quite expensive but as I knew I would be tinkering around for hours on it I felt it was worth it. Great fun, and considering what it's actually doing it's incredible that it runs smoothly on an iPad. This gives you a good idea of what it...

Yes please, always good to know of local places even if they can't help specifically with this.

Any ideas how to go about this for somebody who pretty much has a mechanical limit of changing a wheel, air filter or topping up oil? I've been given a few places that can do the work on my gearbox, but obviously it needs to come out, be sent off, then be re-fitted again. The chances of that...

Sounds like a plan, plenty of space at home so can garage it, should have a decent amount of funds by September to sort things.
