Rear black and white shot is awesome...as is the car :)

Money and no taste, judging by the colour he went for. Looks like a ladybird, just one with 1000bhp up its arse.

In a state of shock over this one, the missus spotted S25 CUP near Lacock today, driven by a man. Taken by surprise a bit as I sold it to a girl in Wales back in September. Pleased to hear it still looks mint and standard.

'At the moment' being the key part of that post! Do we know when they get switched off from Freeview yet? June 1st rings a bell.

This one will run and run... Virgin Media Continues to Challenge Anti-Competitive Behaviour by Sky Following Sky's withdrawal of its basic channels from Virgin Media's (NASDAQ: VMED) TV service, Virgin Media has formally advised Sky that it will pursue action in the high court if their...

It will indeed, it hasnt been well publicised by Sky are pulling the plug on all of their Freeview channels. They are replacing them with a Pay TV package. That bit alone is music to my ears!

Aside from the actual money Sky will have lost from the non-renewal from Virgin, they also had to consider that advertising revenues will drop due to automatically losing a shed load of viewers instantly. I'm surprised Sky never caved in the end, but judging by their mission to buy into ITV, I...

Fair enough, but isn't creating adverts specifically broadcast to Cable customers urging them to complain to Virgin a little ridiculous? By all accounts the offer available to Virgin isn't remotely linked to the viewing figures etc that those channels bring in. Sure they have Lost and it...

I love the Broadband package, purchased it as 512k years ago, not paying a penny more but now it's 8MB or something. Love it. For similar reasons the TV also has potential to be much better than the Sky offering (Teleport is a good start), as I mentioned above the stored content is being...

Or Sky, depending at how you look at it. I'm pleased Branson has taken a stand and not been shafted by Sky on this one. Apparently the money they wanted was ridiculous considering there has been a significant ans steady decline in viewers from Sky One in particular over the past few years...

Still working on all these pics. Got some good harsh criticism (which I always welcome) of my composition on a photography forum for the ones I showed them, so I'm working on some different crops etc. A few new ones...

Surface always looks rubbish in pics and vids, nobody ever complains when actually driving on it though. Will take a look at the vids when I get home tonight.

One of the most expensive countries for the PS3 = UK Most limited functionality for the PS3 = UK http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=73417 Honestly, what the hell are they playing at? You couldn't make it up.

^^^ That was on the warm up lap I think, everybody did that straight off the first corner (apaprt from the Evo!), I only caught yours, Paul Js and Rob669s though.

A bit dark for some of the 1/800 stuff I wanted to do to capture mud flying etc, how much would a 80-200mm f2.8 set me back ;) Bloody DSLRs.

pmsl, that's quality. How old is he?

Pleased you like them. As I will get asked sooner or later... Nikon D50 with Sigma 70-300mm lens (the cheapo one, £90, love it!) for most, Sigma 10-20mm for the distorted wide static shots. 1/320 for head-on and 3/4 shots (generally), up to 1/800 for freezing-the-dirt-kicking-up sort of...

A selection of non-Clio pics from the Airfield today, some varied motors in attendance today.... The rest are here... http://chrisharrison.smugmug.com/gallery/2513669

Another great day at the Airfield, unbelievable turnout, loads of great cars and lots of fun as always. Took 800 pics with the new camera, loved every minute of it, uploaded around 100 of them at the usual place (link below) http://chrisharrison.smugmug.com/gallery/2513669 As always if...

Just got back from NYC and was amazed at how easy it is to find a PS3 even in Midtown Manhattan. I had read stories saying as much but it was still kind of surreal seeing them literally stacked up in some stores (they were limited to one per person though, oddly) In stark contrast there were...

Sky are pulling them from Freeview, setting up some sort of premium service like Top-Up TV where you can pay to watch certain things such as some Premiership games, movies etc via Freeview. We're sticking with Telewest/Virgin, had TV/Phone/Broadband from them since day one and had no...

I notice that an LP640 press car was crashed "by an unnamed driver" at a BBC test track not so long ago. He was not injured but the car had to be shipped back to Lambo for a complete rebuild. I assume this was The Stig for Top Gear...?

Oulton isn't in the BGT mod, you have to get it seperately, that gives you 2 versions, Fosters GP and International. As for steering sensitivity, try this... Sensitivity: 10% Dead Zone: 5% Speed Adjustment (or whatever it's called): 75% Worked well for me, changed to a 360 pad last...

You have to get it seperately from here... http://www.nogripracing.com/files.php

I have no space at all for a wheel, not happening sadly. Got myself a wired Xbox 360 pad this evening and now got it running on my PC, much better.

^^^ Now done. Which pad are you guys using for those without a wheel? My PS2 + Smartjoy combo really sucks for GTR2, can't find any sensitivity settings that are of any use whatsoever.

Got the game today, trying to update to 1.1 but the file from the official site (RAR file) keeps saying it is corrupt when I download it. Trying the Atari site now but it's slower than this place ffs!

Yup, change tyres once they get to 2mm at the latest. Probably notice by then anyway as you get quite severe tramlining once tread is low.

There is a red Mk1 172 on Autotrader local to me at the moment, £3800. Pretty rare for one of these to come up, in good condition as well iirc, seen it about a few times and I've never seen it on track or anything locally. Looks gorgeous, probably the best colour/Clio combo I've seen...

Top stuff, incredible to think what your car has been through over 78k.
