    A WD-40 question...

    Just thinking what would be the best product to use on my door locks, boot lock, etc? Is good 'ol WD the best way to go, or would a thicker grease-based product be better instead? Cheers, D.

    RALLYPUG - finally spotted???

    That's him........ it must be........ about a 100 yards on the left. If you squint hard enough, you can just make out the profile of a Cup. Or at least I think it is.....? D.

    IE6 ga-ga question...

    My dad's PC has a weird Internet Explorer issue that I suspect is some form of denial-of-service shite that he's picked up. Basically, when he launches IE, it opens up and minimises onto his toolbar. He's got BBC set as his homepage at the moment and when you click on the minimised icon, rather...

    GTR car stats

    I've got a small (24kb) Excel file that lists the power outputs (both torque and BHP and @ RPM) for all of the cars listed featured within GTR. I can't put a Putfile link or similar on here as it's a spreadsheet (a big no, no for AV reasons, clearly) but if anyone wants to PM me, I'll email it...

    182 with stripes and Valver, this morning...

    Saw a racing blue 182, complete with stripes, southbound on the M66 around Junc. 2 at Bury. Would have been about 8.10am... About 10 mins later, a burgandy red Valver (N-plate, I think) came from the opposite direction on Grane Road. Anyone? D.

    GT Legends - now £14.99

    Looks like PC World stores have it on sale price until the end of Jan. A true bargain for those PC owners who haven't bought it yet! :approve: D.

    Silver 182 - near Blackburn Hospital...

    Cupped-up and turned down that road between The Obervatory pub and KFC on the corner. Would have been about 1.15pm today. Didn't catch the reg as I was coming up the hill from the other side... D.

    About 6.30ish tonight. I was sat in the car on the phone and one 03 plate silver 172 went past me, followed by a silver Valver about a minute later. Anyone? D.

    Turbo techie question....

    I think I'm missing something here. I can understand putting braided covers and other wrappings on turbo parts and exhaust manifolds to reduce the overall heat build-up in the engine-bay...but..... http://www.merlinmotorsport.com/product_info.php?products_id=1064 Putting part of the turbo...

    Internet issue - redirecting to FoxMovies.com

    Anyone come across this? It's looking like an issue that targets ISA Server, but we're not 100% sure on that yet. Basically, all the main brands of AV software and spyware have their webpages forwarded on to www.foxmovies.com or www.fox.com. It also affects Google too, but other sites like...

    Benchmarking utils for PC

    Can anyone recommend PC benchmarking software, ideally not graphics biased? I'd like to get so idea of performance relating to the CPU, memory, chipset and mobo for a couple of different setups. Cheers, D.

    PC component suppliers in the USA

    Anyone know of any decent ones? Got relatives over there that are going to be building their new PC shortly. Just wanted to point them in the right direction.... Cheers, D.

    What is it with the Exaltos???

    Ok, it maybe a run of bad luck, but I doubt it. I live at the same address and work at the same place as I have done for years. Yet unbelievably, I've picked up a third puncture in just 12 months with the 182... Actually, that's a lie - techinically it's four. When I had it repaired today...

    182 alarm (going off) fixed....

    Quite a few of us on here seem to suffer from their 182 (and Vee's?) alarm going off at random times. After a crap night's sleep last Thursday with the alarm going off regularly between 1.30am and 5am and a couple of nights after - enough was enough. Even the AA man couldn't disable the alarm...

    Your top three Arcade machines?

    In no particular order, I'd say the following battered my pocket-change more than anything... 1942 Nemesis (and Salamander, if I saw it) Knights of the Round TableThese young 'uns these days would laugh at the hey-day products of Taito, Midway and Williams. Their mobiles probably have far...

    Ah - the educated yoof of today....

    ..... getting into my car earlier when two dodgy looking lads walked past. I looked over at them and one said to the other "Top f**king Williams, that..." Hmmm. Half a mark I suppose for effort - it is a Clio after all... ;) D.

    SoundBlaster X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS card

    Looks to be the next upgrade on my PC. It may also have something to do with the fact that I'll be able to select 'Ultra High' in audio settings for Battlefield 2 now. :D http://www.soundblaster.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=208&product=14000...

    Belkin Nostromo gamepads for PC

    I've dug-out my old n50 Nostromo gamepad for the PC and I'm trying to get used to it again... Anyone else use that or the newer n52 model? I've tried it on a few games of BF2 against the bots with mixed success, tbh. :o I guess more practice is required....! If anyone uses an n50 and has...

    Is tracking part of a 12k service?

    Mornin' all As the title really - does a check of the car's tracking come part of a 12k service, or would it be extra? Cheers, D.
