    Assetto Corsa.... Where the hell are you guys, you're missing out!

    I remember that, 612, 599 and the 430 scud were in the original version, I quite liked that. XRT/Mitsubishi Starion Turbo was great, I'm more of a LX6 kinda guy though ;)

    Best LED sidelights

    See there, they're kicking up more glare than your actual headlights, which I don't like. Here's my SMD's.

    Help with 2004 1.2 8V broken accelerator

    I know Phase 1's have a cable throttle. But I don't know about the Ph.2 D7F. Have a look for a cable on the throttle body.

    White sidelights

    1. SMD is better than LED IMO. I use These. Cheap to replace if they do go tits up, but I went at least 6 months before one started flickering. 2. You don't want to be using bulbs as bright as your headlights, because that'd just blind people, so fairly weak bulbs like those posted above are OK...

    Best LED sidelights

    You're special. IMO they're too bright for sidelights. And I don't agree that they're the whitest either. My Q5's aren't the whitest LEDs going, it depends on what you get.

    Assetto Corsa.... Where the hell are you guys, you're missing out!

    Funnily enough, it's from the person who built Netkar Pro, which uses a lot of Live For Speed's physics. I've been reading up and physics wise it's about on par with LFS, which IMO is still leading the sim world, but it's not quite finished yet, and it's definitely pretty. LFS V2 has been...

    Quick question :insurance

    IIRC it's any car with at least TPF&T insurance.

    Ken Block is fcukin insane...

    Where did I say that I was a better driver than him? In actual fact I have already said that at times he can be a good driver, but inconsistent. I didn't realise that we had to be superior to literally everyone to even pass comment on them. In that case we'd better close down football chat...

    Insurane renewals - WHY!

    I normally get an email from them a month beforehand with the renewal price.

    meets and membership

    I agree, if you want meets then organise them ;) Doesn't matter if you only get 2 or 3 people coming, some of the best meets I've ever had were with very few people.

    Are you saying that a normal AWD car is setup the same as the car in the video, despite me explaining the several reasons why it's not? And yes, I have driven an AWD car. And because people like coleman are posting without reading, I am out again. Midnight's not far off the truth though.

    Ken Block is fcukin insane...

    1. No. Read point 1 again. If you don't have the front wheels spinning you won't be able to vector force left and right with the front wheels, similar to a bow thruster on a ship. If you don't have the rear wheels spinning you'll understeer. 2. That's exactly what I just said. 40% to the front...

    Care to explain? With actual physics.
  14. McGherkin

    Ken Block is fcukin insane...

    Several reasons really. 1. You do not have enough power. For a AWD car to drift well, it needs enough torque to spin all 4 wheels. So you need lots of torque from the engine, short gear ratios, or a low friction surface. 2. Most AWD cars have a fairly central torque split. Most cars are around...

    Ken Block is fcukin insane...

    Mummy and Daddy weren't rich enough to get me into it at the age of 12. The likes of Simon McKinley, Patrick Snijers etc (google!) are fantastic drivers, but if you haven't been rallying since before you can earn your own money then you've had it as far as competing at a professional level is...

    Ken Block is fcukin insane...

    You could pull off 90% of those drifts easily. Seriously, it's a lot easier than drifting a RWD car. The rest of the stunts, eg doing donuts around segways, you will probably do in a reasonable number of takes. Someone with actual talent, e.g. all the drivers on the WRC for a start, should be...

    Ken Block is fcukin insane...

    Donutting an AWD car with a heavy RWD bias is piss easy. Simply turn right to increase drift angle, turn left to decrease it (and vice versa). Throttle control is not required. All of the stuff you see in his videos is pretty much normal for rallying. But 'Murica hasn't heard of rallying, so...

    Ken Block is fcukin insane...

    He isn't and like pretty much all of his gymkhana videos I found it very dull. What's insane about doing donuts in a heavily RWD biased car, again and again until you get it right?

    Newbie from Plymouth

    Welcome, quite a few of us from Plymouth :) RS grille, colour coded bumper strips, 172/182 xenon headlamps, few LED's to smarten things up and it'll look tidy. Sport interiors go for about £150.
