    Trophy? M66 southbound this morning...

    Caught a glimpse of it on the opposite side of the motorway - stuck in traffic. Would have been approx 8.15am this morning. Anyone? D.

    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...

    So - who has actually got their mitts on a 360?!

    I haven't too many good stories of people getting them yet? Anyone got there's up and running yet? D.

    Battlefield 2 - this weekend?

    Any takers? Any preferences on days and times? Assuming we don't have patch problems again though....! :rasp: D.

    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.

    YA02 - silver 172 - on the way to Bury

    Behind me in the s**t-heap (Jag) with xenons and front fogs on. Would have been Wednesday evening - approaching the turn-off next to the Seven Stars pub, off Junc 2, M66.... D.

    Racing blue 182 - Dalgety Bay, yesterday

    Pulled out of a junction in front of us. 05 plate - didn't spot a CS.... D.

    Surely to god you don't want a 360 THAT much?!

    Battlefield 2 : Spec Ops. Ordered today...

    Supposed to be out this Friday I think. Only £14.99 from Play.com so I can't really argue if it's a load of crap! Be interesting to see how the new units and maps perform. I hope it's not all night-vision crap and too dark like Doom 3 & Quake 4 - that will really piss me off... :nono: D.

    The Moon - last night (pic)

    Quite weird. Took this picture of the moon last night. It had a ring-like halo effect on it. Just a shame I didn't have a higher rez camera and a steadier hand to take the picture with!

    ITG panel filter. In or out for service?

    Should I take out the ITG panel filter and swap it for the original one for the upcoming 12k service? Or should I come clean, tell them its there and not to bother charging me for a new filter? I'll be taking it to a Reno dealer for the service. Unless Rentech opens up a branch, Manchester...

    Blue 182 with stripes - southbound M66

    This afternoon. I was heading north as you were on the other side of the m/way. Just after Junction 1 - the Pilsworth junction.... D.

    Call of Duty 2

    Only installed it so far - not actually tried it. From what I can recall, its the first game I've seen that has the graphics option for 'Optimise for SLi boards'. It would be interesting to see what your dual 7800GTX PCs make of this one, Lee. :cool: D.

    Trio of Clios - M66 this morning...

    First was a silver 172, then an arctic blue 182, followed by a 172 Cup - all within about a mile of each other... Approx 8.10am this morning - all heading south towards Bury. Anyone? D.

    Wrc 182

    ..... not quite - but the amount of shite on it could suggest other wise... Come rain, hail, tornados, snow, anything - I'll be washing it tomorrow.... D.

    Civilization 4

    All I can say is that if you're a fan of any of the previous three games - you need to get this. They've done a massive overhaul on the graphics engine (not that the screenies below prove that much) and the sound effects and music are fantastic. The AI players are a lot more devious now and...

    Classic games

    Basically ripped from the other post regarding ppl's thoughts on the Champ Man/FM series.... What do people fondly remember from their old computer/console days? Mine include Buggy Boy, Beach Head, The Sentinel, Elite, Dungeon Master and that 9 month spell that was spent on Wasteland on the...

    Battlefield 2 online

    Anyone go on this? Usually on for a bit at weekends. Would be good to team up with some CS members rather than complete strangers..... :cool: D.

    172 Cup - Hilda Street, Heywood....

    Spotted it a few times around there. Anyone on here? I think it's a '53 plate... D.

    R88* CUP - yesterday afternoon, Liverpool

    Heard you before I saw you m8! :) Quite a beefy zorst on that... 172 Cup - CS sticker in the rear window, outside John Moore's Uni in Liverpool. You wouldn't have seen me - I was in a black A4 in the middle lane... D.

    Should Reno have kept the same design?

    The more I see of the valvers and the Willys with their off-set bonnet 'bulge' - the more I think they look great. It's a shame they didn't do something similar on the 182 - after all, the engine itself is still off-set to one side. Probably some aero-dynamic or NCAP safety reasoning as to why...

    172 Cup - centre of Ashton-under-Lyne

    You came down Oldham Road and I was at the lights, next to the baths. You looked at me and I let on. Didn't see a CS sticker - but your car was a damn-sight cleaner than mine! ;) This was Saturday afternoon - approx 2pm... D.

    Redex, etc - any use

    What's the consensus on things like injector cleaning additives and stuff? Are they and engine placebo, doing feck all for you other than draining your wallet? D.

    Quite a few RS's - Liverpool JM Uni area

    Saw quite a few over the course of yesterday and today. A great looking 172 Cup with black alloys too. Of the ones I saw, none appeared to have a CS sticker though.... :( D

    Engine techie question.....

    What's the relationship between the number of cylinders and CCs? Why do some manufacturers make a small V6 - like the 1.8 found in the MX3 and others make large 4-pots like the 3.0litre in the Porsche 968? Would it be likely that Reno would have ever considered a 3.0litre, 4-cyl in the V6...

    182 wipers - erm, going ga-ga...

    Got in the car this morning and used the wipers a bit (never a good place to park is it, under trees?). They worked fine as normal, then a few streaks ran down the screen, so I put the wipers on again to clear it. Nothing - either on intermittent or full. I tried the washer jets and just got...
