    You're going to feel a right tit when I tell you he used it as a kennel for two f**king great Estrela Mountain Dogs.

    They’re so small too. They’re smaller than a mk3 Focus parked side by side.

    I really love the Impreza wagons, but it has to be a classic for me. My mate’s STI was awesome.

    They’re really on a roll with the later cars. V90, XC90, S80, all look fantastic.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Oh Overclockers you cocktease. No sooner had I phoned them this morning, then this little beauty pops into my inbox. 'let me just check... yeah everything's in stock now so your order will be dispatched this afternoon' WUT

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Phoned OCUK to find out what was happening with the wheel. The base was in stock but the wheel was on preorder. Turns out they won't ship the base before the wheel comes in as it's all one order, and because I reordered, I went to the back of the preorder list for the wheel so have to wait for...

    Overclockers UK. Moza direct wanted £130 in postage! To be fair, the actual steering wheel is on preorder but I’m expecting the base soon. A lot of people say that 20+nm is a waste of money and that 12-15 is about right, so I think the R12 is the one to go for, if you’re willing to spend the extra.

    Cars are snitches now.

    A lot of telematics companies geofence permanent tracks tbf. But temporary venues, closed roads, car parks, still do, and there’s no guarantee that they geofence anything at all especially when you don’t even know it’s happening. The manufacturers don’t necessarily care if the data is exact...

    Cars are snitches now.

    Telematics is absolutely nothing new. Built into the car, reporting to most insurers and turned on without your knowledge, that's the new bit. We have telematics too in the work vans but to say it's ropey is an understatement. I've seen someone hit 60 in a 20 in a work van once and nothing was...

    Cars are snitches now.

    Interesting tidbit of news. https://www.motortrend.com/news/data-sharing-insurers-gm-onstar-smart-driver-app/ So, you buy a car, the dealer activates Smart Driver without your knowledge because they get a kickback for signing you up to it. Smart Driver is a service that, on the face of it...

    Cancelled the Moza R9 preorder. Going for the R12 instead. Apparently doesn’t suffer the same overheating issue that some R9s have had, obviously has more peak torque but also has better detail throughout. Will still go with the ES wheel though.

    I’ve run an OLED as a monitor for years 🤷🏻‍♂️ Just don’t have stuff always in the same place/sat there forever and use the dimming features for when you forget. No sign of any burn in yet.

    I've had a moment of weakness. A Moza R9 V2 and ES wheel are on preorder from OCUK. Would have bought direct but they wanted £130 in shipping. I'll keep using the Logitech shifter and (modified with a trubrake) pedals though for now. Been wanting to go DD forever and was going to go CSL DD but...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Needed to update my computer setup as my old Sidewinder keyboard was on the edge of losing its cable and the scroll wheel on my mouse was going on the blink. Ended up going for a Keychron K10 Pro for the keyboard and M3 for the mouse, very happy with both. Very tempted to get a Moza R9 with...

    cs_rich's Fiesta ST3

    22psi of boost doesn’t sound too wild, but it’s unlikely that the engine would keep making more boost if the MAP sensor were really maxing out, so it’s probably how you’re reading it, or it’s hit a target boost pressure. 0.78x14.7=11.46 AFR which tbh is fairly normal for a boosted engine. When...

    Pretending to be a Rally Driver (Snetterton Stages 2024)

    Yeah, you have to drive them like an RWD, but the small amount of power going to the front helps drag it to point where you want the angle to be. Endless fun. Yeah that’s basically what I was expecting tbh. Cocking about in the mud with a license at the end. Forest Experience was based at Sweet...

    Pretending to be a Rally Driver (Snetterton Stages 2024)

    Great writeup. Imprezas with DCCD are so much fun especially when set up for being tail happy, but are nothing like what most people expect from AWD. I presume you have done your BARS and got your MSUK stage license? I was planning on doing mine pre-covid as it’s something I’d love to do one...
