    Engine Bling.

    Aas a finishing touch, Scutchio - I'd get a very small block of wood and wrap a piece of coarse sand-paper around it and then go over your RenaultSport lettering and lines underneath. The colour afterwards will not be a million miles from the colour of the KTR sticker on the air filter and I...

    Creaking clutch pedal

    Mine does it after a decentish journey length and in hot weather. It never creaks during the winter. I've often wondered if the LHD version of the RS Clio suffers from the same problem - what with the clutch linkage being much closer to the pedal? D.

    iOS4 software upgrade. Opinions?

    Re: OS4 software upgrade. Opinions? O2 locked 3GS for me... Pros:- Looks a bit nicer Cons:- None so far Summary:- Was it worth it? Not sure yet! D.

    Best PC racing game ATM?

    That one is a fecker! Some of my faves include the Radical SR4 252bhp version and the Fiat Abarth from GTL. That thing is brilliant around Brands - you hardly have to back off and attack most corners in a long, drawn out drift. :) Perhaps the car of the 'big hitters' that I feel most in control...

    Best PC racing game ATM?

    Well worth it for the choices of Porsche alone, imo. 'Feels' more difficult than GTR Evo too. D.

    Petrol Blue 182

    That's it. Make me feel a WHOLE lot better in not ordering Petrol Blue now.... ;) £1.2k just wasn't a viable option for me back in '04. D.

    Best PC racing game ATM?

    Well tbh, BenR on here used to consistently whup my laptimes using a 360 controller on the PC - so it certainly can be done. Either that, or I'm just shat. ;) Definitely logon to nogripracing and sign-up for free. Some of the downloads are truly superb - in particular the the GT Legends mod...

    SCUMM Virtual Machine

    Gaming genius imo - so much attention to the gameplay in such a small physical space. :) No. Because that would be naughty. Very naughty. ;) Worth it for that alone, m8. This version of DoTT even comes with the additional speech pack for it. I remember paying extra for that on two 3.5" disks...

    Best PC racing game ATM?

    A definite - or ideally a decent wheel setup for it. I've got the G25 and GTR Evo above like Krispwee - and on keyboard, it's borderline pointless and imo, quite boring. The all-or-nothing inputs make some cars crazy to control - one that springs to mind is the free download of the Porsche 935...

    GT5

    To quote the immortal Isaac Hayes......... "Daaaamn right" A much. much better way of getting it out quickly - and probably keep the fans happy at the same time. Why not release the game with 200 cars to start off with and then maybe have free DLCs with 5 cars a month in it, or something...

    Batman Asylum

    You're no doubt right. I've managed a fair few x10 combos and even got that x20 achievement when fighting those two blokes that Joker had just shot with the Titan toxin. But I never really feel like I've contributed to that combination score - more like I just fluked it than anything. I'll...

    Petrol Blue 182

    My favourite 182 colour. :approve: Always regret not stumping up the extra cash for it when I ordered mine... D.

    the williams turbo

    Lol - I bet that's a bit quick! Looks tidy too. D.

    Batman Asylum

    About 45-50% the way through I think at the moment - just at that point after where you control Joker and then end up going against the Scarecrow on the roof-tops again. Its certainly one of the most rewarding, yet frustrating games I've played in recent times. At some points, it's epic -...

    My new boost barge

    Looks awesome in that pic! :) D.

    Netbook

    Definitely pay the extra to goto 2GB - you can never (realistically) have too much memory. I'm not really up to scratch with the netbooks, but MSI has been around for donkey's years - manufacturing motherboards and rebadging a fair few graphics cards. They should know their s**t by now...

    Would you sell your clio on here?

    I would - it would be my first port of call to sell it - unless I got a superb PX on my next car. The fact is on here, many people can check and verify your threads about your car and can probably make a good judgement call on the way its been treated. It won't necessarily cover 100% of it's...

    SCUMM Virtual Machine

    Did a quick search but couldn't find any thread on it. SCUMMVM is a front-end that allow various platforms to run some of the greatest games of the last generation. As per usual, the front-end is free to download (on whichever platform you want) but the games files aren't located here. ;)...

    172 Cup going past Renault Bury this afternoon

    ....with HOOOGE dark rims on it. Surely they must rub like a mofo?! ;) D.

    172 Exclusive - Blackburn end of Grane Road this afternoon

    Let on and got a wave back. :) Anyone off here? D.

    Hai! X Yep - would have been me that. Came back later on and they had a fecking mobile speed camera via. Thankfully most people were warning traffic my side of the road to slow down. He did have a cracking position to catch 'enthusiastic' drivers, to be fair.... ;) D.

    Windows 7 upgrade

    Great advice - if you manage to get hold of no other driver, make sure its a network one. Still get caught out with that at times, then you're relying on another PC to get the driver, USB stick transfer, etc. I've personally found Win7 to be excellent at providing enough default hardware...

    Stranger things have happened. Who knows? :) D.

    GT5

    Lol - just what I was thinking. It's borderline pointless now, imo. It's been so dragged out, so over-hyped, that it will never be able to fulfill its potential. Just how many years did players cry out for Gran Turismo on the PSP? And where did that piss-drip in the ocean of expectation end up...

    Fake V6 with horrible paintjob!

    I hate snobs - but this sounds like a deserving case of Put-Down. Anyone in the Wycombe area with a real V6 that can show them how its meant to look? ;) D.

    Batman Asylum

    I was thinking of going back and demolishing a lot of those fragile walls and stuff, but I CBA to be honest! D.

    onboard sound question

    Hehehe - I know what you mean! But to be fair, the Win7 64-bit ones have been fine (for me anyway). On Vista-64? An absolute joke. Apparently Auzentech are the dogs nutts when it comes to driver support, but I've never tried one of their cards. D.

    onboard sound question

    Still worth a shot though - unless your GFX runs very hot? I've got my X-Fi sandwiched between the ATi 4890 above it and the AGEIA Physx card below it. Literally about 2mm clearance between the cards - lol. D.

    Batman Asylum

    I'll give it a go with a gamepad then. I find them brilliant for things like Street Fighter 4, but I can't aim for s**t with a 1st/3rd person view on them. D.

    onboard sound question

    You say there's no space for the PCI-E - do you have space for a standard PCI card? I'm still using my X-Fi Fatal1ty on PCI and it still handles everything I throw at it, games wise. In fact, Total War : Napoleon has the option for creating a 300MB sound cache and supports 256-channels and its...
