    56.209 with a pad and auto box' so far. Pathetic. Just cannot steer for s**t with a pad!

    Old Games Collections.

    Some of the PC games I dug out over the weekend. Definitely an era never to be repeated - certainly in a mainstream way, anyway. The packaging, the manuals, the accessories - really only matched by the high-end specialist collections these days. One of the downsides with the market trends of...

    Goodyear eagle F1's for track??

    Wish I'd done the same with the Evo at Anglesey tbh. Rather than having four of those paddle-steamer sized 18s rotating with a shitload of weight, I bet 15s would have transformed it on track. Interestingly, the JDM Evo VI RS came with 15" steelies straight out of the factory. Arch gap galore -...

    Battlefield 1

    I think the lesson learnt here is to say b****cks to any form of bullet-drop, etc - and simply pull the trigger when the target is in the crosshairs. He hardly ever leads the target at distance either. I'm going to try the same - can't be any worse than my attempts and adding real-world effects...

    Cookie's Golf R32

    I'm thinking Amazon Instant Video or Netflix could make a series about the levels of fun you have with car ownership. I'm pretty sure you've pissed off somebody in a previous life. Or have returned from the future, thinking all electric cars are good, and now the Man-Spec cars are failing on...

    Clio V6 Replica...

    Interesting view. I'd never feel that to be honest. Those who wouldn't know, probably wouldn't even care what it was. If you're driving the genuine article, all concerns of other people's opinions and thoughts go out the window for me. They are obviously entitled to have their own views on the...

    Restored my 172 headlights today with awesome results!!

    Respect to anyone who can get decent results with the headlamps on the car, with the 3M kit. Tried it twice now and at best, the results have been 'meh'. Such a difficult light to polish consistently with a rotating drill bit on highly curved headlight. I really should remove them and do it...

    Has anyone ever seen a FWD Clio v6 swap?

    Wouldn't the standard non-RS V6 simply be too lethargic to be driven in anger? Although no VTEC, the F4R is pretty rev-happy. I would have thought the V6 would be more designed with torque in mind and for cruising on motorways. Then with the added weight over the front axle, the nimble response...

    How you get rid of a camera van ?

    So true - absolutely bang on. Usually they ride their brakes on anything resembling a downhill slant of tarmac - and my god, if a truck or a bus comes the other way, then it's an immediate drop from 21mph to 7mph. If I time it wrong on the morning commute, I can end up following a woman in her...

    Going to have a go with XBox One controller and see what I get. Will be good to simply make up an additional name to the list - no way will I threaten the top places!

    Battlefield 1

    I don't get it. As a sniper, I scope up and try to get the best shot I can. Yet this bloke is barely doing that? Some of the shots look pap and yet he still gets the result. Clearly has skill, but some of those are fluke.

    Battlefield 1

    Isn't there some solid slug upgrade for the shotguns? Supposed to make them potent in the mid-range.

    Project cars

    The 98T cracks me up - I actually managed one lap of the 'Ring without losing that thing once. Granted, my time was god-awful - but I did it! The lag on that thing is/was insane.

    Doom!

    Do you remember which part you quit on? There have been a few times where I've come close to throwing in the towel, so to speak - but I keep chipping away at it.

    Doom!

    They need to finally make and release HL2 - Episode 3!

    Doom!

    I wish I had the same feeling m8. I currently feel like I'm five pages from the end of a long novel that started out brilliantly and has increasingly lost my interest. I'm so close to seeing the end though, that it would be silly to quit now! Nothing 'grabs' me anymore with it. Secret hunting...

    Doom!

    So basically, DOOM was built from the ground up to be an online game. OR. It was play tested by gaming gods. Either way, as a single player campaign FPS it sucks root. Royally. The game requires, no, DEMANDS that you pursue unlocks. You have no choice if you want to survive. That in itself...

    Picked up the "flu" Abarth 500

    With the exception of the of the silly 500L and it's siblings, its nice to see Fiat maintaining a small, almost cute platform that is appealing. The likes of Mini have lost their way completely with the newer models - hideous, bloated, tall things that just don't appear to match the brands'...

    Sounds good! We need Oulton and Donny on there - probably the ones I know best! :)

    Clio 1.4rt 1994

    @Tibbs - Chris above is right though. You can get slow cars that are cool in their own way and people accept that. Spending hard earned on making a basic, near 23-year-old car 'sound nice' is just a waste. You might as well stick an AMG badge on the back for all the relevance it will have. As...

    Cheap M.2 drive

    No performance benefit over it's SSD sibling, but a useful capacity for the price if you have an M.2 slot free on your mobo.... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0194MV3XM/?tag=cliospnet01-21 Supplied by Scan, yet strangely is over £25 more if you buy it through them?

    Battlefield 1

    Something's definitely not 'right' with me on this game. Some of the shots I make are pure BS and others against me are just as bad. I don't think I've played a BF title where I keep scoring hit after hit with little in the way of a result. Then I can round a corner, not even attempt to scope-up...

    Camper loses it in a straight line: Would lowz have saved them?

    All the mechanical an inertial grace of a sperm whale diving off the high-board. Drifting has nothing to be scared about.

    What is it with 172 cup prices?

    I was so close to ordering mine in petrol blue. The ID Paint cost though was just too much at the time - 10% of the new car's value! I thought there were a lot less PB's made against that list above, too? I thought it was only around a dozen?

    182 to 182 cup

    I agree. Check what you've currently got fitted before spending money elsewhere. Sounds like something is past its best and simply needs replacing.
