If you use a UPS any time you do enduros, then there is little need to worry about power problems.
You can buy a new Windows 98/Me era UPS (ones without a USB port) for next to nothing now.

Wow! That's impressive.
The most I've left mine on for is 72 hours. Unlike Xbox 360, they don't overheat!

Only 72 hours?

I think my record is somthing around 6-7 months :P

But last night, after maybe 4-5 hours of non-stop Forza, my X-box felt sooo hot...
 
Xboxes are in my humble opinion, an overrated PC with all the flaws PCs overcame years ago. But thats beside the point.
 
new update just pasted 68,000miles :D

ps2's been running for 2 weeks non-stop now!!! and it still doesnt feel warm :lol:
 
another quick update

just past 90,000 miles :D

aiming for 100,000 now i think,should be done in around a day and a half
 
I really would fear that the PS2 let me down midway through .... great job so far!

This whole thing made me think if there would be enough people willing to do the same thing except that it would be ASPECcing some 100.000 miles on Nür or Le Mans. With 20 people or so, two weeks in the summer ....

its started to run around 5-10 seconds slower but they lap timing stopped after 100hours :)
 
yo dude just some friendly advise i think you should go out and save it like every couple thousand miles just incase your ps2 crashes or something.... or better yet save it and give it a few hours break every few days..... i just cant see a ps2 going weeks with out stopping and not being affected....again just some friendly advise :sly:

its not going off till it passes 100,000 miles ;) the whole point was too see how far it could go in one go :D
 
:sly: How many more miles does it have to go?..... i cant wait to see the affects of the miles on the car...:sly:
 
nice.... on bspec and going at 3 times speed...... im going to guesstimate about 8 hours:dopey: :dopey: :sly:
 
its over!!!
after over 2 weeks of non stop bspec it has now stopped at 109,745.0miles

changes are well the standard cars is
cost-£116,650
power-507bhp
torque-53.10kgf.m

standard car with 109,745.0 miles with no oil change
power-452bhp
torque-47.92kgf.m
value-£2,916!!!!!! :eek:

you cant really tell from the pics just the car really is a really dull darkish shade of white now

and you can also really tell the difference now with performance and braking against a new M5
