Yeah I know it's down to the power but the isf surely can't be 2 levels better power it's only got about 4 more horses it's weird dont you think?
 
The standard LSD of daihatsu Coupe (Premium) is all 0s .. that's why he is so slow :lol:

When you use a controller with a car that has a manual transmission the slipping of the clutch is actually the tires slipping. To see what I mean try to slowly accelerate from a stop with the car sideways on an incline. The driven wheels slip with the sound of the clutch being let out.
 
Everyone might know this but at the top gear test track,when you go past the hammerhead,instead of turning to the next corner,keep straight to the finish line,turn around when you get to the finish line,and go past it and you just won your race or finish a lap the easy way.
 
Don't know where it goes but... Oh well.. :)

Here's my story: I was hot lapping in my EVO IX at Trial Mountain, when it decided to understeer into that bump before the main straight, and obviously I crashed, but not flipped, after that I went to take some shots and I noticed a weird black line on the fornt bumper, so I zoomed in it and this is what I see:


(Also what's that carbon fibre looking thing above the bumper?)

Weird find :irked:

That"s creepy but I dont know why.
 
Bern, Switzerland. The woman is someone famous, but, I can't put the name to the face.


Also, I think that it's a trick PD employed to save their work load; rather than model in 2 genders, why not just model in one, & then have a semi-static woman, whose movements are based on the movements of the men. If she doesn't walk, you would likely not even notice the difference.

I have seen this woman also in Luzern in 2 places actually. :crazy:

Haven't tested this for a while so maybe it's been fixed already, but:
The VW Golf V's high beams are (were?) very high. In fact they don't (didn't?) illuminate the road at all, but instead you have (had?) a fantastic view of the treetops when driving at night.
 
GT5 is the worst selling full-numbered GT title. For obvious reasons.

Actually, it depends on how you count. If you count the number of sales in relation to the numbers of consoles sold, you'll find that GT5 is in fact the best selling full-numbered GT title.

Here is the top list:
GT5 - 11,6%* of PS3 sales
GT1 - 10,6% of PS/PS1 sales
GT3 - 9,9% of PS2 sales
GT2 - 9,1% of PS/PS1 sales
GT4 - 7,6% of PS2 sales

*The GT5 percentage is probably a little bit higher than above, as the GT5 sales figures are from December 2011 while the PS3 sales figures are from March 2012.

The clock strikes three. But the time is 5:10, probably in the evening, judging by the crowded trams, and the fact that GT Lola is off for the day and hanging around the square.

That's when you know you're travelling light. Guess where? ;)

Also debating to update OP because i ran into a strange glitch whilst watching a replay...after one of my opponents took a pit stop their tire wear meters startd fluctuating for a few laps, then returned to normal once the tires got worn in a bit. i don want to update because i have virtually no proof of it happening, but if i can get a hold of a camera i will load footage to youtube.

This is true, only shows in replay after a pit stop!

I would be willing to bet its trying to find a texture for the damage and pulling the wrong file.
