I was doing 145MPH down the Central Highway on the wrong side of the road, a car pulled out.. It braked and I clipped it, I spun round onto the grass and hit the car you see on it's side.. The damage made my car undrivable, and I had to be towed to the pits.. I got in quite a bit of trouble for doing that speed, and causing damage to 3 cars, and public disorder.. There was a huge blockage after.. I was fined for doing twice the speed limit and am now under Police Caution :(

That'll teach you to speed.

Speeding grinds my gears. Especially when it's some old guy towing a horsebox down a country lane in his Range Rover doing 60mph..
 
The car after repairs..

I was reading that, Jai, and was like WTF? You're 14. Then I realized you were talking about a game :lol:
 
Captain Obviouses. I made a tweet earlier about it: To all those saying #todayisfriday: no s:censored:, really? I didn't know that.

I've seen worse online..

You could always try setting a better example - besides, more importantly, first impressions are hard to overcome no matter how hard you try, and your license plate doesn't give off a very kind first impression. It WILL change how people perceive, and thus, treat you...

I'm not sure I understand..

Don't worry Jai, you have friends here. :)
Your posting has improved a lot. It was pretty rubbish before but your putting more thought into posts now, which is great.

Oh, children in the 'play farm' at McDonalds and such grinds my gears. They scream while I'm eating my SXXL double bacon burger plus cheese meal lol.
 
So a power cut 15 laps into a 20 lap FGT race in A-Spec blacks out the house last night. That's fine, it happens when 6 heaters are running along with numerous amounts of computer equipment, but what I didn't expect was to boot up the PS3 and be told my hard drive may have corrupted for not shutting down properly.

I waited anxiously for around 10 minutes while it made it's checks and booted up. God, I nearly lost my PS3, and my GT disk is on the way out as well, it fails to get recognised by the system. Funny thing is I've hardly ever taken it out.

I hope all will stay well with my game and I triple backed up my save data just in case.

I'm not sure I understand..

I was saying that a licence plate that basically insults people whom you've never met before is liable to give off a combative stance, and people are going to think that you're a... different kind of person than you presumably are. It sends all the wrong messages - people are going to think you're some arrogant, cocky, snot-nosed, self-obsessed kid with nothing better to do than to troll people... over the internet. (Obviously you don't fit that description, but if I raced you online and had never seen you before I would most likely think something along those lines.)

Not trying to be cross - just trying to give some helpful insight! 👍

1 hour a week? Why is this?

Because my parents say school work is more important,which I can understand,but I'm usually done by Saturday afternoon so limiting it to half an hour on Sunday is annoying.

Maybe they are trying to warn you that that is one unhealthy meal! :lol:

Weird. For me, if I play more GT5, I do better on my schoolwork. It's very relaxing and is one of the few joys in my life.

Damaged Packaging and parcels!

Who's with me on this?!

I am. My mum's present arrived from Amazon today and it took me about 5 minutes of shouting to open the packaging. :grumpy:

:lol:. I hate packaging on games. Half the time I can't get the plastic wrap off... :grumpy:

Sounds like scissors would be of great help to you.

Well they were in the kitchen and I was in the living room, and that was just too far...
