  1. Friend of mine is currently building a B20 engined Dc2 Teg. Block came from a Crv i think.

    I thinks hes just tippled over the £10,000 mark building the engine, going ot be seriously quick N/a Teg!

    Needs a K20a in it. 10k could build a 270+ NA car easily or even a buddyclub custom engine rebuild and you're looking at 300+ NA for under or around 10k. :D :D

  2. The only way they would find out is if you crash and the police get involved.... correct me if im wrong.

    Looking at a mk 1 / 2 / 3 fiesta :) in black

    Cheeky i know but how much was insurance on your first car ?

    Unfortunately I can't say this without causing offence.

    You are an idiot.

    The reason insurance is so high is because of shit like that. You'll complain insurance is horribly expensive and then you'll do exactly the thing that increases it.

    Buy something cheap, shit and slow. Do it and then after a year you'll open up a world of interesting cars.

    that is my advice whether you take it or not.

    oh and cost.

    1st car was a Clio 1.2 - £650 TPFT bought for £600.

  3. That was my initial thought, that the team used that minor collision/rub as an opportunity to call rubens in for a tyre stop. Rubens was still driving at full speed after hamilton passed him and clearly showing no indication from his driving that he need to pit. Why didnt rubens radio in to the team instead of the other way round? Im still happy for jenson either way.

    I'll say it again, Rubens position at the time of the puncture would still have allowed Jenson to win the WDC. Rubens having to pit made no difference to that. All it did was mean Rubens is now a couple of points behind Vettel going into the last race so Rubens has to work harder and finish better to achieve 2nd in the WDC. Brawn took no advantage to either driver by bringing Rubens in unnecessarily, in fact it would've been bloody stupid given anything can happen even in the last few laps.

    He did, we just didn't hear it. He complained about vibrations and they radioed back saying that was the cause. You ever heard of slow punctures? Jeez... Always a conspiracy theorist.

    Nicely done Jenson.

    Rubens complained about the vibrations from his front right tyre (iirc) prior to Hamilton clipping him. The team then radioed a few corners in to the lap to inform him of the puncture seemingly caused by Lewis.

  4. even though the brawn team tactically brought Rubens in for an extra tyre stop he didn't need :o , all in the name of ensuring the business status i guess...

    Well unless i missed it, i certainly saw no visible indication that rubens tyre was deflating or having to slow down after that crazy inside pass by hamilton down the main straight....

    Firstly Rubens got a puncture from Hamiltons undertake when Lewis clipped Rubens rear tyre. In addition to that the positions at the time Rubens had to go to the pits meant Jenson was world drivers champion anyway, Rubens puncture and subsequent pit stop were just an unfortunate blow to his race and his bid for 2nd in the championship.

    additional.

    To be fair, you heard a radio call telling Rubens to pit because of a puncture which is odd. I'm fairly sure as an F1 driver, he'd know he had a puncture and would be on the radio telling his team to get ready to change a wheel, not the other way round.

    It's possible Rubens had radioed to ask if there was a problem because he felt there may be an issue but the sensors to tell the drivers crew the tyre pressures are far more sensitive than Rubens could have been after only a couple of corners, they'd have known almost immediately that pressures were dropping.

  5. Interesting is the parallel between crustaceans and homosexuality. God says himself that he doesn't like homosexuality, and crabs and prawns either. Many people don't like seafood, and many are repulsed at the idea of homosexuality. This seems to put God in the category of 'many people' in that he has opinions, dislikes, in my version it even says 'God hates that' [homosexuality]. But if he says eating crustaceans is an abomination, and everything indicates it is nothing of the sort, does the same go for homosexuality? I don't really see how you can logically refute one and not the other, it is disregarding the bible just as much as refuting them both.

    If God is the only truely perfect entity and we wrote the Bible as a reflection of Gods words and we as humans are imperfect; does that mean that the Bible is fallible?

  6. No. Read my other post no more pics.

    Mouse mainly but I have used a tablet before but couldn't get to grips with it. At least someone appreciates my work.

    Which tablet have you used? I've found some are easy to get on with and some feel terrible!

  7. I don't have a main "style" as you can see. But if you mean that I can't incorporate colour into my work then you are mistaken. I make the colour of the car match the background ( Hence the orange car had an orange background , the skyline had a white background and so on). I don't see how I have to prove myself to you. I know it is my work and I'm no longer going to show up "proof" of my work or any other work you would like to see, just so I get other peoples approval.

    Those pics look pretty good, a lot of work gone in. Quite like the Nissan GTR convertible. Do you use a tablet or just mouse?

  8. Cheddar Biscuits (the large ones not the mini cheddars) with burger relish or tomato purée spread on then some pepper, ham/meat of choice then cheese to top off and microwave till the cheese melts (30 seconds maybe).

    Mini Pizza courtesy of MBUK about 4 years ago :D.

  9. Mine's built it from scratch, nothing amazing just a normal home build machine with some lights and too many fans!

    XFX motherboard.

    AMD64 x2 5600 CPU with Huge Zalman cooler.

    2GB Corsair Matched Pair RAM

    ATI 256mb X1950 gfx card (bit of a bottleneck in the system)

    Sound Blaster X-Fi Sound Card

    SATA HDD + numerous IDE external drives.

    PC World PSU!

    All inside an ATX case with window and front lights.

    2 UV lights inside.

    2 fan/temp controllers in front.

    Saitek Gamers Keyboard & Razer Diamondback mouse.

  10. They have been producing 10+mp phones for a while now, just taking a while to land on our shores.

    Unfortunately, as has been stated in this thread already, obsession with mp doesn't mean good photos. Would be nice when they manage to get it right though, a high quality compact and phone would be useful when I don't/can't take my SLR places.
