    Hey everyone :)

    Thanks everyone for the warm welcome 🙂 Not tried AC:C yet but I've read that it beats PC2 in the way the cars handle and feel. I like the graphics from PC2, the force feedback from rFactor and the handling from Assetto lol. Most of my work is purely aluminium bodies for 1930's race cars usually MG's, comes in a bare chassis and goes away an un-painted car, ready for the customer to paint and trim etc. Every now and then we'll take on or do our own full build. The Maserati is a 300s actually built on a Maserati chassis, this was my boss's personal car and also my favorite lol, the polished Jaguar D type was a fun little car, although between that and the polished hot-rod I decided i'm never going to polish another car again. I spent 6 months polishing that hot-rod! Going from an 80 grit sand paper all the way to 1200 and then 3 different pastes haha. The dark grey car was a Jaguar XK150 which was built into a made up special, this was our most recent full build. The last picture is my workshop at the moment, Got a 1930's MG Q Type (full build, painted, ready to drive away) an MGA Special in the background and another 1930's MG Special to the right 🙂 All them nice cars and i'm working on a pair of rusty 1950's Alfa Zegato seats haha. There's some more pictures of the Jaguar and more of a detailed look from the dealer that bought it from us Here and a better write up and detailed shots of the Maserati (same dealer) Here This is an AC Cobra with a bespoke gulwing roof, I was just starting out when my uncle/boss was starting this one (same dealer) lol Here These 3 and the unfinished MGA Special were my uncles personal cars purely made to sell, the dealer has seen the MGA so maybe he'll have that as well haha

  6. Titanfall 2 is rumoured to be one of the games for next month. If this is the case then everybody needs to download it as both the campaign and MP are utterly brilliant. *edit* Titanfall 2 has been confirmed now. Via the FG App

    Hey everyone :)

    I did join the WoW server although choosing a class is a pain. I’m thinking Mage (I read there are way too many mages) because of the AoE and I like to grind and farm, or a Huntard, any advice is welcome! I can talk cars and motors all day haha, at the moment I’m just driving a Mini Cooper S and I have an SV650 project bike. I’m saving up for a classic Subaru RB5 or RA at the moment as it’s been my dream car since I first heard the boxer rumble! I change cars and bikes like I change my pants tho! (Every 6 months! Haha) here’s a few of my past toys. p.s the video from that last picture is very much gone haha. I remember thinking... can’t be that deep! Little did I know it was an obstacle for tanks lol

  12. Anyone played this before? It’s a comedy physics sandbox where you can create your own battles using a range of whacky units with some hilarious results. Really nice art style and you can freecam the fights and get really close to the action. Currently in early access but apparently there is lots of content already including a campaign as well as custom battles. 96% positive ratings and growing massively in popularity. Looks great fun for all ages and I may have to pick this up tomorrow!

    Hey everyone :)

    Hey everyone, So, introduce myself.... Well my name is Tom, I've been gaming since dial-up (that makes me feel old! i'm talking 28.8k and when someone phoned the house the internet turned off!) Started by playing mmorpg's like Legends of Mir, Myth of Soma, Darkeden (2d games haha) and that's when I found my first ever forums, called Leetnetwork. The best bunch of assholes I've ever met lol and coming back to PC gaming I found there's not many community forums out there. "Back in my day" lol forums were the main way of meeting other gamers then adding them on msn messenger :P as a community we helped each other, I learnt Photoshop through them, owned and hosted servers etc. I found that's what I missed the most, I'll be honest I missed out on Twitch, Discord, Mixer and all that stuff so I'm a tiny bit lost! I've been playing on xbox one for a while now and haven't had a gaming PC for over 10 years, so decided to treat myself in the black Friday sales! Built my new PC last night :D Sadly I only have 1 other "PC Friend" lol so i'm hoping to meet some new ones here! Games i'm hoping to play are, Modern Warfare, WoW Classic, Battlefield series, Arma, Escape Takerov maybe a bit of minecraft :P Also love a bit of VR sim racing, iRacing, Assetto Corsa, Project Cars etc. I've been doing some research into streaming, dunno if anyone on here does it? I enjoy watching it and playing in a group looks so much more fun! I've been doing some signing up on various platforms (someone told me I could play my Xbox digital games on PC) was very annoyed when I found out I couldn't! So here are some of my ID's Steam : iimpulse Discord (no idea how it works) : Impulse#2386 Blizzard : Impulse#2548 Looking forward to chatting to you lot, having some fun games! Impulse P.S Ignore the horrible wiring, I just wanted to get it done haha.

    Hey everyone :)

    Bet you're kicking yourself for selling that E46! Honestly your posts are basically me in another life. If I didn't life in London where stuff like that is either stolen / vandalized/ battered by bingo bints in car parks, or require £lol to either insure it for on-street parking or pay £lol for off street parking, I'd be all over that. Anyway. Cooper S, R53? R56? F56? We drive a Mini, an old one, bought it for my wife a few years ago and she loves it, probably gonna upgrade it next year, seriously considering a Countryman Cooper S having driven one, we want the extra space and it's the only SUV-ish car that still has that Mini funkiness to it. A contender was the 500x but it feels bargain bin compared to the Mini. Also I hope god has forgiven you for putting those blue wheels on that 987 or you're gonna have a bad time in hell. As for class, I'm a priest, @J&B is a warrior, @Middle Class Caveman is a rogue, @Misneach_ is a pally, and @GazzaGarratt is probably gonna be a mage, so prolly huntard or lock? Up to you.

  19. I need to take a week off work and just dedicate it to campaigns. I could probably count on one hand the amount of campaigns I've done in my life, in fact here are a few off the top of my head: Half Life games Wolfenstein (the one Leigh bought me, New Order?) The STALKER games (Leigh still needs to play these, in fact I need to start forcing him to play them, only to hear him shit himself in the scarier areas of the zone) Horizon: Zero Dawn Bulletstorm The Warcraft games Starcraft games Yes, I'm a Blizzard fanboi, bite me. Never finished a corrodooty ever. Every time I start a campaign my mates are all playing MP and I hear them lolling and giggling and having a gay old time so I quit the campaign for a session of moaning and ranting instead, golden times. I need to do this Corrodooty campaign though, and Tittenfell 2. Any other recommendations?

  20. Depends on what you're asking for. If for visa purposes, you can apply for a Shengen Visa (many countries issue these by default, but be sure to check). With a Shengen visa you can travel anywhere in the EU provided: 1: The visa is valid. 2: The issuing country is the first country you visit from outside the EU. So if Spain issues the visa, you MUST land in Spain is the first port from the States, any other country will reject you. If however it's for time purposes, I'd find a way to work around it. The queues at these airports are generally very quick, my wife is on an African passport and if she can get through customs in less than 30 mins, I'm sure you guys can too. Even if it's an hour, the ability to see a whole different country for only an hour of your time is well worth it, especially given the distance you guys are travelling and the costs involved. Basically ask yourself this: When will you guys get this opportunity again? Suck it up buttercup, a few days in Lisbon is a fantastic opportunity. Make it happen chief.

    Hey everyone :)

    Oh my, I think I just did a little sex wee, that's some seriously handsome automotive porn there young man! Welcome to the forum, we're the Old Guarde here, whilst all the cool kids are Twittering and Toktikki'ing and Dicsording we're still soldiering on with forums as they're the best way to communicate without having to be the center of attention all the time. If you're going to give WoW Classic a go, make sure you join on Nethergarde Keep (Alliance side) so you can roll with us. We're only a handful at the moment but it's great fun. We're slowly convincing all the console plebs to join us, just takes time as they are quite resistant.

  22. I played Titanfall 2 earlier this year and the campaign is amazing! Respawn are the only consistent and top quality developer that EA has.

  23. Dunno, I asked Matty last night to post in here but naturally he just ignored me. @Misneach_ answer the question dammit! Also, seeing as @J&B doesn't know how to post and instead reported me for spamming, I'll post his report here so we can all see his intended reply to this thread:

  24. I’ll keep an eye out for you then as I’m planning on going next year again. If you’re taking your camera a few pointers; - Get the stand pass with your ticket. If you’re going for the full 4 day, being able to sit down is nice and they’ve got covers so even better if it’s raining. They are also tiered so gives you some height to see over the barriers. - To that end, I’d recommend a long lens if you have one. I think all my actual hill climb photos were with my 55-300mm lens. Assuming it is the same as this year, the best places I found for photos was (starting at the bottom of the hill) - On the inside of the corner opposite Hill Pavillion. - In the Park Grandstands opposite the house or anywhere along the barrier up to the bridge. - Molecombe corner grandstands. - Anywhere after the flint wall as you walk up to the rally stage. - You can get some nice shots up by the top paddock too as the cars park up there. Plus all the rally car pits are up there to look around.

  26. Free shit = good Happy to see stuff added so quickly after launch and no matter what they add, so long as it stays free then I'm happy

  27. I'm happy they're paying more attention to Spec Ops, it was the only real disappointment for me at launch. Wish they'd poll the players if they do old maps and ask us what we'd like. Kowloon and Favela for me.

  28. Both Crash and Vacant we had to pay for back in MW2 with Stimulus and Resurgence. I can't quite remember the reception back then but I think people were just happy to have new maps regardless on top of what was a hugely popular game at the time. I'm pretty tired of Vacant after playing it in COD4, MW2 and MWR plus 725's are going to be rife on there! Crash is decent but I would've preferred Afghan and Terminal along with Highrise as those have only had remakes in Infinite Warfare which barely anyone got to experience. If it's a choice between more shite new maps or proven old maps, I'd happily go with the latter though! Recycled shite was more unacceptable in Treyarch games as people had to pay for it blind.

  29. I'm happy they are adding some stuff, old maps or whatever. I will still be happy to play them. Crash was already a MW2 free DLC map, obviously featured in COD4 originally. And yeah shipment/vacant. I want some MW3 maps also. Bootleg, Arkaden, Underground. Hell any of them other MW3 maps tbh. They are presenting it in a "Wow" fashion. Free! Etc. Totally agree with James yet again. Still is very welcoming, would rather play some of them older maps than some of the current.

    Haha derp, completely missed that you’re stateside. Though I didn’t know Onevia’s were stock over there - learn something new every day 🙂 Styling wise, it’s totally subjective and as long as you like it then that’s all that matters.

    Hey everyone :)

    Welcome aboard! I too miss having a forum to call home. Even though this isn't the most active forum, it feels the most at home I've felt in a long time. I think you'll find that this place will be worth the stay!

    Well I'm in the USA! Onevias are actually stock. We never got an s13 with a Silvia front. The ka24 comes in them stock over here too, but NA. As for the current state it's in, I only recently started working on it again and I'm near the end. I have some little things to do and leaks to seal, I'm going bigger injectors after all(740cc) and going to aim for around 260-270whp which is around 350 crank. Should be a fun and nice reliable set up. As far as the 'jdm scene', I guess there's a bunch of different categories of that. This is more styled after the Japanese street style scene(drifting). I absolutely can't stand the Japanese car show nerds. My car looks like a shitbox and theirs being finished look even worse. /rant

    Hey everyone :)

    Friend 👍 😆 Welcome to the forum, there’s not enough racers on this forum so nice to gain another one. What set up do you have for your sim racing? Any particular class you like racing? We have a GT Sport time trial generally ticking over for a bit of fun. Though PC wise I know Phil and I have Project Cars 2 so maybe we get some racing done. I don’t know if Phil has any other pc sims though I’ve also got AC, LFS and R3. I’ve got an iRacing account too but no active subscription at the moment. We also do have a Minecraft server running. Currently we have it running the Sky Factory 3 mod pack. We have a section on it further down though know I’m remembering that our server IP address changed and I don’t think I’ve ever updated the thread - oops. If you want to join though, drop me your name and I can whitelist you.
