  1. LOL, yep... that's a shadow of people moving on the outside of the house.
  2. Still like the first one better but this has some good coordination with a C130 and a bike.

    Octane You Use??

  4. For sure Dillon, we got to meet at the Suzuka or Fuji expert class so we can race for more than 2 laps. Let's hook up again this weekend and see if we can coordinate. Don, I think you and I had an issue because my system time and date was wrong.
  5. If there is a patch to do that, this game will be that much better. December 1 is the release date for GT-5 and it looks like they are including those features. Some great cars and tracks. Should be exiting. Don, I'll look around as well and see if the patch can be had now. If it's online, we'll find it For now, some trailers of the full version.
  6. Nice game. I'll give a go with the trial version. GT-5 is tough to coordinate with friends. Tried with Don and Dillon and only managed one race with Dillon. Too much effort for the resulting fun Another great simulator is RFactor http://www.rfactor.net Sadly this game requires a bit of processing power but it's a lot of fun and I think the physics are very good. I've seen bunch of guys from GB, AU and FR racing as a group in GT-5. Need to figure out the details and see if there is a simpler way for friends to meet online. Dillon, good race mate, albeit a short one
  7. Dillon and Don, do you know if there is a way to set-up a racing league within GT-5 for just the AL members? I spent a little time browsing the official GT-5 site with not much luck.
  8. The garage is packed full with every car that can be bought Any particular track you guys are fund of?
  9. If we do this right, peer pressure might prevail
  10. What do you boys think about it? May be a little challenging logistically being that we are spread out throughout the world with different time zones. If we can iron out the details and get consensus on one day a week, possibly on a weekend, to meet online and have few friendly races. My initial thought is for us to pick a track and meet there and have at it. We can decide on a point system for 1st, 2nd & 3rd relative to AL members. At the end of the racing season, which we can also decide on how long, and have an award for the top 3. The awards can be what ever we feel comfortable with. If you're interested, post up your gamer tag and a time that will work for you [sL time]. We can tally up the totals in few days and see if this is feasible. That said, my PS3 tag is DDRRIIFFTT
  11. I remember seeing this car at www.Imfullofkaka.com
  12. Bugatti, Funeral service is changed again to a different location and date. As of right now [and this may still change, again] the viewing is held at the Staples Center in Downtown Los Angeles on July 7th. xXx, The whole thing is turning into a circus now. This will unfold for the next 5-6 moths and some scary stuff will come to light given what has been reported so far.
  13. Way to go man. Congrats.
  14. Michael only owns a small part of Never Land Ranch. With his passing, everything Michael related have gone up in price. He also owns a part of Beatles and couple of other originals. Don't forget the royalty he's receiving from merchandise as well as his music. To that end, he has some songs that are not released yet which I suspect will be released soon. When you combine all of that with his material possessions, he will have more than enough to pay off his debts and still have a good chunk of change left. It'll take some time to sort things out and untangle everything to get a clear picture of his financial situation. When all of this is said and done, I suspect that he'll be worth somewhere in the $500-600 million or more. I also just heard a report that 3 of his albums now occupy the top 3 spots.
  15. Reports are that there will be a public viewing on Friday and the funeral is on Sunday. No location is announced yet. EDIT: Michael Jackson's body will be taken to Neverland Ranch in California for a public viewing on Friday, CNN has learned. Rumor is that he is $400 Mil in the negative. That said, his estate is still worth lot lot more if you're to include future earnings.
  16. I have to vote for Truth in 24, though it's not a movie it's well worth the time. http://www.truthin24.com/
  17. Most likely it'll be in LA somewhere but they haven't announce the details yet.
  18. Or just put a piece of electrical tape over the light
  19. The body hasn't been released by the Coroner to the funeral home yet. Most recent news is that a funeral home has not yet been identified. Lots of people are gathering at his star on the Walk of Fame, his home where he was when this happened, and at the old house in Encino. There is an investigation into the type of drugs that was given to him by the doctors. This could be very similar to Anna Nicole Smith incident.
  20. hahaha yeah... Poor guy
  21. Looks a lot like a catalytic converter overheat warning light. If it's a legitimate cat overheat issue you may have an EFI problem upstream. Cats generally overheat if there is unburnt fuel that ignite inside the cat overheating it. Check your O2 sensor(s) and coolant temp sensor. If you can get a hold of another gauge cluster you can easily identify if the problem is a bad electrical connection. Pin B7 on the diagram.
  22. E-bay is already swamped with memorabilia asking for some outrages prices for them. Vultures are out in force.

  24. Biggest culprit would be a stuck open Thermostat valve. The whole purpose of the Thermostat is to regulate engine temperature. As such, if the valve is stuck open, it will not allow the engine to be brought up to temperature quickly assuming your gauge is functioning properly. chamindaa, your problem could be the opposite of the above assuming the rest of your cooling system is free of foreign matter buildup. Inspect the cooling system to make sure no hard water build up is present. Inspect the Thermostat for proper function. Lastly, in SL you don't need the 50/50 coolant to water ratio. You can go to 80/20 in favor of more water than coolant . You only need enough coolant to lubricate the water pump. Water does a much better job of conducting heat than coolant. 50/50 ratio is critical only if the environment the vehicle operate is cold, as in freezing temperatures. Good luck to both of you.
