I did let off, then realised I could make contact so went for it. I don't think it was flat out either. buxtongn.zip

Fair enough. Wasn't my intention to ruin either of your races, to be honest I never expected to get anywhere near either of you but you both just took your normal lines into the bend and I really wanted to win.

Well I really enjoyed tonight even though i got spun a fair bit. Obviously I pi**ed a couple of people off in the GN.. Feel free to lodge a complaint or whatever, quite happy for the admins to decide if it was unacceptable and to take whatever penalty. Last race, last bend, last corner, neither of you took any avoiding action and I'd driven my arse off to get into 3rd!

Superb Kruiz, great job. I didn't realise I was seen as a hard hitter, its not something I set out to do at the start of a race so sorry if I've annoyed anyone!

Memory(RAM) 1709GB - are you sure? NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 430 (Microsoft Corperation WDDM) - again, this is (or is at least the equivalent to) an onboard graphics card. Waste of time.

A Sempron 2000 processor isn't very fast I'm afraid (4+ years old), and the fact you only have 448mb available means you don't have a real graphics card, but one that uses the main computer processor. Also, your motherboard has an AGP slot, not PCI Express which means you are very limited to the graphics cards you can buy to fit into the computer. By the time you've upgraded the parts to a decent spec you might as well have bought a new computer.

I got back home at 8.20, was logged into chat at 8.30 then rfactor took ages to load so I was last into the server for heat 1. Did half a lap practice before the race started, meaning I didn't actually know where turns 3 and 4 were . Was pretty crap in the first heat, I either braked miles too late and ran onto the grass, or braked too early and got punted onto the grass each time. Then spike pulled out onto the straight and that was my suspension knackered. Decided to start at the back for heat 2 where I started to get to grips with the track and got into a decent position until Aub hit me fair and square hard onto the grass after a good battle. Heat 3 I got a decent run and made it to 3rd. Suspension broke again in the final, then had another good race in the GN, I lost ground to Aub but was slowly catching him and was getting ready to put him into the pits when he hit the kerb and I drove under him with about 8 feet to spare.

Matthew #8 please. I might miss heat 1, if I'm not in chat just start without me.

I chose Mick Harris cos I raced as him in last years winter series and I don't want to get confused

Mick harris for both if possible, ta.

I bought the £50 PNY 256mb 8800 hutch linked to from overclockers, got everything set to max at 1280x1024 and it's fine.

pfft i havent missed that many meetings have i!? Nice writeup though.

I hope I'm wrong too, but I get the impression everyone's passwords have been stored in plain text, unencrypted somewhere?

Yeah cos that would make a great discussion forum wouldn't it, one big circle jerk.

No it's not ok, but it happens to hundreds of people each day, it's an accepted risk of using Hotmail (and any other free email service, people should seriously consider if using a FREE email service for important stuff is a wise idea...) Do a google for "hacked hotmail" and you'll find thousands of people who've had the same thing happen to them, and load of video guides about how to do it. It's part and parcel of using a free, popular email service I'm afraid.

Whatever, waste your money consulting solicitors if you must. As soon as you mention Hotmail and a computer game account they'll struggle to keep a straight face.

I'm guessing that anyone stupid enough to try and blackmail someone over a computer game (dear oh dear) probably isn't old enough to be sued anyway. Be better off getting in touch with mummy and daddy, see if they can get the computer taken away for a while. I've been playing games over the Internet since 1998 and there have always been script kiddies like this in every game. There always will be, it's nothing new. Admins: just change your passwords and carry on, you're wasting your own time stressing about it. Put it all in perspective, does it really matter....?

Nice job all involved. Due to a change of plan I should be around this evening, do I just wait in chat to see if I scrape onto the grid? Drumb

I drove slowly in all 4 races, the only difference being in the final where everyone magically crashed in front and behind me, I barely touched a car all race

The clue is in the name - Mobility. It's a laptop, so you're going to struggle.

Well done Hutch. I got spun in every race except one heat, but still really enjoyed it as I was actually close to the pace!

Superb, thanks Rikard (and Drum, obviously)

Any ideas where this file has gone??

Sorry, change of plan, cancel my booking please.
