Reading the comments apparently it was pilot error not mechanical failure. He backed off the throttle when he thought he was repositioning the exhaust nozzles. Realized his mistake, then messed up correcting it and made it worse. Sadder than losing a fully functional plane - this guy's military flight days are over. Thats a career ending mistake right there.

That would be every BMW ever made for the past 6 years.

Hey Brian, Dumb question - Can you dyno bikes?

Please say you're not putting DIAMOND PLATE in your dash. Unless its a truck, then thats cool.

Wait - he put in a low compression motor AFTER selling his supercharger? Huh?

Fixed it for you

Amazing what actually posting numbers will do for you, huh? welcome to the board pbsracerx

As long as he doesn't ask me to "Gimme a little sugar, baby."

sallow? graemlins/wtf.gif "No word on whether Campbell will have a role in the update." Um, Bruce Campbell better have a frigging role in it! As in ASH!

By the way, just read that AMD cpus apparently are kicking the crap out of Intel's offerings when running HL2.

Here's where I went: ftp://ftp.cise.ufl.edu/pub/mirrors/eclipse/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.0.1-200409161125/ Once there download the eclipse-platform-SDK-3.0.1-win32.zip You can probably take it from there. One note about the Eclipse project - they are making new builds continually. The builds, or "drops", with an R in the front are the stable, "end user release" releases. You want those - the other ones are more raw, though newer, haven't been thru full testing.

I love using CR for this stuff. So far I've ended up with some good resumes.... Anyhow, I've got another position opening up in the post-Christmas timeframe. Visual Studio .net C# developer. Lower level position but not entry level, must have a couple years under your belt in development, though not all need have been in C# (along the lines of Java, forte, C++ experience prior to it). Contract position, very good rate, STRONG opportunity for coming on salary in March. And again no I'm not a recruiter - this is my own project thats ramping up, you'll be working for me directly on site like the other two positions. [ 18.

Bucks351 - load new video drivers.

Drifting only exists here because kids did it on GranTurismo before they turned 16.

no doubt - lol - one day out and CRACKED. rofl

Alot of the new owners (at least around Dublin) also think they're alot quicker than they are just stock. And that amuses me to no end, but I'm not complaining! -> Always makes my day to ruin someone elses, ya know?

OUCH!

I dunno - it doesnt seem to be taxing my system anywhere NEAR what Doom3 did. And they REALLY got the facial expressions and lip sync down pat. Its really impressive. Needs camera bob, louder footfalls for your own feet, and a real difference between walk and run.

Weight - I'd ad a law thet in ordar to post on a forim you'd need to lern how two fukking spel.

Seeing as this is a car forum I don't see anything wrong with looking at the "trivial" car laws. Front plate law - gone.

Haven't tried. I don't think it hits the CD when you play. But good luck trying to use the same CD to install it on more than one computer - Steam seems to have it locked down. You can play "offline mode" not connected to the internet once you've set up a steam account (which I've done though it took hours), then entered your CD key into valve's db over the internet(which I haven't done yet, their servers are getting pounded). There doesn't seem to be local encryption - they're probably tracking keys on their own server. Nice model for foiling pirates, even if it sucks ass for convenience. Regardless someone will crack it eventually. I'm not sure if in offline mode you need the physical cd.

Already tried most of the online wheel vendors. Tirerack included. The stock Cobra wheels are already 9.5 wide. Can't get wider than 10 inches without going up to a 18 or 19. 18 inches is pushing it for me, and I don't really want to go with that size wheel for ride and performance reasons. 19inches is out of the question. I'm wanting an 11inch width so I can properly mount a 335. Preferably on a 17inch wheel. But I also need to *like* the wheel. I'm partial to wheels that have a decent polished lip on them, 1 inch or more.

The GeForce4 MX cards were essentially relabeled GeForce2 cards. On that second chart it would be near the bottom of the chart. EDIT: Did some research - when this card came out in spring 2002 it was considered the slowest of the GeForce4 line of cards. It was on par with the vid cards from a year previous, 2001. But it had a very low pricepoint in its favor. But even when it came out it was not a good card. The review of the next gen card that came out, the FX series - more than quandrupled the performance over that card and they're down on that list in the 2-18 range. The GeForce3 card tripled its performance and its not even ON that chart. I'd place the MX on THAT chart around a 0.5-1. [ 16. November 2004, 03:20 PM: Message edited by: Mowgli ]

Plus both of those charts are with AntiAliasing off. One has Anistropic filtering off too. When you turn ON anti-aliasing, the ATI card just starts pulling away from the nVidia one more and more. I forgot to ask - how's the game so far? HL1 was the only game ever where my wife sat with me while I played - so I'm hoping the sequel is just as engrossing.

Doom3 is tailored for the nvidia rendering pipeline. John Carmack has said so publicly. Its not surprising to see the nvidia card edging out the ATI on that game. That being said, the rumor grist mill is saying the HL2 engine is partial to the ATI cards. Its an either/or thing. IMO because of the better form factor (one card slot not two), the better heat management, and the realistic power requirements (300watts vs 480watts and much less picky on power supply brands), pus monthly driver updates like clockwork, the ATI card is the way to go. That plus Doom 3 disappointed me, and my money is on HL2 tending to spawn more games that'll use its engine.
