Noko Tau photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-16 12:39 | Interesting thing about the German race cars of the period. Originally their race colours were white, however they soon realised that paint cost money and weighed a significant amount so their cars were made with a polished unpainted metal finish to reduce cost and weight. As it happens it also reduced drag. Afterwards when Japan were to join the racing scene they adopted the white paint scheme. Of course all of this fell by the wayside when sponsors wanted their own paint schemes. orig10.deviantart.net/d937/f/2016/107/9/d/auto_union_v16_type_c_streamline__37_001_by_truemouse-d9z7as4.png | |

enzo96 photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-16 00:40 | Really why does it matters if it's about to flip? As long as the car views are clear, then it's what matters | |
Noko Tau photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-15 23:07 | JDMracerocket96 wrote Why is the car about to flip?? Noku can you take a picture that isint in air or of the car wrecking You see any dents or scratches on it? The car wasn't wrecking. That was the second time I lifted two wheels on a right turn. The first time was when I had passed the Zonda earlier, this time to stay ahead. I was pushing it to it's limit. By pushing a car to it's limit you know what it and you are capable of. If I drove slowly enough that all four wheels were on the ground there's a very good chance I wouldn't have won that race. It was like being on a knife-edge on all five laps. As it happens this shows views with more detail than most people will be privy to. How can that be a bad thing? | |

Noko Tau photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-15 18:46 | I guess I could run the race again. The problem about taking a picture out in the open is the glare bouncing off glass and paint. Sun always seems to be shining in the Deep Forest. Of course it'll be against a different 'hero' car. Hope that doesn't offend some folks sensibilities. -- Last edit: 2016-04-15 18:47:16 | |

Razor440 photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-15 17:45 | Maybe we should have a "click to view" gallery. That way nobody argues over who gets to provide a screenshot. Unless if the main picture is already decided they could go in the gallery | |

Noko Tau photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-14 00:55 | Stressful race. Expert Seasonal, Grand Valley race cars. This is really not the car for it but it is possible to win . . . just don't ever lose any speed. Carry as much as you possibly can. Make one mistake and they'll have you. A very average if forgiving car. And yes, that's a Pagini Zonda R I'm inching past, on the last lap, approaching the finish line. I should have chosen a random rally course. | |
Noko Tau photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-13 18:55 | You know that despite not having a Ferrari badge on it, and old Enzo being rather adamant that no Ferrari should have less than 8 cylinders, it's still built by Ferrari, in the Ferrari factory, with the Ferrari staff. It is still every bit as much a Ferrari as the new DS3 is a Citroën. Conclusively, the DVLA consider them Ferraris. There is nothing wrong with calling it a Ferrari Dino 246 GT. | |
Noko Tau photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-13 14:04 | Pretty decent in the intermediate seasonals. Pretty straight foward tune but watch the initial torque in this one though. Not too high and going over crests try not to make it too light on her rear axle. Even if you lose a few mph going over you'll be able to make that up soon as she settles on her haunches and you can tear around the last hairpin while your opponents are still trying not to slid off. | |

Noko Tau photo_librarymode_comment 2016-04-09 04:32 | It did have a Rover badge but in 1998 it was still ultimately being made by BMW. Just before BMW dropped Rover like a hot potato after appropriating the Mini badge and making the Mini's history BMW's own. Have you seen the present Mini website? It's disgusting how they're shoehorning BMW in as if they made it in the 1960's. Many thanks to Eran0004 and Gerome19. Lots of fun to be had. I've made a lot of these and can't just choose two, so please choose two that you think best exemplify the Mini. orig09.deviantart.net/48e8/f/2016/106/c/3/cooper_1_3i__98_001_by_truemouse-d9z3626.png orig15.deviantart.net/0c38/f/2016/106/1/7/cooper_1_3i__98_002_by_truemouse-d9z36b9.png Not sure why they aren't all posting.

Google defention: A military brat (colloquial or military slang) is the child of an active-duty military personnel. Military brats are associated with a unique subculture and cultural identity. It means "Brother" in Polish and some other slavic languages. Google translator also claims that Brat refers to a badly behaving child in English. I don't know if it's true or not but the small drawing on the poster above, just after "BRAT" kinda proves that. | |
