Re: RPC Motoring Topic
Sorry to change the conversation, but why not use this thread for Nfs online tournaments ?

Re: RPC Motoring Topic
I didn't say this was the RPC Racing Game topic, I said it was the RPC Motoring topic, its purpose is to discuss cars in general.

I'll avoid public transport as much as I can, though I'll agree that in some big cities driving is just too much of a pain in the ass.
Re: RPC Motoring Topic
Ugh, I despise public transport so much.

Hehe, bay parking is a hard thing to get into indeed, never manage to get between the lines, then I become a bit too finicky.

Re: RPC Motoring Topic
It's all about turning in sooner than you think, at least, for me. Only in the last few months have I perfected the art of stall parking (we call them stalls over here; why do we have to have a different name for everything?).
Driving in Europe sucks in comparison, the cities are generally so much more compact, it's hard to move. Only in downtown/highway rush hour does it really become a bother here, otherwise it's quite pleasant.Hunchman801 wrote:I'll avoid public transport as much as I can, though I'll agree that in some big cities driving is just too much of a pain in the ass.

I am a witness. You definitely want to avoid driving in Lisbon's downtown.Hunchman801 wrote:I'll avoid public transport as much as I can, though I'll agree that in some big cities driving is just too much of a pain in the ass.

Re: RPC Motoring Topic
Hehe, seeing as I live in a town, heavy traffic isn't all that bad.

Re: RPC Motoring Topic
It really depends on what you're driving. If you're driving a luxury saloon or 4x4 geared for comfort, then an automatic transmission would suit the car. If you're driving a car that has sports heritage, or is sporty then a manual transmission is the way to go. For the most part I'd chose a manual. You have much better control, and changing gear is a form of expression! Autos are good in the right sort of cars. Having a sports car with an auto box is just SINFUL.

Meh, I've continued to enjoy it thoroughly over the ages, perhaps I'm not quite as well versed in it.
I do also love watching the plentiful reruns on Dave.

Meh, I don't watch much on the box anyways, so it's usually whenever I'm downstairs for whatever reason.

Re: RPC Motoring Topic
Now after having some hours of driving with a manual car, I think manual cars are pretty funny 
Sure automatic makes life easier, but I'd go for the challenge
