elzergone posted:HAha well we'll see in about 5 more years. Oh and the reason ppl over here in the states dont touch rotary gins that much is because most americans dont understand how they work. Think about what makes more power a piston that goes up and down which vibrates the engine so much or a rotor that keeps spining and evens every thing out. I mean a 13B Rew is known as the V-8 killer. a 20B kills the V12. and the 20B Rew matches the V16 That dumbass needs a basic lesson in combustion efficiency.

RealKyleH posted:That is not an American car show. I have never seen it before and it is god awful. That's not to say there's anything that compares to top gear here or anything like that just saying that's substandard even for America. This is where i'd link that awful lexus IS-F review which is on the same lovely level (if I could find it). They're all undeniably bad, and the ones here in canada are probably even worse. I'm just curious why 95% of NA review shows are "spec sheet + shots of it driving slowly down a country lane". Doesn't have to be top gear entertaining, but for gently caress's sake have some balls and tell people what you actually think.

mutt2jeff posted:I just watched that whole season of Canada's Worst driver for some reason beyond my comprehension. The conclusion was total BS, they chose the guy who decided on his own to pull over and stop, rather than the old lady who broke dozens of laws in one small trip, and was completely oblivious to what she was doing. She is by far the greater danger. The worst driver in that season got kicked off the show anyway. I do agree though, Dale should have taken the title. She just doesn't understand she has no business being anywhere near a car. I felt sorry for the dude with the wife. She was just straight up abusive.

To me just looks like he went way too fast into that corner, but I can't tell as it seems like the sound/telemetry/video is all out of sync. It *sounds* like he's accelerating around that corner like he wasn't expecting the chicane but I really can't tell.

I used 960 to get more viewing angle but its hard to see the road. Turned out ok I think. God I miss that game, one of my all time favourites. Why can't they make a good 360 rally sim so I can make use of my fanatec wheel.

It's interesting. I never, ever want a touchscreen near my car. It is also a good example of bad UI design.
