I don't have D.'s gravestone out here. Neither did he save my nations
ass.

Besides, with Hitler located in New Zealand it would have been just
the other way around my guess!

away.

So are we talking about Danny here, or all Aussies ???

First you slag off ALL Aussies, then you retreat and just apply it to Danny,
then you give me a hypothetical situation that means ABSOLOUTLY ***-ALL !!

How about we get off each others backs in regards to where we're from, and
talk about what we do, racing sims......

Naaah... What I SHOULD have typed is:

"Danny, you are Australian. So if your parents aren't Aboriginals,
then your far ancestors must have been criminals dropped as far away
as possible by the English. Contrary to most native Australians, this
bad behaviour was most probably geneticly determined in your
ancestors, causing a severe uncurable tendency towards bad-mouthing
and unreasonable behaviour even in later generations. I therefore
accuse you of confirming the totally false and dumb stereotype that
Australians must be bad people because some of their ancestors were
supposed to be."

But it had to be "catchy", so I had to simplify and therefore
introduced confusion. So to clear up: it was Danny who I was crushing
(he's probably still weeping somewhere in a corner of the room)

;-)

Now let's get back to -preferrably balanced- discussion of the latest
sims.

JoH, extremely thankful that some *nice* Australians helped save the
ass of his nation.

I suspect you need to learn *alot* more about Australia before you can
make such sweeping claims.

I don't suppose you've ever heard of the word, 'migration'?

Cheers,
Rod.

- Australian whos ancestors weren't sent here for being criminals.

Look, I needed to insult the guy. And it is well known that in that
kind of situation you throw reasonableness out of the window. (like he
does in all his "impressions" of GP3) Ok?  :-)

Make sure you have the sensitivity adjusted to full analogue on your pedals.

Are you serious?  You can't get wheelspin in second gear?  Are you playing
on the keys or with the driving aids on or something?  You can definitely
get wheelspin in second gear. :)

I'd like to see you floor the throttle in any racing sim/car without easing
off and see how far you get :-)

It is true that you can't control a spin without lifting.

No, you can kick the back out with the throttle and hold with the wheel...
GP3's not that bad, just not as "talkative" as the other sims.

Dunno, it didn't seem to work for me.  I was trying flooring the throttle
sat still in first gear and trying to catch the spin and keep the car
straight.  Despite being able to catch spins pretty good in GPL, I couldn't
manage it once in GP3 unless I was prepared to lift off the throttle a
little.
