I'm thinking of getting one of these for my 19" lcd monitor and would appreciate some information. What is the best groove pitch and focal length to get for this? Thank you MILO

Hmmmm. All of my arguments wrapped up in one situation in a small Dutch town. Woman Police.... Political Correctness gone amuck... The failure of Liberalism.... The "Mainstream" media's agenda.... Appeasement...... Relativism.... Entitlement... If you don't think this is the reality and IS NOT coming to a town near you then you are...

I've come to the conclusion that the optimum field of view (FOV) setting in a simulator of any type is one that corresponds to the same FOV you have in real life. For instance, when you are driving a racing simulator, it's best if the view of the car dash, mirrors, etc., fills up the same space as it does in real life. I've started doing this as much...

both games are coming out on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation3 if I'm not mistaken. ~30fps Colin McRae: Dirt * img353.imageshack.us/img353/7726/dirt1ms6.jpg * img353.imageshack.us/img353/4585/dirt2tn9.jpg * img139.imageshack.us/img139/3489/dirt3et4.jpg * img353.imageshack.us/img353/7545/dirt4ao1.jpg * img353.imageshack.us/img353/2013/dirt5ub0.jpg * img353.imageshack.us/img353/5342/dirt6qu4.jpg * img353.imageshack.us/img353/5374/dirt7hw1.jpg vs ~60fps...

Ths 69 physics are enabled with the "Carsets" button in GEM. Move the 69 physics from the left to the right column. -------------= Posted from Ugroups . com =------------- ---= Fast & Free Web Portal to Usenet Newsgroups =--- -------------= * w w w .ugroups . com / =-------------

This seems like something special. It gives just about the best driving feel of any sim or mod I've tried. You can really throw the car around and yet still save it. Check it out at rFactor Central: * w w w .rfactorcentral . com /detail.cfm?ID=S.N.R.%20Challenge Pat Dotson

Here is a link to a photo from the Speedway Expo (about 2 weeks ago in Mass.) If anyone was in attendance could you comment on if this is the IRacing game or not. They had advertised as being there to show the new sim. The dual player single screen looks a bit arcade like to me, and it is hard to tell the types of cars being raced, but they might be Modifieds. * w w w .nascarlocalracing . com /content.php?Series ID=6 Anyone...

Are there any new F1 games for PC, or maybe something in the pipeline? If not, which is the newest F1 game. I'm still sitting with F1-2002 and would like something more up-to-date.

Well, I haven't touched a sim racing game since NR4 came out. Yeah. NR4. But I loved me some racing games many years ago, and pulled out my TM Nascar Digital Pro to see if it worked. Of course, as I had been somewhat warned by posts from 3-5 years ago, XP support is not too keen with their less than fantastic products. Interestingly, I couldn't get the...
