Right - updated the blog with more pictures... im almost finished now! I spent half a day last saturday on it, and then all day Sunday and Monday this bank holiday. I've still got to neaten up the wiring inside, but its good enough. I've got a PC in there which is hooked up to the arcade sticks, but there's also a Sega Dreamcast too (and i've downloaded every good game ever released!). The Dreamcast needs to use its own pads though - so i've got them hung under the controls area inside the machine... they can just be lifted out when required All thats lef to do is: Finish the edges - i need to order some T-mouldings and route a channel in the edges - to give it professional quality finish. Get some perspex for the top... i've got a light in there and need a perspex screen. And im going to print off some arcade logos onto acetate so its a back lit image. Decals... i've emailed a guy on eBay who makes vinyl stickers asking if he can do custom jobs... i've got a couple of really stylish street fighter graphics that i want to put on it...! Now i just need to get a stool from argos to sit on while playing

What do you do for a living Mike? You in the games business? Can you get me a job?! I wanted to be a game developer originally but just stuck with the first programming job i applied for

I 100% agree and i've been saying it for months. Audi drivers are c0cks. That said, i'd have moved out of his way - simply because i HATE getting stuck behind someone so i sympathise... although if he flashed me then no i wouldnt move... i'd slow down to 10mph and stare at him in my mirror. So yeh you did the right thing

Digsy, you have been a great servant to the club... Now put your feet up and start posting in the wrong sections

Hi Steve - Can you PM me the discount code please... I wont be there but my co-owner will be there in our RX7 Cheers.

I dont get fuel prices at the moment... In my town the prices are 105.9 or 112.9 for standard or vPower... and then 4 miles down the road at the next shell garage its 102.9 and 109.9. I dont get it.

Yep, my one of these is blocked. I need a new one too.

Have i missed something?? Where's your zed mike?

Boy racer = Max Power. I fully agree with what Rich said. Basically, i'd consider myself an educated, middle class person - but when i see scrotes that i went to school with 'off the estate' in similar cars, it makes me want to move on. Most of them round here seem to have Supra's or e46 325's - so not quite zed territory yet... but as soon as they upgrade, im off!

For me its c0ck audi drivers in new shape tt's and a5's. BMW's not so much. But my absolute pet hate is when im on the inside lane of a 2 or 3 lane roundabout and the 'tard next to me cuts straight across my lane nearly killing me. Unless i hof it and get infront of them, i almost get crushed every time!

Yeh i think its the length of time people have owned their cars... I'd never kept a car more than 11 months before getting the zed, and im currently 6 weeks away from 2 years ...but my eyes are wandering.

Ha ha.. nice one Martin

Cool! I've only ever seen 1 of these - at the London motorshow last summer, and they were doing a stunt show with it

WWW.LIVEONSAT.COM It tells you all the games across europe and also what channel they're on.

The only reason i want one is so that even more people hate me than currently do... Anyway, enough hijacking - sorry Ian.

Yep... A range rover sport is my realistic dream car! I love them.

Ofcourse its a GTR Anything less is a backward/sideward step TBH Good luck then...! When i was in hospital last year i was reading.. er Redline i think and there was a 4 page article about GTR ownership... and there were these two guys they did the feature on - and the running costs over the 2 years they'd both owned their cars was like £20-25k each!! That put me waaaaaaaaay off the idea Is a GTST a backward step performance wise? (i've not done the research yet )... Im getting that itchy feeling at the moment as i've had the zed for 2 years... and all i seem to be looking at are high mileage Range Rovers and R34's...

What sort of R34 are you looking at then... a GTR?? For probably the last 6 weeks or so i've been 'mildly perusing' PH and autotrader for an R34.. just a GTST but they're not dear (in standard form)... but i've not found one in the blue for the same as what my zeds worth yet...

Serves you right for being a flash b@stard darren Honestly, jet skiing? More like you fell down stairs... heh heh. You can lend me your camera setup for next month then... seeing as you wont be using it... am at Oulton Park on the 12th and 26th

I hated the last one... i was more into PGR4... But IMHO there hasnt been a decent racing game (or once which has captured my attention) since NFS Underground 2

SEX. I love the current line up of Masers...

Welcome mate... hope you got a good deal on it!

Cheers Mike. Arighi's is about half a mile from my house... hadn't thought of going there. That said, £800 is a bit more than i want to spend, and they have a 4-6 week delivery wait...
