  1. Whoops, I reserved my rooms a loooooong time ago, and I forgot to post up.
  2. Why should I be forced to view ads that in no way increase the immersion level or help lower the purchase price of my game? This is a sad sad trend...
  3. How did you create this thread without a monitor! Check your cables and try a different monitor.
  4. Try trace rount in the command window. tracert <ip address or dns name> This will ping every rounter between you and whatever ip or dns address type.
  5. Wish I still had spring break, I've been working so much lately that mybe I will take some vacation and give myself a spring break.
  6. FYI Your car came with OEM tires that were made to specs that were dictated by the car company. The same tire bought from a tire dealer will NOT have the same , rolling resistance, spring rate, or wet/dry charactoristics that your OEM tire have. Don't get me wrong, they may attually be better than your OEM tires. To be turely sure we would have to test them on one of our machines. For the most part you will have to sacrifice ride comfort for performance, so the fact that the Goodyears perform better and have a lower comfort rating makes sense. The reason is that to increase perfomance the tire has to resist changing its shape so it will have a lower spring rate, harder rubber compounds, and less aggressive tread pattern. All these combine to give you better performance but less comfort. If I were you I would see if you can test the Goodyears to see if the sacrifice in comfort for performance is worth it for you. Enjoy! Oh yeah go here and see what other people think about the tires. They may have reviewed them, so you can even look at some decent statistical data.
  7. There are one's for just about every price range. The one I linked to I payed $550 including tax. That includes the radio, gas, and some miscelatious items (like batteries and fill tubes). My hobby store has some small gas powered buggies (1/15 th scale maybe) that go for about $120. Most (if not all) come preassembled ( ). To get going from scratch you would need verious sizes of allen wrenches, a decent size tool box, gas, filter oil, body clips, extra steerring parts ( I recommend getting this becase I break these components the most ), and air filter oil.
  8. It comes pre-assembled (I would rather put it together though). All you have to do is gas it up and break it in, and you're set! Btw its loads of fun driving that thing...nothing stops it!
  9. Rubber gromets for you hard drives will silence any vibration they create. I have them on my 4 HD's, never hear a peep. -Edit- With water cooling fans are still involved. You will end up with less fans which will make it a bit quieter, but the radiator will still have a fan( or two) attached to it.
  10. I've been a long time fan of R/C cars, truck, planes, boats, helicopters, and anything else R/C. I was wondering if anyone out there in GC land know of a good club in the Northeast Ohio / Eastern PA area. I'm looking at getting a little deeper into racing and playing around. I just got one of these a few months ago and love it dearly Basically I'm looking for a place to go and mess around. Dirt tracks, ovals, and air fields locations would be helpful too. Thanks for you info guys. P.S. Just a thought but maybe if there are enough people out there that do this in the GC community we could start our own R/C Club spin off! Woohoo!
  11. It came in my parents new truck from the factory...I don't think is the sound system because it is rockford fosgate (sp?).
  12. guess they didn't quite take you seriously. You must be new here... or "special" Or have a fetish for nested quotes. poop don't be sad, monitor-boy. M&M's anyone?
  13. Can we say, "Space Junk"? I experienced the trial period for XM sattelite radio. I was not very impressed. Audio quality was less than FM radio, plus the $12 month service fee make this one sour deal.
  14. I must say, death match ranks kinda low on my list but it is fun non-the-less. Lets do it!
  15. I have never heard the term 'linked' used in reference to RAM before. Maybe they mean dual channel?
  16. Try setting a manual ip address for the Xbox360. If you need more help...read below. What is you home network ip range, 192.168.1.xxx or 192.168.0.xxx?
  17. One other thing, I love peanut M&M's. I request that Peanut M&M's be placed all over my room and gaming area. Oh sorry this is very important, please remove the peanuts from the chocolate coating and place them in a seperate bowl. Thanks for your understanding. MixMaster Slaughter
  18. Check the cable. What have you tried? Need input! Jonny 5 is alive!
