What in the name of fuck are you talking about, yes I fully appreciate you are excellent at driving simulators, I haven't for one second even thought how that relates to you driving in the real world.
I'm quite handy at COD MW2, I don't think for one second I am going to be able to be dropped into Beirut with a kalashinkov and go all John Matrix on their arses.

This is getting out of hand in here now. And it's all Steve's fault.

I haven't a clue what you are talking about Chris, nobody has suggested that and I haven't even mentioned game physics in this thread once.
I like Forza, to me it feels right.
End of story.

which doesnt let me qualify to say something id good or bad in a racing sim...
if ak come in here and said forza is shit and gt5 is the dogs nobody would question it.

So what you are saying OJC, is that until Chris does a lap of the nurburgring for real that he is not a man?

this is quite interesting..
"More serious drivers will love the fact that fuel depletion is now inter-connected to the power of the engine, it's aspiration and way of driving. Although I didn't research it yet in any longer race, menu clearly says that driving more aggressively, with revving into red-area and such will consume more fuel. I hope I'll have time to tackle both tire-wear and fuel-depletion today and it is clear it will add whole another dimension for online racing. I have no idea about brake-fade and such but I'll share any insights as soon as I realize them."

Yeah I read that and thought awesome! If you tune your engine and it drinks fuel like crazy and you give it death all the time you'll knacker the tyres / fuel faster... driving smoother and keeping revs low would help save fuel.
I think a lot of these ideas will be from where they entered the 24 hour nurburgring race and experienced it all first hand... having to preserve fuel and tyres etc.
I also like the thought of head tracking with a psEye .... I'm yet to know how well that'd work because if I turn my head too far I won't be looking at the screen but it'd be cool to be able to look into the corners a bit 
The game sounds truely awesome and I can't wait to get it. I hope I get it in on Tuesday.

head tracking in games is a bit wierd, your eyes are still looking at the screen but your moving your head, what you need is a slightly bigger FOV and look into the corner yourself.

No mate, for the price of a PS3 and the game I could do a real track day and enhance my Elite status even further.

Was that another dig at Chris and the fact he hasn't been on track before?

Do you want a full on punch in the face?
Is there a particular reason you don't reply to text messages? You honestly think you are better than me because you went to Uni you fucking student cunt.
I'm going mad here.
