In Texas and this humidity is killing me. I know it's 108 degrees back home but I'd rather be in that. This poo poo is for the loving birds and I don't know how you whackjobs do this.
Spent the weekend in Texas, that was enough to convince me I never want to go back. Hot, humid and lovely...I don't see the appeal. Driving between cities there's just nothing and everything looks run down.

Time to browse the other threads and see if there's an avatar worth grabbing.


Texas was a good time even if I didn't get to spend any time exploring Austin. TWS is a armpit of a facility but a fun track, way higher speed than I've ever been on before. Came in 5th in our class largely thanks too three unscheduled and long pit stops. We expected to be running in the rain all weekend but ended up only having one 5 minute downpour Saturday afternoon. Hell of a good weekend.

Take a day trip to Nagoya and hit up the Toyota Museum and Critical Hit bar (right outside of the Fushimi station, down the street from the Club Sega and Hilton).

This summer has changed from what I thought would be, and now I'm faced with a series of difficult decisions. I see the light at the end of the tunnel, but it's going to be a matter of swallowing my pride to do the right thing.

One step at a time, I guess. Cheers, ya'll weirdo freak folks..

On a totally unrelated note...I don't know if you guys remember, but a long time ago in one of the chat threads I made a comment that it might be fun to set up a competition with Automation (the car design/tycoon game on Steam) to design something, like an engine or a car, and have them compete against one another. Well, after some time fumbling around with different ideas, I might have come up with a heck of a formula for this...who's down for an Automation-based Goon GT series?

Re-posting this for MrChips. We need this!


An update to this: my race simulation is now complete and functional; all that's left is polishing up the rules a bit and to make them look all FIA-ey. Expect a thread sometime tonight with more information about the inaugural Automation SA-GTE Series!

Thank god for wide shoulders on the interstate and a powerful bike. He suddenly swerved from the third lane to the first lane, and I caught enough of it out of the corner of my eye to just swerve and gun it. 65 to 120 happens quick :v:

Edit: I need a new av :( this one was bought for me as a joke like 7 years ago and I just...never changed it

You like model cars? If going to Tokyo after Kyoto, stop off in Shizuoka, check out the Tamiya factory's small visitor's centre. Also Rainbow Ten if you're after shopping for model kits, they have about the best prices I've found, and a good selection.

Bastard. I stayed in Shizuoka and spent a couple of days wandering around when I was there without any particular plan. Didn't know there was a Tamiya factory with tours. Looking at the map I think I probably walked right past it too!

I was under the impression that the war boys rebuilt the Interceptor and that was the silver Falcon they were driving later. If I recall correctly, one of the old ladies shot the driver and it spun off undamaged.
