Yes I know this, but not In the fashion that the game does

You didn't really describe what you are referring to. Are you talking Snap-oversteer? Did you turn off the aids? I have experienced the car straightening out during a drift, that was until I tuned it.


Hey Ich....I added some more negative camber to my FT-86c and now it produces more smoke from the drift that I actually lose sight of the car (3rd person view).

Peep the New Nurburgring comparison video for the latest GT5 rendition of the famous track.



That pretty much sums up why GT owns! If you took away the on screen data from the Game, you could fool just about anyone into thinking the GT5 version was real-life.

Size is going to be a factor for sure, want something powerful but still fairly nimble and light in weight.
This may sound stupid: why would you need a firearm when riding a motocycle? I failed to understand the relationship of a motocycle and a firearm....

Actually I did watched the movie, but I just do not understand you need firearm in real life. I guess I am just not used to the fact of that.

-Columbine
-Virgina Tech
-Gunmen on Loose in Deadly Tennessee Post office shooting
-19yr old arraigned in November shooting at a mall 2 days after Thanksgiving in Detroit

Latest news:
-Arizona shooting
PHOENIX – The nation got its first look on Monday at the 22-year-old loner accused of trying to assassinate Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

The city shaken by a shooting rampage that killed six people and left 14 injured prepared to come together at a church Tuesday to mourn the victims, including a 9-year-old girl who sang in the choir.



And you asking me why I would "Need" a firearm? Should I somehow become separated from my firearm then I have 16yrs worth of Martial Arts training to fall onto as well. There is no sense in "not" understanding why self defense is important. I don't care if I was riding a tricycle I'm packin my tone.

My mom is a very spiritual and religious person. Goes to Church every Sunday like clock work. Even she still has a .38 with a laser sight on it. She just recently passed her permit class, which prompted me to get mine.

So it seems that nowadays everyone has a firearm for self-defense, provided that it is concealed. That's the drill, huh.

BTW, wasn't that loner in AZ using a glock handgun?

Seriously, if you think your life is that much in jeopardy that you must carry a gun, you should really think about moving! You should come down to CA, Southern CA to be exact! The only gun I carry is the one in my pants b/c of all the breezys here!

Exactly.

If you take away guns from everyone, then the criminals are less able to get them as well - less chance of getting shot yourself, less chance of others getting shot. In a lot of cases pulling your own gun out is likely to cause more harm than good.

BUT the self-defense thing (martial arts) is very good IMO. If both you and a criminal have self-defense training, then you're more likely to survive than if the criminal pulls a gun on you before you get yours out....
Not to mention the fact that one person can cause a LOT less injury with just some hand-to-hand skills than they can with a firearm.

I have to disagree, taking away guns would absolutely screw this country, think about it, Mexico is right there and if no one else had guns I garuntee the bad people still would, and also as the major power I'n the world if you took away guns there'd be more of a threat of invasion, you can laugh at that all you want, but I garuntee it can and will happen if guns were taken away, I was I'n the military and have been to Afghanistan, and I can tell you first hand that guns don't kill people, people kill people, and just because you take guns away, dosnt mean they arnt gonna have them. Look at drugs, drugs are illeagle, yet america is one of the leading if not the lead drug capitals of the world, granted I know guns don't get you high, but it was just a for instance, so no offense guys but think twice before you say stuff like that

If everyone had a gun...Then nobody would fuck around with anyone. A society where civilians have guns is safer than those without.

I just got my CCW license and I do plan on carrying everyday.

It's better to have and not need, than to need and not have.
