New crash flip record !

14 posts by 10 people · 13 Feb 2000 - 17 Feb 2000

I have unintentionally gone for Rob Swindells crash flip record. I posted a crash replay to alt.binaries.simulators.autos that happened to me at the Oring during a VROC race with Pro damage on. It may also take the altitude record. Look for "Oring Crash" -- Don Scurlock Vancouver,B.C.

I think you got the top speed record as well, 244 mph just after take off. Nice one.

I stuck my effort there - about to have a look at yours... -- Cheers, Robin Lord - Trance DJ & Sim Racer. http://www.oppositelock.co.uk Nrburgring and Grand Prix Legends | I have unintentionally gone for Rob Swindells crash flip record. | I posted a crash replay to alt.binaries.simulators.autos that happened | to me at the Oring during a VROC race with Pro damage on.

Someone wanna either post this on the Internet or mail it to me? I can't dload stuff off newsgroups (Damn AOL!) Thanks. I'm gonna go for the world record now. Wish me luck! (Personal best "realistic" flip to date: 14 rolls I think) Dan Belcher Team Racing Unlimited http://simcrashes.cjb.net
I looked at yours Robin, and I'm now going to have to claim the altitude and spins record for "a car with only one wheel on". The altitude of both replays is amazing. Look at it frame by frame from the roll bar and see how high it is, it's like being up in a plane! There's some weird physics going on that can't be realistic.

You still get the launch (or is it all time GPL?) speed record! Definitely weird physics, guess GPL was never meant to be a flight sim : ) I cant believe how high my car got, it was only when I watched the replay and it took forever to land that I realised. -- Cheers, Robin Lord - Trance DJ & Sim Racer. http://www.oppositelock.co.uk Nrburgring and Grand Prix Legends | I looked at yours Robin, and I'm now going to have to claim the | altitude and spins record for "a car with only one wheel on".

Pretty wild ride, I might have you tho' <G> can't touch the speed but the altitude is pretty close and I didn't count the flips - gonna need an unobjective ruling here.... or am I disqualified since it was an on-line incident (good ol' collision detection...) I zipped the replay and put it at alt.binaries.simulators.autos under header Eagle Airlines... I also put a quicky link on the web site at http://home.att.net/~jbwyatt/misc/navigate.html aol's users, if the browser doesn't like the ~ in the url, use this one and just go to the 2nd page... http://jbwyatt.home.att.net ~The Lotus went for a pretty nifty ride too, but my Eagle definitely spread her wings - the landing is sweet...

Hi all, Can someone explain to this alt.binary.whatever newbie how i go about accessing these types of sites? I've seen these all over the place but don't have a clue how to go about getting there. Do I need special software or do I do it through my browser? Anyway any help would be appreciated sine I've got a good flip replay from Silverstone I could let you have look at. :-) Thanks, Phil * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!

whatever you're using to get here, (Outlook, Agent, Netscape, whatever news reader) just tell it to go to ALT.BINARIES.SIMULATORS.AUTOS instead of REC.AUTOS.SIMULATORS The newsgroups with BINARIES in the title are where you can get away with attaching files to your posts.... you can do it in any of them but you'll catch hell for it if it's not a binary group... that's why they aren't posted here and instead just a mention of where to find it....

Aha...mine was online as well. Is that why we get this weird physics? I'd never seen anything like it until I started on VROC a week ago. -- Don Scurlock Vancouver,B.C.

ALT.BINARIES.SIMULATORS.AUTOS isn't available through any ISP.

Sorry but you have no idea of what your talking about. The newsgroup called alt.binaries.simulators.autos is on a vast majority of newsgroup servers who handle Binary newsgroups. If your ISP doesn't offer a server good enough to have it 1) request the NG or 2) Pay for a private newsserver. Still, this newsgroup is pretty much empty most of the time. -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.WeRace.net -- People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.
