How many points do you get for how many laps? I'm still working my way through the Amateur races just to clear each level as I was jumping up through them but decided to go back and do each one in turn. Might have to abandon that though for some points and cash earning!

How many laps of which circuit for that amount? My easiest money so far is 13k fro 4 laps of the oval thing, the Nissan 350 or whatever the race is called. Got my S204 brought down to about 340bhp and it steams everything for just keep doing that over and over again when I need some more money for buying cars. Boring as hell but gets the credits.
Had an hour on the wheel last night. Used a R4 Viper in a race against a Porsche GT. First couple of goes I was struggling but started to improve and won the race. was so much more fun with the wheel and the feedback you get for the powerful cars is superb. Tight corners are a strugle but the long sweeping corners with the wheel are great! would have been on live until I had visitors.... don't people bloody realise I'm happy to be a hermit now?!

The best example of the wheels ability I have experienced so far is the Red Bull GT3 cup on Mugello full, there is just no way I could get even near my time on the pad I can get on the wheel. It's fantastic.

about 25 laps of the murello (sp?) track
took around 50 mins although it never seamed that long
i initially started it just to see if the tuned 22b could handle the 1st 2 laps as it was full of race cars IIRC
before i knew it i was 15 laps up so figured i would just finish it and be done with it
spent most of the race drifting the scooby around the corners and laped most of the other cars, i did have to come into the pits for fuel and tyres at one point :d

Bad points include being abused by American teeneagers when you wipe the floor with them - you can get your revenge by teabagging though
Ed - cant find your lap time for the GT3 on the Full Mugello on the leaderboards - short Mugello is 57.510 compared to my 56.902.
Wonder if its worth getting a wheel?

Its suprising how many people go out and buy one when they've seen one in action. Gears Of War is one the most graphically impressive, although its a bit too short.

hehe - sounds like a challenge. Incidentally, my time was with the GT3 also but with the controller, cant say I'm a big fan of that car to be honest though - prefer to go with one of the Audi's in that class.

Video games
Teabagging has become a taunt in most online multiplayer First-Person Shooter video games, such as Halo 2 (and more recently on Halo 3 Beta and Shadowrun), where a type of crouching movement can be used. Also known as "Corpse-Humping", the 'teabag' is performed by repeatedly crouching over the face/body of a deceased player to simulate the inserting of the ******* into the dead player's mouth. Many games delay the re-spawning of a killed player for a few seconds after death, allowing ample time for the victor to use this aggravating technique to frustrate his or her opponent. Various forum threads have been written to describe the etiquette of teabagging a downed opponent. Most commonly, teabagging is used as a form of revenge on an opponent who had previously beaten the teabagger. Although teabagging is sometimes used for that "special kill", it is basically used anytime a person feels the need to do so, and can be found in almost any online FPS game.

and for the femal players:
Female Version of TeaBagging: With the rise of women playing online games the term Teabagging was found to be too gender specific. Two new terms Peach Punch and/or Clam Slam are now synonymous with Teabagging when done by a female player.
