Yeah, wrong forum to post in but please bear with me...

Cheers,

Ru'

I leanred it on GT4 but was gutted to realise that I didn't "bounce" off the concrete walls at 150mph - to say it was a let down is an understatement.

I'd always had an air of confidence after mastering the ring on Gran Turismo 4 on the Playstation 2- not once was any of my cars bodywork crumpled or dented despite crashing in the game at fairly high speeds.

You can imagine my embarrasment as they towed my write-off from the track in a crumpled mess of twisted metal and blood.

In fact I'm thinking of taking the makers of the game to court, although any compensation will be scant reward for the double amputation I suffered. Still , I bet the look on my face after my "off" was priceless!
