http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/888/888781p1.html Its coming out for 360 first, incase you didnt already know. They also released the setlist. It looks pretty darn good. I am definitly more of a Guitar Hero guy though. I thought Sony's 'Keynote' was impressive. But I am a PS3 fanboy, my 360 disappointed me (not trying to start something, if you like 360 more that is fine with me )

Nice TR. The Wal-Mart near my house is open 24/7. If you think there are weird people there during normal hours, going at like 3 am is a real experience.

$5.13/Gallon if I converted liters to gallons and Canadian $ to US $ correctly. -

Im not trying to be condescending. What part of what I wrote was condescending? All I said was, Lambo's now are great handling, but they are on the weighty side (awd + extra equipment to run AWD). If Audi would throw away the AWD system, they would be even better. -
For planning my trip to Disney I picked up the book the 'Unofficial Guide to Disneyland'. They have sort of like daily schedules in there. They guide you on which rides to hit when and in what order. I dont know how well they work though, as I havent actually been to Disney yet.

Yes but weight spoils the performance and handling of cars. The LP560-4, the LP640 and the Reventon are all great cars, but think about how much better they would be if they were put on a diet. -

How much will it weigh? Even the suped up versions of the Merc and Gala are weighty I think at over 3000lbs which is IMO for a supercar nearly 500lbs overweight. You need to be quite a bit lighter to really catch my eye. its 3670.7 lb If Audi would let Lamborghini ditch the AWD system Lambo's would be so quick. Though keep in mind the Ferrari F430 weighs almost 3200lbs. Its not really a lightweight. -

The benefits of LED headlights are lower power consumption, durability and significantly more flexible packaging. But they heat up real quick. So they can be tough to engineer in a way that they wont over heat. I believe they are going to become the standard in the auto industry. Lexus and Audi are just early adopters I guess. They look neat: Edit - Ok in the this picture, the Audi looks sexy. I am kind of warming to it, Im still more of a Porsche 911 or Chevrolet Corvette Zo6/ZR1 kinda guy though. -

I've seen in it Red,White,Black,Grey and it is not pretty in any of them. Totally my opinion, but it doesnt flow like a Porsche 911 or Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Its a neat looking car, the LED headlights are really cool. The V8 out of the RS4 is probably one of the best engines in the world. Its a good car, but not that pretty. I would buy a Porsche 911 Turbo or AMV8 Vantage over the R8. Again, just my opinion. Maybe you think Im crazy, I think the Nissan GTR looks pretty good too. -

Yeah. Here in Canada atleast, the EVO X GSR is a 5-speed manual only. The MR has that twin clutch 6 speed. And a lot of the car guys I know are going for the flappy paddle twin clutch transmission. I have no experience with the twin clutch transmission, but I hear its a pretty good one. Similar in feel to the DSG from VW/Audi/Porsche -
Yes, its only five miles from the Disneyland Resort. They have a pretty good collection of roller coasters and family rides. Knotts has a re located Ghost Town, which is pretty nice. Also there is Soak City water park right across the street and Independence Hall. But if you are into just coasters, I would make the 90min drive up to SFMM. Don't waste your time at Universal, its over priced and boring, especially if you've been to Universal Orlando. Never been to Universal Orlando. So we are going to give it a shot. I think we will make the trip to Knotts as the general consensus here is that its a good one. SFMM, I don't think I could convince my mom to get on Tatsu. Thanks for the help. Again sorry PKI Man for the hijack.

I saw a EVO X this week as well. Very aggressive looking car. Im not sure about the 5 speed manual though, because you dont have a cruising gear so the engine is constantly making a racket. Amazing handling. I also saw a Audi R8. Its not pretty, but it is hugely fast and exciting. -
Thank you so much! I'd high five you if I could.

hey PKI Man, I dont mean to hijack your thread so please forgive me. But Im going to disneyland as well this summer for the first time. And I have one quick question. Would you TPR's say Knotts is a must do? Were spending 9 days in Southern California. 5 day park hopper tickets, 1 day at Universal. So there is some room to fit other things in.

Except with square brackets instead of round, and your id instead of mine. Then you click on roller coasters, search for the rides you've been on, click add, and then rate it. Simple. Thank you. I found it on the CF website just as I saw this post. Man I cant believe I didnt see that earlier California Screamin' Credit #1 here we come! Edit #1 - Is there a reason my signature is not showing up? I've looked through the control panel menu here, and I have not seen a button or anything that says "Add Signature on to posts" but I have writing in the "edit Signature box"

Holy, how did you do that? Where do I find that thing?

So, I have noticed in a few peoples signatures around here they have these Coaster Fanatics Coaster counting things: I am a member over at coaster fanatics, but I have yet to find the part of that site to get one of those coaster counters. I think they are pretty neat. Maybe I'm just blind, and its right on the front page of Coaster Fanatics. Do I have to upgrade to the 'Premium Account' because I will gladly do that. And maybe on my trip to Disneyland I will count California Screamin' as credit #1. HAHAHA
