Million £ driving simulator

[Phil]

and this one was a posh as the queen when it came out in colour

 

[brucelee]

yep thats the one where do you find this stuff mate that takes me back to me and my 2 bruvs fighting over whose go lol

It was a XBOX then lol

 

[brucelee]

yeah and spectrums where amazing when you first saw one as they actually had characters in there games
and the first computers I seen where at school or the COOP quality house we learned how to right a program for our name then go there and put it on all the computers
the first computers where apple, BBCs and amstrads very very basic

It was like an over sized computer game. I only went to sign up for the drink driving to see how much free booze I could down before crashing, but all of them have been taken up .

Ps, really good wiring system.

just had the pleasure of going on the uni`s driving simulator. Million quids worth. it`s the closest you get to driving a car whilst not driving a car if you know what i mean.
it looked like something out of NASA. piccies to follow

For **** sake Phil how do you manage all of these things - Are you like an A-list Sparkie or something? If you're not getting your hands on the BGB months before us mere mortals; then you're doing things like this. Got any vacancies???

[Phil]

[brucelee]

Ken, get yourself down to BAE Systems. They are looking for mockpit pilots.

[video=youtube;aIz5z9VoLJU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIz5z9VoLJU[/video]

The rocket assisted ejector seat uses a small, controlled explosive to fracture and remove the canopy clear of the soon to be ejected (guess who?). The mockpit whizzes along at a cool 966 kilometres per hour. It proved that just 3 seconds after pulling the armed eject handle, the ejectee would be safely strap-hanging from a parachute well clear of the doomed canopy. In thirty test runs the system has passed all its tests. Good job I don’t drive faster than my guardian angel can fly!

i remember getting the jam out to try it but had better thoughts when i had spent all my paper round money buying the cd player still got nearly a thousand 78`s in the loft, and the don`t jump like the (un-scratch-able) cd`s
