I don't. I have absolutely NO use for a calendar so.. uh

Viper007Bond · January 8th, 2005, 06:47 PM

I think it'd rock to go for 1600x1200. Not many people run higher than that.

And for the record, I run 1600x1200x85Hz on my 19" CRT.

Overheat · January 8th, 2005, 10:05 PM

I'd prefer 1920x1440 personally.

Ultra_Kool_Dude · January 8th, 2005, 10:11 PM

Anything less than 5403x3429 is amateur.

Jostyrostelli · January 8th, 2005, 10:15 PM

Hey why not rent a Cinema [billion x zillion pixels] for a night and meet up and have a big forum-orgy!

Nogger · January 8th, 2005, 11:22 PM

lol. I'm missing the point of this thread so I will now give requests for what I want to see on the show...

Offroader vs Camel.

Finding the fastest sport - Footballers, tennis players , rugby players etc.

Having a professional drifter bring a car and perfrom rediculusy long drifts

Having a race between say a F430, a 911 GT3, a Gallardo and Ford GT and see what car is fastest round the track in reverse gear.

Showing a bloopers episode for once....

Calculate the body mass index and see if hammond is infact fatter for his length than Jeremy and thus being more evil to the baby seals.

Giving all the three presenters a set of new tires and a similar car and seeing who can blow a hole (wear them out) first...

TEST THE KOENIGSEGG CCR!

I bet I can think of hundreds of things I want to see.

I'd like to see Richard try out those seats you use for the short little children...

Somebody might point out to Jeremy that all the best racing drivers in the world are short. And that he is simply far to big to be practical. heh...

rofl

why didnt you guys test the CCR or the sagaris? a lot of people were looking forward to these two...

Cruzz563 · January 9th, 2005, 01:53 AM

The BBC guy is taking suggestions for the bbc.co.uk/topgear website, not the show, and not in an official capacity

But if any of the producers or hosts are lurking around...

And consider some of the suggestions!

I know. Read the first line in my post.

Anyway.

I actually (believe it or not) work part time as a car journalist. I was down at the Koenigsegg factory a few months ago and spoke to Christian. Basically what he said was that they will hand over their car as soon as the track is dry and in a good temperature. Same thing goes with the N-ring. That will be driven as soon as everything is optimum condition. As for the koenigsegg not beating the Zonda they told me that the lap time was rubbish. The Koenigsegg had been over a second faster than the Zonda all the time but when the show aired somehow it was slower.
Anyway. Expect to see the Koenigsegg in late season 6 or early season 7.

Might I add that I'm Swedish?

and that I'm referring to the CCR being tested later this year.

SiR_dude · January 9th, 2005, 04:04 AM

^Finally you come out of the closet!!

Welcome to the new Nogger - we have some other car journalists here.....please, please post pics of your visit to the Ko...g factory

Nogger · January 9th, 2005, 09:52 AM

These are really shitty quality though. These were just dummies sent to me by the photographer... anyway.

There are really many pics, however I only have these three on my computer. The photographer has the rest in very high resolution.

jasonchiu · January 9th, 2005, 10:03 AM

Is Nogger one of those compulsive liar types? Because it seems that way to me. Can't stand people like that, you never know where you stand with them.

Renesis · January 9th, 2005, 06:47 PM

Yeah maybe, just ignore him

Nogger · January 9th, 2005, 11:51 PM

I find that really annoying. I never trust those kind of people, even if they're only forum liars.
