Re: AVF Burnout Boys - Team 2

as long as there is notice i'm available weekdays after 7pm, weekends anytime.

it's probably best if you list everyone on the team and pick a date and time and see if everyone says yes or no

Dunno will have to check with Phairplay, seems a bit harsh since its the first date proposed. Although Ive seen Roger post on other threads last night. I also sent him a PM yesterday. I think Teggs sent BT@Home a PM too but Im not certain.

If you would still like to take part. I would recomend posting in the other teams threads seeing if any would be willing to trade places.


Also Adcook i will send you PM here on AVForum the 5 routes i have choosen before your planned time.

GOOD LUCK guys and may the best driver win

Re: AVF Burnout Boys - Team 2

Just a quick warning guys - Firmware 2.76 is now live so I suggest we get our consoles updated early evening so there's no waiting around later on!

Good idea, usually back mine up before an update so can take a while, will set it off when I get in from work

Re: AVF Burnout Boys - Team 2

ONE MORE THING TO ADD
all teams will be racing the same routes so please when discussing the race please don't name the routes that were choosen. They are pre-programed routes created by the burnout team. Then there will be no way for the other members to get snicky practices in.

Re: AVF Burnout Boys - Team 2

I knew I was bad but not that bad!

Who on earth picked that car? I know we are all in the same boat but that is one of the worst cars in Burnout!


Good races, well organised, so thanks to all.


Note to self; Learn the short cuts!

Re: AVF Burnout Boys - Team 2

I can't beleive I won that - thought teggs was gonna walk it seeing as he was 20 secs ahead of everyone else on the first race - I still manage 2nd though even though I took I longest route aparently.

I'll have to crash more often, both those races I won I started by having a complete 'mare - I was last in both of them to start with!

thanks to adcook for keeping track of the scores and sorting us out last night, pity about the bug that kept changing our cars for us but at least it added a little suspense to final standings.

oh and those smugshots of teggs had me in stitches!

Re: AVF Burnout Boys - Team 2

Awesome race but I need to add a little dig at the car as well. By the last race, I had lost the will to live and crashed about every hundred yards!!
Great race tho!! The suspense and pressure was quite immense for me!
