    Can anyone track down a blueprint for the Escort? Wagon, 4 door, 2 door, sedan, American, 2nd gen. I can't find one to save my life.

    I forget who was looking for Assetto Corsa when it was on sale earlier this year. AC is on sale again -50%.

    You need an Escort forum, I can look into it. BTW, ever find a cluster?

    I look like a mechanic right now, all oily and shit.

    Had to take the rear step off of our Dodge Sprinter at work today. It's going to be replaced with a tow hitch. The Freightliner Sprinter already has one on it, don't know why the Dodge needs one.

    Also, fuck Mercedes and their German engineering. The step didn't need about 30% of the bolts that heald it on.

    Oh, had to solder the entire wiring harness back together in the Dodge after my uncle drilled through it while putting the third seat in. The airbag circuit was the only thing that got fried. Airbags are for pussies anyways...

    Pretty much. We're concidering getting an actual Mercedes Sprinter (I dunno, collect the whole set I guess) if our box truck doesn't survive it's trip to the shop after my cousin blew it up. All he did was take it out of cruise control.

    The only shop vehicle we haven't had a problem with is our 2001 Ford E-350 van. 350,000 miles, starts up and runs perfect every time. Indicates reverse in park, drive in neutral, and so on and so forth though.

    Audio geekery vocabulary involved here.

    Lepai doesn't like an 8ohm load on one channel and 4ohm load on the other, it seems. Wondering why, the TA2020 chip seems to only function running at one impedance, and it being Class-T, seems to only get 12W/ch clean out of it, but the stock power supply is garbage, and even that may not let it fully acheive its rated 20W RMS power output.

    JVCs, I listened closer to them. Steep roll-on to 40Hz, crossover between "sub" 5 inch bass driver, and the 2 full range drivers is between 80-95Hz, crossed so seamlessly I couldn't tell. Sounds like there's a small bump in the response between 350-500, not much really. The only peak by ear I can hear is 8K. Not too bad for what they are.

    weird laptop speaker thing, definitely sounds pretty bright. Haven't listened in depth.

    Monoprices, all over the internet, look up a frequency response graph. Definitely warm, midbass bump, treble is accentuated.

    Of all here, the Monoprice 8323s are the bassiest, warmest, laptop speaker thing is bright and airy, and JVCs are smack dab in the sweet spot.

    TL;DR, I listened to things.

    So... I'm only going to get up / walk if I really need to, because that will cause a ton of pain. Even moving my feet causes a ton of pain. Time to lay in bed for a week.

    Would you mind tutoring a thread about "how to create BeamNG senarios?" Bombing through COS yesterday I was gripped by Baja.
    Why your muscles on pins and needles today, new exercise routine?

    I've decided on how to spend my money this year.
    So, 60 -ish € for the new NFS, 350 -ish € for a GTX 970, 80€ for a microphone and 150€ for a 750W Corsair power supply that may or may not fit in my case.

    Aaaaaand another bike of mine has been stolen. I just want to find the thief and fucking kill him in every fucking possible way. It's not even been 2 fucking months or this bike also get's stolen, and I'm not even in a ''dangerous'' or bad neighbourhood.
    20150504_180357_Richtone(HDR).jpg
    I don't even get why anyone would steal it, it's a cheap bike (only like 100 or 80 euros) and not even in fully good condition.
    Guess I'm buying an even worse bike next time and finding another place to park it.
    If any dutch person finds this bike, could they be so kind to tell me where they found it and who was using it?
