    Well of course it isn't limited to that. You might be cruising down the road and the driveshaft falls out or something. You just never know whats been screwed with and what hasn't.

    Okay then. Remove the engine and trans. Obtain 1 cylinder go kart. Replace 1 cylinder engine with V8. If it doesn't fit, make it fit.

    Or, you know, get a normal car off Craigslist. Speaking of normal cars, my sister asked me to look on Craigslist for her.. (She has an 00 Passat that cost her 2 grand in repairs last month.)

    I'm not basic.

    Get her to buy something big and hard to see out of so she'll hit stuff.

    I found an 87 Blazer for $200. The description only says "new 2.8 engine, 5speed 2wd" and there's one pic. It looks pretty decent but for $200 I doubt that it's fully working.

    I also found a 2000 Ford Crown Vic Police Interceptor for a grand. Looks to be in pretty good condition.

    If you do go on Craigslist to look for a car, don't be a moron like me and look for one that's popular in the tuner community. All I wanted was a bone stock '02 Subaru WRX sedan in World Rally Blue and I got 2 stanced cars, many WRXs with simple mods on them, and I even had a Bugeye with an EJ207 motor swap from a '07 STi in it. All for more money than I'd ever like to spend on my first car. But at least I know that I need $5K if the car I'm looking for popped up at a local dealership.

    Just a random question for everyone, but does anyone know what the NG in BeamNG stands for? I have wondered for a while but really do not know.

    Next Generation, or Node Game. I can't remember.

    Also damn, sophomore year is already a lot more demanding than freshman year, but the first week is always hectic because of summer reading projects.

    I would think it's the second one, so its full name is "Beam Node Game." And if you think sophomore year is already pretty demanding, you've just barely scratched the surface. You're in for a pretty rough ride, kid. Hold on tight.

    It's Beam Next Generation.
    So far, I'm having an easier time in 9th grade than I did 8th.

    Sophomore year was my hardest year of high school. Junior year was really chill and so far Senior year is almost too easy. I only go to school from 11AM to 2:30PM.

    Ok, if nobody has seen Jeremy Clarkson's Ice Bucket Challenge video yet, it's absolutely golden!



    You're welcome.

    *EDIT*

    Oh yeah, and he also nominated James and Richard to do it, too. I feel like one of them will also nominate The Stig as well. I can't wait.

    First of all, welcome to the madness. Second of all, this belongs in Questions and Support and not here. Third, there really isn't a topic on this thread at all. And fourth, you're not the only one. Somebody else is having the same problem as you. However, I don't have a solution for you. I'm sure somebody will give you an answer once they find one. But for now, it's just a waiting game for you. Sorry. It might help if you provide a pic, though.

    noticed that Microsoft is bringing back the start menu... hoping they still have the windows 8 metro like start screen as an option for those who liked it, as i can't stand the start menu, either that, or someone makes a classic shell like thing for windows 9, except instead of adding the start menu, it add's the start Screen from windows 8/8.1, otherwise i'm staying with 8.1 until either A. they bring back the start screen or B. they stop supporting windows 8.1

    From the pictures that are currently out i think the start menu in windows 9 is going to be awesome. I would really like to have some live tiles on their for weather etc. Im still on win7 since i cba modifying windows 8 to my tastes when windows 7 does most of everything i need.

    The new start menu is a merged, smaller version of both start menus:

    It's the best of both worlds and Metro apps can even be opened as a window, nobody can complain about this.
