Keep it British tbh. (with a bit of Swedish for good measure).

The Farboud and 'segg are my favourite cars in the game. With my Murcielago thrown in for good measure.

Enzo's are so common. And ugly.

The Ascari's my favourite - not sure about A classes yet, since if I go too fast my 128MB 6800 GT can't keep up and I fall into oblivion (not sure if it's the nvidia driver issue or lack of graphic card memory).

Agree about the Enzo's. Much prefer the classics, and have succumbed to buying 2 Italian cars - 288 GTO and a Muira.

Seem to find different classes of players, dependent on time. At 5-6pm there's loads of A class drivers, at 11-12pm the classic drivers and bikers come out (real life takes over between 6 and 11pm).

A temporary fix for the high levels of bass is to drop the sound hardware acceleration down to basic in dxdiag. I no longer get headaches when wearing headphones ;).

Cheers it really did fix the Bassy sound issue and now sounds don't crack no more!! Although sounds will still dissapear sometimes but quickly came back on after visiting a showroom.

Just a quicky, can you change the interior colour at the paint shop also or is it fixed once you got the car? And where do you get custom rims?

I just did a challenge worth £100,000 where you have to drive from the east to the west (via north) in under 22 minutes.

Did it in 22 minutes 2 seconds. The police are SO ANNOYING. I'll crash into someone to get wanted, then I'll be doing 240mph and another police car will ram me off the road (and because I hit them) that upgrades me to the next wanted level.
 
that upgrades me to the next wanted level

Damned irritating isn't it.

Not as irritating, however, as the traffic which swerves across you, if you're driving towards them - so you're on the far left, on the verge, passing oncoming traffic then one will swerve across you and BOOM!
 
When you're trying to do 8 miles in about 2 minutes, doing +240mph is the only option and that usually involves crashing into several other road vehicles and thus getting the police on you.

Well I have old Lambo bought bought a new Enzo for its speed to handling ratio. Plus its basically my money making car doing the 75k speed race made over 2 million on it :D. Want a Mclaren F1 now. But reserved a Shelby Cobra Daytona for a cool million. Just gotta wait now.

Or as irritating as when you doing a car delivery mission that's 20 miles, in a slow class G car, 0.5Miles to go and one of the AI cars turns left in front of you without indicating (which they almost always do)

Ghey!

When i start this game up, the screen flashes and stutters very bad for a minute, i have a BFG Geforce 7600GT card and using forceware 84.21 drivers, what's the best current drivers coz i haven't updated them in quite a while.
Also, is my GFX card HD compatible as i heard the 7 series were.

Thanks.
