I was reading up on the DMCC West again and started to look at the prize amounts.
For each event:
Winner - $1000
2nd - $750
3rd - $500
Kinda low? Yea. And get this:
Entry fee - $1000
The Entry / Win cash flow is pretty equal, but it's still low. Until I found out why:
The championship winner (Highest Average from all events), wins a Formula-D License. 2nd-4th get Formula Pro-Am licenses.
Basically meaning that yeah, they can go ahead and jump straight into the American Formula-D Championships and battle against drivers like Darren McNamara and Chris Forsberg. I guess this is the reason the prizes and entry fees are as low as they are. Paying $1000 and possibly getting the chance to go to the big leagues...not a bad deal. Until you have to pay the odd 30k entry for Formula-D...good luck with that!

Stone Temple Pilots
I forgot to post about this, and it's not very new news now.
One of, if not my favorite band came out with a new Self titled album.
Yet again from them, an excellent album with more of a classic feel to it. These guys never get old, and their style remains. I have nothing more to say, as the words are in the lyrics, listen to them.

Bumper Bitching
A quick post. If you haven't been paying attention or visiting recently, there's been some controversy over there on the shoutbox ----> about this do dad:
Rice, totally fucking riced. Right?
Look how ugly it is, it looks like a piece of shit.
Fact of the matter is: It's no different than you converting a Veilside bodykit from Juiced 2. Veilside is made completely for looks, with some seriously wtf styling. The bumper on my 240sx, a Uras Diffuser, is used for traction, the exact same way a spoiler provides it. Sure, it may not do this in-game, but if that was the case why the fuck would any of you add hood scoops, bodykits in general, spoilers, anything.
A months or 2 ago, almost all of you guys were blowjobbing this guy and talking about how epically awsome he was:
Ha...fucking ricer.

Shoutbox Warriors
Kassik: Yes, he is a very aggressive person in most of what we see, and sometimes can also be very arrogant. On the other side, he can be quiet and fun to drift with.
DriftEE: Somehow always ends up bringing 1 of 2 topics up in any of his arguements: Ego, or Jealousy. Maybe by worrying so much about both, they have grown on him? Used to be fun to drift with if you reverse a few years.
Javaboy: If you didn't have the opportunity to change sides in the middle of a way, who's would you be on?

Guy pulls a Kuroi
This video was on the Driftworks home page, but it's just too good to pass up on posting here. Figure that a Onevia, same car as Kuroi, would pull...a Kuroi

Re: Mod Failure
Quicky, pointed out by Gred.
That manana-sized s13 that was uploaded, apparently wasn't actually by the Tom2 we know, someone just used his nickname to upload it on gtainside. And yeah, the whole thing was a convert as suspected; only from Forza 3, giving this mysterious uploader the thought that he had the "most best s13" to come to GTA..
Still a failure.

Flying Lamborghini
This is a video that I saw a long time ago, but I have to say it's gotta be one of the cooler videos involving sports cars. Dubai, land of the rich, land of dreams, and here some guy in a Lambo hitting a speed bump at high speeds! A nice turnout too, where his rear end is flown up in the air, lands, and he keeps on going!

It appears as tho the "JDM Rusted Hood" trend has finally hit SA. After seeing this trend appear 2 years ago, it was not only ugly, but why the hell would you put a rusted hood on your car in the first place? Well, it's now come to SA.
Sorry, but if you want that type of look, just make the damn car out of wood.
And then we are faced with the next Noedel?
"
All in one colour --- Generally cars do come in one color?
-Grill (chrom) --- Adds to the "Style Points" counter in Zmod
-skrit's (Chrom)
-mark's (chrom)
-Antene --- Damn that's tight
-Boonet (rust) --- gay
-Roof rack --- for your spare tires, or..?
-Stickers --- 5..10..15..20....100hp!
-Lights --- Uh...
-Rims (Kamil)
-Exhaust --- ...
-door handles in car colour --- Good for those really dark nights where you can't see anything, now to attempt getting into the car!
-Addons --- Interior neon of course.
"
ESSO stickers are always cool, right?

More Mod Fail!
"1990 Nissan 200SX 1.8 Turbo"
Now, if you read the first one, you will know that that S13 was the size of the Manana. SA's smallest car. Well, this one is the opposite. It's actually too big for it's size.
And there is false advertising!
1.8 Turbo = CA18
The engine model on the car = KA24
1990 = Zenki Generation
Zenki = PIGNOSE!! >:0
Pignose:
LIES PEOPLE! LIES!
Actually it's just that people want to put out mod after mod after mod and don't care about it's quality, or if the info on it is correct because they really, really just don't care, and don't need to. I was bored, created this, end of story.
