  • Mini Arse Number Two
    The second Arse2010 event, at the Top Gear Test Track in the Mini Cooper, took place on Friday 5th.  With Byron turning up late, having been busy playing with his dolls, it was left to Great Uncle Peter to man the tombola.  Once he’d shown everyone his famous ping-pong ball trick, we were all set to go.

  • Well looky what we have here...
    Could that be? An Official Pacecar of Simjunkies? Wait... Who's listed as the driver? Animal? Looks like a bit of a squirly character doesn't he... Rumor has it he has a Saleen kind of painted the same way as that BMW. Huh, I wonder why???

Game Reviews

  • RACE On
  • GTR Evolution

RACE OnThe first thing I did when I launched the game was to test out the new US track racers. I expected heavy “truck feeling” cars with bad brakes, tail happy as a dancer in a rap video, but boy was I wrong.  I am not saying that is a bad thing, although I must admit that I miss the feel of losing control in an overpowered car like the US Muscle Cars.  Read more...

GTR EvoSimbin was kind enough to supply SJ with a pre-release copy of the long awaited GTR Evolution, so that we could have a server up and running ready for the game’s Steam release, which is imminent. Since it was lying about, I thought it would be a good idea for someone to try it out, and I saw it first, so I appointed myself official SJ reviewer.  Read more...

Hardware Reviews

  • Fanatec Clubsport Pedals
  • Rinoseat Revolution
  • TrackIR 5

PedalsI had seen the Fanatec pedals mentioned on insidesimracing.com and they had spoken very highly of the pre-production prototype that they had been testing. I looked at the CST pedals and was forced to make a decision between them and the wife’s anger (call me chicken and see if I care!) The Fanatecs were at a price point I could just about get away with if I pretended they were a “special” treat, so I did the whole “leap of faith” thing and ordered them...  Read more...

 

Rino SeatPicture the scene, the corner approaches fast, but he's not worried. Smoothly, he applies the brakes, and the ferocious, snarling engine note of his classic racing car dies away. The tyres squeal their dissent, but he's not worried; it's all under control. With a flick of his hand, the car changes gear; and again; and again.  Read more...

TIR LogoI have been lucky enough to get hold of Naturalpoint's new TrackIR5 to test. I have wanted a TrackIR for a long time, but never got around to buying one. I wonder why, because now that I have used one for about 2-3 weeks, I cannot really think of gaming without it. I will get back to that later.  Read more...

  • Scientists Baffled
    World renowned scientists from the Institute of Engorged Tackle Nibblers in Stockholm have been unable to answer the question on everyone's lips: "Why are we Caspar?"  Recent tests have confirmed that certain groups and a large number of cute puppies are becoming Caspar. In a recent poll up to a third of those who expressed a preference said that they were in some way, Caspar. Some of...

  • They Took to the Streets
    A strange phenomenon on the streets outside the SJ headquearters was reported to me on a late Wednesday in early January.  People started to wander rootlessly amongs the streets outside the building believed to be the SJ headquarters.
