Ripper's Majic Bus

Hi Skar,

I've been good thanks. I'll have to catch up with you on MSN, I noticed you sign on last night, but I was just off to bed.

How's yourself?

I'll have to post up some links to what I've been doing since Motorcity. As I can't drive like a loon in MCO I had to start doing it in real life in my own car on track. I've got some great video footage from in car and following.

I can't believe I've only just found my way onto this forum full of ex MCO lovers. So many names I recognise and remember beating.

Glad I kept my sigs now.

I'm doing well! Busy though. I could have sworn I told you about this place! I've checked out your website a few times in the last year, and it looks like you're having fun with that Clio.

I'm on MSN during my daytime all day long, so hit me up!

Oh, and why were the OT times on Midtown about 5 seconds slower than all the other servers each week?

Likely due to my times helping bugger up the Midtown average?

Lets see I started and raced Uptown since day one.

I turfed on xroads, and a little on cca.

Never raced on midtown.

I was Nfzen on all servers except xroads. I really wanted to run anonomous there, however it didnt take long for my secret persona to be figured out. =/

Because we were literally a ghetto! I think the people in Midtown were more worried about shootin' the breeze in gen chat and bidding on auctions than they were about racing. Heck the only reason I raced was to help out my club. And the obvious lvling. 'Course it was really hard to turf because a 28.8 k connection tends to create a little lag. Oh how I would have loved to have raced just one race with dsl or cable :evil:


Just a side note. If this whole new MCO-type game that EA is supposedly planning comes to fruition, you all realize how cool it'll be to be in a Majicbus club there? I can wait to rub bumpers with you all. And spam the hell out of you while you're in a race mwahahahahahaha

You would have to be able to catch us first.

And the challenge has been thrown down. Talk about anticipation!

Being in the UK it was always hard to find people online to race without staying up till silly hours. Also I couldn't get broadband where I lived so I played at work mostly, which caused me problems with the now ex misses!!!

I finally got broadband around the same time the servers were shut down.

That was Uptown, and put on by me and BCR. if you mean the dukes of hazard one? my 2nd greatest achievement in that game, if I dont say so myself. my greatest achievement of course was keeping Ripper in my rear view most of the time.

and I was on uptown, pretty much 100%.

Then off for a quick blast out and back at DMR. Nothing like it.

Uptown.

Uptown 98% of the time.

Did have personas on X-roads and CCA (same name as Uptown).

Really only did 2 things on X-roads and CCA after "lvl'ing" up.
Made top 5 times in Open and Sponsored trials and ran tournaments.

I belive you won a Tourny or two that I put on with Team Mopar.

Jesus it costs a lot to ship stuff overseas

Sorry about that.

4 in all found out that its expensive.

Scale 1:18 '57 Ranchero (1st place in Ranchero Run 3).
Scale 1:24 '69 Super Bee (2nd place (sorry cant remember the name of the tourny, but it was all mopar, hosted by Gene)) I think Tibur from Sweden won it btw.
Scale 1:24 '32 Ford Rod NASCAR style. (2nd place in a (E-class?) 32 Ford tourney) I think Kevin won that one. EDIT: Doh! Color me stupid. I just had to look at Gig's sig pic to see what the tourney name was.
2 MCO T-Shirts. That was a Forum contest (I think 20 questions about MCO in general and the players on Uptown).

Thanks guys
