Quoting: whizseI don't know if I can condone underage gambling
Well it was the final year of high school so only some of us were underage (18 here in Aus for gambling/drinking/smoking).......

Quoting: whizseNo complaints about how you spent the winnings though!
LOL....... yeah I did spend it wisely...... I played both games almost to death..... And to think...... In Australia...... Carmageddon was released completely uncut with a MA15+ rating...... Which at the time was the highest rating a video game could get here in Aus.......... Yes....... We didnt get a R18+ rating for video games until 2013..... Even though the way its worded they can still almost ban any game for any reason they want.......

Quoting: whizseI fear there's not just an age gap, but a big gap when it comes to taste in liveries too. I do love the emerald green 37, fell in love with it in an instant.
See ive never liked that emerald green (I dont like green in general my favourite colour is yellow as you will see in next weeks post)...... Cool story on that link though...... Thanks for sharing that.....

Also back when I use to do RC car and truck racing I ran an entire fleet of blue and yellow liveries very similar to that of the BTCC Renault Laguna, WRC Renault Megane Maxi and the Dick Johnson Racing Ford Falcon

Quoting: whizseI have Garfield Kart from the giveaway but the whole "best game ever" thing confused me. When I learned that was a meme I assumed the game was really poor and filed it off as Steam library filler. Guess I should give it another chance!
I've heard it said that the original Garfield Kart isn't as good - "Furious Racing" is apparently a remaster of sorts that fixes it up. That version is the one I enjoyed.

Quoting: KlaasI found it very interesting, too.
Thankyou!

Quoting: KlaasYour conclusion basically confirms my suspicions about the bundle – I don't regret not buying it.
Yeah, I don't think I would've recommended the bundle to most people. I just happen to have a high tolerance for janky Mario Kart knock-offs, haha. (I got All-Star Fruit Racing in a sale back when I had a Switch, and found it oddly charming in its low-budget way, so I was actually a bit disappointed that it seems to be broken on Linux currently.)

Those are awesome! But the question is, did you run an RC-car gambling-ring with them?

Quoting: KlaasIt's a nice green – but I don't like the nestle connection.
No, can't say that I'm a fan of Nestle myself. There's lot of racing sponsor with, shall we say, a checkered past...🏁
Back in the day almost every car had "Marlboro" written large all over. Actually, Nestle might be worse.

Thanks for the images (dick pic included) I was ready to totally write of yellow liveries but I think your RC cars might have won me over.

I will however to wait to make up my mind until after hearing your story. Be advised, if it involves a yellow brick road I may already have heard it.

No..... But I did run an underground Beyblade gambling ring.......
Just kidding..... Im old enough to have missed the Beyblade craze....... Tamagotchis where the big thing when I finished high school.......

Quoting: whizseThanks for the images (dick pic included)
Its not everyday I get thanked for one of my Dick pics........ Usually they just get laughed at.......

Follow the yellow brick road........
Im like the Scarecrow...... If I only had a brain......
