Not a penguin but another time waster - perhaps good for crosswinds in a GT40????

There's gonna be a need for counseling, due to this link.
Just for the hell of it, I checked to see who's online.
11 guys happened to be "reading" "If you get bored", at one time! You know who you are! Get some help! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Pete,
Gran Turismo 2 on PS1, and Gran Tursmo 3 on PS2. In both games you can buy a roadgoing GT40 and build it up to a race car, or you can win 1075 which is faster than the race car that you build. You can then either race them in sprints or endurance races with pit stops. The realism is incredible. To go really quick you need to set up your suspension/ratios/traction/etc correctly and select the appropriate tyers. The tyers even start off cold, and then wear out as you race.

Obviously I'm still a big kid at heart [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Best I was able to get was 323.5.. after hours of wasted time. I think that this must be the max distance.

Pete, a little game called Gran Turismo 3. You can drive the GT40 in Gran Turismo 2, but that's for the PS1. Gran Turismo 3 is specificly for Play Station 2. Have fun "unlocking" the GT40, if took me FOREVER to get it!!!!

P.S In Gran Turismo 4 you can drive the new GT. GT4 Prolouge is out now (a preview of the game, but still very good fun!)

Re: If you get bored.....

Try this version of the smack the penguin game. It is really booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring. www.korenwolf.net/pingu/rocket-up-the-arse.html but the scores are much higher. I got 12888.9 on the first hit.

A little hint. The higher the penguin bounces the higher the score.
