I think you need to spend some time over at BrickArms and spend some time with the Lego Digital Designer. [brickarms.com] http://ldd.lego.com/

A Lego Minecraft (game) would be a fairly simple Mod, IMO. It would just be a texture pack for the world, and a alt character model for Steve.

Why the Modern Warfare nod? If anything there was more Halo references than COD...

Is it like a clunking/grinding? Or is it a loud whirring?

You don't have to kill the engine to run the starter on a bike. Most of them employ a constant mesh starter; so thumbing the starter while the engine is running does nothing adverse.

I run into similar problems when riding motorcycles. Most of the time the starter trick will be enough to trigger the signal, but ever once in a while it just wont work no matter what I do. I then have to move forward hoping the car behind gets what I'm doing, or flail madly when they don't.

I think it's more a matter of "WOW" than a matter of merit. Both styles of driving require a unique set of skills, but one just looks more impressive than the other. Sure Hot Laps are cool and to the car guys they are the Gran Fomage; but the average person just looks at it and says, "meh, what's so cool about that?".…

When it comes to ice you really do become a passenger. Granted the above video appears to simply be improper snowy hill technique and no understanding of which wheels drive your car.

If you watch closely when it pans through the drivers you can see them feathering the throttle and watching their car.

I've ridden in Icon for the last ~4 years, and they have different fits for different folks. Their newest top of the line jacket (Overlord/Overlord Prime) fits wonderfully tight. Even some of the "looser" stuff (Patrol) holds up just fine in a spill. I had a decent high side last month and landed square on my…

Um... not CE certified? Maybe some of their "cheap" gloves, but all of their jackets are CE armored. They had a rocky start to be sure, but their stuff from the last 5+ years has been solid.

You'd think people would know not to mess with the French on equipment technicalities. Does no one remember the '66 Monte Carlo Rally!? I wouldn't be born for another 20 years, but I know the story.

I agree with this statement. As much as the "for the Ring" performance mentality breeds amazing sports cars, they tend to be harsh masters when taken on everyday streets (see: Top Gear). The inclusion of the SHAWD system is a wonderful idea! Why? Because it doesn't attempt to replace the ICE engine, it serves to…

Also known as the Nightmare of Akina.

The asshatry came in taking the realism request one step further in suggesting the OP just go get a real car if they wanted "realistic" racing. It's a more common of a comment on Jalopnik than Kotaku. The guise being you can have a beater auto-crosser for around the cost of a competitive Sim PC racing getup (box,…

Or if you really wanted a real experience you could you know spend money on a cheap car and track days...

A Troll is a prankster, nothing else.

I don't mind if people cruising in the middle lane are going the speed limit, but if they are slow, and being passed on both sides and don't get over, then I start to be annoyed at them.

If you are being an attentive driver it doesn't matter what lane you are in. IMO but the Middle lane is the most un-safe since you can be "attacked" from both sides at any time.

It appears as though Will.I.Am could become the Orange County Choppers of the car world.
