  3. Good battle Darin ..good job holding them back for so long. It looked like you locked up and understeered into the corner. Ashan was already turning into the corner when you were locking up and had already committed to the corner by the looks of it. On this occasion It looked like a racing incident to me. Did see you going sideways in duke street!! Would like to see the other camera angle to see how you corrected.. Either way I'm glad a a scooby won!

  8. @nano31 and @schiffer thankfully I do not understand a word you tow guys are on about Thanks everyone for all the inputs here and for the two pals who even called me to impart some knowledge and experience. It certainly was all very educational for me. Much appreciated. I'm glad to say that I went for the LG 42 in the end. Like kush's advice I suddenly saw a Singer 47" non-Smart 3D LED next to the 40" Samsung 6 series and for about an hour I was convinced that size in fact does matter . I thought to heck with the Smart features, 7" is a massive difference and 70k saving was as attractive. However the longer I sat there the more I noticed the difference in the picture quality of the two. This was due to the superior "Frame Rate" in the Samsung I was told. 400 vs 100. Seriously the quality of sales people is so poor. They should have educated me about this months earlier with simply going on with "Samsung has the best quality" mantra. Regarding the reliability issues I did a more inquiring and found people who had recently bought LG TVs and have had them for 2 and 3 years and were very happy. And further research showed that in the recent past LG had many issues with LCD TVs. TBH I never like the LG brand for some reason maybe because it had what I thought a crappy name called Goldstar. From the time LED's hit here I wanted to buy Samsung. Never liked Abans too. Being a stockbroker by profession I've compared Singer SL with them many times and I know which is the better managed and investor friendly company in every way. If a company is less investor friendly the chances are that they will be less customer friendly too. Therefore the other SoftLog was totally off my list. Anyway yesterday for the umpteenth time I went around to have a final look. Finally went to see the LG again. It matched the Samsung 40 in every tech feature and bettered it in one. I can't recall what it was nor do I know what it does, but it was nice to know. However the clinchers were the extra 2" on the LG (incredibly quite a visual difference) and the Rs. 13k price deficit. Paid and signed up, they said they would deliver and install it this evening. However they surprised us by delivering it yesterday itself. Installation happens today! Really excited.

  9. Darin,mate don't get me wrong I'm a big fan of yours...but wasn't that just a racing incident?It seemed that you locked up first and skidded straight and Ashan had no where to go...

  11. Why do these Sinhala commentators keep trying to give sermons? Here is nerve wracking epic battle between Darin, Ashan and Janaka and some F*ktard sinhala commentator cuts in and preaches the differences between a Subaru and an Evo! Whether its Cricket or motor racing, these F*ktards are adamant in doling out their idiotic sermons on their merits of virtuous racing/cricketing instead of focusing on the game! Reciting "eyai visheshatthwaya" "eyai visheshatthwaya" on and on like some damn parrot. I wonder if any of these nitwits have even got in to a car in the first place Can somebody please pass a message to these f*ktards that next time, please shave your head and enroll in to a temple as monks, instead of trying to be wanna be cricketing/racing commentators? Thank goodness for the English commentators (esp that lady)

  15. i braked late and the car lockerd up but finally when i did turn it in i got hit from behind so hard the engine stalled. And lap 1 going into duke street i got hit so hard u can see the car going sideways i dont know how i held it together. anyway enough of this hitting bs, and i ve been controlling my actions alot recently and trying to be the educated individual i am. one more time someone hits my car intentionally i ll settle it then and there even if it means getting banned and ending my racing carreer. frankly everyone close around me thinks i m stupid to race with people who dont act like proffesionals. And handling pressure is all part of the racing game and i couldve driven 100 laps like that as its not sebbastian vettel following me, that would be pressure. Last year the same individual overtook me on the yellow flag at the same corner and said he didnt see. And wanted me to protest, i dont protest and win races. janaka dias drove really well and i enjoyed him chasing me for 7 laps, sometimes i braked so early to slow him down but he always avoided contact. he deserved the win. thanks to all the al members for there support and encouragement
