So I tried using left handed shifters for the first time. (chq in vancouver is a GREAT arcade - 8 machines right shifters, 4 machines left shifters) Verdict:

da da da da da... I'm lovin' it!

Pedals are fabulous, but the left hand shifting takes some getting used to. Having played earlier versions of initial d helps.

I remember earlier in this thread MaxX had issues with left handed shifters (stopping him from joining a tourney), but does he still have those issues? (it's not too hard to get used to. sure, you shift wrong and you'll look like an idiot for the first few runs, but after a few, you get used to it)

My left arm is as gimp as arms get. Think of Mr. Burns from the simpsons, and you'll have an idea of what my arms look like. But it just takes some getting used to. If a n00b like me can do it, then I'm sure the guy who smoked me by 500+ meters can do it better.

it takes time to get use to it

i pulled a ac101 today, and jammed my pinkie into the shifter so i had to get someone else to shift for me until the pain went away
& its cute, people keep on challanging me cause they cant stand losing to a girl

btw to max - come wed after 4pm i guess? michael's working, and im gonna get him to restore some people's cards so yea (:

Jammed your pinkie into the shifter?
=O

how did that happen

hey not fair....
u MADE me jam my pinky into the shifter...><

I can't make it today, but I will be at Orbit tomorrow.

IF my data is on one of those machines, can you leave the card with Michael and I'll pick it up tomorrow?

Also post the data on the card if you can (rank, mileage).

wow....
i nvr knew the mt machine can store card data for THAT long...=\

lol chances are there are bigger pussies so tell em off they really cant do shit

ac they can store up to how ever long they want untill its overwritten by other data =D

ive been to many places like Shoppers world, Playdium, Pmall

but if find that Pmall has more battles then the other 2 o.o

aww so that was a half ass battle? D:

It was just probably done by someone with a big car, but little skill. Not to take anything away from your victory though.
