I hate this discussion, because i've heard it far to many times. Thread locked, because theres no need to continue it.

KING OF THE BEACH: DANNY MACKEY AND METAL MULISHA! Danny finished second to Mark Colineri in Racing and tied for the freestyle win with Michael Murray, both scoring a 24!

We'll be going back to the AIM Chat, for some reason atleast 3 people are having problems joining the SM Chat. So hop on AIM if your racing.

7est/6cst.

KING OF THE HILL from Wildwood will be racing tonight @ 7est/6cst!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Unfortunately tonights event will be postponed until tomorrow night. I'm going to be having some company coming in tonight that i haven't seen in quite awhile, and i just now heard about it. My apologies to everyone, and i hope to see you all tomorrow night.

PC, and anyone else that cares, I asked Tom Meents about that particular incident when I interviewed him for Allmonster.com awhile back, heres what Tom had to say: JR – In the past, a lot of people have thought that you have came off a little cocky, and arrogant in some of your interviews. Also, some people don’t like the fact that you tap into other trucks during your freestyle runs. Do you have anything you would like to say to those people? TM – I’ve never intentionally hit somebody’s truck. If anybody watches my runs, or sees them on T.V., or watches them live. I like to hit the floor with a lot of speed. Go back and forth with a lot of speed, get a lot of air and fly further than anybody. When I land, it’ll rebound, a lot of times it’s a matter of the floor not being long enough for me to get the truck slowed down. I like to have more floor speed than anybody if possible. I’ve never hit anybodies truck on purpose. I have tapped a few trucks. I’ve apologized to every one of the drivers. Perfect case would be this year in Atlanta. I hit the big jump, my foot actually slipped off the brake pedal. I missed a lot of valuable space, because I was going higher than anybody, and further than anybody, I bumped (Allen) Pezo and (Scott) Hartsock. I apologized to both of them. I didn’t mean to. I didn’t cause any damage to them. I can’t recall ever doing any damage to them, ever. JR – Some of the people I’ve talked to, are more upset over what happened with Jim Jack and Reptoid in Jacksonville 2004. TM- Well, if you actually knew the whole story about that. He came down to me. I backed back in my parking place. He drove down to where I had already backed in and parked. He pulled right up to my door and blew smoke all over me. *Laughs* Ok? Now since that point. He’s done a ton of complaining about it, and I really haven’t said anything about it. The fact of the matter was, I run over tires. I pulled up to his tire and went to run over it. He gassed ahead on me, that’s what hit the fender. It had nothing to do with me; I had a clear shot to go over his tire without hitting his body. JR – I figured there would be a little bit more to that story. TM – Yeah, he provoked me. He started it. Am I arrogant and cocky? No. I often get tired of being second fiddle to Digger fans. I’m out here right now, working on my own truck. I do that all the time. I haven’t gotten anything given to me in this sport, and I’ve worked really hard to get there. I worked from 8 in the morning yesterday till midnight. Is it hard for me to go up against a team that has 7 trucks when I have two? Yeah. If you look at any of the freestyles I win, very seldom do I have one given to me. I have to go a good 30% more than them just to win typically.

Replica trucks only for this one Steve.

The first King of the Beach event i did was a blast and those that competed in it will probably remember how much fun the two day event was. This time around though we will only be doing a one day event at Wildwood's famed S-Course, which was recently released by Tom. The winner of the King of the Beach title gets their name posted in the KOTH Stats Thread as a King of the Beach champion, alongside last years winner Ethan Dean. This event, for me, has been long awaited. I'm happy to announce this will also be the first event to feature the Sim-Monsters V4 trucks! Replica trucks ONLY for this event please.

Welcome Back Mr. Burks, good to see you around again.

No. All v3 addons would have to be converted to work in v4.

Or when you downloaded, you didn't get a complete download of the pack. Re-Download it.

Thats great and all Hot Shoe, looks fantastic. However i think the new V4 trucks will have a difficult time making that big center jump. Their geared differently and take a bit longer to speed up so you might consider shrinking that just a tad bit.

Show them if you got them!

Excellent work Tom, thats fantastic.

I'm so sick and tired of hearing this from people, that i honestly get angry everytime someone mentions it. Here is the flat out bottom line, If one person could have waited and not hacked another persons computer to gain access to the V4 pack: Every single one of you would have a beta pack of trucks right now to play around with. One person ruined that for everybody by stealing the pack and passing it around like it was theres. Your tired of us dangling V4 trucks infront of your face Stephen? I suggest you look at the name of this topic again. V4 is a project that a majority of the staff and Mods have put a great deal of time into, who can blame them for wanting to post photos and videos of their hard work? Whats next, are you guys going to go to Monster Jam and tell them "You guys have all those trucks, how about you share them with us. . .your taunting us, we wanna drive!" Yes, those were the rules. However, those were created during the very first packs inception. I actually thought this time around we should post photos and videos to keep the excitement for the pack up. Its worked, alot of people are excited for the pack. Then theres people like you, and about 2 or 3 others that just have to post about it and be a buzzkill about things. My suggestion to you and any other people thinking the same thing is keep your thoughts to yourself, you'll get the pack when its finished. Or keep talking and keep making the people working on the pack angry. Ruin the morale of everybody working on it, so they stop working on it and it never gets released. Your choice.

PM, that truck just looks flat out amazing so far. I can't wait to see it out on the track.

PS3 controllers are very hard to get working with ROR. I had mine working for awhile. I can't remember exactly what i did to get it to work but i know i had to leave my PS3 on and basically restart the computer everytime i joined a game to make it work right. Theres a way to make a PS2 controller work, but you'll need an adapter, its much easier.

If your V3 pack is working, and other packs are not. Its likely that you haven't taken the contents of the other packs and installed them inside the v3 truck pack zip file.

I'm loving the MTM2 throwback tracks you guys are doing. I'd love to see some of the old SPHRA tracks be remade for ROR. Alot of those were very competitive tracks and i'm proud to say i won at a few of them.

Show em' if ya got em'.
