My top 10 RHCP albums (yes, there are only 10...so they're in order of preference)

10. One Hot Minute (1995) (I never hated it, and it's actually rather good. It's just apparent that Dave Navarro just didn't...fit.)
9. The Red Hot Chili Peppers (1984) (A great piece of work from the early days, I just find Andy Gill's production a bit cold and tinny.)
8. Mothers' Milk (1989) (The only reason it's so low is because it's the only one I don't own...I do like a lot of the songs on it though)
7. By the Way (2003) (Why so low? Because it's just Californication 2...and I listened to it to death when I was younger.)
6. The Uplift Mofo Party Plan (1987) (I love this one...masterful guitar and some great punky angles in there)
5. I'm With You (2011) (Loads of people hated this one...but Klinghoffer's a great guitarist and suits this introspective album nicely. The B-side released are top-notch too.
4. Californication (1999) (This changed RHCP's direction. A welcome return for Mr. Frusciante, with some touching guitar.)
3. Freaky Styley (1985) (FUNK! This has George Clinton written all over it. I LOVE IT.)
2. Stadium Arcadium (2006) (Easy-listening stadium rock. So good, it's on 2 CDs.)
1. Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991) (This is THE ONE. The album that brought fame and changed the face of the band. Funk-punk blended with some balladry. Nice.

Your lack of RPG's, shootemups and flight-sims is apalling

So let's say that...

10)Xenosaga (all three games, because full story)
9)Wipeout Fusion (the last of the original anti-gravity racing league)
8)The Need For Speed: Most Wanted (last of the true full arcade NfS of old)
7)Castlevania: Lament of Innocence (the beggining of the epic tale)
6)Medal of Honor: Frontline (last of the true MoH games)
5)R-Type Final (heir of the long-lost art of shootemups, tons of ships to play)
4)Final Fantasy X (another last: the last good FF game ever and last time I've seen a summoning system that actually works)
3)TOCA Race Driver 3 (why, oh why Codemasters didn't continued with this godly gameplay with the lackluster GRID?)
2)Ace Combat (4-5-Zero, stunning visuals, full aerial combat, gorgeous planes)
1)Gran Turismo 4 (let's face it: no other petrolhead would put another racing game on the top)

Ten of the best female F1 drivers of all time

3. Desire' Wilson - DNQ but won a British Aurora F1 race

5. Davina Galica - DNQer, can never remember her, yet one of as many as TWO female drivers to attempt to qualify for the 1976 British GP
6. Maria di Villota - test driver for Marussia, nasty crash leading to loss of an eye
7. Susie Wolff, nee Stoddart - Williams test driver in days of limited testing and married to member of management/shareholder
8., 9., 10. - Ermmm, errrrr, any suggestions?

Katherine Legge participated in last Minardi test in 2005 at Vallelunga.

The lack of Burnout 3 is damaging my health

I didn't include it because Most Wanted was a better game (licensed cars, story mode and the best handling of the franchise). The issue with Burnout is that after a couple of tries, it become truly boring. NfS Most Wanted, A Criterion Game is a clear example of that.

But let's not get derailed so now...

Top 10 Innovative Ideas for racing

10)F1 Wing Cars (variety is the name of the game. I miss those times... )
9)F1 Electronics aids (faster and safer cars banned just for "reducing cost" BS that's not even applied today)
8)The original WSC Championship (Porsche, Jaguar, Mazda, Nissan and many more)
7)F1's Brabham Fan Car (lol at you, ground effects... until I got banned)
6)Chaparral 2J (because "lol I win with jet engine and effect fans"... until banned)
5)F1 Lotus 88 (brilliant modular chassis that should've run... only to be banned
4)Supertouring Car Rules (the gladiators of the asphalt... until being cost reduced by FIA)
3)F1 Renault's Mass Dampers (shame on you, FIA, for banning a full analog system to help cheating Schumi)
2)Rally Group B (monsters controlled by gods... which the FIA didn't controlled in due time)
1)Tyrrell P34 (six wheelers should've been the future of formula racing)

What? Can-Am was a racing series, wasn't it?

It was, but the near-absence of anything that semi-resembled a technical rulebook meant that you had cars such as the above-mentioned Chaparral 2J, the Prophet 78, the McLaren M8E, all of which were unlike anything else in the series, which made for very different cars all over the field.

It was either the WSC or the Can-Am. As the Can-Am series declined faster (and later reborn as the Grand-Am Series) the WSC was the better option. And I put the Chaparral 2J because it was a unique design.

Wizzie's Top 10 V8 Supercar Drivers who have never won Bathurst (in no particular order)

1. Mark Winterbottom (The guy's done everything possible to try and win the damn thing but someone ALWAYS seems to go wrong for him every year)
2. Brad Jones (See Frosty)
3. Mark Larkham (Even the St Christoper's Cross wasn't good enough to help him win Australia's Great Race)
4. David Brabham (Enduro specialist deserves a win at some point. Hell, he deserves a full-time gig in the V8s full stop.)
5. Neil Crompton (Massively underrated in my opinion. Plus he makes a damn good commentator to boot)
6. Marcus Ambrose (Probably the only major trophy missing from his V8 Supercar resume)
7. Glenn Seton (21 attempts and 0 wins to show for it)
8. Jason Richards (I still fondly remember the day he drove that Tasman car to harrass the living crap out of Skaify for the last hour of the 2005 race)
9. Shane van Gisbergen (The kid had potential to be one of THE big stars in the future but I guess we may never know just how big he could have been)
10. Alan Jones (Former World Champ spent many years being competitive in the V8s but never scored a victory at Bathurst)

1: When's the grand prix on?

Dammit man, you spend so much time on the internet why don't you just ask it instead of me!?

Urm...I know it's an awkward situation here...so I'm sorry for asking so directly but, you know, that might be a complicated issue...can't you just look for a boyfriend, who is knowledgable on Formula One?

Believe me, I've tried! *sighs* guys I like who like F1 don't like me, and guys who like me don't like F1! (And are odd, like the above ex.)

By the by, I'm a girl, just so no-one gets confused.

8: What're the lights at the start of the grand prix for?
7: When's the grand prix on?
6: Why is the safety car so slow?

Ahh....that age-old rule that everyone is familiar with. The prehistoric adage the causes so much frustration, yet rings so true. Sod's law folks.

Top 10 GTA missions so far (until GTA IV: TBOGT):

10.-
9.-
8.-
7.-
6.-
5.-
4.-
3.-
2.-
1.-

Just Business (GTA: SA): the dialogues are absolute comic manna, as you would expect from a Big Smoke Mission, and it has plenty shooting, both on the ground and aboard a motorcycle.
Caught With Your Pants Down (GTA: TBOGT): you get to drive an APC around shooting cops.
End Of The Line (GTA: SA): probably the biggest mission ever to feature on a GTA game, it has everything: revenge, clearing zones with scores of densely packed foes, and more revenge.
Reuniting The Families (GTA: SA): another great shooting mission, the dialogues when you are in the car with Sweet, Big Smoke and Ryder are fabulous, so much so that you actually have trouble doing the job at hand. Epic finish to the mission as well.
The Job (GTA: Vice City): a bank raid with Tommy Vercetti, Phil Cassidy and Hillary King. What can possibly go wrong?
No.1 (GTA IV): a car race with a hilarious piece of dialogue in the end.
N.O.E (GTA: SA): any missions that involves flying a WWII plane dangerously should obviously feature here.
Murder At The Mall! (GTA 2): in the PC version, you had to kill 100 SRSs at a mall. Next to impossible without using cheats.
Taking The Peace (GTA: LCS): driving a RC car with an unsuspecting passenger in it is good fun.
In The Air Tonight (GTA: VCS): protecting Phil Collins from getting killed while you hear the song of the same name is exciting yet pleasing at the same time.

Top 10 Gran Turismo circuits that are NOT on Gran Turismo 5.

10. Midfield Raceway
9. Grindelwald
8. Infineon Raceway
7. Rome Circuit (Original Version)
6. Pikes Peak Downhill
5. Pikes Peak Hillclimb
4. Rome Night
3. Red Rock Valley
2. Seattle Circuit
1. Special Stage Route 11 (GT1 version was the better version, I loved this part of the circuit, and I wish GT3 kept it.)

My only problem with the PP level was that it wasn't the full track.
Midfield is a fast and easy track, in license tests I usually got silver on first try, with the exception of the XJ220 one...
Grindelwald's downhill section is fun. Rome in Endurance was boring. Rome Night is epic, Red Rock builds on speed, and Seattle was a very good street circuit. SSR11's original version is a tough nut to break.

If you've got any form of Playstation, go and buy Gran Turismo 1 & 2, I re-bought the latter recently for about £3. You'll hate the graphics, but it's such a good game.

I would agree with these circuits...I always really enjoyed Seattle and Midfield Raceway. Clubman Stage Route 5 was also a personal favourite as a kid.
