• March 03, 2009 Collector's Car: VW Beetle! And Weekly Awards

    12:52pm by Cheechoo (Site)

    Greetings fellow vDreamers! We’ve just released vDream’s first collector’s car, the 1971 VW Beetle! One of the most iconic cars in existence, the VW Beetle can be recognized worldwide. It’s straight from 1971 so it still has the stock motor in it. Don’t hope to race this bad boy and expect to win – it’s a collector’s item.

    This week’s awards go to:

    Most Active User: Michael Roux, with 455 activity points. Keep up the good work Michael!

    Most Losses: Anthony Manton, with 209 losses. Not bad, Anthony. Slick looking Ram you’ve got there too.

    Car of the Week: Adrian Yracheta’s St. Patty’s Day Supra. I thought this car was awesome the moment I saw it. Don’t pinch it, it’s green! The Supra has the Shamrock Wheels on it, and it blends in perfectly with the rest of the car. Great job, Adrian! BTW, Adrian, send Lijen or Cheechoo a facebook message or send a support ticket with your myspace link so we can reward you. I couldn’t find your name in the database.

  • March 03, 2009

    Looks awesome guys! Just don’t make the mistake of replacing it with your S7 for drag races! haha *Waits for someone to post a shamrock green beetle…

    I’m extremely happy to see a VeeDub! It just sucks that is called a ‘71, cause the Bug you guys have is NOT a ‘71 Bug! Hahaha Those headlights are ‘66 and older headlights, not to mention that there aren’t any turn signals….which is reminiscent of the ‘55 and older Bugs ( they’ve got semiphores which pop out between the doors and rear side window). Other then those small technicalities, I LOVE it!!!!

    It would be killer sweet if you guys can offer a rag top option! :drool: lol :D

    - 08:23pm

    by LXS

  • March 03, 2009

    Oh yeah, one more thing missing, the Bug doesn’t have the chrome rear quarter window vents. IMHO, I think it would be a lot better to call this bug a ‘62-’66 style, cause that’s what it looks like…with shaved turn signals :)

    I’m not complaining, just making some suggestions :)

    - 08:29pm

  • March 03, 2009

    When I get home and have some time, I’m gonna buy this Bug and depending on what mode it does/doesn’t have, I’m gonna send parts request in, heads, cam, carbs, turbos, etc :)

    Has anyone put the vented front fenders on their Elise? It says they release heat from the front brakes, I’m curious if they will help reduce track times even though they seem to add a few pounds. Can anyone verify that they do in fact add weight because theres been a few times where a part will take off weight once installed despite the description saying they add weight.

    T-Hawk, you’re right, but you can actually race the Camaro right now, it has a decent amount of horsepower. The Beetle, on the other hand, has 40. =)

    quick question – are people using the supercharger to get the elise up to 362hp, i’ve got all the performance parts but went the turbo route and only have 361 – I know big difference but i don’t have anything to spend money on in a while so i’d like to have the fastest elise, sti and vette possible

  • March 04, 2009

    Ok, something is screwy with my VDI, I just had 4 challenges accepted, all of which were wins, all of which gained me absolutely nothing, then I had 2 people challenge me and I won one race and lost the other, and immediately after accepting each race my VDI went up for those two corresponding race, but nothing from the other wins, and I have noticed that a few times in the past few days as well…whats up with that….and also, still no reply on why Internet Explorer cant find specified page popping up when I try to install the shamrock wheels on my Ram…...

    - 05:13am

    by Stephen Adamek

  • March 04, 2009

    There are issues with wheels sometimes with IE, it’s a bug that we haven’t been able to figure out. I installed the shamrock wheels on your RAM. VDI sometimes takes a few minutes to update. You don’t get extra VDI from wins anymore, so you’d just get the VDI from accepting challenges.

    - 05:23am

    by Cheechoo

    Ah I c, well thank you very much for answering my questions, and thank you for installing the wheels on my Ram, I really appreciate it!

For the record, there are 300hp N/A Beetles out there that run low 10s in the quarter. And one guy makes 650+ out of 2.8L and runs high 7s and low 8s. I don’t care to race my bug, but can we please get some visual mods? I sent you a few wheels I want. Oh and here’s my German baby (All but one of my six cars are German, lol.):

    Just a question for the mods. Why am i only allowed to send 15 challenges instead of the 20?

    - 03:08pm

    by Joe

  • March 05, 2009

    Joe- We have changed the challenge process so that you get your initial 15 challenges immediately, and when you send them all out, you get an additional 5 challenges every 4 hours. When you use your next set of challenges, it will be another four hours before you get another 5 challenges. They are not cumulative.

    This is an attempt to give people who are more active a bit of a “bonus”

    - 04:58pm

    by Daniel- VDPD

  • March 05, 2009

    Daniel- Thanks for explaining i got messed up thought it was the initial 20 then 5 after that. This works just as good then lol

    - 05:38pm

    when every 4 hours comes around it still says 0 challenges but i still get to send out challenges…

  • March 07, 2009

    Not yet, you just gotta be patient. The parts will come, but keep in mind that everyone who makes vDream into the game will love and enjoy, are busy with a lot of other aspects of the game…such as making sure it’s running properly, etc. From what I know, there are a lot of parts that have been submitted, so believe me, there are parts in the waiting bin, we just gotta wait until they get approved and “animated.” :)

    - 12:14am

    by SERIOUSLY MAKE NEW CARS GOD DAMN ANAL BEADS

  • March 09, 2009

    Only reason Bug isn’t fast is due to not having the ability to due motor swaps. If it was allowed, there would EASILY be 7-10 second 1/4 mile Bugs on this game! But aside from that, the reason that there aren’t any Shelby Cobras, ZR1 Vettes, etc. is because the majority of vDream didn’t vote for those cars. Instead, they voted for another Nissan, which I have to really bite my lip AND tongue HARD to not say anything bad negative! hahaha But anyway, better cars will come, we all just have to be really patient :)
