• September 17, 2008 vDream Gets an Oil Change

    02:36pm by Lijen (Site)

    Sorry about the cheesy analogies, sometimes I can’t help myself. A few updates for all you friends out there in vDream land.

    1. Performance upgrades: We made some internal changes that should make the pages load faster and the overall experience smoother. Let us know if you guys can feel the difference.
    2. Wrong car information bug: There has been a bug, I’m sure many of you have experienced this, where you think you are racing one car, but in reality the user owns another car. This is fixed, you should always be seeing the most up to date car in the track section now.


    Thats it for now. I’ll have more updates for you at the end of the week, with something new coming soon…

    The exhaust on the Camaro says it is made by Edelbrock, It is Not made by them. Flowmaster makes their own parts. Part name for flowmaster is the Super 40 Series by Flowmaster.

    Lijen, I took off the vdream medallion, the olympic pride flag off of my old car so that I could put it into the new one. When I go to the parts shed, it’s not there but when I go to sell parts, they all show up as for sell. Is this a glitch or did I do something wrong??

    Excellent work on the camaro….now let’s get some more parts for her before anything else so that the playing field is nice and level! 465/465 should not be the limit for this beast. how about some forced induction, more wheels, and those driveline parts you promised! let me know if you want any help with it.

    Today, I bought the Ford Saleen S7!!! I am SO excited and I’ve purchased everything I could for it except for the $60,000 Twin-Turbo Upgrade. I LOVE IT! :)

    But, to answer your question Peter, I also know what you mean about the vDream Medallion v.1 and the issue about it not showing up in the “Garage,” but it DOES show up in the “Sell Parts” area… This problem will be fixed; I’m sure of it! Lijen and/or Cheechoo will look into it. If you still have it in your “Sell Parts” area, then you still have it.. I also noticed that when I was buying & selling parts for and from my Saleen today. Just like you did, I noticed that it did not appear in my “Garage” list of parts. So obviously, I wasn’t able to install it on my Saleen S7. But no worries! As I said, Lijen and/or Cheechoo WILL get to it when they do! They have been do a MASSIVE amount of work lately, with the release of new parts and cars and then these updates & fixes that this topic is about. I wouldn’t worry though bro… If it’s in the “sell Parts” area, as it is in mine, we still have the rare $10,000 vDream Medallion and the database that collects and stores this data doesn’t lie! It shows that we have it, so I’m sure the problem will be fixed soon. If I were you, I would submit it as a “Bug Report” as soon as ya can, that way they will know and see (I’m sure they’ll also read and notice it within this post as well though, lol)! :-D Remember to keep submitting those parts submissions, any bug reports, and keep posting here in the “Blog” sections and topics for more info and to express your opinions and ideas!!! Thanks…

    Okay, so now it’s time for me to brag! w0000000000000t!!!!!!!! I GOT THE Saleen S7 Twin Turbo and it’s flippin’ AWESOME! I uploaded a pic so that you guys and gals can see what the “Silver-colored” Saleen S7 TT looks like with the carbon fiber spoiler, a set of 20”/19” wheels (front and rear sizes are different, as they are for many other cars), and some accessories like window tint, etc.! I uploaded it to TinyPic.Com and so here’s the pic:

    The flags are now compatible with camaros (forgot about them, sorry!), but the medallion and other mirror danglers is going to need a little more work. Sorry guys =), just hold on to them for now while we fix the problem.

    Thank you for the thanks & praise you all have given me… But I feel that the REAL shouts, grats and thanks go to Lijen and Cheechoo, the artist(s) and the rest of the official vDream Team… including the Beta Testers who have put in SO much fine work!!!

    GO VDREAM!

    As far as I know the Saleen can run at 9.06 . but I bet it car run faster.
    Jed tell us how fast it is going.
    The Viper full updated got me 8.86 run once (and 8.88 as well).

    Saleen is quite a bit faster I believe, especially if you take out the passenger’s seat and slap the turbo on. But I don’t own one. I own an SRT4. JED give us some times!
