Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

Is this where we’re going to make snyde comments during the show?

Gabe May 31st, 2007 Link

Yes. And they will be judged on snyde-ness

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

On a scale of 1-10?

Pedro May 31st, 2007 Link

Pedro May 31st, 2007 Link

FYI - Todd is showing up in DB’s window and DB is in Todd’s window…

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

We are having technical difficulties, please stand by for a word from our sponsors.

matt May 31st, 2007 Link

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Ouch!

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

Can’t you guys replicate all the setting Gabe has.

thanks DB for that

lavardera May 31st, 2007 Link

I just had a bit of Todd sounding good.

JamesA May 31st, 2007 Link

Right now is the closest and best yet.

matt May 31st, 2007 Link

call off the live show till the bugs get worked out?

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

oh! You guys had it? Why the intermission now?

Mark May 31st, 2007 Link

try2kup May 31st, 2007 Link

lets get motoring

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

Why don’t we make this the Gabe show

Jeremy May 31st, 2007 Link

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

No retreat yet, come on lads make it work

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

I hear Gabe. I see Gabe & Todd. It looks like it could be good, if only it worked for you all :)

Jon May 31st, 2007 Link

Don’t give up on it guys, typical for the first few times though for there to be some issues. Just remember the first few White Roof radio shows.

Will be sure that you guys will get it worked out and you will have excellent new feature.

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Check again, Todd, but low volume

lavardera May 31st, 2007 Link

got todd’s checks low

Jeremy May 31st, 2007 Link

Todd we can hear you just turn it up

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Easy on the mic Gabe, when you get too close it gets loud and distorted.

try2kup May 31st, 2007 Link

i passed a kidny stone 4mm so u got off easy

lavardera May 31st, 2007 Link

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Todd’s really low.

try2kup May 31st, 2007 Link

todd volume to low

Brad May 31st, 2007 Link

The live comments would be a bit easier if we did an IRC channel rather than the web page — no need to reload.

Jeremy May 31st, 2007 Link

better

lavardera May 31st, 2007 Link

todd suddenly strong

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

SB May 31st, 2007 Link

scratchy gabe

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

Gabe was better audio on live, before he adjusted the level up.

Jeremy May 31st, 2007 Link

all good

J. Anton May 31st, 2007 Link

Todd needs to turn the “Bitcrusher” audio patch off.

try2kup May 31st, 2007 Link

i am falling assleep

lavardera May 31st, 2007 Link

Better now slightly lower gabe

getting a little DB now finally

SB May 31st, 2007 Link

Looking and sounding good.

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

Watch the language dude! There’s a dog in the room! LOL!

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

db can use whatever language he wants… as long as the hat’s on backwards, lol.

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

I just don’t like the BMW sat nav

TallyHo! May 31st, 2007 Link

Any comments on the spy photos from carconnection.com?

try2kup May 31st, 2007 Link

what do u think of the blue tu rok fos 31band eq

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

you sound good on this end gabe

J. Anton May 31st, 2007 Link

I’ve been watching this for three minutes now and not once has anyone busted a freestyle out. I want a refund.

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

Away from the mic is better!

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

supercharger! Yes!

MauiMac May 31st, 2007 Link

If you look at the R57 spy shoots, It also has the open hood scoop (hopefully functional)…

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

Now Todd is distorting!

MauiMac May 31st, 2007 Link

It must be a Mid facelift…

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

LOL DB looks like a defeated ma….LOL cheer up

Stephen May 31st, 2007 Link

You all sound fine to me…however Gabe is pretty loud…when you tell him you cannot hear him.

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

You guys sound ok on the video

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

Can we get prints of the poster?

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

we hear you all find

Jeremy May 31st, 2007 Link

you all sound fine to me

Jpolson May 31st, 2007 Link

give some love to the r50’s

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

That’s a pricy poster

Jon May 31st, 2007 Link

Everything sounds good on my side guys, all three decent video and audio.

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

Gabe, is that a MINI Motion watch?

lavardera May 31st, 2007 Link

Here is a question:

I’m hearing stories about reflashing the R56 memory taking like 6-8 hours online. What is with that? Why could it possibly take so long to upload the system?

Jpolson May 31st, 2007 Link

i dont mind the sound, but i am not a perfectionist

Stephen May 31st, 2007 Link

AWD….what do you know about it’s possible implementation in the MCS…?

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

DB fudged with it again and he’s gone….

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

$380! That’s crazy. And no aftermarket choices on the R56 yet either :(

the copi May 31st, 2007 Link

The sound thru ustream sounds good - do you have the ability to record the sound output (on another computer maybe)? I’ve recorded live web conf’s this way before and it works well.

the copi May 31st, 2007 Link

the show must go on!!

I could record the sound stream… :O

TomB May 31st, 2007 Link

Just do the show! Who cares if you can record it!!

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

Todd, can’t you “fall back” to the great portable recorder you used at MTTS?

Jpolson May 31st, 2007 Link

hey you guys going to MitM?

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

Hey Todd, can you save a poster for me. I can’t make it to Mini united but you should sell it on motoring file

Stephen May 31st, 2007 Link

ECHO….

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

Echo echo echo echo

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Echo

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

big gabe echo

dan from sydney May 31st, 2007 Link

lots of echo echo echo

J. Anton May 31st, 2007 Link

Echo through Todd now.

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

Tell him not to fudge with it if he gets back on

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

Gabe is echoing something awful!

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

(we’re hearing Gabe twice; maybe I should turn Gabes sound off and hear it through Todd?)

dan from sydney May 31st, 2007 Link

can hear db.. no visual

matt May 31st, 2007 Link

turn off gabe’s audio and listen through todd only.

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

there’s no video for db

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Sweet. It works.

Stephen May 31st, 2007 Link

Magnifico!

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

Yes Todd - it’s working fine with your sound

Ian C. May 31st, 2007 Link

Insane money? ;)

Jon May 31st, 2007 Link

Guys on the spy shots, looks like a aerokit, could be the replacment for the but ugly first attempt. What do you guys think.

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Aren’t there 4 more speakers with the HiFi? 6 vs 10? If so, where are the extra speakers?

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

Nice gabe! That’s going to be totally trick!

SB May 31st, 2007 Link

db’s back.

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

So quiet db. Where you at man?

dan from sydney May 31st, 2007 Link

visuals on db

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

I want to go over to the Dark Side, why no Diesel dammit!?!

SB May 31st, 2007 Link

Will this start/stop feature mess with aftermarked ECU upgrades?

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

Just seems like a good way to wear out a starter - plus lots of start/stop engine wear (low oil pressure, so forth) - just seems like a bad idea.

Ketan May 31st, 2007 Link

We east cost people do honk, especially at midwesterners

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

I read that too db, you can turn off the on/off start.

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

I also thought I read that the auto stop could be turned off??

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Straight from the Motoringfile post… “What is more the Auto Start-Stop Function can be deactivated at any time by the driver at the press of a button.”

SB May 31st, 2007 Link

Can we plug a mouse into the USB and drive by mouse? ;)

dan from sydney May 31st, 2007 Link

is it true there will be timber panel exterior?

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

It it Brown-brown or like the Terra… ?whatever? leather in the 3 series??

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

I would TOTALLY drive a brown Clubman!!!

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

With the right brown color, the Clubman could be the first “Skid Mark” to LEAVE skid marks :-p

SB May 31st, 2007 Link

I want a diesel and take it to the dragon. :)

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

The MINI D engine, that’s NA and not a TDI, right?

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Oh, and WHY is Diesel so expensive in the States?? It’s the cheapest option in Germany.

Jpolson May 31st, 2007 Link

tell us how easy it would be to maintain a diesel?

Coruscation May 31st, 2007 Link

Well executed web cast.

I keep it on and on, it’s never quitting time and
Strictly hand held is the style I go
Never rock the mic with the panty hose
I strap on my ear goggles and I’m ready to go
…

Zane May 31st, 2007 Link

There is a lot of stutter/buffering in Gabe’s stream. The other streams seem pretty good.

Gabe May 31st, 2007 Link

Only use Todd’s audio.

Stephen May 31st, 2007 Link

What is the difference with the standard, sport, and JCW suspension. The only thing I can tell is the sway bars…are the springs/struts different?

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

This was still really cool guys. Stick with it.

dan from sydney May 31st, 2007 Link

good night guys! I’m off to lunch :)

Stephen May 31st, 2007 Link

Thanks, the mini site does not point that out…it simply mentions the sway bars..

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Thanks guys, g’night!

Zane May 31st, 2007 Link

Is there going to be another full-blown “souped-up” JCW suspension or is this the ultimate one for this generation?

Nathaniel Salzman May 31st, 2007 Link

Cheers guys!!!

Jon May 31st, 2007 Link

Guys don’t hassle it, keep it up and you will polish it as well as what you have been doing with the audio shows.

Still this is going to be a extreamly cool future feature.

dan from sydney May 31st, 2007 Link

haha can still hear you guys

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Hey Gabe, you’re still broadcasting audio. Just FYI.

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Video too.

OttoMannS May 31st, 2007 Link

Hey Gabe you are very funny, you seem to be enjoying yourself to the max.

Great show. I think your other 2 pals got MIA in cyberspace.

Zane May 31st, 2007 Link

Gabe, you look super-tired!

OttoMannS May 31st, 2007 Link

Gabe u drunk?

dan from sydney May 31st, 2007 Link

he’s high on eye drops

Gabe May 31st, 2007 Link

Not that I’m aware of.

he’s high on eye drops

Damn straight!

Gabe, you look super-tired!

Yes - very. This was officially the strangest WRR show ever. Typically they’re much different.

Drill May 31st, 2007 Link

Still, technical difficulties aside, the Live show is a GREAT idea and once things got semi-worked out, it was a good show.
