I enjoy the fun side of Sim Racing & the Gran Turismo community aspect in particular. 1 x World Record & 13 x Global Top 10 TT. YouTube for Streams & Videos
I am a Gran Turismo World Record holder!😭
I can’t believe I’m writing those words, I actually did it!
On the same week that I turned 42 years old
On the same week that I publicly and without shame asked for your help because I was struggling (and so many of you graciously reached out for advice)
On this same week I ended up the fastest in the world and not even in Gr4 but Gr1
A lap 4.5 years in the making and yes I grinded hard for that lap, I did over 1000 miles yesterday, my hands and arms were sore but at 1.50 am I put together the lap I knew I could do. I was never going to quit. If I failed then I failed knowing I tried my best and could be happy with that but I actually did it and I’m so unbelievably happy
Thank you for all who have supported and encouraged me and given help and advice to help me improve as a driver. I feel this last 6 months iv been working on a strategy to improve on my pace and maybe this is now proof that my approach is working
I will try not to mention this World Record too often, but I can’t make any promises 🥹
I’m so happy 🙏😭🏁
FIA TGR MENA ESPORTS iRACING AND GT7 CHAMPION 2026!🇯🇴🇱🇾

@Rataka_7@BaldeWaves It’s a great fight - rumour has it Makhachev has popped for the gear which is why they are doing this but keeping his failed test under the radar. He popped once before a few years back so wouldn’t be unbelievable
A statement on yesterday…..
Everything I said in that interview was true. However, rest assured I’m doing my best to turn things round.
I have been in a mental health clinic for the last 10 weeks, finally discharging so I could attempt to play in Belfast
I owed that to my family, in particular my daughter to see me play for what could be the last time….. I also owed it to the fans who have supported me throughout my 21 years on tour
I also owed that to World Snooker who have been amazing from day on in all this, in particular Simon Brownell and Neil Tomkins who have remained in touch regularly, even Simon paying me a visit in the clinic itself
I’m not ok, but I’m ok in that itself. I’ve been much worse in the last few months than you saw yesterday. I literally didn’t see a future in anything…..
My daughter kept me going, the therapists, staff and all the other patients were amazing and helped me through some really dark days
I see the light now that I couldn’t see before but I do now. I also know it won’t happen overnight. I’m a work in progress!!! My fight and determination on the table has always been there for ones to see. I need to show those same fighting qualities off it now for a while
Please don’t detract anything from Jordan yesterday, he’s been aware of my struggles and that can’t have been easy to play in but he handled it with grace and skill as I knew he would. Im proud to call him a friend
I hope the rest of the event is a success and I will continue my treatments going forward and then see what’s ahead
Thank you to every single message I have received on here, instagram, Facebook, text messages and WhatsApp’s, I’ve seen them all but a bit overwhelmed to reply right now. Just know that they have helped me a lot but I’m not going anywhere just yet!!!! I have so much to live for and this is only the beginning of my new journey
Also, I was not made to do any interviews, I was simply given a choice and felt I owed it to everyone to speak. The media team at WST have been incredible through all this too
Thank you all x
They didn’t remove Ngannou, he refused approx $7 million a fight contract and fought out his contract on around $600k a fight turning down millions so he could go box and made around $30 - $40 million in 2 fights against fury and Joshua. He was a free agent who didn’t resign, the UFC did propaganda to make it seem they didn’t want him cause nothing worse than a champ leaving with the belt. Strickland in a worse position he’s about 2-3 fights into an 8 fight deal that he made when not champion so he’s looking at flat $400k show and $400 win bonus and is locked into that for another 5-6 fights taking him to mid 30’s in his prime OR they will give him a slight bump but make him sign a fresh 8-10 fight deal for that additional purse value. That’s how they lock them in and rarely ever can they escape unless prepared to fight well under their market value for several fights
I went to see it in IMAX Friday the 1pm showing, there was maybe 10-12 people in the IMAX for what was essentially the public premiere, the first showing of general release day. I actually like that but it was odd just how empty it was given the arena and opening day. Oddly where movies like The Shawshank Redemption were relative flops in the cinema on release (yes it really was a flop) it had a secondary audience on the VHS market, it feels like streaming services are now offering that secondary audience and income and I feel this will gain traction once that happens, people won’t necessarily leave their homes to watch a movie from a trailer they know nothing about (intentional) but might stick it on in their home when nothing else on and find they love it / hate it, but it will get more eyeballs for sure
@meta7gear The trailers and promotion for the movie are sparse cause they can’t really tell you what the movie is as it would be a spoiler, it’s not as it seems
If you have seen a wave of negative press about this movie talking about its financial performance and how bad it is and why you shouldn’t see it - stop and ask yourself, does this feel a bit contrived like your opinion is being steered a bit too hard, like maybe just maybe it’s not in peoples interests for you to watch this movie - I did watch it. It’s different, it’s unique, it has messages and meaning and is satirical on many levels without giving too much away - but to reiterate it you think you’re being discouraged a little too hard from seeing this movie then go see it and come to your own conclusion, I guarantee it will not be neutrality and chewing gum for the eyes but will make you sit up and watch and think and then think again. FYI I still haven’t decided if I actually enjoyed the movie or not, I can’t rate it out of 10, I saw it on Friday and I’m still debating what I saw beyond some excellent performances, that in of itself is a win that cinema has not given us in many years
‘DIGGER’ has opened with $8M domestically on a projected budget of $160M-$180M.
Biggest Hollywood box office bomb of 2026 & one of the biggest bombs of all time.
Anyone who did this kind of move during the online season would have their points for that round deleted, but when it's one of the two drivers that seem to have inmunity in these scenarios they are promoting it on social media.
Is it too much to ask for non biased treatment?
