Cool pics! The FRS is still a great looking machine.

The R33 looks really dated and, dare i say it, a bit pony with that current stance. The 350z is ok, but i think they look nicer very simply as they have a really nice shape about them stock.

Nice job!

Thanks Nick. Footage of the fun is up now. whI9LH5gPFY

Not a fan myself. Also really dont see the point with the Eos being a Gold based convertible!

Just spent ages reading this page! Nice write ups and glad to hear you are getting silverware already. I love the sound of the comradery involved in the series, must make up in part in being in tents! I am lucky i get to stay in a Premier Inn; not sure i could handle the cold and wet nights...

Good ol' Instagram! Being in a quiet road car, it was a great experience being on track as the Z4 sped past me with the unsilenced V8 at full roar, disappearing into the distance. It felt like i was watching a Gran Turismo trailer at the IMAX in 3D with speakers around my ears; just phenomenal.

Ultimately the Turbo isn't a track car Rob, doesn't need to be with the GT2 and GT3 around TBF. The intention was my dad was going to use the car and then part exchange it for a Gen 2 Turbo S, but that just hasn't happened as he's been busy. However, because we both are named as users, it is...

I didn't push hard because i was concious i had to drive it back! It was much better with air out of the tyres, and (despite what the manual says), you can turn the ESP off completely and it was more playful. Overall though, it is a bit like the Golf in that it is very competent but not that...

FLOL! I would change the pads and fluid first as imagine that is all you need. A fairly tame track pad will hopefully mean your discs won't get eaten. It is amazing how much heat a road car generates though with all the weight it has to slow down; in the end i had to take my tyre pressures...

My next race is at Zolder and, as i've never been before there, i booked myself on an 'International Trackday' there yesterday to a get a feel for it. What i didn't know was this was simply a test day, for a genuine track day you have to go through the usual UK and foreign track day companies...

In fairness, i wasn't expecting much but there are some nice cars there.

Beautiful cars. Less is definitely more!

FLOL!

Thanks guys. There is some video footage coming soon!

You and me both! Cheers.

Quality!

It is a Go Pro taking shots every 15 secs IIRC.

They are insane but surprisingly bit budget at a decent level!

Thanks guys, and yes, great shots by Nick again!

If you were in costume too, i might just love you a little bit.

Last week we were back at my home circuit in the Lotus Cup UK series, but this time on the more exciting GP circuit. Following the last race's woes, the team had to quickly get together the parts required to build another Duratec engine. It now has more off the shelf parts from Cosworth to help...

Quad exhausts...brembo stickers...mud flaps? Someone should devise a BTEC qualification for the basics on modifying a car. Then they could roll you out as a little case study on how not to do it. When its over, you get a little dunce's hat and sit in the corner.

Looks mental! What made it blow in the first place? Shame you don't have the genuine wheels...the car deserves it.

This.

Well that was 4 minutes of my life i won't get back again. Please refrain from posting s**t again Ashley.

Basically the difference is response time and amount of power that can be apportioned. I believe yours is the first generation, whereas mine is the 4th, so obviously things have become more efficient. The next generation (Haldex 5) is coming with the latest range of VAGs with the new modular...

Surely just a case of moving it over to manual mode with the gearstick and moving up to second to pull away... My mum's Tiguan (which has Haldex) was very able and a lot of fun in the snow, and that was with summer tyres. I was driving round people like a baus, but it couldn't handle properly...

In the US rollcages are MUCH beefier.

Really liked the black 964 with chrome wheels :o
