    Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I missed out on going to Brands on the 14th in the end and possibly won’t be out until the April 17th now but I’ve seen you’re going on the 3rd…. I’m very tempted………….Would give you something to try and follow...

    Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Yes, I realised that as soon as I posted (I saw his seat rails being fitted above the spare wheel well!!). I’m only 5.8!!

    Spring on upside-down – is this a problem?

    Thanks Tony. Matt said it shouldn’t make any difference and Curtis at AST said the same, its just bugging me why Eibach would bother printing UP and the arrow if it wasn’t supposed to be fitted a particular way around.I’m not comfortable changing it myself. It was Track-Group that fitted it...

    PH2 and track questions

    Depending on how many miles you’re planning on doing, you could just leave the 888’s on all the time and save money on not having to buy a 2nd set of wheels/tyres for the track. I started off with a 2nd set and then just left the 888’s on all the time. A friend had an R26R with the 888’s on as...

    172 Wheels paint job?

    I agree, I wonder why some bother wasting their time posting unhelpful or sarcastic comments. There ought to be some stronger policing on here. I personally think the white would look great with the blue but like some have said would be a pain to keep clean. Have you thought of anthracite...

    Spring on upside-down – is this a problem?

    Thanks Sam, I totally agree and will swap it over at some point just to be sure. Its not that just the writing is upside down, it’s that it actually says “UP” and has an arrow – all of which are pointing down at the moment. The spring is compressed from both below and above and it’s not...

    Spring on upside-down – is this a problem?

    I have the AST Sportline 2 coil-over set and just noticed at the weekend that the driver’s front spring is the wrong way up. May be this is’nt a problem, but it has an “up” arrow on it but unfortunately its pointing down. The other three are all pointing up.Now is this a problem? - I can’t...

    Couple of 172's on Track at Brands yesterday.

    Ouch!! The track conditions should’ve been perfect, other than the oil!!. The last two times I’ve been to Brands it’s been pouring it down. Still a great track in the wet but just a bit hairy over Paddock Hill!!

    Couple of 172's on Track at Brands yesterday.

    Bugger, I was meant to be there but left it too late before booking and it was sold out; I’m kicking myself as it was a lovely day yesterday and will now have to wait until mid-April due to work.

    GPU Upgrade

    Job done then, get the 580 and for £250 it’s at a great price.

    GPU Upgrade

    I’ve just double checked, but I don’t think you’ll get a 580 for £200, the 570’s are around £250 and the 580’s are around £350+. I’m running two 570's and they perform fantastically. Would recommend getting a single 570 if you can afford it and you’d have the option to get another when funds...

    Bullet colour recommendations on Titanium 182?

    Surprisingly not, just poke it down with a biro lid or similar, mine still ok after 6 months.

    wrapping a car?

    Just putting my 2p in, I had my roof wrapped at Yiannimise and the actual guys who did the wrap were top-notch, it’s a long story but the guys who ran the place were actually threatening, I was on the verge of calling the police. I would strongly recommend others not to go there just because of...

    Spherical bearings

    Am at Brand on the 14th.I think I saw yours last night up on the ramp (due to regs its standard bar the engine – is that right?), there were, including mine, three silver PH1’s….. and a matt grey one skulking in the corner.

    Spherical bearings

    Finally collected the car last night, all the powder-coated bits looks great, the drive home down the A14 and M11 wasn’t the best representation but initial thoughts are the car feels more ‘direct’. There’s no delay in turning the steering wheel and the car changing direction, the ride is’nt...
