In other sea level news I realised I'm rapidly approaching the point at which I sacked my RS off for being fragile. Time has goine by so quickly in this thing 😁
The wind deflectors kill me. If they have a genuine purpose, as people who fit them claim, why do they only appear on cars like this.
Awful hideous bits of pointless tat.
Otherwise...
Actually, no, that still looks sh*t.
This is as far as I got...admittedly not very far!
I did also have an Oulton Park day booked once, but having driven the entire way there the evening before, in terrible snowy and icy conditions, I got to the circuit the next morning and it was closed and the day had been cancelled. They...

I get that it's all about the nimbleness though. The chap that won it overall last time was in a fettled Mini JCW GP or...
Reg swears by them on his 330ci and he's as tail happy in that thing as you can get.
As I mentioned, it must be to do with all the torque somehow, although how that would work I've no idea. I have been using the back end, but how much can you really wear them over the winter...they spend most...
