...and here's session 4. I turned the DSC fully off in this one...but timed that really badly! Session 5 will follow this weekend (y):D

Oh it was, a huge amount. Not as precise as the RS but just as willing to move about and it hauls ass down the straights! 3rd and 4th are quite long but 5th is really short...I think that's part of the reason it reaches a much higher speed down the straights than the RS...it can really get...

That's very very very nice. Indeed. What's the forward adjustment knob on the seat base for? Seat base angle?

Things got more lively in this one, the 140 started to come alive a bit and, apart from one minor moment, I found a happy medium with the brakes.

Here's session 2. After this one it was clear the brakes have one full lap in them at best. :ROFLMAO:

GoPro are currently discounting all of the new 7 range. You can get a 7 white new for £159 which is pretty much the 'new' hero session spec wise.

As in the little cube one? I use mine all the time. Apart from the phone app, which you need to set it up, being a little clunky I can't really fault it.

I'm there that day but @Sir_Dave is there earlier in the month.

I'll be there with my full array of cameras and mics Dave. If there are differences, I'll capture them!

(y)(y)(y) Which is exactly why, LSD aside, I'll be doing absolutely f*** all else to this car. As a road car it's just about perfect. Comfy or firm enough for whatever mood I'm in. It goes, stops, and turns more than well enough and sounds quiet/louder depending on my mood too. Fitting the...

Noted @Jeff simply , audio levels were a bit trial and error...and as said this was a rushed edit/production. Through my B&W headphones it sounded spot on ;) ARBs aren't something I've seen mentioned a great deal, if at all? This makes sense...did you change your springs?

Yep. At eight tenths they're bang on, at the full ten tenths, you need your fingers crossed!

...and I've not been able to rest wanting to see how everything I filmed turned out so, ignoring all the sh*t I should be doing, I spent last night and all of today knocking this one out...

I've genuinely no idea! I expect it'll be comfortably quicker than the ST, I was easily hitting 135 where the ST would reach 120 and I don't think the 140 gives more than that back through the turns. Compared to the RS though, I'll be amazed if it's quicker. It was a lot more lively though LOL

Goodwood was done on Thursday and the M140i was, just as with the Focus RS, eye opening! Fun, lots of it, but it requires a lot of management to get it round even remotely tidily. 10 weeks to go before I'm back there...in the meantime I have an LSD I need to fit (y) Footage from the half day I...

You have to even ask that :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Two business owning chaps from Chippenham way took it off my hands. They'd been running a 911 as a track car between them and wanted to lower the costs so decided to downsize to the mighty 172 Cup. It was to be a dedicated track car so the MOT issues with airbags and seatbelt mounts and so on...

??? Not really, the first two are old, woefully lacking in setup options compared to the others, have no WiFi, and are physically bust in some way or another. They're usable, just. I just can't bring myself to bin them. Because accountant.

I have and regularly use 5 GoPros; HD Hero 2 Hero Black 4 Session 4 Session 5 Not one of them has a screen on the back. The B4, S4, and S5 I can and do connect to my phone to set up and position for the perfect angle...but you really don't need to. The angle captured is so wide, you will...

Don't. What you have there is how it should be...body coloured toward the end and then, as in your picture, the small black sticker. Here's how mine came when it was brand spanking new...

Those wheels take 10 years off that car IMO.

I would have done if I'd had the wheels off...plus the fact that the car's not been washed since November makes me really not want to touch it until it's had a proper clean. Yeah, they're a genuine surprise. I thought I had good grip and ride on the mis-mash of what I had on there but on the...

A quick update on this one now that I'm >£1k lighter :ROFLMAO:

This is exactly why my external one is 4TB, so I can retain everything I capture. So many times before I decided this I'd want to go back to old footage, find a particular shot from a particular day or event, or just rework and remake a video. That I don't have the original raw footage from my...

For my video editing I run a 4TB external HDD, but a portable one that powers itself from my laptop. I just bought one from PC World with a 2yr guarantee for about £100 or so, I can't even remember which brand it is!!! Editing? As above, MovieMaker I think will do all you need...I use...

Are there any BMW/Mini transactions on here that @Sir_Dave isn't involved in to some degree or another? :ROFLMAO: Good buy @Rob (y)

The leather is spot on but that steering wheel badge makes me cry.

LOL, yep, foggy indeed.

So according to the RSVPs in the header I'm the only one going tonight?

I've just noticed the map at the top of this thread is way off where we meet...which is usually at the "Portsdown Hill Viewpoint"...
