    Ktec re-trimmed steering wheel

    Yeah you can swap the cruise buttons and wiring over pretty easily. It's a bit of a faff but it's not hard to do if you take your time.

    What are you doing to your track car over Winter?

    Completely agree, I know I can probably tackle most things myself given the time, space and tools. Problem is I tend not to have any of those three :D

    iPhone 6S

    If you go into the battery option in settings it will tell you what's been using the battery for the last 24 hours or 7 days. Might be you have an app on there which is eating the battery. In other news another five phones arrived at work today. All 64Gb ones, for the slightly-less-senior...

    What are you doing to your track car over Winter?

    All of a sudden I don't feel so bad about the amount I spent on my car this year :D

    What are you doing to your track car over Winter?

    New pair of front tyres, probably new front discs as mine are now ever-so-slightly warped, try to adjust the exhaust so it doesn't scrape on speed humps, sort out the front bumper hangers so they don't rub in hard cornering. So basically, nothing exciting :( My mechanic does keep pinging me...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Got it out of the garage and gave it a quick wash. Remembered exactly why I should always wash the car shortly after a track day and not leave it mouldering in the garage for two months. Bloody squished bugs!! Now off for a drive :)

    iPhone 6S

    Five shiny new 6S arrived here today. All of them were the 128Gb versions that the senior managers have decided they must have. Those of us who get the 16Gb versions can only watch and wait for O2 to pull their fingers out of their collective arses...... s**t.

    iPhone 6S

    We've got about 30 coming to the company, but the provider will only ship them in batches of five to "manage demand", so no idea when I'll actually get mine. First world problems eh? ;)

    Bye Bye Skoda, Hello GT86.

    Last TD I was at there was a lightly modded 86 there and it looked a hell of a lot of fun. Put some grippier rubber on it and it can carry some very impressive cornering speeds, although obviously you won't have the tail out nearly as much :) Had a chat with the owner and they were absolutely...

    Cloud storage - Who to use? 1TB+

    None of the cloud providers really offer protection from data loss, you need to move up to more expensive business grade services for that. They're not backed up so any data that is deleted or lost from the cloud service is gone. A big USB disk kept at work/relatives/friends and brought home...

    Cloud storage - Who to use? 1TB+

    Yep Office 365 is the way to go, it's actually unlimited cloud storage space now but you have to apply for it. Uploads are (deliberately) slow however so yes it will take a long time to transfer a TB.

    Smashed Trophy @ Castle Combe (no 299)

    Ignore me, that's actually the silver one again, for some reason the side looks black in the photo to my aged eyes. Or I should blamed the iPad screen or something. b****cks........ :D Still, at least it was drivable!

    Saw it shared on Combe's Facebook feed - here it is:

    Smashed Trophy @ Castle Combe (no 299)

    Theres a pic from the photographers who covered the day of a black 1*2 with a smashed up front end being driven back into the pits, was still under it's own power but that had been boosted/charged too. So that makes three!

    Alignment set up - Yes i've used search!

    This is how they looked before the most recent track day. They're now definitely not legal but should have another day in them I think. Probably a couple of mm extra wear on the inside of the tyre compared to the outside.

    OnePlus 2 - Announced

    Anyone who wants one I've got one here now, the mate who was going to buy it off me changed his mind. Not looking to make a profit, just want to cover my costs so £320 posted RM special delivery. It's the 64gb model still sealed in the factory plastic. Drop me a PM if you want it.

    Alignment set up - Yes i've used search!

    -2.2, but to be fair I'm also running 888s and it's track wear so really it's not that excessive.

    Alignment set up - Yes i've used search!

    Yeah changing the toe makes a surprisingly big difference. I'm still eating the insides of the tyres but that's camber for you :)

    eBay track car is it yours

    I really want that black 200 - but I'm about... oooh.... eight and a half grand short of the asking price :)

    Smashed Trophy @ Castle Combe (no 299)

    WTAF went on there, your idea does seem to make sense McG. Not sure if whoever was driving the silver clio had any track experience, some strange lines, braking in the middle of one of the chicanes, all a bit odd.

    Smashed Trophy @ Castle Combe (no 299)

    Briefing we had last time out was brilliant. He asked if there were any first timers and when a couple of people said yes he just paused for a few seconds, grinned and said "And you chose Combe? Brave." Got the point across at least. Love that track but it's not somewhere to take liberties...

    ramair induction kit

    As said above its not the induction kit unless the way it's been fitted has caused an unmetered air leak which is making the car run lean, but I'm not sure how you'd manage that just by fitting a different air filter. Has anything else been done to the car recently? First thing to do is get...

    Smashed Trophy @ Castle Combe (no 299)

    Ouch. Hope the driver was ok. :( Impressive to do that at Tower, although to be fair Combe demands respect pretty much everywhere.

    195 50 15 R888R £75 on tyre leader

    GG is "soft" in Toyo terms but seems like everyone else calls it medium. They call SG super-soft or something so basically GG is the harder one and SG is the softer one. I need a new pair of 888's for the front of the car for next year so I'll be keeping an eye out.

    Apple event - 9th September

    I can see why they keep the 16gb going, people like my wife don't need even 16gb because she doesn't do apps and I don't really need it because all my pics and videos go straight to cloud storage so no need to have them stored on the phone. Also, profit ;) The force touch stuff will either be...

    OnePlus 2 - Announced

    I got an invite yesterday, although not a shareable one, so ordered the OPT as I think a mate of mine wants one and it was only valid for 24 hours. It's weird, I bought the OPO but since then I've done nothing in the "community" at all, in fact I sold it after six months or so. Christ alone...
