    FOTA Fan Forum

    Well, in an amazing turn of luck I just got a mail from FOTA saying I'm going to McLaren for the F1 Fan Forum. All sorts of team representatives doing a Q&A, including Whitmarsh, Brawen, Hamilton and KOB! Anyone else? Wouldn't mind having another Renault to park with at Mercedes Benz World...

    turn left, turn right WHOA THERE!!!!!!!

    Strange one. It might be purely in my head, or just because the steering wheel is on the wonk after getting the alignment sorted but... When I turn left, everything is fine. When I turn right by a similar amount, the car feels as if I've just whacked on an armful of lock, it's almost a...

    Filter / Cross-over / Something like that

    Evening. If I wanted to fit 5" mid-bass speakers in the rear pods, what would I use to stop treble getting through? An in-line filter or similar I'm guessing, but I'm too dim to know what I'd be looking for. Advice welcome, abuse expected.

    Megane 16" wheels on 172's?

    Just wondered. Anyone had a set of these on a 172? Wondering if they'd look decent and worth swapping to from standard 172 items. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/4X-RENAULT-MEGANE-CLIO-16-WHEELS-/290562865360?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item43a6e578d0 Oh, and would they...

    F1 not for sale - Now Murdoch approaches FIAT for help

    After watching Cannonball Run 2 and a bit of googlage afterwards, I must now find myself a Sterling Nova. Check them out, they are, quite simply, brilliant. Well, for a 70's designed kit-car, based on a VW Beetle. Someone's been building themrecently, since there's some examples with RX-8...

    Predator-style pointer?

    I've been scouring google and ebay for almost a good 5 minutes now and cannot find what I'm looking for, so I ask whether you can help. I am looking for a laser-pointer that fires the Predators 3-dot pattern. Any ideas. (beyond search engines, google, ebay or CS) Thanks in advance

    Used tyres? Seriously?

    I keep seeing people talking of buying up used tyres as if it's the new craze. Now, after partng company with the thick end of 200 sheets for a pair of front Conti's and an alignment I can easily understand that some may want to save a few quid. But I was always told that getting used tyres...

    Full Lock Knock

    Afternoon people On Full lock I get a knock from the drivers' side front. This is at parking speeds (although if I do find myself on full lock at speed I think a knocking sound will be the least of my concerns) Can't see anything untowards, the CV boot is still there so I'm guessing the...

    High-Revving, multi-cylinder appreciation thread

    People I'm reading more and more that we'll all soon be driving 1-litre, wind-assisted shopping trolleys with a probable red-line of about 4k. As someone once said "there's no replacement for displacement". Maybe that's not quite strictly true, providing you've got enough cylinders and revs...

    Sat Nav mounting bracket

    Morning all. Can anyone please suggest a decent dash-mount bracket for Ph.2 172's? The one I have been using never really fitted correctly and has now decided to completely give up and has forced me to use sticky pads, which isn't ideal. I spotted one that fits in between the dash and the...

    Lamin-X fogs
