    Donington GP Race Report

    As in our Elise, as opposed to an Elise? Bear in mind we do a complete arrive and drive, maximize testing and make a lot of (not required!) mods so are not reflective of the series as a whole. We spend at £3k a round on being there, plus whatever we've done to the car itself. Duratec conversion...

    Wow. Daytona Content.

    A 365 GTB4 Daytona 'Competition' being sold by Talacrest. IMO, the perfect paintjob. Makes it looks subtle/beautiful/purposeful all at once.

    Skills?

    Amazing skill! Love that people are still around doing things old school.

    The New Focus ST

    Just think they look awful, personally. Too much going on...really noticeable shutlines, just not my thing again. My neighbour works at Ford and has had an estate version for ages. When it is parked to mine you can tell VW and Ford have completely opposite design philosophies! I'm a less is more...

    130i stretching it's legs

    Looked like an ace trip! Car looks good though...though scared of thought of a lemon interior!

    Rocket Bunny Scion FRS (Toyota GT86)

    Cool static pics... Of course, the problem here is your 'affordable' FRS plus a kit, plus fitting (incl. massive bodywork), plus wide wheels, plus suspension, plus engine upgrades so it isn't all mouth must put into the territory of some very decent cars.

    Rocket Bunny Scion FRS (Toyota GT86)

    Looks awesome now. Looked a bit weird on the little BBSs.

    Donington GP Race Report

    No. Very few series will you actually win money, and if you, it tends to be because the entry fees are higher. They have instead made it as cheap as they can, which brings the big, 40+ car grids. Pretty impressive when a lot of series are really struggling right now... The induction is not...

    Thanks guys! Glad we have got the shot at the title we deserve really...just hope it all stays in one piece at Snett!

    Donington GP Race Report

    After a successful outing at Zolder, last weekend it was back to the UK and to the penultimate round of Lotus Cup. This time up it was Donington, on the GP circuit which would be a first for me. The race weekend layout was an odd one, half a test day on Thursday, track day on Friday (on the...

    The Aston Martin V8 Vantage

    I actually think the DB9 represents more of a bargain. I think it's a better looking car, or classier as people like to put it! It is isn't a pretender, just a classic GT car. The V8 came on the scene to defeat the 911, but it didn't. I personally couldn't pull alongside a 911 believing i'm in...

    Rear spacers would certainly help, but yeah, think the wheels are a bit small. Mudflaps are also suspect...

    The 250's replacement?

    A GTR hardly has comparable running costs! I'd finance a 1M personally rather thank sinking money into a 135i. I've not ready a glowing report on the 1-Series, it should be better than it is. The 1M on the other hand, has been rated better than the M3. It is rarer, much more special, and will...

    Porsche 962 (on the road)

    Ugly thing, but very cool.

    Quattro S1 replica

    Actually, imagine that was a fairly cost effective way of doing things! Bear in mind the Subaru base car would have been a few grand... Looks awesome.

    When is an escort not an escort?

    Very nice, but why would you use a Tuscan chassis and not keep the V8?

    BMW 2002 drift car (2JZ Swap)

    Cool! Just needs rid of those horrid wheels; a set of DTM E30 M3 ones would suit it nicely.

    R56 FJCW

    Not keen on the white but it does look better with the black wheels. Great gains on the mods, must be a proper unruly rocket!

    Tongue in cheek dear, i love them too. Driver didn't have a clue, tbf. This is a better vid in fairness, Ron Simons on it! GORyVLz-e3Q

    Video Format Help Needed!

    Worked it out now! Just took ages to load because it was disc. It also did this weird thing where if you rewinded, it was a completely different bit of footage! Sorted now i copied to to the desktop :o

    Video Format Help Needed!

    Hi Guys, Found an old video on DVD. On the disc, there are separate video and audio files. It is one of those auto-loading things that has chapters and shizzle. I can't open the individual video files in movie maker (they are .VOB files), they just load as blanks... Would love to get them...

    Ferrari Enzo

    Think it would be the first supercar i'd buy if my numbers came up! Cool to see BenR involved! What happened to his business though?

    Zolder Race Report

    Just the same name; think i know the other Rob Fenn you are talking about as i've chatted to him briefly before! I have the timetable now; the race is actually on the 7th and not until about 5pm. Got a bum deal there! Someone passed on this clip where you can see me getting dicked at the start...

    Audi TT Quattro Sport - Clio trophy 147/500 replacement! - Updated Pics Post 142

    Re: Audi TT Quattro Sport - Clio trophy 147/500 replacement! Looks like a great spec and glad to see you are de-chaving it a bit. I would personally have silver wheels to complete it.

    Zolder Race Report

    Thanks for the kind words guys, i try to make an effort with my report (my missus was laughing at me on the sofa last night :dapprove:), but i never am sure if some of the things i say are a 'you had to be there'. Zolder is not that far away, 4.5 hours from London. It is very close to Spa and...

    Britcar 24hr 2012 - Pic heavy

    So what was the noise limit? And why was it enforced like that? Sounds ridiculous and a real shame... especially considering the low entries. Great pics there and nice to see people's write ups on what must be an epic event. Is the FD2 quicker than their old DC5? Presumably the Chevron was...

    Zolder Race Report

    This year's European round was to be at the much forgotten Zolder circuit. Once an F1 circuit until Gilles Villeneuve's death, it has had little investment since. The pit garages are unchanged, so certain elements have a real feel of history about them. And when the older cars are around as a...
