I had a "pure poo" this morning. It was lovely stuff.

Like Tony says, just get a lower profile tyre so the circumference of the wheel stays the same. That will also keep things like your speedo accurate as well.

How would you make him pay Steve?

Higher top speed. Slower acceleration.

Now get to your room and think about what youve done!

Well in my opinion the way that EVO was weaving all over the bumper of that Elise was dangerous. You are right that the whole point of a trackday is to test the limits of your car but you must still be a little bit careful. Fair enough if you want to drift around a few bends but just make sure...

aledw, Do you know what that guy was driving? The F40 is amzing isnt it!

No you are right it is not a track car but she was on a track and should therefore drive accordingly. If she wanted to drive it like a rallye car then she should go on an off road day. As for you trying it yourself go for it, but trust be you will be black flagged before you know it.

Sorry mate. I have plenty of experience and that sort of driving does not conform to track day etiquette.

Good yes but not the quickest way to get around a track. Fair enough if it was an empty track but there were other cars to think about.

To be honest I was amazed that the stupid cow managed to walk away from it. That was a big accident and she was lucky not to end up in hospital.

What you talking about. This is bloody hilarious! Classic comments from CooperSboy.

Think Ill give her a ring too!

I think Simon172 has Eagle F1s. They are meant to be better but they are also a fair bit more expensive.

Jesus £350! Thats harsh.

Check out mytyres.net. I just manged to find 195/50/15 Toyo Proxes for £29.40 each including postage and packing!

Mine started doing it over xmas but it seems to have righted itself now. Strange.

I used to have a Citroen AX and that didnt have a syncro-mesh on 1st gear.

Good question! Mine is also smooth. Maybe it just wears off.

Hello Griff! Long time no hear!

That is very very bad. Id get in touch with trading standards mate.

Looked like just a bit of banter to me.

Why was it closed?

"Thats funny tumbleweed - "I toasted a cup" you say So is yours quicker then than a cup?? " Very possibly as the 172 engines loosen up quite considerably after a few thousand miles. Cups are all very new so the engines are probably a bit tight.

Yes I realise that but Renault must have got that figure from somewhere. Perhaps the mk1 that was weighed had the steel bonnet?? That might account for the difference. Either way it is pointless arguing. All we can say for sure is that the Cup is 89kg lighter than the mk2 and the mk1 falls...

Interesting that none of our female members have replied to this thread!

The test has already been done. I think a mk1 and mk2 were tested with full tanks and the mk1 came out at 1100 and the mk2 at 1120. If you have an aluminium bonnet you will probably know as it is incredibly light. You can lift it with your little finger!

The 1100kg was taken with a full tank of petrol. I think the 1035kg Renault quote is for an empty tank. Also there is some confusion over the weight of mk1s as the early ones came with aluminium bonnets and steel on the later ones which obviously affects the kerb weight.

Thats going to be tough to beat!
