Got to play with a 172 while I got passed by just about everything on this session :( -wHsqlT6p74 Anyone on here?

Iggy does good :D A few muppets as usual making each lap a succession of drag races, fun though. rb6P2fHk0Ek

Took badges off the boot earlier, much gentle rubbing, claying and polishing later and I'm left with this... Rubbing fingers across these marks they can't be felt at all so it's not an obvious sticky residue or dirt build up that can be cleaned off the surface :S Recommendations as...

...how much is it really worth...decided to find out on the IS. CX-U0xgL2y0 Lots of PVA needed along with earplugs to blank out the wife's moaning...

Igins Sports rock, fact. Nothing else for the money/running costs comes close. j9wMrEjA8QE

Focus was on it's way out, 4 corroded springs at recent MOT and 124k + lots of wear and dings. So...I've been thinking about one for these for about two years now, and last night finally thought "f*** it" why not. Decided on £2k cost-to-change as a limit and hoped for £1k on the Focus...

Clart bobbing about next to me on this one. Quickest session I caught on camera. :approve: SvWbGQtkaGE

I've waited 6 years to come across one of these on track, nice, just a shame we only got a few laps before he cooled down. -iOoHinq_kg

So the owner said anyway. Judging by its pace I'd say he's about right. IsUMJ_6vm7c

These things make my Cup seem like a floaty boat...old skool lovliness at its best. 2rxzCAO46aI Enjoy.

I need a kick in the balls for the ending. oLDg_F0SIZc How are the cheap fall-to-bits coilovers jon?

I did try but he's a slippery f***er. 0unbdhm2cmU Plenty more to follow :approve:

Not f***ing happy!!! I'm at Rockingham in a week, so in advance the Cup got some long overdue TLC today, Tesco carwash followed by a pathetic attempt to rid the wheels of baked on brake dust, tyre pressure check etc. So I'm out giving it its first proper drive since before Christmas...

My mate got the correct spoiler fitted yesterday after a dealership mix-up...I think I'm in lurve and now thinking how much I could get for my lovely mint condition well cared for 172 Cup LOL. The 200 Cup's run in now so had a proper run out in it, I want one, badly.

I'm fed up of having no speedo in my Cup since a 182 'box was fitted, can I go down the route of making it pick up the speed from ABS rings? If so, does the speedometer work on the same inputs or will I need a speedo from a 182?

Got a friend who swears by this. Not seen it mentioned much. Would seem to make sense on a 113k mile engine? What's everyone's thoughts/experiences?

Poor thing, not even a Mk4 Golf deserves this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha9UkvxD-tw

My mate Sean's 200 Cup arrived last Wednesday, so spent Sunday racking up some miles with him. Can't wait until he can drive it properly, he used to give his RB 182 death :approve: lCMbpm3hA98

...or should that be aural :rasp: Found a nice quiet road, waited until no one was around, then teased this one out. Short mNaz5sV-bq4 Long lUDzcayF3Qc I had no idea the V6 airbox and CAF made this much noise (headphones needed to truly appreciate), quite like it though. New K-tec...

Here you go... B4XbamWMnac 2 minutes of sheer bliss kicking my Cup to death around a 4.2 mile long very wide smooth concrete road running through a massive tank training facility. Scooby was the only real good tussle, had my arsed handed to me by a Z4M. Lots of calamity. Rentech get to...

Camera facing backwards for this one, makes you realise just how steep all those climbs and drops were :eek: Some useless marshalling thrown in for good measure too... wszIEedXAo4

Caught it on camera and managed to sort out the ABS debate once and for all while I was at it :approve: A lesson in c0ckiness... hVL7cqqWg6Y

Help for Heroes trackday, Bovington tank track, over 4 miles of undulating 12 metre wide smooth concrete. F***ing epic. I've Got so much footage to get through, so here's a short wet one... 08GJh6yUJGI Weeman you're a c**t obviously, good to see you Chris, and Jon, don't f*** about, give...

...or "I fought the South Downs, and the South Downs won". Went out for a serious hack across the local hills at the weekend, camera facing backwards, very little traffic, lots of overtakes and plenty of pace. Stayed out far too long and the Cup didn't do too well tbh, got in a bit of a mess...

Spent hours yesterday giving my Cup a going over, then woke up today to find this. I know who it is, same c*** that did it last time - he's a gonna get a right kicking. ;) Looks OK I think, it needs lowering slightly though.

...I think it sets the front end off quite nicely. Thanks to Waitey for supplying and Rentech for fitting :star:

Whenever it's connected to the power lead, everything lights up blue as normal, then the screen flashes red 5 times then shuts down, leaving only the buttons illuminated blue. Road Angel website says this means it needs new firmware, so I've downloaded the latest software release, but as it...

My run in with the cone at Goodwood was a little more severe than I thought. Spent this morning at Rentech with a new gear linkage and a lot of determination. Ended up with a working 2nd or a locked 5th, that was it. So a new 'box is required :( I'm just after sympathy really. It'd...

After my run-in with a turn-in cone last weekend, I'm just about to stick the Cup on axle stands and get underneath. Bloke in the pits said the same thing happened to him, and that the 'pinch-bolt' had been knocked causing the linkage to not line up properly or something. Trial and error fixed...

Thanks to the delectable jon_r for the handy camerawork. Best viewed in HQ with the volume UP. Introducing, my back garden... acC7t0cLVOM
