    The first is an analysis of consistentcy [sp?] around the hardest corner I've got experience on. SvDKhLs7eY0 This next one is the reason for my 'off' at the end of the day. VZw0WQshR_4 Enjoy.

    I kicked an S2000s ass...

    That was the plan...I ended up kicking my own though tbh. RKXMk2FFOS0

    I kicked a Skyline's ass...

    Greay day at Goodwood today, lots of interesting cars, and a few new video scalps. I had him through the twisties ;) YpDiSbYb3lU

    All change for my Cup...

    Back to something a little more subtle at last, not quite so 'shouty'. A reminder...this is how it was... After 4 hours of pain, it now looks like this... Much better...just need to get it sitting a little lower now. Comments on my immaculate well cared for...

    Decal remnoval...any tips?

    It's nice and sunny which helps...should I still use a hairdryer to heat them right up or is sunshine enough? Also, what's best for cleaning off the sticky residue left behind? Thanks.

    My 172 Cup keeps dropping into limp mode?

    It's happend about 10 times today, driving along as normal and with no warning or pattern as to why or when, the electrical warning light (below the fuel light) comes on and my speed drops down slowly until it steadys out at about 60mph. Engine refuses to pull above 2,750rpm. There's no...

    Do randoms approach you in petrol stations?

    V owners need not apply ;) Had my first one tonight in over 5 years and 350 fill-ups... Bit wierd really, he asked about all my track stickers then proceeded to bounce the back of his 15 year old Subaru Justy off the ground as we stood there to show me how much fun it was "round t'bends"...

    Lowering springs for my Cup?

    I need to do something about my tractor, and as Sarah's being made redundant soon, spunking north of £700 on the full monty going down the coilover route isn't an option. So, what springs are available that work with standard dampers? Standard on road feel doesn't matter, I'd want them as...

    Removing vinyl decals?

    Stanley knife blade and lots of time or is there a quicker way?

    0-100 mph - it's improved with age

    What's said about them loosening up with miles is all true :approve: That and the diet have given me somewhere between 14 and 15 seconds I think? ZH2tvcUc594

    124 mph in 4th - speedo video

    The lack of torque from 7-8k rpm in 4th is noticeable...it hits a brick wall. Ran out of runway for 5th, shame. odTwrUXNlsM

    Had a bit of a clash...

    Not sure what to do now, opinions needed. I don't think it's too bad but do I; Leave it as is? Do them white? Do them orange? I'm bored btw.

    Pi**ing down at Goodwood

    Ooh, some exterior footage for a change...I think my Cup sounds a wee bit fruity tbh. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ih9GP3wEOJk

    Do laptop mouse 'pads' fail?

    Mine's driving me insane! Alright most of the time but every now and then it has a fit, and it's almost unusable; it stutters, doesn't respond, loses the tap/click function. Doesn't always come back with a reboot/hibernation either. Anyone else had a problem? It's on a Dell Latitude D620 if...

    Two new additions...

    ...one for each side... Sunstrip, mirrors, and wheels are going orange next :evil:

    Rolling road proof - homemade Maxogen and no power steering = ?

    I think it did quite well... Blue line was from January, green line from Saturday just gone. Shows a peak gain of about 10 bhp. Charlie (RR man) says he regularly sees about 7bhp coming back from losing power steering, so that would mean I got 3 bhp from my homemade 'Maxogen'. Not bad...

    Goodwood Revival Meeting - anyone else going?

    I was digging through pictures from a few years ago, forgot how good this is. Where else do you get to see priceless rare cars like these being driven as they were designed to be driven? Anyone else going this year? The racing is proper racing most of the time too, not exhibition...

    Slow ass 197?

    Nope. Blagged a ride with Lee at Bedford in May, only just got round to pulling a video together. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVEVEE9Hb6Q I blame the Red Bull.

    Data transfer from old to new desktop...what options?

    My old PC is creaking, and I can't get the DVD drive to write any data discs, so options are? USB key Standalone HDD Or could I have them both connected through my wireless router then just fire the files straight from one HDD to the other? If not anyone have any recommendations for the...

    I fitted this beautiful thing tonight...

    to this replacing this (urgh) Feels better, seems to pull at high revs better (I'm sure there's some ram effect from the CAF?), definitely sounds better. Rolling road early September will say if it really does perform better. For the cost, this is a great mod IMO.

    Launching technique

    I just knocked this one out in response to another thread. Shows a few launches, wet, dry, loose, s**t. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdBfI0TSTOI

    I need a kick in the balls

    I drove 40 miles to see a mate tonight, wasn't dark when I left, but had sidelights on as sun was very low. Get to his place and as I pulled into his drive I saw the car's reflection...complete with side and fog lights on :eek: - how the f*** I did that I'll never know! Luckily there's no...

    Photoshop heroes? Anyone? Please...

    Could someone 'shop this so that the wheels, door mirrors, and sunstrip are all the same orange as the decal on the rear quarter panel? Need to order another sunstrip since I had my windscreen replaced, and I think I might go back to orange wheels...

    Part no. for ITG Profilter for Espace V6 airbox?

    Anyone? Merlin are clueless about the FRAM no. I got off the paper element it came with, and their site doesn't list a fitment for the Espace V6. I remember seeing a picture on here of someone with one, but can't find it.

    Goodwood Festival of Speed video...

    Filmed on Sunday, a montage of what I saw/heard/smelled - lots of variety. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW40rnL70qs
  28. Tighten My Nuts

    My new airbox, 0-100 mph video, I think it's quicker.

    Certainly feels like it doesn't run out of breath so much at the top of 3rd and 4th. Running this one against the clock I get a low 15 something :approve: N8F2aEgnUMg

    Home made 'Maxogen' fitted today...

    Will get it on the next Surrey Rolling Road to see if this Espace V6 airbox has made any difference. So, the afternoon started with Mike ripping this out... Then after a little jiggling about, this replaced it... Then after a flurry of activity... ...and a little head...

    I'm confused by geek babble...advice needed?

    Assuming all other specs are the same which of these is better...and by how much...loads or just a teeny bit? I'd have thought the quad core would swing it? Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E4600 Processor (2.40GHz, 800MHz, 2MB cache) or Intel® Core™ 2 Quad-Core Q6600 Processor (2.40GHz, 1066MHz FSB...
