Stiff! * the car, not me

I had no idea what it was!

This sounded like thunder today

Cladding? Oooh, I best go back and finish that one until the end then!

WTF? I thought they only came in the one non-colour raw stainless?

Especially if whatever they're doing seems to be working!

I did similar to yourself (I left the standard passenger seat in, but removed a few engine related things to offset)...and that removed 117kgs from my 172 Cup.

Very nice, I'd love to have a proper go in one of these.

Also, I can bring some home grown chillis, we could have a chilli eating competition to find last man standing/breathing?

I now feel duty bound to. CS is rapidly approaching having been 20 years of my life. I'm getting on, I don't know how long I have left, and I have so many "C**t!"s to give in person.

I'll happily provide a free basic or intermediate Excel training course/introduction for everyone. I have a big screen, projector, lots of slides, that's bound to go down well.

I think we spoke? If so, nice to meet you!

Watching this thing on the Autosolo yesterday, it's absolutely mental. We'll it was until an oil line disconnected and sprayed the engine bay ☹️

A couple from Goodwood today. The GR Yaris looks a lot of fun exiting the chicane!

I'm glad it's not just me today 😁

If I had the space, I would buy the first half decent standard and original one of these that came along. That's a lovely car 😍

The 172 Cup seats were the same as normal 172/182 seats except for the side airbags, seat covering, and non-adjustable headrests (IIRC the 172/182s came with half bendy ones you could adjust?). They had the same bolstering etc so they weren't quite full on budget spec seats from lower down the...

Plenty of whoppers in here...

Doesn't that drop to a more reasonable rate after a few years? My Cayman is £565 a year forever + whatever increases happen year-on-year!

Bass/treble sliders and auto reverse. Impressive!

IIRC it was 27kgs for the original seat + mount vs 12 or 15kgs for the fixed bucket.

They drill a pilot hole, you locate it, then tell them up/down/left/right etc.

I can't even begin to imagine what driving that car would feel like. Just about the exact same weight as my stripped 172 Cup, but with a 725bhp NA V12 behind you, f*** off big tyres, f*** off big brakes, and 1500 kgs of downforce pushing all of that into the tarmac. That's mind bending.

I don't know what shell mode means, but you can set your laptop not to shut down/sleep when you close the lid, it's in the wWindows Power settings.

I can't see why an RS6 would even be in the running for a fun car when you have another load-lugger. R8 all day long.

I didn't go there intending to film anything, I certainly didn't expect to get a run up the hill in it! I had a brand new GoPro that I'd not recorded anything with yet and only intended on getting some b-roll about the event...so it was very much make do and mend! It was a weapon for...

Yer, welcome mate, I hope you stick around.

Nice one, I've just subscribed after watching 60s of his Esprit tear down. You're right about his production, I winced at how long some of the things I saw would take to do!

That's good going for such a large pricey things 👍
