Ha ha ha. Genuine LOLs. Suggestions or is my trying to convert you into an avid watcher a lost cause? Oddly, and I really mean that...I find it very odd...I have a very good watch time stat...even when I load up these long ones a high proportion of viewers tend to watch them all the way through.

Oh he did...I just edited him out or else the entire thing would have been 50 minutes long! I wanted to focus on the drive of the 440...but he's still got the new car buzz so properly gushes about all the gadgets and stuff LOL I have to admit I really did like it...right up until I climbed...

Thanks for arranging this Tim...mega turnout! I was happy enough with mine...especially as Charlie said it was one of the better ones he's run. Highlight of the day for me? After everyone had gone I was sat in the car setting up for a last short piece to camera...and witnessed this. Oh yeah...

Yep. I can motion track your face and you can even choose the grade of pixelation if you like.

They're to follow James. I have part 2 of this 440 comparison to edit and upload first and I'm at Surrey Rolling Road tomorrow so the 160 gb of skid pan footage I have won't get touched for another week or so at least!

Oh yes, this was a fun drive and annoyingly I kind of got along OK with the 'box...

I'll be waving a video camera around for a fair chunk of the day so if anyone doesn't want to appear briefly or otherwise in something that might find its way onto my YouTube channel please let me know tomorrow and I'll make it like you were never there...

I would do exactly this if I actually ever spent any money...but generally I don't, so I don't.

Mr mk 2 RS has now had to bail so it's just me and the 440 now.

Does it go away? Should it go away? I thought it was a by-product of the aggressive friction material simply grinding steel so it would always do it so long as you're at a particular temperature and braking with a particular pressure. I used to get it a lot with PF97 pads on my 172 Cup...

Yup. Several hundred LOL <<<<<

I'm still shuffling!

LOL. Howdy stranger!

OMFG Stupidity and/or self belief beyond, err, belief. He recovers a couple of man points by sharing the video though. Hero etc.

Ha ha, never...I'm staying put in the RS! A day hooning about in the 440 yesterday has convinced me of this even more! Seating position is/was hilarious...when I climbed in it was as high as it could go, the wheel was as far away as possible and the backrest was f***ing horizontal. I got quite...

My 4WD RS friend can't make it now but I have a new nice standard mk2 FWD RS friend who should be coming along instead. He may or may not run...I'm urging him to give his garage queen a bit of a run!

I have, yes, but the thought of me making a video about me making a video even makes me feel a bit nauseous! Being serious I do intend to do a simple filming in-car one, what angles/mounts and locations for cameras but more importantly...the importance of good audio. So many just stick a GoPro...

I'll say that I've added more layers but for understandable reasons I'm not going to detail or vlog about them! Am I concerned about it being taken? Not really...sleepy village, private work car park, relatively crime free area...as @ColinG said in another thread, if they want it versus...

LOL, pinch. Or maybe not FLOL

Exactly! I have to punch myself when I think about the wall poster cars from my youth that my family hatchback would now out perform. Madness.

Nice barge but not knowing the stats I expected much more than this. That's pretty much on par with my Focus...and mine feels a very very long way from rocket ship pace. Quick though, plenty quick enough. Enjoy it! Tech aplenty!

Great production!

These look very appealing...and depreciation should be steep...could/would make it an ideal used daily to run when I retire the RS.

So, this is now fully run in...I should get a day blasting about in it back to back with my RS next weekend. Nervous is an understatement...I've gotten used to the safety and security of AWD and the thought of all of that power and torque through just one axle makes me poop a little bit.

After living with them on my 172 Cup for all those years and then regretting massively that I sold them for buttons...a good set of Turinis make me moist. Even more so when they're wearing some proper rubber. Good f***ing work, looks fantastic!

Having lived with wireless charging for two years I can absolutely see the benefit at home or work. Phone charging, phone rings, pick up, talk, roam the house/office, hang up, put down, continue charging. vs Phone charging, phone rings, pick up, talk, hang up, put down, continue charging. or...

I don't, no, I only ever do the neutral clutch up thing if I'm stopped and know there'll be a wait. It works really well on the Focus...it's really quick to fire up, there's never any wait, it's just ready to go when I want to go. Pah! It takes no longer than most people take to stow bags...

That's a monumental turd.

The reason I'm OK with it must be that it just works so well on the RS. I've tried catching it out but can't. No matter what I do it's always running just fine by the time I've got the clutch on the floor ready to select 1st gear.

It seems to be electrical gremlins only...three times it's happened in completely different circumstances and it's always resolved itself immediately. It seems to not really be an issue but I will report it come service time and show them the video footage I have just so it's reported and...
