Of course not, and I never said it made the Fiesta a failure either, I just said it was a shame. Do you not think this argument also has similarities to the manual gearbox argument? Both are about a driver feeling involved with the experience, and for me like the lack of a clutch pedal a...

If I am honest I haven't read the official press release, but would you not agree the "hot" version of a car is usually aimed at people who enjoy driving? Namely driving enthusiasts.

I was going to offer to tow him with my 6 cylinders of torque!

He didn't but what he did say is that he could feel it interacting. For a car that is supposed to be for driving enthusiasts my opinion is that the driver should have option to be fully on control.

Turning ESP off on the road is a daft idea anyway. You shouldn't be going fast enough to require it so I agree with you there. But as this car will be used on tracks by many people not being able to turn it off was a bit of a strange decision by Ford.

Personally I found that in the Clio, on track in the wet, ESP refused to let me have any power and kept braking wheels and it quite annoying. I wouldn't be happy not being able to turn it off, its not as if it has a million BHP so it doesn't really need it.

I think I spotted you up by j26 the other week. Was going to post a spotted...

It'll be the black box behind the engine rubbing through the wires for the ECU.

Ok. :)

;) I think a car like that is the kind of car that is bought by someone who will at some stage want to be 100% in control.

Did you watch the video?

Looks like its a really good, such a shame the ESP in always on.

I have a ph1 airbox for sale, they have 2 smaller ports rather than the V6's one large port.

Forgot the wink to indicate sarcasm.

Its all the same....

You realise there are at least 5 different types of wheel on that page?

I go for about 110 lb/ft. I think 100 is recommended and some people will use 120.

I think what you have to remember is that many people are just putting across facts. Which with a service such as a remap is quite important. It is well documented on here how their results compare to stand alone impartial rolling roads. Calling them s**t etc. is probably out of order but when...

If the Ktec bashing is to stop, Ktec bummers must also stop.

I will probably be there.

​No dates from what I can see, hopefully I can just stay as I am with my Pro account.

So what will happen to my free BT pro account?

When I was at bedford in march there was a wagon there, it was hilarious how well it went around corners. Awesome cars, would love one. Yours looks like a stunner too!

Really? I thought it was a "thing" with cups. I think I read somewhere they also picked slightly stronger engines for them.. thats probably nonsense too!

172 cups come with RS stamped inlets, and only some 172's do. Also, decent Cups are getting quite rare.

RSTuner > Ktec.

Got cruise control working, but removed the dip clutch to cancel function. hmmm

I think this article may be of some use to this thread. interesting views on track/road tyres. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=27733

I would vote for federal rsr's. Superb on track in both wet and dry conditions and I found they wore well on the road too. Not particularly good in the snow and ice mind!

I am really confused as to why people spend so much money on brake pads for a road car, Brembo OEM pads are perfect for road use.
