    Slick 50 for a high mileage engine?

    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?

    Saw this the other day...

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

    Racing Blue 200 Cup - video + pics

    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

    My Cup gave me oral pleasure...

    ...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...

    I just knocked another short one out.

    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...

    Bovington - a full lap

    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

    Oops, I erm went off 'track'.

    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

    Today I drove everywhere at her majesty's pleasure...

    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...

    An evening out with my Cup...

    ...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...

    M***** F*****. It's happened again GRRR!

    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.

    A tiny little new addition...

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

    Road Angel Compact fault - won't start up?

    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...

    I've got terminal gearbox failure.

    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...

    Gear linkage woes - anyone help?

    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...

    2 new videos

    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

    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...
