I have read so much nonsence about CUPs. Even to the extent that they have a DIFFERENT Gear RATIOS and ENGINE MAPS ( U guys have to understand there is no difference other than a small weight saviing (granted, small increase in performance). Having had all three over three years. This madness is...

Just go to show guys If in doubt stay away. Keep distance as U will have an advantage a little later down the road, without your lives and GFs at stake. Desmondo, please use the law to sort this one out. Want help PM me Mark

None of the above should be necessary as the car will not start without the key. These modern security systems are very good. U cant stop broken glass etc. But then neither will delocks for a 172. It has an excellent system that will not allow any intrusion without brute force. Forcing any of...

I hate these incidents Desmondo, Road rage is so sad as no one gets anywhere in traffic or to be honest anywhewe There is a saying " PRIDE COMETH" BEFORE A FALL". Tests have been done over 3+ miles and about a 30 second advantage is all that can be shown,no matter how fast U drive . (Can...

Guys, bigger diameter wheels will show lower speeds as the final drive is slower, put smaller wheels on and will show a faster speed at top end. This is why one must remember the speedos are calibrated for the standard rolling diameter of any wheel, and even with standard the speedo can be...

Ben J, Your M8 either has a faulty speedo or larger diameter wheels, as they would revolve less for each increase in MPH, bearing in mind all speedos by law register less than actaul speed, Not more. Mark

Sorry to hear about the "incident". Hope U R not too sore. As Joe says, if U have been hit from behind , make the most money U can!!!!!. There is no way anyone who hits U that way can claim any other fault, other than themselfs. Craggy, take care and as the Americans would say "SUE THEIR...

Sorry to potentially disapoint U top enders. Speedos will register about 1-3 MPH above real PLUS up to a 10% add on. No car will read slower than actual. There are Acts of Parliament that will ensure there is no way, and to make sure, the speedos are a long way out at any cars top speed, as...

Gaz, Enjoy the car. Have had MK1 & 2. Both super motas. Just gun that engine quickly. You may or not have the odd rattle in the dash (this car is no Merc. BMW etc. etc.) Never had a real prob. with either. Go out there and give it some. Engines are benched, the handbook is for Rens...

Sorry Paddy good to see your voice again, two months or so in France has kept me away from all your voicings. Easy answer is that if U can pull away cleanly U will get ahead to start, then the CYRs awesome revs with BHP will pick U up then gear change same again. Where do U want to stop. ;)...

Thanks Joe, I could never see any "real world" dif between the two. POwer to weight the same I believe and also their is a little more torque for our babies. This would yet again the slight pull away at lowre revs. yet when that baby came on song it pulled back a little to the gear change. U...
