I run R888s when dry and have only had a chance to use them in very very slightly damp conditions once.
But on my second set of wheels I want a tyre which I can rely on in wet/rain.
I know R888s work in the wet too but wasn't sure how much I could push them this weekend at the 'Ring and...
So when I open my browser. I like it to be on the Google search bar. With a load of tabs below for my most frequently used websites.
i Used to have it so CS was the first tab. But somehow I've managed to click the little 'X' button in the corner of the CS tab and now it's gone.
If you...
The back end of this video.
Have to say I think the Cup car looks bloody awesome.
Lets see what he says about it.
Sorry if a repost.

Basically, looking at trailers, there's two in my county which have really caught my eye.
I would normally happily go down for a look and try the Clio on them for size. But I don't have my Clio at the moment so this is obviously not possible.
So all I can really go off for the time being is...
Not sure what the technical term actually it.
But does anyone know the actual length, from front of front wheel to rear of rear wheel please?
Clio 182, if it matters.
Cheers.
Popped to Brands yesterday evening..
I think I saw 4 Clios. One of them was obviously your cup Grayham.
But these two on track caught my fancy.
Both identically set up apparently.
One of them was being driven extremely well.
Always think about this, and always wonder the actual difference in weight between the two starting platforms.
So does anyone actually have facts? Not just claimed weights.
What does the 172 Cup not have that the 182 does? How much weight does that equate to?
What does a 182 FF have that...
Here's the first video from Brands Hatch last Thursday PM.
Still in the process of editing and uploading others so I will link them in this thread once done.
This is just a drive by compilation. There were plenty of 1*2s out on track but the in car footage, which shows this better, is...
Around 3pm on Sunday.
Saw the CS sticker on the back window.
Looked to have a full car of people.
Went past you on my way to some hairdressing appointments in a convertible TTS
Need to pull my finger out and actually buy some of these.
Where's the best price?
Heard it was Danny@519.
Anyone know differently before I call him.
Only a small price I know but every little helps ;)
EDIT: Aha, reading fail. For some reason I read it as fitted. Not just the kit. Makes sense now.
This seems ridiculously cheap if you ask me...
Especially with a dephaser included.
I know it's a non official cambelt kit but how much can that save off the genuine price?
I'd be surprised if...
Here's a couple of videos from my day at Bedford recently.
We (I took my dad along) were the first to arrive and ended up being the last to leave as well. Had the track to ourselves at one point in the afternoon.
All in all a very good day and lots of fun. Car was faultless and held up very...
Noticed this very slight tappety noise appear when driving along. It's not the Dephaser, that was replaced in January.
The noise completely disappears when I press the clutch down and returns when I release it. Clutch itself feels fine. Indicates to me maybe it's something to do with the...
I would like to 'attempt' to fit some sort of ducting for the brakes.
Haven't done any searches as of yet apart from a few Google clicks.
Thought before I start I'd just see if anyone has all the info to hand which they would be able to share :) or to point me in the right direction..
How...
Think I caught the plate.
Saw you driving along the Addiscombe Road in Croydon this morning at about 6.10.
I know you're on here as I saw the CS sticker on the back window this time ;)
Wasn't a bad track, but I wouldn't be rushing back there. I had a voucher from the organisers. Better in the morning rain/wet allowing us to focus on controlling the spins rather than out right speed laps, but was a good fun day though!
Clio held up very well against the other cars. There...
How do you jump start when you have a race battery. Say a Varley Ret Top 25:
http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=692_694&products_id=4432
My jump leads have 'pinching teeth' and there is nothing to grab on those battery terminals.
Anyone got a simple solution to this?
Cheers
Battery has had it. Need to sort out a new one and hopefully get it fitted by Thursday when I'm driving up to Oxford for a track day Friday. Thankfully my dad doesn't work so he can do all the running around for me whilst I work.
Looking at Varley and Oddssey 25 batteries. Cheers Kelv for...
First off. How hard is it to remove the rear wiper and motor without damaging anything.
Also, where is the best place to get a rear wiper blank? Any of the traders on here do them? What price am I looking at?
Cheers
So I'm told the cap on the Mocal catch tank I have is breathable. Certainly looks like it could be.
Is that sufficient for pressure release or will I need connect a small filter still?
I think I can recall reading somewhere that these breathable caps were not enough to stop seals from...
I think my alternator needs replacing. But I need to go and see my mate today to get the full story. Was only told this through my dad who death with it yesterday.
Ive got a 182 FF with pure Motorsport air con delete kit.
If the alternator does need replacing. I think the bolt holes are...
