    MarkCup's 2017 Ford Focus RS

    Graphtastic episode that one :D Mental running costs for the day, I’m glad the Mazda doesn’t get through pads etc like that! And glad to see no lasting damage. I know you’ll prefer the Mk3 to the Mk2, but definitely enjoy that engine ;)

    Tyres gone off?

    Yeah, not uncommon. Actually earlier this year we were having real issues with the MX5 - bouncy as hell and mad levels of axle tramp on launches. The PS3s came with the car but I suspected they might be a bit old. To prove my theory, I wanged them up to 38psi - way too hard but enough to prove...

    Steady footage but with the camera mounted quite far out. Most single legged ones won’t do.

    DashCommand is the best I’ve used.

    One of my favourite cars on the market, the GT2RS.

    I'd never dream of putting £2k of camera on it, and definitely not without a secondary tether anyway, but I get what you're saying. I don't need it for too much so I can't really justify forking out megabucks.

    Photography Chat and Questions Thread

    HI again everyone. Anyone found a half decent suction mount that lets you mount the camera pretty flexibly, yet (hopefully) sturdily, like so? The above is £129 but I was wondering whether anyone had found anything that works well for less. I know I could probably build one for a pretty low...

    Apparently it’s a DBS Superleggera, 710bhp and 900nm of torque. Tasty!

    Question for the Rally guys!

    It’s an age old struggle. The ones who do want to do it get carsick and the ones who don’t get carsick aren’t interested.

    Rally day 2018

    I always go to Rallyday. It’s epic. Usually get a good showing from the M-Sport boys but there’s all sorts there. It’s like the Goodwood of rallying.

    Project Binky - mini 4x4 turbo celica engine

    I don’t care if it takes 10 years TBH. Only they could make a half an hour video about making a set of wipers and make it both interesting and funny. I like it when they pop up in my inbox once a while.

    M100CUP - RB 182 Sprint and Hillclimb Car

    Ah, that's a shame. Yes, it's at RRH Portreath. But it's a good event, sadly you can't have any cameras there but you'll have to trust me, it's a good one. Hillclimb-ey for the most part but then goes onto the runway with a fast slalom.

    M100CUP - RB 182 Sprint and Hillclimb Car

    I got turned down for Watergate too. I'll still be going though! See you at Castle, are you planning on driving at Portreath?

    Unknown hidden electronic device found in new car?

    They don’t. Probably a bomb.

    Summer heat soak

    As a (very!) rough rule, 1 degree increase in IAT = 1bhp decrease in power, so the difference between summer and winter can easily be 20bhp+. It’s not so much heat soak but air density. Apparently the gold heat reflective tape can produce real drops in IAT though, I’m anxious to try wrapping my...

    Potential Volvo Purchase

    Oh, definitely. But that's what you're thinking of when you hear the words, 'Turbo V8 Volvo'

    Potential Volvo Purchase

    Good idea, terrible execution. What you really want is an LS swap.

    Goodwood Festival of Speed 2018 - July 12th-15th

    Yup. That would be a genuine mistake normally.... but he’s done it before. You’d have thought once was enough. Shame really.

    WHAT DOES IT f**king SOUND LIKE?!?! Imagine posting a review of a custom exhaust without taking the opportunity to share videos of the noise! I thought better of you. Looks really good, nice work!

    Engineers, Solidworks or Inventor or Fusion 360?

    I’ve used Solidworks, Pro Desktop, AutoCAD and Blender, prefer Solidworks the most TBH. I have heard some fairly good things about inventor but nothing in comparison to SW.

    Volvo V40

    Someone told me once that the diagram on the heater control panel is a seal balancing a beach ball on its nose. I can’t unsee it now.

    Volvo V40

    Leather armchairs. The R-design ones on the C30 are the same just with T-tec fabric, neither are as good as the seats you’ve got.
