    Oddball Drift Car

    Saw this and thought it was cool as fcuk! Would probably fall apart in 5 mins though... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/649281.htm

    Is this a Cup?

    Confused about this one as it has leather but doesn't have the grey wheels. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/587250.htm

    Detailing - Worth it?

    I don't have the time/ability/patience to detail my own car. I have looked around and it looks like i can get a thorough detail done for about £300. Thing is though, i will never clean my car properly and my garage is too small to fit it into... all it will get is its weekly clean from my local...

    Racing at Silverstone

    My dad and i were at Silverstone at the weekend for Britcar. It was interesting using the smaller International circuit, which i have no past experience of, and there is a good mix of corners with two hairpins, a very fast double apexed left and most of the best bits from the full circuit. Our...

    Snetterton Photos

    This was a LOT event so mainly Lotuses. My dad's has recently had a rebuilt k-series (230bhp instead of 190bhp), a central seat and the engine bay is now full of gold (looks like wrapping paper to me...) to reflect some heat! Pushing the crash out of my mind, it was a great day with some nice...

    It was all going so well...

    Oh, to be back at Tuesday. I was in fine spirits, arriving at Snetteron with my dad for a test day. We had brought his freshly repaired and re-built Exige for a shakedown. I had also fitted a new rear wheel, spring and had the geo setup on the CSL so was keen to get it on track the next day. The...

    Pontiac Solstice

    Was browsing for Jap cars and came across this... the Pontiac is the same as the new Opel Speedster, just re-bodied.

    Wheel Cleaner

    I did a track day a couple of weeks ago and have left the car since standing on the drive. I attempted to clean the wheels with two different types of wheel cleaner, Turtle Wax and Superguard that was a foamy one. Anywho, despite having a good go at them i still have a residue firmly stuck on...

    SLK

    The old man has got himself another hairdressers car! To be fair though it handles considerably better than the old one he used to have, but this is a bit gutless. Its an SLK200, no idea what engine it has, dog slow... but love the wheels on it.

    Track Pics

    Car was shocking today, with my dad kerbing the wheel i think hes buckled the wheel or at least knocked the geo out... was a bit scary! The APs were smoking after a few laps too, not sure if its down to the pads or what... After kerbing the wheel and denting the car earlier my dad also managed...

    Paying a Photographer - How much?

    Hi Guys, I have a few mag features lined up for my NSX when its complete, but in the past when featured they aren't particularly helpful in providing photos or a PDF version of the article which would be nice for prosperity... This time round, with the amount of money myself and my dad have...

    Genetically Superior!

    As you're probably aware, most 'M' models tend to have pretty weak brakes as standard. I didn't find them too bad, but a single pot caliper is never going to last for sustained periods on track. So i've fitted front and rear APs using the same calipers as used on my NSX. To save a bit of cost...

    FTP Help!

    Hi Guys, Client has given me his FTP details and they haven't been working. He's gone back to the hosts and sent me the details... so they should be right. I go to log in and it says "Connected to (IP Address) Port 21" It holds that message for 10 seconds then the connection fails... Any...

    Brands Hatch Race

    Have been at the Brands the last couple of days, again in my dad's Motorsport Elise. The car now has some Ohlins and the clams are now quick release... Friday started well, we were quick in the test sessions but unfortunately the clutch went at lunch, i'm getting a reputation as a car...

    We host all of our clients (about 50) on a server with Rackspace. They have their own anti-spam thing that they update and we have nothing to do with. Other than that, we recommend using Spambully to clients which is for individuals opposed to server side. Some of my clients are technophobes...

    Elises first race - Pic Whorage

    Me and my dad were at Snetterton this weekend to take part in the Britcar race as an invitation entry. Watching Top Gear, i thought it was going to mean all manner of cars and to be honest i was looking forward to a class victory! Problem was, our 'Production' class rules were extremely vague...

    CSL's First Outing (56ker Doom)

    Was a bit worried i'd be disappointed with the CSL on track, but it was fappin awesome! Had to go easy on the brakes, but other than that the car was blinding. Was lapping at 58 seconds, which is the same time as ex-Ferrari Challenge cars in a recent Intermarques race, so can't want to get the...

    Englebert Senior's new motor

    Englebert Senior has been getting jealous of my motoring activities of late, so has acquired himself a new play thing. Despite looking every bit like a Lotus Exige it is more confusingly titled a 'Lotus Motorsport Elise.' They made 65 of them, this being 1 of 3 RHD ones. Most of them were raced...

    Silverstone Trackday

    Finally got on track today after a 6 month break! Started off well, ending up in the gravel on the first corner of the first lap in a Motorsport Elise. Later in the day i blew up an Elise (k-series...) engine, thank the lord they weren't my cars! :o Anyway, took some snaps in between sessions...

    172s in Sevenoaks

    Keep seeing a Mk1 172 when i walk into work, driving past the station? Think it has had the same owner for a while. Also regularly see a silver Mk2 172 with carbon bonnet and resprayed wheels. Have a feeling the owner works at the local Renault dealer as i see parked up opposite. Anyone?

    My CSL

    I recently sold my VX220 after about 11 months of ownership. Although it was great when you were 'in the mood,' it was just too much of a compromise for the rest of the time. I started to looking for an M3 after deciding i didn't want 4cyls or FWD/4WD. I wanted a degree of practicality but...

    Honda NSX-R Stolen

    1 of only 2 later NSX-Rs in the country has been stolen. Very distinguishable being white with white wheels. I'd appreciate it if you could spread the word. http://nsxcb.co.uk/testvb/showthread.php?t=4460 Cheers, Rob
