If you're financial status means you can't afford a set of tyres - then buy some cheaper tyres - or save up for a bit longer. There isn't a supply shortage on Rainsports - you just can't afford them PS. Nice reply

So the thread title is about a supply issue - but the actual issue is you don't want to pay decent money for them and are annoyed you can't get them cheap anywhere? Lame - they're worth the money get them bought! Hardly worth winging about it just to save £20

LOL never mind eh :P I'm still playing with different settings on panning shots Better? :P

Fair enough. But I removed the lovely shiny shims and the calipers were quite rusty. I sanded them down to make the surface smoother but thought a little smear of copper grease would stop them sticking in the carrier

I've done that Fred. I didn't put copper grease on the pads just a ver light smear in the calipers where the ends sit so they can slide ok. Why don't you use copper grease on race pads? Heat related?

Cheers guys. Dave the shims were back in but now back in bin lol Filed them down ever so slightly and put copper grease on ends. Work a treat Bedded them in for a short drive and WOW. Looking forward to FCS now :D

I've just got my ds2500s - the 565 model as recommended I've read Freds advice to remove the shims and file down. I've looked though and they don't have shims. Has the design changed? Do I still need to file anything down before fitting? Thanks

Soft my arse lol - you try doing better at 1/100th hand held :p Also the focus is actually on if you view it at full size but the bloody drift cars vibrate like mad Hard to find a balance between getting some movement in the shot with a slower shutter speed - and keeping the car looking crisp...

Chances are it's just fallen inside - if you pop the gear lever surround off you should be able to see it Are you sure the alarm works - as obviously the central locking would still work off the keyfob in the same way even if the alarm had been removed

Try Jessops They still have them in stock at most stores

Brembo High-Carbon Discs and Ferodo DS2500's Both ordered yesterday afternoon and both arrived first thing this morning Good old demon tweeks - and massive thanks to "G 172" from here for the discs :D

Yeah true I guess.. Took this at 40mm with my 17-40mm f4L. Had to crop but I quite like the perspective created by a wider lens

Love this!! Quite like the look of the front bumper with the spot light bits cut out - Might give that a crack on mine!!

You'll be struggling to get new bodies after the floods wiped out most of the canon/nikon factories :( IMO you don't want full frame for track photography - you want the reach of crop Full frame is lovely for portraits. I use a 5d MkII and 7d loads - the 7d's autofocus system pisses on...

7D - without a doubt Got one 2 months ago - was shooting the drifting at mallory park with it on Saturday The autofocus system is out of this world. Nothing else touches it. If you're doing motorsports it's perfect!

Video from Mallory Park yesterday New suspension was brilliant - car was much more balanced and the back end felt better planted The brakes were utterly s**t - completely killed them on the first session. By the time I got to the 2nd session (the youtube one) I had to stomp on them to get...

Nah that's cool - I'm gonna be there Got to get FCS out the way lol

Thats me mate yeah. We need to get a meet on the go

NAS Drive FTW Get one with Raid and 2 x 1TB hard drives - that way you don't have to worry about network access They share over the internet just by plugging them into your router Job done - cost about £200

Earpl - no it doesn't lol But then I can't drive with the windows up anyway because the exhaust deafens me lol As I said it's just temporary for PPC and FCS so I can get some weight over the back wheels - then it's being replaced for a solid battery

That'd be awesome I'm taking my dslr - always annoys me that I take lots of good pics of other people then none of my own lol

That's also the main reason it's on the passengers side ;) LOL

I'm on in session G!! The battery mount I hit with a hammer - it's going nowhere. I was a bit iffy about the strap too but it's doubled over and pretty secure I don't want to spend too much money on it as I'm planning on swapping it for a race battery at some point Camera thing does bolt into...

Been keeping myself busy this last week Found a cheap battery tray on ebay so set about moving the battery to the boot Chuffed with it - car isn't quite as back end happy any more which is a good thing and after attacking the gearbox mount bit with an angle grinder I found a nice place to...

They're discontinued because a week or so ago Henk said he's not making any more and not making maps for them anymore

That cage looks epic!!!

Count me in 1. Jamie 2. Phil (Fuzzy Orange)

Don't want to remove them as they have the alarm sensors on and I want to keep the alarm

Yuck!!! You'll be lucky to get that to look consistant and/or work on every browser lol Do it properly :p
