Stickers rock. Go for it!

Time for a trip down memory lane...

Nice work!

I'm moist tbqh.

Or get a flat one with a spacer...I've got 60mm IIRC...and it could still do with being a little closer.

I completely fail to see the link between speed and fun. I have more fun on my daily commute in my 85 bhp/ton Focus than I do in my Cup. Why? Because I can drive it pretty much flat out everywhere, and you have to think about your driving, make sure you are smooth, keep the momentum up...

I've never really heard mine from the outside much...must go out and find a quite stretch of 'airfield', set a camera up and give it death.

Mine here...no rasping going on at all...much... Jb2vU6s1fWY

I thought the Mk1s were a bit raspy - is that what you've got? My Mk2 is nothing like that...it's really deep and bassy.

Nope, nope, nope.

Here's a short clip of mine, Yozzasport decat and MkII Stealth...sounds noisy as car's a bit bare. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb2vU6s1fWY I love it.

Is that good or bad? Would/could it be because for 99.9% of its 107,000 mile life so far it's only ever been fed Shell Optimax/V-Power?

Mine's been MOT tested a couple of times with the decat on, both times it was almost a pass, 2 of the levels were ok, the 3rd was only just slightly over. Why is that if everyone else's fails badly?

I agree totally with the OP. I've long said ABS and traction control breed poorer drivers. Stick a 9 inch spike out from the centre of everyone's steering wheel. The illusion of safety would be gone, and everyone would drive like saints. People I know who have such aids tend to lean on...

I know they're light, and masses of fun...but for me the tales of owenership woe and expense, compared to the (almost) bulletproof reliability of the S2000 let's them down. 240bhp in just over a ton would be hard to resist though!

That's arousing.

According to you... According to me, and many others who own and watch a Sky HD box...the HD channels are massively superior compared to the SD ones. So what if it's not 'true HD', that's not what I paid for. I wanted a superior picture quality for £10 and that's what I got, so I and many...

One of them there TVRs was at the Surrey RR day yesterday. Sounded imense when it pulled up, was rattling everything as it idled away, sounded like pure thunder. Then he ran it up, and it posted a MASSIVE 200 bhp - good ol' Rover V8s. Err...I'll have an S2000 please.

Impressive vid. Slide at 4:05 didn't look all that scary to me; he obviously made it go on purpose.

As said above, regardless of what it actually is that they show you on the HD channel...it is infinitely superior to the SD channels. So, £10 per month for 30 channels...that's good value to me.

Out of curiosity, how much road would a 1?2 need from 70 to 140? 2 miles? 3? 4?

Update: New throttle body fitted...70 miles covered today, hasn't dropped into limp mode once. On the old body, the same journey saw it go about 10 times. Fixed for tomorrow :approve:

Or am I being thick and the track is called M1/Autobahn?

Which track can a 172/182 hit an indicated 140 on? At Castle Combe, Goodwood, and Bedford (1km straight) I never see more than 120 indicated. Either you're running 300 bhp, or there's a track with a very long straight somewhere?

Nice. I got caught in the wrong gear by one of those. Embarrassing.

So long as it's warm I agree. Not driven on R888s but I've tried a few other brands/compounds, and the one thing none of them like is the cold. So long as it's warm, as said above, I'd take them on a damp track over any 'standard' road-going tyre.

Superb.

Great video that...good demonstration of throttle being the answer.

Re: My Ph1 172 track sl*g Progress Thread I truly wish I had your skilz, nice work.
