December 2003, 96,000 miles.

Ouch, looks really nasty. Could have been so much worse.

I can't understand why you'd want to do that?

Origin b2 works well.

The detail at the join between bumper and wing is nice.

There are non-carbon composite seats weighing less than 6kgs in the Demon Tweeks 2008 catalogue.

I don't normally 'do' modified, but I'd be very happy if that were sat outside right now.

Whatever they are they operate at or up to something like 1,500 rpm. V-tec or anything similar it is not. It's to help the tickover I think. Anyone?

F***in' ay! My Cup doesn't get stored, but it now has the luxury of being 'rested' from the daily grind. That does mean more of its miles are now hard driven, so it needs longer rests. At 96 it's not as young as it used to be.

Sounds nice. Let us know when you're at a track nearby, would love to see this in action.

It's 1.6mm. I'm stunned no one else knows that?

Heavy! The ones I've got my eye on are 5.6kgs each ;)

Yeah come on tell all...what's yours running? I know what you mean about the technique and lap strategy though. What I've changed over the last two years since I really started focussing, practicing and learning has made a massive difference. You've just illustrated very nicely that I still...

So, I'm intrigued, breakdown where your 9 seconds comes from? Line? Brakes? Tyres? Engine? I had that sort of time difference at Rockingham between me and a well driven Honda powered Elise (to be expected) - I'd have thought I'd be on a par compared to a ZS180.

:cool:

Is this still the case with the latest generation of 1080p LCDs? My Panasonic 42 inch plasma is knackered, and there's none in stock, anywhere. But there's 42 inch 1080p LCDs out there for similar money to what I paid for my 1080i plasma. I'd consider taking one just to get the whole thing...

Standard? Sure I could hear some brakes squealing? Nice lap though - rapid too if the timing's right - 1:20? Have I really got that much to find?

That was my 2nd time there I think - been back 3 or 4 times since though.

It is. Standard springs, standard dampers, standard everything on the chassis except brakes and tyres.

180 is ambitious - The ECU adds nothing other than a higher limiter so probably a real 175 or so. Don't plan on touching the engine any further, brakes are top-notch already, just got to finish stripping it, then fit steering wheel, seat, harness, and some proper suspension next year.

I had semi-click track tyres on - probably worth 2-3 seconds per lap. Looking at my lines on that clip though, there's still another 2-3s to be had.

:o No matter how much I try I can't stop doing that!

Mine's still a largely lifeless barge but with a very mobile rear end. Loving the power-oversteer though.

Nice one Lee.

They are road legal and FIA approved - and for approx. £50 a corner, they're also a f****** bargain!

I fancy trying some of these out - but nowhere seems to have them in stock. The Colway office main number when I dial it no longer exists, and if I dial the fax number it just rings and rings. Have they gone bust?

Is that not why? Because you keep flooring it so you can hear it?

I love your links Mr s. Nice one.

My Omega costs me £70 a week. Thinking about it, that's ridiculous. What should I change it for? It's only worth £1,500 or so.

It seems they are. Genuine top speed seems to be around the 165mph mark.
