I've been running a Netgear 824 for the last 24 months - has worked fine for both old and new Xboxes.

Probably be a crap video...what with those awful tyres on...you must have been spinning at every corner... ;) I'll have look at it tonight.

More than enough I'd have thought :)

My Cup also came with a rear-view mirror full of FF172's. ***runs***

LOL ^^^ Gonna be a mini meet at this rate.

Instead of focussing on brake lights, try seeing if you can notice the car in-front getting bigger. That tends to mean it's getting closer and therefore going slower than you ;) - time for brakes. I'd be very surprised if from what you said you could argue successfully he contributed to the...

Is there anyway you could drop a shorter 5th gear in? I could get a lot more out of mine on track if it actually pulled in 5th but as standard it's way too long.

Welcome :) There's a few of us at Brands on Sat 18th Feb...drag yourself there and say Hi.

Is this for maintenance or a ratio change Fred?

The rears hardly do any work at all so it's not needed. I've got the above kit fitted too, and it takes all the punishment a long hard trackday can give it with no problems.

That's excatly what I thought (almost word for word) 2 years, 52k miles, and a dozen trackdays ago. Get it on track, find out what they're really capable of, and the fun NEVER ends :D As said before though, disrespect them and they can turn round and smack you before you know it (as I...

35 over here. As for the image conscious tossers at your work...don't give them the satisfaction of thinking that their opinion matters to you. The ONLY thing that matters is how it drives, and in a 172 Cup (with few exceptions) you'd "own" them all day long :D

Oh, and err, welcome :D

'tis normal - get used to it - you'll never know it's there after a while :evil:

On a 1.6 tested in Evo, they claimed it was around 130kgs heavier than a 1.6 MkII. No idea what that'll translate to in the RS though.

They're like that on the road - I've just been for a drive as hard as conditions allow, and I've still got clear rings of rust around one disc. On track they start to make sense set up as they are as they'd be locking all the time if they did much more work.

That's what I'm running - and after a hard day caning round Goodwood they were fine. I've had nothing but good service from Yoz, and delivery times have always been 1-2 days. And I'm running Castrol Super Response DOT 4.

I've had one fitted from 2.5k (now on 51k) and agree with what ^^^ edde said. Extra revs help on track, and I've definitely not suffered any worse mpg. Took about 2hrs to fit as a complete novice.

It happened to Evo mag too when they were testing the V6 I think...they stopped to move some cones for a test, and couldn't get back in. Bent coathanger is what they used.

You've had a worse time than most then...;)

My 172 Cup was 2yrs old on 28 November. After 51k, I've had two starter-motors, three wiring looms, and a lot of love from Mike @ Rentech :D No rattles, and no problems with anything else...apart from the fact that a quick trip to the local shops for milk often turns out taking 90mins and...

The Continental SportContact fitted as standard to 172's and 172 Cup's are not directional...they have a specified outside edge...and perform more than well enough for a spare wheel/

Keep piling the miles on and when you reach 50k+ you'll be permanently smiling. Welcome aboard.

They used to be something mad like £0.98p + VAT...now they're £10+! I'm glad I got a spare off Mike when he had a few extras lying around.

If you end up going for a headrest mounted one, try knocking one up yourself. Daipac made this one for me...but anyone with an ounce of common sense should be able to throw one together. This one's survived 2 years, 50k miles, and about 15 track outings...and it's nothing more than...

Nice...how much weight saving over standard?

A032's Ben. Aaron - I'm working on it - the first tape I used is a bit corrupted, but there's some useful footage to pull off. could have got a lot more if they didn't stop us from "racing" PMSLOL

Home made (by Daipac) - two bits of wood, a couple of bolts/wingnuts, bicycle innertube for grip around the headrest struts, and a generic camcorder ball/socket mount botled to the end.

I love Jon_r :rasp:

He was hard work but I got him back on the brakes in the end - he had fairly good lines, but held me back through the section I spun out on earlier in the day - timed at about 1:40:5 - 111S - 14mb No other cars in this one, but it was my best flying lap timed at 1:37:6 - best lap - 13mb - no...
