Me too! Great result with qualifying :)! I got all confused when I saw the time sheet and though that was the race result :( Hope you and the car are okay!
Glad to hear it went well Mark :) That sounds like a great time to me! I couldn't believe the other day that the the clio cup boys were doing 52.055's it's incredible to think how they can make up so much time just on slicks! Best of luck today I really hope it goes well for you and I can't wait...

I can't say I have really but I just think in the event of ever having to claim that they wouldn't pay out anyway due to it having a dodgy MOT so thought it wasn't worth the risk :(
Not going for a livery as...

Haha sounds like a plan Mark :cool: I will be expecting a rear window though even if you only win a few hundred grand ;)
Yeah its true but I was thinking today while driving that I really want a fun car for...

Haha good luck :)! I'll hold you to that but what about our Porsche/Ferrari challenge car we discussed :rasp:

Good stuff Mark :) Haha tell me about it but without it we wouldn't have any money to play in the first place :dapprove:

Yes it seems so :) it was just for the cost I could do another few test days or another race so for me it didn't really add up unfortunately. My other half lives next door to an old airfield that they use for...
I would suggest going to Sprayshack, you can post everything to them, they will spray it to match the car and then post it back. It is a great service and Simon does a great job :)

Yes it just was stacking up to be a very expensive way to scrub tyres in and check bit's and bob's I also realised that I live on a private road and don't need to have a road legal car to be able to go up and...
Great read mate :) There really is something addictive about these cars I don't know what it is but you can never leave them for long!
I have got so much love for your car! It looks f**king EPIC :cool: I can't wait to see it at TDF

Decision was made today for the car to loose it's road going status, The MOT is due on Wednesday and although I could probably could get it passed then it's not a great idea as it doesn't have reverse light...
Our's was supposed to arrive by a certain date and after that date I just got them to give us another car until ours arrived so just push them to do the same if you need to. I just said I had an agreed buyer for the old car and they had no choice and they gave us an A5 3.0 TDI for 10 days.

Perfect Mark, I will finally get to meet you and have a look around your car properly :) My plan is to get there early and hopefully get a garage as I haven't reserved one
Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He
That does look very nice and Black is definitely what i'm leaning towards :)
Your car looks awesome in that photo :cool:

Mini Update:
Just booked a hotel for the night before Brands and I'm collecting the car from TDF on the Monday afternoon en-route to Brands for the Tuesday morning. Confirmed with my instructor for that day...
Haha that looks awesome Neil :) I wonder how light you could get it if you go to town on it! I think this swaging is infectious I want to attack mine lol
Re: A few new additions to Trophy 147/500 - RS2 Fitted
Well it certainly looks the part and the wheels look much better on your car than they did on mine! No worries mate you've got my number so just give me a call or text anytime if I can ever be of any assistance :)!
Re: A few new additions to Trophy 147/500 - RS2 Fitted
Wow didn't see this thread until now but can't believe how much its changed since I saw it :) Love everything you have done to it James! Hopefully see it again at some point
Yeah I think so mate it's just a sleeve to join a cut pipe together :) I think I have a photo on my home computer so I will put it up if I find it later! I've got a meeting till about 5.30ish in Nottingham and then will head back so probably be about 6.30ish if thats okay?
If you struggle to find one locally then drop me a message for some reason I found the one from my stock 182 exhaust in the boot of my daily lol! I'm working in Nottingham until Thursday so could always meet Thursday evening at the M1 if you still haven't got one by then :) I think on my parts...
If worse comes to the worst and you can't get hold of any could you not drill out the allen key grub screw and then retap the hole for a bigger one? Maybe an option if you struggle and would be cheaper :)
