    Britcar 500 Race Report

    It varies wildly depending on how competitive you wish to be. For example, at this race a pretty standard Honda Prelude competed. The entry fee was £4.5k, but i doubt he paid much on top of that. We on the other hand, had a motorhome and a full race team. If we didn't know Rob and James, they...

    Thanks Jon. Yeah, it will be slower for sure. Over the winter it should, in theory, develop into a faster car though.

    High mileage trophy

    Those miles are hardly 5 up though, i imagine the passenger and rear seats have similar wear to any other Trophy. The wheels, rear spoiler etc. have value in them.

    Time for Renaultsport 'only' dealers?

    They just don't sell enough. It's a shame, but out of all hot hatches the Clio must be nearly at the bottom of the sales range. I see far more Civic Type Rs, Leons etc.

    Britcar 500 Race Report

    Just contact a team for experience, probably quite easy! One of our guys is only 14, he just does the easy stuff no one else wants to do. Another guy started out as a boat builder and is now one of the best guys in the team because he can adapt well.

    Britcar 500 Race Report

    The Britcar 500 is a 6 hour version of the 24 hour race you may have seen on Top Gear. With the Elise's previous fragility, it was never really on the cards, but with our main competitors not attending, it provided a chance for us to go for a win in their absence. I've never raced on the...

    Z4MC Pics

    Copied and pasted off bent detailing forum much... Nice ride, didn't realise you had got the CSL wheels. Much better! I've seen a few new Z4s on the road now and really like them, shame there is no M model.

    Satin Black NSX (56k Killer)

    Yeah, basically that is because it was a rush job. Once it has its race in November, it will be go back down to a shell and built up again. It will be getting a new gearbox, engine and some aero changes.
