Poor handling...LMFAO.

F*** me, you've come on loads since I last looked in here. That's stunning. Going to be an absolute monster.

I'd really properly f*** that Gallardo.

I've just re-done so the first link's dead; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8QHp4jt62k

Yeah, I know...I missed it...got carried away.

...but I finally made it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8QHp4jt62k Can I be in your club now Chris?

On this graph, the 2 lines were run 13 months and 24,000 miles apart, at 70k and 94k. The red curve was the latter. There's no power loss if serviced properly (ignore the torque/fuelling lines, they're not comparable)...

No offence intended but, go on, put one on and stick pictures up...we can all have a little chuckle.

ROFFLOL

Our Focus 1.6 has a really heavy flywheel, the rev decay or a downshift blip takes forever when changing gear. I think it's been given it as the 1.6 Zetec isn't particularly torquey. In my opinion the heavier flywheel doesn't affect the torque output of the engine in any way, shape, or form...

I'd say he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about, don't let him anywhere near your car.

I was glad I got mine back, and the plus point of getting it back, and not having to claim for it, is that I don't have a stolen vehicle recorded against my insurance history. If it drives the same, feels the same, and looks the same, what's the problem?

I don't get this much in my Cup, I think most of the local charvers have had a pop at some point or another and lost, badly. Had an episode in my Omega recently, late night drive home on a very quiet (as in you could only see 2 or 3 other cars) A27 dual carriageway. I was bimbling along with...

No thanks. Set fire to your money, it'll be quicker, easier, and more fun.

That's got to be an error, my Cup makes that with just a panel and decat! I know Jay (Burp) had a problem with his 172 running approx. 134 ATW, but that was traced back to the cambelt being a tooth or so out. I'm sure if Ben did it (changed/fitted a new one for you) it'll be spot...

Nice clip, looked like a lot of fun.

LOL No power steering, a tiny 300 mm polyurethane (plastic) steering wheel, and sweaty palms on track? I'd be a liability without gloves! Seeing as I need them on track I wear them all the time on road too, that way the car never 'feels' different between road/track.

Free.

I don't tend to do wheels, but it looks great on the latest set (non sparkly ones).

At least when mine was taken on 7 Jan this year, they broke in while we were out at work. Luckily it was found the next day, 1/3 mile away. All I had to do was change the locks...so it wasn't worth claiming on the insurance. The reason they took mine was for a quick getaway to wherever...

Nice one mr EG.

I would of told him they were, I thought they were. One of mine was not straight, so I straightened it by hand, it didn't feel bolted to anything.

Thanks. Question was intended for the OP...

What's your home setup like? Must be worth £10,000s?

Err, I was the one that was confused...in those videos the pads were PF97s...I was given them and told they were Carbon Lorraines...oops! I've got real CLs on now :approve: To answer the original question, if you need to use your car for an average amount of road miles, stick with Pagid...

There are no spring clips or shims to hold the pads in place in the calipers, they're a loose fit, clanking and rattling around in the caliper over every road bump. Until they get hot that is, then they expand, fill the caliper, and stop clanking. So while they're cold, and being use...

Same. CLs.

No matter how much I urge her to try it, my wife refuses point blank to drive my Cup now.

I like that. Functional.
