Nice one Dan. Bringing it to the airfield I hope?

Mine's the same; Supermarket slop 95 RON = lumpy a hell V-Power = lovely

Good read that :)

Evo ran a piece a while back comparing a Crescent Suzuki 1100 against a Lambo Mercialago (sp?) I think, around Silverstone. If I recall correctly, the bike whupped the Lambo's fat ass.

Decat. It was the last thing I did, and if I started over again, it would be the first mod without question.

Ridden properly? Shown up without question.

Fcuking hell, that's properly quick!

No thanks.

8 miles from home, I clicked over to 78,000.

...just what my 172 Cup is capable of. Stayed over at the NEC for the last two days as we were exhibiting, drove there and back in the Cup, 170 miles each way. A34 was a nightmare, two contra-flows, with 2-4 miles of queueing on each of them in both directions. Trip computer was reset...

That looks like an aluminium ITG Maxogen, nice. Should have made it out of carbon fibre ;)

Nice double de-clutching on the F40 vid. Sounds incredible...he was shortshifting most of the time too.

PM me fella - I live and breathe Excel, have done for years.

That works for me

...and whilst not wanting to state the obvious...it is a Cliosport session.

Generally accepted that they do nothing for your engine other than add noise, and in a lot of cases, you lose bhp. On a hot summers day it's even worse due to the heat soak apparently. I'm not talking from experience here though.

:cool:

Lovely. I've never seen on the road or in the flesh.

I still get that, always have, but I ALWAYS get much better mileage from V-power, and I'm talking an extra 5-7 mpg compared with supermarket toss.

Same here. The one and only time I went on track with a tankful of Tesco 99 slop, I ran out mid afternoon. Every other time on the same track with V-power liquid lovliness, I'd still have enough left to drive home at the end of the day.

Do cars have to be highly polished/detailed to be considered worthy?

12-16k including a few trackdays.

Did you try it with both sensors fitted? There's something about 172 Cups that means often the dash-light won't show even if both sensors are in. Mine's been fitted for almost a year now, well over 20,000 miles, and my light's never lit up :D

I respect the effort, dedication, and determination that went into creating something like that...but... For me I'd be far less embarrassed wearing this outfit and prancing around the local high street shouting in a shrill voice "Look at me! Look at me! Look at me!", than be seen...

Shhhhhhhhhh...you'll bring the entire anti-Cup brigade in. Got any trackdays planned/booked for it?

Back again? You know it makes sense ;) Looks good Aaron.

Where's this magical stretch of tarmac where mass does not affect a vehicles ability to accelerate then?

You are so wrong. You may drive along oblivious to what you can sense, but 89kgs less to me makes a huge difference, come road or track...and that's not me being a 172 Cup fanboy. Also, your comment about "me" not being able to afford a FF172 is laughable at best :D
