Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He No worries Mark, I didn't actually like it myself when it was suggested to me but it has slightly grown on me :) I was trying to avoid putting my name into it but thanks for the suggestion!

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He What does everyone think to the team name of 'J-Force Racing' I really am not too sure what to call it but this seems to be popular amongst people I have spoken to over the last few days? If not then please...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Thanks Colin, Really appreciate it :)! Haha I've got to be up at 7 :p

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Thats a very kind offer thanks Colin, I am swaying more towards the option of just drive on the day and I will split the driving with my friend who is coming (I think you met him at Harewood) :) I just can't...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He It will be good to see you again Colin! Would also be good to see the clio although I'm sure I will see it during the year if not at Anglesey. Well my plans aren't set in stone yet, I am working Friday...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Ahh sounds good Colin, I bet you can't! Haha sounds good :) Still got a couple of little finishes to do on it but we have finalised the concept so all is good :) It's mainly now just the very few finishing...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I have just dropped Matt an email saying that I am free to collect it on Thursday the 8th so hopefully then :) Haha as always ;) I am trying to get through the video's and data from Bruntingthorpe! When are...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Sorry Neil totally forgot :( I promise I will sort some out before Anglesey which will be the next time i'm with the car! It is a solid sheet of alloy that is water-jetted to fit the footwell and has about 6...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He As Kenny says Jonny, thats the MAM (max authorised mass) of my car, kerb weight is 1600kg :) Yes Kenny all the big makes seem pretty to good to me when I looked around at them, I chose this one as it had good...

Haha Thommo is a legend! Really surprised me when they just moved out of the way because all the Porsche and Ferrari boys were just weaving in front of us and we had to lift off and wait but he was a proper gent!

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Yes unfortunately so :(

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He What is the gross weight of the car mate? I think my kerb weight is 1600kg so your car is a fair bit heavier. For it to work your gross weight would have to be 2100kg or less and then you wouldn't be able to...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Ahh no worries mate :) I meant boring for you listening not me lol ;) Basically you take the gross weight of the car (The max allowable weight) My car is 2005KG, then the total weight of trailer and...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Yes mate you can tow it on a post 1997 licence, it all depends on the weight of the tow car, car to be towed and trailer weight though. I can explain it if you need but it can be abit boring ;) Thank you...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Its a Brian James Clubman 1.85M wide by 4M long, I couldn't recommend it enough! Mine is plated to 1495 so I am allowed 1045KG's load which is just enough for the car with a full tank both seats and some...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Yes Ian I remember seeing yours on the thread! The piece of mind while staying overnight was the main attraction for me and also as you say the other benefits are great. The problem for me was I would of had...

Gone through all of this myself and still not sure what to do myself! I think once I take the winters off I will buy a set of 18's instead of 19's and then chuck a set of Dunlop/Michelin non run flats on! I must say by reducing the car onto 17's for the winter tyres the car is totally...

Haha, I always go with the same plan and then totally forget to take any lol ;)

Very nice, I recognise the location aswell :) Will keep my eyes peeled for the cars in the area!

Yes I think it sounds like pre season is going quite well for them and they certainly seem to be putting the miles on it! 3 test days already this week for them! Whoever was driving the other day was a gent as he kept well out of the way on his warm up laps etc! They were much more considerate...

Thanks for that Colin it certainly shows it clearer than my photo ;) Course I don't mind! :)

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Yes I would love one also Tony they are awesome, I just think I would sleep better at night in a hotel knowing that the car isn't just on the back of an open trailer! I've never thought of the caravan idea ;)...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Yeah the RS2's are about 350-400KG's heavier I think off the top of my head, all to do with the weight of the clamshell! My car unfortunately couldn't tow an enclosed trailer :(

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Exactly Tony, In my eyes its like hiring out the trailer by the time I would of done two seasons then I would of payed for the trailer yet have nothing to show and its exactly the same with this! Both will...
