    Draft from driver footwell

    On mine if you looked under the dash on the drivers side there was an open slot about 2 inch by 4 inch. I presumed that it should have had a cover if some kind (I never got round to fixing it). I first noticed it on mine when I drove to Newquay, I set off at midnight and was wearing shorts and...

    GT3 RS 4.0 + angle

    I've always wondered what expenses they can claim back, for example tyre's after your cars been used on a feature track day or an article where you've drifted round the same corner 20 times for the photographer

    GT3 RS 4.0 + angle

    as said before, a couple of months ago there was a breakdown in Evo of what deposit he'd paid and what the monthly figures were (and the final ballooooon payment). That write up did lead you to believe it is his car, I don't know what he claims (or claimed) back off Evo.

    Lane discipline, lack of...

    I take this approach, I'm always surprise how many times I can predict what someone's going to do before they do it. Then if they nearly crash into me and I press the horn the clueless look they give does wind me up. Too many people don't take any pride in how they drive. I agree bad driving...

    What's your idea of a good mod/theme.

    for a daily driver mine would be standard bodywork decent size wheels - prefer OEM looking wheels. good stance - not too low though. OEM looking replacement front seats rest of mods being mechanical... for a sunday best car (showing off car) or track car it would be different.
