Nice :) I love the panoramic shots.

I was running soft track tyres...expected them to get cut to shreds. Nothing... it looks and sounds worse than it is.

*** runs outside to check *** Phew!

...almost. Some went early, one got left behind, one bugged out halfway, but you get the idea... Click me I don't blame whoever it was that bugged out though, as this is what it was like when I followed dan and matteh in their valvers... F*** me My windscreen now sports 3 fresh chips...

I think you should give it up Paul to be honest :rasp:

Video up soon :) Excellent pics, lots of three-wheel action :approve:

I thought the 197 was very good on track - just felt as if it lacked a bit of grunt/poke. I want to know if the improved chassis helps overcome that feeling.

On those wheels... Does the webbing (more surface area) help keep things cool? Or does it suffocate (less airflow) the brakes?

Ha ha ha... What was the "flannel" for? In case she enjoyed it too much, or was too scared?

Nice pics, looks like a good evening was had. Anyone comment on how the R27 compares to a standard 197?

And beer.

It can. It does. I love sarcasm.

Take the big V off the grille? Without that I think they look stunning.

I reckon that would do 180 easy, don't know why everyone has a problem grasping that. Do the Lexus lights come as standard?

Mine has, it resonates at 3k rpm, sounds quite nice when it does though.

Too clean, too low. It'll do though ;)

Sound good don't they :approve: Decat too? Makes it even better.

No comment.

Vital. I've lost three now on trackdays...and at over £50 a pop it soon adds up.

But sadly, not much lighter.

Who cares about roll so long as it still grips like a limpet and gets you round? I like roll, it's the car talking to you, letting you know what's going on :approve: I'd be nervous as f*** in something setup rock hard with less obvious signs of impending disaster.

Have you taken it on track yet? Good brakes and tyres, which is what you've done, give the biggest gains for the least expense. That's all I've ever done. Standard suspension is fine...try it as it is...if you find it lacking, change it.

Ha ha ha, what a muppet! Great pictures fella, last one is so appropriate :D

To be honest I think you'd be hard pushed to tell the difference between any of them. I run that size as the rubber is cheap and plentiful...no other reason.

I've run 205/50/15 on track for the last 3 years, no problems at all, and a good choice of rubber.

I had the bracket on the centre section of mine peel away. They just sent me a brand new section, no problems at all.

Had just started to spot with rain, probably why he was so cautious in his brand new Ultima. Yep, totally 100% standard. Played with the brakes though, and I was on track rubber. A nice bloke who mailed me a DVD of his footage, never met him before, his VTS was stripped right out

Probably...he also had a shocking lack of ability though. Three times his back end stepped out on that lap when he floored it out of the tighter turns, had no confidence at all.

As above, nice, very nice, very very nice. I can't wait for my mortgage to be gone so I can do something like this.
