He he he, I love having someone right up my a***, the closer the better, makes me focus as the slightest mistake will give away a 1/10th here and there. That Megane was insane/mental/nuts. Wish I'd seen him out earlier as I'd have hunted him down to blag a ride.

Where did that come from? Have I upset or offended you in some way?

Age has very little to do with it. I've followed cars that you'd probably swear were being driven by an octegenarian, then when I finally get past, it's some youngster with their face against the windscreen not having even the slightest clue what the f*** they should be doing - so unaware of...

Looks nice Steve. That passenger ride at Brands with you helped a lot...I'll be going for the smallest thinnest lightest seats possible.

I've always run without aids and with a manualk 'box since I started on GT3. The fact that they've engineered slip angles into the physics engine of FM2 makes me hard - and any kind of ESP is likely to blunt what you could ultimately get out of a smoothly driven and balanced lap. I will...

Not funny.

I've had 11 before, around Goodwood, on Tesco 99 slop. 14's more normal on V-Power though. Never had it lower on any other circuit...probably 'cause I love Goodwood and it's all flat to me :approve:

True - top fagness award ;) Cage looks good, can't wait until mine starts taking shape next year. You've got a peach of an engine too, sounded lovely at SRR.

I've got space in our lounge for one of these permanently, just got to convince the wife it's a good idea now. Lee, got to do it fella.

Enjoyable day, I'd love 4 hard laps in an Exige. Fred - that car is soooooo you LOL ;)

Tease :(

85+ on mine now, and has never given even a hint of slip.

I thought I was doing OK until a 230 driven by the Renaultsport Megane chassis engineer went past me like I was stood still :eek: Lot's of cars seen on this one - everyone was out in the dry, including a racing blue 197 and liquid yellow R27. Not sure who the black 182 was, quick though...

Ph-155?

From the last Renault trackday. Not sure who this was, think it might have been 7 MAT. I got away, then promptly lost it. Clicky Tut tut.

For me it was my wife, my Mondeo V6, and Evo magazine. She bought me a trackday voucher, the 18 inch rubber on the Mondeo would cost a fortune, and Evo mag said the Cup could take track abuse all day long. Smiled every day since. They got it so right.

Ouch. Bugger. Sorry to hear that.

Dunlop D01J fitted in that picture. Had the Yoko A032 back on those rims for Brands, though they didn't get too much use in the p***ing rain :( . K-tec stealth's need a decat to sound their best.

It's that high as Mike at Rentech fitted it for me, and he took his time and cared enough to make sure it was exactly where it should be :approve: But I think mine is probably a MK1. Do they really hang that differently?

Nice one Chris, fasntastic. Will look through them all over the weekend.

Yup, too low. Here's mine (properly fitted) for comparison;

Didn't see you all day Chris...glad you were there though. Great pics as usual. LMAO at the cone.

The mods I've done, and the order I've done them in; 1st - ITG panel filter - £47 2nd - R-Sport ECU - £250 3rd - K-Tec Stealth exahust - £265 4th - Decat - £100 If I was starting again, decat would be my first mod. Without question.

Didn't notice to be honest. It's got something no Clio (V6 excepted) has, and it's got it by the bucket load... Road presence...I was actually gawping at it - and I don't tend to get firm on the strength of good looking motors. Forget the S3 Roy - far too predictable/boring/pipe+slippers...

Mine's on 85k as of today, registered November 2003. 100k by the end of the year, then will be retired for trackdays/racing duties only.

That is exactly what I want to do. Screw the passenger, they can just hold the f**k on LOL

LOL He's found a car he thinks he wants Ali...that is until it's been delivered, and we see pics of the Roy-mobile running on its 19s with its footwell lighting... :rasp:

On a positive note Roy, I saw my first new Type-R on the road today, silver one. Looked wild. Red one will be stunning :approve:

I think this plays well. If you approach it as you would a real race track, searching out the right line, being ultra smooth with the controls, it works and works well. Being cack-handed, makes you spin off or scrub the tyres...just like reality. Very good in my opinion. 550? I had one...

Mine's standard, always has been...that one is not standard, not a chance. Looks lovely fella...a nice low miler.
