back from GDI...

[Ali]

It's because you're all lazy b*****ds living in a valley! If you go anywhere, you have toclimb 20 miles up a f**king mountain

In fairness though, I'd rather live there than Ingerland....

*Hides*

Whys that then matey??

The mountains should make us fit and healthy...But with the work shy cu nts we have up here they all roll about watching their 40in plasma's wi a finger up there chuff's!

lol @ some women. Bex or taylor? Or the jesus?

 

[JoelDee]

Cooool

 

[philthy]

well, im back from the 'ring around 1500 miles travelled in 3 days

Performed pretty well, got aorund 35-36mpg on the way down, about 3 mpg on the ring lol, managed a 9min 15sec lap (thrid time round) when it was dry.
the engine never missed a beat, the power steering on the other hand has been leaking since sunday and is now almost dry, next job is to figure out where its leaking from and why.

oh and the driver lock has stopped locking by remote...

all in all a great weekend

 

[TheJesus]

good time that Phil, glad you enjoyed it, still need to take mine there. Mehdi managed a 9 minute dead in mine the other year on his 3rd lap and didn't bother doing anymore than that, but doubt I'll get anything like lol.

[Alan]

Good time you got matey, well done...

 

[Timmay]

not bad time at all

 

[jon_r]

Please don't go chasing times guy's, thats when the armco bills get to expensive.

 

[Tom]

Mr Richardson speaks the truth.

We are all faster than you GDI boys anyway and thats 50bhp down.

What Jon said.

Timing or filming causes spinnage, I found that out.

Comes as no real surprise when you go once or twice a year, this was a 9 minute dead after 3 laps having never done it before... that's pretty good even if it is 217bhp (at the time).

Will be going next year hopefully, wont even attempt to beat one of your times, but I think it's fair to say that if I handed you the keys to mine you'd be knocking a lot of time off per lap.

only up the hill really. extra negative camber will gain more time

I'd be dead by Armberg in yours. Barely got used to the 182.

yeah, but you'd be on for a better lap time up until that point Tom! lol

 

[Ali]

Whats a good time round the ring??

 

[TheJesus]

mid 6's... or you mean in a Clio? lol

 

[Ali]

mid 6's... or you mean in a Clio? lol

lol, the latter. I'm aimin for early 9's.

 

[TheJesus]

9's in the Vee? Woulda thought that was more 10's... stripped tranny van pace

iirc a Clio is capable of a mid(ish) 8, sure some of the Ring warriors will confirm.

 

[philthy]

I wasnt trying for my best time, I've seen what happens when its pushed too far.

Still its not bad for 2 people in the car and nothing stripped out.

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

early 9's is good imo. it's not really worth bragging about it in a clio unless it's fully track ready and you can drive jon_r, you might aswell wait until you're in a better car when things get more serious. especially when the locals pass you in old polo's (the really old ones) and make it look like childs play.

a lot of time can be gained up kesselchen, funny seeing the gt3 rs's doing 140 or so passed you.

for me it's not about times, it's about the fun. but we're all different, hence me not being that quick. it's taken all my laps to get close to 9.

 

[philthy]

twas much fun indeed, esp in the pissing rain... 4 wheel slides

 

[TheJesus]

this is it, some people get WAAAAY too competative, but tbh it doesn't bother me that someone's quicker, as it's about having fun like you say. Glad you enjoyed it Phil, wish I could have afforded to go, but I'll leave it until easter, house move is killing me...

 

[Ali]

The ring is only the 1st part of our raod trip...Got Spa, the alps, italy and then spain to do...

Good to hear all went well phil!! You still firing over on friday?

 

[philthy]

[jon_r]

Nurburgring...

Amsterdam/Rotterdam...
