Totally agree mate. As mentioned, gloss or satin black would look better to break up the grey. Though I like it as is

I will try my best Talking of timing what is the transponder that I need to buy for circuits? I remember reading it ages ago in your blog but when I looked through them again last night I couldn't spot it I do remember you said they were expensive so just trying to budget for it now! Thanks

If he is going to race he will, you have to give the circuit your number for the timing to be done.
Silly boy.

Still better than £370 for a new one
Wish I could be at Bedford on Saturday but unfortunately busy, have a good time though as I'm sure you will
Yes thankfully, The car can tow 1800kg and the trailer with car and set of wheels on the rack is 1475kg Tows like a dream to be fair
As Tony say's for racing you need one as it's what records the lap times and puts them on the screens, I can use the data logger for my personal timing though when I'm not racing.
Some race series you can hire them from race control but I'm not sure for CSCC and also its easier to just fit and forget and then if I ever need to sell it then they have great residual value.Didn't think about that.lol. I guess I thought they supplied you with one
As Tony says it will go for at least £200 unfortunately, I had a look on completed items on eBay and the cheapest they have sold for is £260

Hi Mate, Just found another on Pistonheads http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3622753.htm been for sale for a while it says so he may do a deal also by the time an eBay one is won and then delivery I think this will work out cheaperWill it never end....

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He
CSCC do hire them out, but it used to be £25 per event. Soon adds up, thats why we bought one, and as you say, once fitted just forget it.
Just saw the link, £260 isn't bad to be fair.

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 have good residual so can always sell on if not needed and wouldn't loose much if any cash

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

I'd love an enclosed trailer, but what a price they are, but you just push the car out and you have an instant caravan to sleep in etc.
You looking forward to tomorrow James, should be a nice day.

Yes I can't wait Tony, just had a chat with Matt and everything sounds good with the car I will be there at 10.45-11 depending on traffic. Give me a call if you can't find us, Weather looks good also so with luck may have a dry day!
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 ideaI'd love an enclosed trailer, but what a price they are

I have an RS3 trailer and they are fantastic , its good if travelling miles to the venue as the car is nice and clean still , used open trailers in the past and it looks like the car has done a rally by the time you arrive !
Its also good to know the car is safe when staying overnight somewhere , its very handy for storage as well , as I have 2 rally cars , I keep one locked away in the trailer out of the way when the trailer is not being used

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He
yeah they are not cheap , just over £8k new now , but worth it , if you get one at the right money I don't think you would lose much on them when you come to sell it , I paid £4800 for mine and its mint , only a couple of years old , I'd expect to sell it for around that when the time comes , they just seem to hold there value

You certainly got a bargain though, I dont remember ever seeing an RS3 for less than 5.5-6k!
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 to change tow cars, buy a house with a bigger drive, do my trailer test and rob a bank
