It's seriously what people recommend mate :smile:

Sort of, haha. You have the number right but not the units.
1 degree is 60 minutes. The recommended toe out setting is about 10 minutes, which is 1/6th of a degree. 10 degrees would be silly :laughing:

TFTD2 - I am happy to organise, got a hectic few weeks ahead though with Tarty Days. Will bring the proper car this time, can't have you wrong wheel drive French shitboxes beating me again

dann2707 · Apr 21, 2015

Oh bloody hell haha my bad, apologies haha Yeah 10 minutes I meant

That'd be great Adam, i'd be interested in seeing if my times better with the mods. @debussetti will be cracking the 1min mark i'm sure

rainbird · Apr 21, 2015

How about a wrong wheel drive Spanish/German shitbox, Ads

Sub 60secs will be happening, bring it on!

AdamR · Apr 21, 2015

Sorry yes, I should just have said shitbox, wrong wheel drive is implied by that term

rainbird · Apr 21, 2015

Westy next time?

Wit the new suspension and track rubber I'd hope for a good 2-3 seconds

dann2707 · Apr 21, 2015

But think about the gainzzzzzz you'll have made since last time more weight = less speed rah rah

Yeah his service is second to none. So helpful through PM's too :smile:

Brakes aren't a problem at the time being, they seem too good atm and was nowhere near close to getting fade on that track day although I suppose I didn't generate that much speed!

i'm not sure what you mean?? haha Is this a reference to something i've missed? :tongueout:

Today @leeds2592 bobbed over to mine to have a ride in the car to see what the Bilsteins are like, great guy and was awesome to meet you man. We talked about car nipples. True story haha. Think i've fallen in love with Inferno orange too :smiley:

The background noises creaking or whate ver it is sounds like my dog barking. Sorry i didhave a few!

AS Ghandi once said "If you curb your wheels you must be a f**king idiot"

ROO#1 · Apr 22, 2015

Gutted for you mate.

JoeMarano · Apr 22, 2015

Ouch! Hence why I park a mile away from kerbs and never drive forwards into a space :d

Mr Plums · Apr 23, 2015

oooh you caught that mate.

I bet you could sand that back and spray it yourself so it looks good, you did them yourself originally didn't you?

JoeMarano · Apr 23, 2015

You could quite easily sand them back. Only problem is having to respray the whole wheel again.

Its probably easier just to spray the whole wheel again, turini time?

Scaramac · Apr 23, 2015

I can't see where you've hit it :fearscream:

leeds2592 · Apr 23, 2015

You said they needed doing again anyway

dann2707 · Apr 23, 2015

You should have seen how carefully I parked up at work today hahaha

What a nightmare! Turinis could definitely be on the cards

dann2707 · Apr 26, 2015

Hey. I've been wanting to drive on this road for so long now so today I decided to bite the bullet and go for a spin. Took a few pics (SO many pics of the same position from different angles oops hahaha)

Filled up with only the best from Shell

My impressions are: The road is decent don't get me wrong but i'd be disappointed coming from any further away. It's fun but I much preferred the B roads getting there! I think it's the whole, massive summit that kinda puts me off. But other than that I loved it and glad it's finally off the bucket list :smiley:

Mr Plums · Apr 26, 2015

Where is it mate?

Its looks lovely round there tbh.

TRH_Racing · Apr 26, 2015

Ill have to come up dan!

Matthew · Apr 26, 2015

Buttertubs?

If so, I agree in that the roads upto it (Ribblehead/Hawes etc) are better than the actual Buttertubs...

Brookie. · Apr 28, 2015

I drove past this yesterday parked up near Hyde Park. I couldn't see you in or near or would have stopped. @dann2707

Looked ace in person!

SparkyB · Apr 28, 2015

looking mint, love the spoiler. I've got one sitting at home just begging to be fitted!

It's decent mate! It's in the Yorkshire Dales, on the way to the lakes I guess

That's the one mate yeah. I discovered my love for third gear up in the high revs on those roads

Ooooooh spotted haha thanks mate! I'm always a bit weary of parking around there but it's cheap and us yorkshiremen know how we like a bargain haha. How come you were driving through?

Ace that you realised it was me though!

SparkyB said:

Cheers buddy

Take it to a reputable painter when you get it done as you may have seen the problems I encountered.

SparkyB · Apr 28, 2015

@dann2707 yup Im taking it to a proper spray shop when I get round to it!

Mr Plums · Apr 28, 2015

Dan do these spoilers fit well and look oem once fitted? I'm particular with this kind of thing, I need to see it in person as it does look good on your photos.

Haha I recognised it as soon as I saw it, especially with the spoiler! I don't live too far from there mate, only in Kirkstall. Had a day off so drove up to chill in the good weather!

It does fit fairly well. Good better on one side than the other though

personally if I was you I'd get the proper v6 spoiler as you're loaded haha

Brookie. · Apr 30, 2015

We should meet up for some photos now the weather is getting good!

Rather than spam this thread, someone set up a meet thread in the Yorkshire area. @Brookie.

leeds2592 · Apr 30, 2015

@brookie @Matthew @Nick_Leeds @MrTom Me too

dann2707 · Apr 30, 2015

:kissingheart: you all

My requests are that no one looks at the spoiler up close on top or that wheel at the front though.

Nick_Leeds · Apr 30, 2015

They always come up better in pics. I'll have to get the eastern euro lads at the garage to give it the once over before mind.

Jimbob 2705 · May 3, 2015

Just read this thread from scratch...and what a great read! :up:

Really tidy Arctic you've got there Dan, think it looks just about perfect! Only possible thing I would consider is changing to Turinis?

Luke... · May 3, 2015

yeah as above, hurry up and get some new wheels :wink:😂 Looking saweet tho mate

dann2707 · May 4, 2015
