Right. Seems no one is organizing anything so anyone heading to FCS Saturday morning? I'm going to be at magor services along with Sean and maybe Craig if he's allowed at 7am. ( could change to coldra, junction before as that's where mcd's is lol ) for 7am.

Anyone going... ? Or if there is already arrangements, spill...

 

[Matt W]

I haven't organised anything because i'm not available to attend this year unfortunately.

 

[Bug]

I wish I was going just cant afford it this year
Might make CCS though

 

[SharkyUK]

Sorry dude - I'm at Oulton Park this weekend for the BTCC. Have a good one.

 

[Ash']

Really not sure at the moment chap. Got a lot of stuff going on that needs sorting.
On top of that I haven't even seen my car for the last week as it's been having more money thrown at it.

[Bug]

I dunno if I'll be attending now, got alot on trying to keep my job secure, my grandad is in hospital atm aswel things just arent going my way this year
I am supposed to be going edition 38 this year which is the last weekend of august so doing two events in one month will be too expensive for me

 

[tonyd106]

I want to attend but meant to be saving for wedding and holiday

 

[Cooperate]

Bug that sucks :/ hope your grandad gets well soon

Hi mate,

CSS wasn't too bad at all. First time I've been. I'm not too keen on Billing Aquadrome as a venue... but it was great to see so many people and to chat. The Trophy got a lot of attention. Talking of which... it's kinda up and running. I've had lots of niggles with it recently and I lost third gear (again) tonight on the way home from work. I've got to take it back to the workshop to get it sorted

How's you and the Focus?

 

[Hodgins]

I loved css at gaydon to be fair, but havent made it since, ill have to take the billabong lol

fair play to sticking with it mate. I would have lost the hear and patience and stripped it for bits but im sure itll be worth it in tbe end.

Alls good with me

focus is good, not been using it much last few weeks, i put a new manifold on it, the head studs were on backorder for a week lol so has stayed in the garage mainly

contemplating getting a map on it if only a temporary one to get it running a little better

 

[M4D M4X]

Hey happing guys.
Ain't posted in this section for a while so how's everyone?.

Was wondering has anybody had any experience with RStuners at all?
Im after someone to do a map on my car i'll be selling, it's been mapped with cams but they've now been taken out and need the ecu to go back on a standard or 98ron map so was advised that maybe a RStuner would be the best option.

So does anybody have one and is available to do a map (don't know anything about them) so i'd pay you for your services and anything that is needed to do the job.

Thanks

 

[SharkyUK]

Glad to hear all is well Hodgins - hopefully catch up with you sometime soon mate.
M4D M4X - sorry mate, I don't know anyone personally who has an RS Tuner. There is always Dan@SJM who might be able to help you out with the map.

 

[Dan@SJM]

I can do a generic map for you.

 

[M4D M4X]

Thanks sharky for the suggestion .

I can do a generic map for you.

Hi dan great, have used you before and was very pleased with the work. As soon as i've got the other bits sorted on the car i'll drop you a PM or ring you and arrange a date and time to bring it to you. Cheers mate.

Sad day last weekend.....after 3 years and 45k i drove the Clio for the last time, for now i will be at the back on drives with the Civic and the Focus. Happy to know a little will live on in Wales with Filters taking some carbon parts and a bonnet off my hands. Gone and got a family (ish) bus for now but know the Clio bug is still there. (off to look for a 200)

Sorry mate but you're not welcome anymore... LOL! To be honest, I don't think it really matters what you're driving.

 

[tonyd106]

Wow it's lively on here these days, it's been a while since I've been on but doesn't look like I've missed much :smile:

How is everyone?
