  1. Had plenty of tyre squeal and a cocked up heel and toe and locked the rears just as I turned in which gave off a nice squeal and bit of a slide right in front of a marshal's post... nothing said Keith - I would have applied but Woodbridge the day after and this would eat up valuable drinking time

    Interior door card scuffs

    Not a useful reply but be interested to see what others use, my door has plenty of scuffs on it as well

    Brecon Beacons - Sunday 31st May

    Basically what Rob said. Awesome day out and thanks for organising it. Don't want to look at my credit card statement with all the fuel stops the past few days
  4. Putting the clutch down when I got in my car this morning, I now have a bit of a squeak / grinding feel in the pedal. It only happens once the pedal is depressed further than the foot rest "pedal". I can't really feel it driving (definitely can't hear anything) and I'm pretty certain it's just the pedal. Something to be bothered about or just one of those things™?
  5. Popping down to see Rich in about an hour to see what he thinks, I'm assuming it's related to yesterday's visit to Oulton Park but I'd rather be safe for Blyton tomorrow

    Isn't there someone hunting wabbits?

    JapFest Accident?

    Quite the detective you are

    JapFest Accident?

    It's not Omer - plate doesn't match... looks to start with a W and ends in an E?

    Numberplate Legalities

    I had a look the other week about the legal requirements as I've been looking at new plates - there are a lot of people with non-strictly legal plates on the roads but the vast majority have the correct font / spacing etc. I doubt you'll get stopped for it if the font / spacing is correct. Even if you are stopped, you should be fine providing you don't get arsey with the cops... you see it all the time on cop shows, they stop someone for something simple with the intention of just having a word, the driver gets arsey and they then find themselves with a few fines for technicalities!

    Totally de-badged with something unique

    Look great Chris! Pete's definitely good at what he does!

    Speed detection defences

    Any camera that is rear facing (ie you need to past it first) - no one should get caught by these... Front facing ones? Look ahead on roads before speeding to make sure it's clear? Or as Lauren says, don't speed

    Does that include bonnet stripes?

    Brecon Beacons - Sunday 31st May

    Sounds good to me... just wanted to check a rough route and see the furthest I'd have to drive home but it's not that far really!

    Brecon Beacons - Sunday 31st May

    Was about to ask about the route but reading the post properly this time, we basically start and finish at the same point just south of the bridge?

    Smudge's UK Tour!

    I saw a Gallardo on the opposite side of the M6 the other day... looked so wrong to see one doing 50mph on it's own!
  16. Always in sport mode for me, it's the first thing I do after starting the engine. It bugs me if the 2 lights aren't on as I've got used to them being there now...

    South East Karting Event

    I think I can be persuaded to make the journey down...

    Interior parts

    Do you have a spare boot floor carpet (the board that goes on top of the polystyrene)? Could do with a spare one of those so I can cut mine up. Adam: I don't think it's the thing you're asking for, but if it is, you've obviously got first dibs

    Fast & Furious 7 Cinema Meet - 11/04/15

    It's just under 2 hours for me to get there so would prefer meeting a bit earlier for some food - I'm not fussy, so any of the places that are there are fine with me...

    Tools in the boot

    Is there not a screwdriver?

    Chrome Bulbs

    Spec K: If you've got x-tec T20s, are they not the ones I linked to further up in this thread? They've fit perfectly fine for me. My only issue is one of the side indicators went... hardly "long life" at ~9 months

    Robs S/C GT86 Project

    Like the front, but don't like how obvious it is where it's fitted... not sure if it's just the angle of pictures or because it's white or something else

    Fast & Furious 7 Cinema Meet - 11/04/15

    Has anything been decided regarding tickets or are we just getting them on the day?

    Fuel gauge

    I just fill it up when the light comes on. Only exception is if I know I'll need to fill up on my journey then I'll fill up as I leave and use the local shell garage, saves having to find a shell garage at some point on the journey.
