  5. Do you know what a 350Z / 370Z looks like...!!! If you see them everywhere, and I live in London and see very few and I drive around Town most days and probably see a few thousand cars a day. Maybe I'm not observant enough or your confusing the Zed shape with something else...Just saying.. :scare:
  6. Go to CS a trader on her for the best prices on a system.
  7. Car pulled into his lane though. No he didn't, the car was pulling into the fast lane, the bike undertook the camera car at speed and hit the indicating/lane switching car. Bikes fault, riding like a dick. Yes' your right , forgot they have the handlebars on the other side there... :scare:
  8. So sorry to hear that Matt, there are some "scrotes" about mate. Hope it polishes out without to much trouble. :rant:
  9. BTCC KNOCKHILL THIS BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND.. Aiden Moffat is one of four drivers who calls Knockhill his home circuit, and adding to the usual homecoming celebrations the 17-year-old will also be taking part in the unique Forth Road Bridge crossing on Thursday 21st August. Aiden will join fellow BTCC stars – Gordon Shedden, Dave Newsham and Glynn Geddie – as well as a selection of six iconic Jim Clark cars at the Forth Road Bridge crossing that will mark both the start of the Bridge’s 50th Anniversary celebrations, and the 50th Anniversary of Jim Clark’s famous BTCC title win of 1964. A title Jim won whilst he was the reigning Formula One World Champion. Moffat made BTCC history a year ago at the Fife venue, becoming the youngest ever driver to race in the series. Speaking to Knockhill circuit earlier this week, he said: “With the Bridge crossing, Jim Clark tribute and the Circuit celebrating their own 40th Anniversary, the Knockhill round is going to be a massive weekend for me. I’ve been across the Forth Bridge so many times before, but this is one journey that will certainly be one I’ll never forget…â€
  10. I sent the clip to Sky News and they have just shown it. !!!.
  11. Car pulled into his lane though.
  12. This has to be the luckiest person on the planet. :scare:
  13. Very sad to see your Zed in that state, so glad your wife was OK. Hope you get it sorted with your insurance to your satisfaction.
  14. Maldonado brings $26,000,000 a year to crash cars. More money than talent, so he goes to a team that needs money. Max Verstappen has talent and not a lot of money, so he goes to Red Bull Junior who need top drivers.
  15. Great looking exhaust,

  18. Welcome to The Land of Zed.
  19. Welcome to The Forum.
  20. One joined recently.
  21. Dont use 2.7k rpm when cold..!! Could be something vibrating like a heat shield at that frequency..
  22. I stick a note in my phone when I see one in London. not seen one since 23rd July, and I'm out and about most days in the Zed. As rare as rocking "horse poo" in Town...
  23. Red Bull wont match Alonso's pay at Ferrari, so why should he move. I personally think Alonso will see his F1 days out with Ferrari..
  24. Max was offered to join two top Teams, Mercedes and Red Bull Junior, I know its difficult, as new drivers don't have any testing time any more, you learn your race craft in the heat of battle so there is nowhere to hide...
