What you really need to worry about is the bogeyman hiding under your bed! :lol:

Welcome to The Land of Zed.

One of the best recent Ferrari's, and will be a true classic in the future. Good write up, can you remember who your instructor was ?.

There you go "photo or it didn't happen".. :thumbs:

Great Racing again today. Not to be missed. :thumbs:

But surely if she was doing 38 then they would do her for 32 taking into account the allowance, is that how it works. ? If not then I'll kick my mate Trev's ass for telling me porkies, as he was supposed to be on the same speed awareness course with her.

Welcome to The Land of Zed.

Normally we put 20mm on front and 25mm spacers on the rear and that fills the standard arches with Rays... How big are you going that you need to roll the arches..!!

Buy both :thumbs:

A different car Rustie, great job keep it up. :thumbs:

Try the Zed Shed. on here ?.

May need a bit more info ...

Here's the new law proposed for next year. :scare: New speeding laws could mean a ban at just 32mph A stunning 'zero tolerance' policy on speeding was unveiled last night. The dramatic crackdown could see bans for drivers who never exceed limits by more than 2mph. To the horror of motoring organisations, Home Office Minister Bob Ainsworth said he wants to press ahead with a major revision of the tottingup procedure. It could mean disqualification for being caught going just one mile an hour too fast on three occasions, 6mph too fast twice, or 16mph over the limit once. The 'margin for error' in current police guidelines, to allow for inaccurate speedometers, would be scrapped. The draconian plan was buried in a Home Office statement about longer jail sentences for drivers who kill. Ministers are braced for a massive backlash and have promised to consult further over the details. But campaign groups said tinkering with limits and fines would still leave a totally unacceptable scheme. 'This is completely the wrong approach - that if you stick to a number on the speedometer you are safe and if you go one mile over it you are a killer,' said Mark McArthur-Christie of the Association of British Drivers. Kevin Delaney, of the RAC Foundation, said: 'These plans will lead to more people watching their speedometers instead of the road, and that will not increase safety.' Critics pointed out that Britain already has the safest roads in Europe, even though the average speed on motorways is estimated at 85mph. They said the plan would be another hammer blow for motorists already struggling to cope with thousands more speed cameras, soaring company car taxation, high fuel prices and the prospect of tolls to drive into London and other cities. Under current laws, most drivers caught speeding get a £60 fixed-penalty ticket and three points on their licence. Anyone reaching 12 points - or exceeding any limit by 30mph - can be banned for a period fixed by magistrates. Police also generally overlook speeds below a level of the limit plus 10 per cent plus 2mph. That equates to 35mph in a 30 zone and 79mph on a motorway. Under the new rules, the points limit will be 20, but more points will be imposed for each offence and the speeds involved will be far lower. There would also be a new £90 fine for faster drivers. The Home Office wants the scheme phased in over two years. Mr Ainsworth presented the crackdown as part of a wider blitz on danger drivers. The other measures include: An increase in the maximum jail term for causing death by dangerous driving from 10 to 14 years; Bigger fines for using a mobile phone while driving - under the existing law about proper control of a vehicle; Tough, flexible community penalties' for some motorists convicted of speeding, careless or uninsured driving; Possible higher penalties for drink-drive motorists caught with double the alcohol limit; A 'weekend disqualification' system to let drivers use their cars for work. Mr Ainsworth said: 'The message is clear - dangerous driving kills and those found guilty can expect to be severely punished. We are not interested in penalising the law-abiding motorists, the vast majority of drivers. The measures will affect only those who commit offences.'

So she would need to be doing 38 to be prosecuted at 32..!!

Yes I'm sure they had already applied that calculation and the answer was 32..!!

A friend of mine was on a speed awareness course recently, also on there was a 72 year old lady who was out shopping, never had a conviction in 40 years but was done for 32 in a 30 limit..!!! WTF..!!!

I think they are governed to 150 MPH, have a look at my previous thread on Formula E sure I gave the full spec on them.

I have to play Russian Roulette with up to 20 to 30 speed cameras a day in London. Touch wood, none have caught me yet..!! . I use the digital display right in front of me for the speedometer as I find looking at the analogue speedo in traffic is difficult to get an accurate reading

Well done with the sale. Shame the new owner wont be joining us.

There is a thread on here about the same problem a few months ago, Use Search or Mr Google and you will find it.

Sounds like it needs a P3 Dicky..
