  1. Totally understandable G, but this is about new people knowingly moving within close proximity of an existing motorsport venue, then trying to re-write local legislaton more aggresively against venues which have been in place before they arrived. Rather than existing residents trying to restrict a venue which is increasing it's level of sound pollution year on year.
  2. Forget the £400 for tyres. Get back down there, "fall" over, sprain your ankle and wrist and get them for that. £3000 easy, that's before the nightmares and stress and time off work Those pot holes are giant, even just chukcing in a bag of gravel would be a start.
  3. Great scenes everyone Keep off the grass. No running. No ball games. No fishing. No skateboards. No bicycles. No diving. No bombing. Don't climb the trees. Don't talk to strangers. Don't go too far. AND STOP MAKING SO MUCH NOISE!!!!!!! "How come all you do is stay in and play video games????"
  4. I'm not usually one for e-petitions but I know this is becoming a serious issue for motorsport locations where I've been on track days and they need the support of petrol heads and the wider sane community to protect the massive British heritage within motorsport and stop everyone being forced to enjoy the country in silence. Please feel free to sign here, but only if you're on board. http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/72458 Apologies if it's a re-post. e-petition blurb introduce mandatory noise complaint waiver for anyone who buys or rents a property close to motorsport venue Responsible department: Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs There are innumerate cases of people knowingly moving within close proximity of motorsport venues, only to try to have their planning permission revoked or have them closed completely when they take exception to the noise. It is extremely detrimental to the UK's motorsport heritage, when all the motorsport venues start disappearing. Motorsport and the associated mechanical/engineering business is a key British export and second to none in the world of motorsports. As such, anyone who wishes to buy or rent a property within a determined distance of a motorsport venue should have to read and sign legislature that waives their right to complain about the noise from the nearby venue. If they do not wish to be bothered by something that was a fixture of the community long before they arrived, they should not move there in the first place. For me, moving to a house near a known venue and moaning about noise is a bit like those people who live on flood plains and moan about floods. Do your research first Thanks anyone who signs up.
  5. I've been soaked head to toe by a bus, properly wet right through to my reg grundies. After the initial shock, what else was there to do but Never tagged a pedestrian deliberately myself, but I'm fairly certain that bus driver knew what he was doing, but then again, that's probably as good as it ever gets for a bus driver so I'll let him have it and chalk it up to experience
  6. As per above, my body shop guy had no trouble painting and fitting. They look fit, even if I do say so myself.
  7. That's proper sick that. Really nice work When's there going to be a kit for the DE available????
  8. 888s??? You've rocked my world view Dan. Everyone knows it MPSS or you're in a ditch! So much so, I took this photo at Kennedy Space centre of the rubber they use on space ships just so everyone could see what is endorsed by NASA!!!
  9. - Accidents at record low - I2014 continued a long-term trend of ever improving air safety. A record-low seven fatal commercial passenger incidents occurred up to Dec 16th, according to the Netherlands-based Aviation Safety Network, an infinitesimal figure amid the several million flights and billions of passengers each year. There were 15 such accidents last year, while the annual average since 1946 is 32.
  10. Nice work, as usual. If you're not careful you could end up with a beading complex All this wax effort has made me curious. I generally can't be bothered with waxes, by the time I get to that stage on a regular wash I always take a quick look in the shed at the mountains of wax pots I have, but inevtibly reach for a spray QD or sealant which is easier to apply and takes half the time. Am I missing out?
  11. I've got a mines replica, but I keep catching myself making eyes at the GT style lip Granville linked to above. Think they look fit as.
  12. Brilliant description, actually made me LOL Helmoltz resonator is the layman's term for "dildo thing".
  13. You sprout lovers are a twisted bunch!
  14. Service Items!!!! 5 litres of Titan Race Pro plus some proper Jap goodness JDM Yo!
  15. Merry Christmas gang! May your presents be Zed related and your dinner be sprout free From the second best Xmas movie franchise ever, after Die Hard.
  16. If you tighten everything up and it's still resonating, might it be worth dynamatting the shizzle out of the whole space?
  17. I was so tempted to try that when I was at the start! I was weighing up the likelihood of my plates being captured on camera and how inconspicous I would be in a Zed with UK tags in Paris at that time of day LOL !!! "Rendezvous" was an inspiration for this little trip, also "The Run" for obvious reasons (see below for any new Zedders who've not seen it). One day, when I'm too old to lock up in jail or the plates are covered in mud, I might do a proper one
  18. Yeah, he's a legend. I've learnt so much from his free content that I bought a few products to try out! Have a look here if you want, I might even make an order in the new year if you want in. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/80466-ammo-products-test-more-like-used-then-reported-on/
  19. Didn't pack a tripod so the exposure options were so slow I couldn't take good ones by hand, so I've tried to edit out all the noise in Aperture. Sort of worked. I won't forget a tripod next time! Although I am parked on a roundabout there, even at 2-3am there are still Fedz and the odd delivery van, who take exception to that kind of behaviour
  20. Yeah, I mounted it externally for a better view, but didn't think about the possibility of rain. Might treat the go pro case to some hydrophobic coating for next time.
  21. I can't even imagine doing it in the day time, even at night some of it felt so wrong. Giving way to traffic coming onto roundabouts? Traffic lights in between the the "lanes" actually part way around the roundabout? Don't get me started on their absence of lane discipline or the bus lanes
  22. That photo is brilliant. I wish I had a proper set up for night photography, I could have taken a load of good shots that would be impossible by day.
  23. What's wrong with these c****? Is it really that hard not to be a douche? I hope the Fedz take them down with extreme prejudice.
  24. I loved it, always liked Paris but it's mentally busy in the day and saw an article in one of the Shell spam emails about doing it at night. I think I might have to collect some more night cties, just got to make sure the things you want to see are lit up Sorry GM
