    Plenum.

    Just done mine in vht wrinkle plus, will get some photos up
  2. Haha! There will be a lot of happy people when he gets his first win I really hope he does, but sadly i dont think he will, if he said he gave it everything he had in the tank, i wouldnt doubt that for one minute! The bigger names if you like (Dunlop, McGuiness etc) pull the bigger sponsors and better bikes. Michael Dunlops BMW (granted its never been there) is a factory bike with 225+ bhp, he pretty much breezed past anyone he came across, not to say he didnt ride superbly but to beat that BMW i think you would have to be on the ragged edge for the full distance, as Ansty was on his last lap.
  3. Never got the whole "racing" on straight roads with traffic, it proves nothing more than who will take the most risk! Get a revolver, put a bullet in, spin the chamber and pull the trigger if you want to take a risk!
  4. 214 mph through the speed traps (timed average), but according to Brembo's telemetry Dovi hit 224mph before he braked!!!!
  5. And this is how you deal with a 2nd place Not a whinge in sight
  6. Best race yet Worth a watch if its been missed!
  7. Nightmare! Any damage? Not too bad, a little prep and bumper respray. It was booked in anyway next week for arch roll and some other bits so can get it done at the same time! Hope you got some cash off them for it! I carefully went through the damage with him, told him what to expect cost wise and said I will get him a quote

  9. At least the t*t parked in the space in front of you didnt reverse into you like I witnessed last night, fortunately I was there to see it
  10. Never got the whole vpl thing, you still get vpl with strings, thongs or whatever, just go commando as you say
  11. Oh Mrs B!!! And us guys get accused of lowering the tone
  12. apart from the Woosh of a nice bit of good old fashion boost Like this
  13. I have often seen discussed on here on how we all get to, this car is quicker than that etc and we all know we like a good nurburgring lap time and i have often produced stats with this dude at the helm (usually dismissed), so interesting to read about lap times from the horses mouth. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=30067 Cayman S 8.16 Boxster S 8.17 E46 M3 8.22 350z 8.26 S2000 8.39 Just picked some random cars (all times by Hurst) which are often discussed as alternatives or comparisons with the 350z Just 10 seconds over 13 miles and 8 mins is pretty impressive if you ask me, just 4 over the E46
  14. Is the beam pattern on zenons not produced by the bulb? Scratch that, i thought it contributed but a little read up suggests not
  15. Staggering really to think all 3 have pretty much sold out, well certainly the P1 & LaF! 375 P1, s 499 LaF, s 918 918 Over 100 million !!!! Interesting LaF only gets one vote, guess you have to be a die hard fan to want one, would have thought a few more would go for a V12 with a rev limit of 9500rpm!!! I would bet it sounds the best in the flesh
  16. And not that light, heavier than std rays
  17. Good call, i wonder if any of them will be on finance?
  18. http://www.thebillio...cars/laferrari/ What criteria do you need? Is it the whole you need previous Ferrari etc? Think you need to have been on very select invite list from previous Ferrari ownership He said Ferrari not Porsche
  19. So with the road/track reviews now around on LaF what would you choose and briefly why! P1 for me, British, looks and technically the fastest of the three (not that any of us would notice a difference imho)
  20. And there is a 2nd hand one in the for sale section at the moment!
  21. Think these would look epic on a Zed and a great price too http://www.jdmdistro.com/shop/19-wheels/g-corporation-conquistador/

    New Boots

    I went for an anodised lip but not happy with the finish so going to get them sprayed instead, plus need to get some arch mods done so hopefully within a couple of weeks they will be on
  23. Probably because he feels somewhat fortunate to be in one of the best teams and is enjoying driving a car which is actually capable of being up the sharp end! Does anyone feel there is any truth in the discussions that Ricciardo is driving the car to the best of its abilities (still probably better than his last ride) where as Vettel is expecting it to be better and is so used to the car doing everything he wants his driving has been compromised? Wasnt this the whole discussion at the end of the of last year surrounding just how good Vettel is/was? I know there has been mechanical failures but did anyone expect DR to match if not better Vettel??
  24. Happy birthday Bob and to the other chaps
