  1. Mint! What were the parties like? Did you do the standard or the 5 star package? My mate is already booked up and has a squad for it so the pressure is on me now as I have a load of graft to do on my rescue dog before I let take her on a walk of the Modball proportion!
  2. Absolutely fantastic! Thinking of doing this next year, any tips on getting sponsors?

    Which exhaust?

    I'm due back on August 2nd if I do a 2 weeker so maybe. But if they offer me a 3 weeker then I'm snapping their hands off cos it's worth a hell of alot of money! Can't afford these goodies without the 3 week trips! But if I'm home then a couple of nights in the big smoke for our lass' birthday would be ideal!

    Which exhaust?

    After watching the videos of various cars on youtube I am quite a bit in love! Just mega pricey brand new! What's it like just driving about town? Or firing it up early in the morning? Most of the videos seem to just show people whacking it straight up to 6k inside a garage!

    Which exhaust?

    Having just received a stupidly generous cheque from Mr Inland Revenue, that Amuse system is just fantastic!
  6. Pretty certain all of the jobs that matter, and the less important ones, never get repeated due to badness. I think that a slip of a .com/.co.uk can't be considered as an actual job.... And actually the intention to give you guys a laugh can be considered a success first time round!
  7. Splitting hairs here a bit. What exactly have I done twice so far? Apart from this simple error.......

    Which exhaust?

    If you folks aren't already aware, I'm after changing my Cobra Sports unresonated system for something that is alot quieter down low. It's just too loud inside the car between 2k and 2.5k revs. Also the missus is wanting something that won't be noticeable from inside the house from 100 yards down the street. I'm with her on the inside of the car but to be fair I couldn't give a toss about exterior noise as when I open the throttle up and give it the beans I really want to be able to hear it! So the question is gurus.....what is the perfect system for me?
  9. .......when wanting to look for a new tent and I mistakenly type in www.blacks.com instead of www.blacks.co.uk Good grief!
  10. I think it's more the drone between 2k and 2.5k that gets her back up!
  11. DAMD and Amuse kits are tidy as Uncle Buck!
  12. I Dont think its the exhaust you need to swap Ain't marriage a bitch!
  13. I may have a 500 mile old Cobra Sports Y Pipe coming up for sale soon, it has a scuff on one of the flexis but apart from that it's spanking. Only one problem.....that being I'm going offshore in the morning and won't be back for 2 to 3 weeks.
  14. My missus is giving me seriois shizit about how loud the Cobra unresonated exhaust is on mine. Would this system be a step in the wrong direction?
  15. Also can anyone answer whether or not this exhaust is louder than the Cobra Sports unresonated system?
  16. Well you could say that I guess. The conversation would suggest otherwise though. Like I said I was stood talking to him for a good hour and a half so there was plenty of time to talk about everything. Not everybody just learns to drive at 17, he had been driving cars from way before then. Are you telling me that someone who spends 10 years driving terrible sensible cars and then goes out and buys a high performance car, they are going to be more prepared than someone who has only been around and owned high performance cars from a young age? But I mean it could be possible that what you say is right.
  17. Well his dad was a millionnaire like. To be fair the kid was a genius, he knew exactly what he was talking about when it came to cars, way beyond my understanding! I'm the biggest cynic in the world but you know when you can just tell when someone is completely genuine.
  18. Honestly, I was just stood there in awe of everything he was telling me! Obviously everything that I have said in my topic is just a fraction of what he told me because I am half cut, so I have pointed out the things that I found to be amazing. I just spent the entire time with my mouth agape!
  19. So............ On my way back to my hotel after an afternoon of moderate drinking, I regognise a guy walking up ahead of me. So I confront him in my usual northern way by asking him first if he works offshore and then upon him telling me that he's a bus mechanic, I then narrow it down to the last minute meet on the 10th at Danestone that I was randomly at last week. It turns out that he doesn't own a Jap car, but a modified Range Rover, and he was just there to see the cars. Now as much as this sounds like a pretty normal story it most certainly isn't....as Kieran is a 17 year old lad with autism, and his car profile up til now would destroy most people's in their lifetimes. In the hour and a half that I stood speaking to him, Kieran described modestly how he had dropped a v8 into an Astra VXR, owned an E92 M3 and was currently prepping his '78 5.0 Mustang (which his dad had left him in his will) for a trip down to Newcastle. Now normally I would call bullshizit on all of this but the way this lad unemotionally went about telling me just seemed to flick all of the right switches. Plus when a bus pulled up at the junction and he said, "that's my bus, it's just had a new engine." I said "what do you mean?" And he proceeded to inform me that he'd used 4000 shares to buy the bus and that every penny it earned was his. I believe that there is only a handful of times in your life where you meet somebody like this in your life and to be fair, I will probably talk about Kieran for the rest of my life.
  20. Just got the ridiculous news from the missus that I got a tax rebate. But the burning question is....how much was yours?
  21. Ha! Just get out on the beers man ya set of time waters!
  22. Any of our Aberdeen brothers fancy getting the beers in?
