  1. Cool, can i come... in your delorean?
  2. Carlton sorry mate this list you've copied is about a month out of date, and entries are closed for this unfortunately. I'll refund you the payment now too...
  3. All fixed and back to normal... managed to find another tyre and got it fitted today... but my pocket is now £170 lighter.
  4. God man, thanks.
  5. CHANGE IT! After witnessing a car leave the outside lane into the hard shoulder at a 90 degree angle and smack right into the barrier at 70+. It wasn't pretty and could have taken out a number of cars in it's path to the hard shoulder barrier! (Heading from Port Solent to Maidstone) I wouldn't want to drive round on a tyre which could pop at any moment. It's for your own safety mate. A costly replacement but life is priceless. Cheers pal - i've found a replacement (same type) on eBay for only £160, so that should be turning up tomorrow.
  6. Yeh thanks all, i hadnt thought about the MOT. Tez, sounds like a 90 degree valve, see the pic below. So you think just fitting a standard valve will work? Sounds like a plan...
  7. Hi all, I've had a slow puncture on my front right wheel since i got back from the 'ring a couple of weeks ago, so i took it to the garage this morning... He took the wheel off, and there is a small bulge on the inside edge of the sidewall... it's not immediately noticeable, but it is there... So anyway, we found the culprit to be a faulty valve (which he doesnt know how to fix?!), but regardless he said he wouldnt refit that tyre anyway due to the egg... To make matters worse, i have Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres fitted, but these have been replaced with the Assymetric versions, so the garage said they cant get any tyres the same as mine - so i have to either replace both front or all 4 tyres. So my questions in order are: 1. For a minor bulge in the tyre wall, is it necessary to replace the tyre? 2. Valves on Volk wheels... are they Volk specific or do any generic valves work? 3. Can anyone recommend a supplier for 1x Goodyear Eagle F1 tyre (non-assymetric). I have found one on eBay at £160, but cant find any on the usual supplier sites (camskill etc) Cheers.
  8. Looks awesome.
  9. All the tickets and passes arrived this morning Unfortunately Dobby and I will have to report to HQ for a track session briefing at 9am, and then we're on track at. 10am... I think we'll all need to meet at around 8am outside the venue to get in on time (i think someone mentioned earlier a good location? I could be wrong...) anyone local have any suggestions??
  10. Had 2 zeds, both 2003 models... i did 30k in my first zed and 5k in my second, and neither have used any oil at all.
  11. lol, with only 124 members...
  12. Noooooooo i wont admit defeat. I heard it's still sold in France... i should have stopped off last week when i went to the 'ring. Tarmac... top idea, get on it bro...
  13. My all time favourite beer was Kronenbourg Blanc but it was discontinued in the UK a couple of years ago... Does anyone know of any UK importers that might be able to get hold of it?
  14. I'd stick it up at £7k and see how you get on. Dont start right at bottom price.
  15. Looking excellent mate... but why did they take a month to do?
  16. ...but it was posted about a week ago...
  17. I almost forgot the most important pictures - my stickers.
  18. Hey pal, It was great to see you on Sunday morning... i'd been driving round for 30mins trying to find the enterance! And i must apologise for both myself and my brother - we were out until 3am in Adenau drinking (after a 14 hour journey), and we were both very rough.... i was sick at 7am when i got up, and i've not done that in about 5 years... I got on track straight away after leaving your hotel and did 1 lap (see the video on my thread)... i loved it, but took it very very slowly (possibly because of the night before lol). The track was then closed as i came off for 2 hours, so we went to the GP circuit and got some food, and i bought my all important stickers. So we eventually got back to the track at 11.30am and i was going to do 3 or 4 laps, but having done just 1 more it got closed again (Thats when you saw me in the queue). So unfortunately we had to call it a day then as i needed to leave at 12pm to catch the ferry - and we made it there with just 2 mins to spare - we were the last car on the boat!! Anyway - thankyou very much for your input and advise - i wouldn't have experienced this if it wasnt for you.
  19. Here's a few pics i've found on some of the photographers websites, plus then some pics i took this weekend, and a video of my first lap. And the video... spent most of my time looking in the rearview mirror...
