Trouble is, weather conditions make a massive difference to drive by noise, and that's not something you can ever tie down in writing.

And pads?

It could remain open for racing and FOS/Revival, but closed to TDs. That's not impossible.

And what fluid?

Bite can be solved with pads. As for fade, what exact models of EBC pads and discs are you running?

Not excessively, no they're not. They do have that 'bark' though that really kicks the levels up, and of course because all drivers want a comfy cosseted car they have to make the exhaust louder so that the tone cuts through all the sound deadening these days.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Funds sent, thanks bud

What issues are you having with your current setup?

And because of that, fewer and fewer people can enjoy track driving and you run the very real risk of it being banned altogether. Given that as an alternative, it's incredibly self defeating to run loud on track unless racing. 108dB is utterly insane volume wise. That is deafening levels without ear protection.

First off, they don't have to give you a courtesy car, and it's not their fault you live so far from them. They cannot withhold the return of the warranty cost as you've not used it: None of the issues you have with the car fall under the warranty, they fall directly under the responsibility of the dealer to sort. You have to let them take the car back and assess it, and fix it as well.

It'll never happen, and if it does it'll be so anodyne that it'll lack any kind of character.

It's just a car. If anything, I drive mine more in the winter as I love the challenge wet and cold weather brings to a driver.

It's usually very obvious if a car is too loud for track or not, even without a noise meter. Drive by meters are a pain though, I hate those too. I'd like to see them clearly painted so you know exactly where to lift, rather than guess.

No age at all. Good to see something like this being used still though, looks mint as well.

I did, good spot.

I'm talking about track use, not road use. Bungs & cats always in on track.

Were they made by a blind one armed ferret on work experience on a Friday afternoon? That's utterly shocking. Send 'em back and ask for either parts that have half a chance at fitting, or a refund. A little bit of massaging isn't out of the question, but those parts aren't even in the same postcode as the car.

I actually have bet on Nico to win, just so at least if it does happen then I have money to console me. If he doesn't do it this year, he'll never do it. He has the best mechanics, had a 48pt lead at one point, his main competitor has suffered from many mechanical issues, he's driving as well as he ever has. If Lewis beats him again, then I think he'll never ever be the same again.

Today, according to the first post.

I fitted the cheapest ones I could get my hands on when mine went pop Out of all the lights on my car, they're the ones I care about the least.

Lewis didn't get the correct setup all weekend, hence why he was so far off the pace. He gambled with sticking with one setup hoping he'd learn it, but it just didn't work out. That said, Rosberg had the race of his life, I've rarely seen him look that comfortable. Although another couple of laps and Ricciardo would've had him I reckon. Still too many races left to call it. Malaysia could go either way, I'd expect Lewis to do well at Suzuka and COTA, Mexico will be tight, Brazil suits Lewis more, and if it goes down to the final race at Yas Marina I'd put money on Hamilton as he's been there and done it before. Rosberg looks more comfortable then he's ever been, but he's not had a fraction of the issues that Lewis has had this year. Wait until it starts getting tough, then we'll see.

Also, stop looking at dodgy pr0n sites on your iPad.

Is it that obvious?!
