Also, the new stamp duty on BTLs will do far more for the housing market than a few thousand immigrants ever will.

No, but they do point forwards so they catch cars driving past them. Remove the front plate, and you instantly remove that ability.

Disagree. UK politics relies massively on a strong opposition, and a weak one does no-one any favours at all. Look at what New Labour got away with, and look at how stringent the Tories are being on cuts right now. Without that opposition, bad things happen. Both Corbyn and Trump appeal to those who have no real understanding of how the world works, they just want something different. That different isn't actually a good thing though...

Corbyn is the most useless opposition leader since Iain Duncan Smith. He was a protest vote from the extreme Left Labour fan club, who felt that the only way to win an election was by being the polar opposite of the winners. Great in theory, less great when you realise that the very reason they lost is because no-one* wants that kind of socialist nonsense any more. *well, clearly some people do, but they're a bit loonie anyway.

It's not that important, not really. Nothing will change whichever way the vote goes, nothing of consequence anyway.

No chance. If my car gets nicked, I want as many ways of it being pinged up on ANPR as possible. This is why no-one takes these online petition things seriously. Do we really want our politicians wasting their time over trivial stuff like this?? I certainly don't.

It's been acceptable to me, right up to today and hopefully beyond.

Two years ago??!! Good god man, with the state of the roads in Cambs you should be having it done about every six months max.

We can't cap EU immigration. We can cap non-EU immigration. We could halve the net migration to this country overnight if we wanted to, but we don't want to do that. Migration is a tiny, tiny fraction of the problems we have in this country. It's almost non-existent in terms of importance.

Apples and oranges. The TT has really sharp brakes too, but that's a bad thing as is light steering! Feedback is everything in sports cars. You really need to get the geo checked.

The Remain campaign bring up something easy to understand that may have been partially funded by people with a vested interest in staying, and it's the end of the world. The Leave campaign bring up something easy to understand that may have been partially funded by people with a vested interest in leaving, and it's the end of the world. Honestly, the hypocrisy is astounding. EVERYTHING is biased to some extent. Hell, I take my personal viewpoint simply because if we leave it will directly affect me in my pocket, so why should anyone else be any different? You're not exactly going to bit the hand that feeds you What's important is that there is good info from *both* sides, it's just picking out the wheat from the chaff. To simply dismiss anything because it comes from an opposing view is foolish in the extreme.

Actually, it's very likely to be 90% of the OPs problem (along with the tyre pressures).

That said, my old roadster was setup the same way and felt fine when I vmaxed it at 137mph indicated.

Amen brother!

FINALLY got home at 1am last night, after the 7 hour delay at the Eurotunnel! Man, that wasn't fun, especially as I've come down with merguez belly yesterday... Anyway, what a race! Safety car was out for too long at the start, but then it just got better and better. I doubt I'll ever see a win like that at LM in my lifetime ever again, and whilst it's gutting for Toyota I cheered like a crazy man when Jani went through on the pit straight So much great racing throughout the field, delighted for the Risi car in GTP as second is a magnificent achievement for them. It was brilliant, absolutely brilliant. Roll on next year.

No-one has mentioned geo yet, which is arguably the biggest thing that will change how the car feels at ALL speeds and in all conditions. You can set your car up for cornering (which loses straight-line stability), straight lines (which blunts cornering), or a bit of both (which compromises both). There's no 'perfect' solution, it just depends on what you want the car to feel like. Personally I prefer cornering ability, but there's no harm in having it set up to the alternative.

I would, but I'm going down tomorrow. Currently sat in a pub enjoying the first of many beers this week

The wing is fine, sod you all

HR, but if you're happy to paint then might as well save a few kgs and go with the TS option. You've no other carbon externally, just a bonnet would look a bit OTT I think.

Do as I say, not as I do Your car looks great from the factory, mine looked dull as ditchwater

I was very tempted by Ditch Finders and they'd have worked so well for LM, but this look is for the longer term so TT it is. Cost wasn't particularly cheap at over a couple of grand, and I could have got that down by using a cheaper material or not having the doors & shuts done, or even by just using someone cheaper. However, sometimes it's worth spending a bit extra on the parts and gaining a bit of trust from the chap doing the work, and I felt most comfortable doing it at this level. Very few people have seen it in the flesh, I put pics up here before social media so the comments are still coming through from friends and family. All seems very positive so far, which is always comforting as this price point

Where do you guys live, Beirut?!

I'll try and get some more tomorrow or over the week, weather is looking pretty dire until the weekend though.

Hah, that was always going to be a point of contention! It serves no practical purpose whatsoever, and that photo is doing it no favours at all but it's growing on me and I think it suits the car relatively well. The Alpina B6 GT3 car an with legs more cantered back which I may look into changing when I get back from LM, but we'll see.

I blame you and Grundy for this, y'know.
