NXT wash is garbage. Bought some to use to wash the vans at work, wish I'd never bothered. Everything else looks good though, I use a lot of those products myself

I'm back! I'm not dead! I'm slightly deaf Car was ace and vids to come soon!

REVERSING ARGH

Ah, but this is proper Belgian Stella, not the bleached crap they sell in the UK It's actually really drinkable and smooth, lovely drop

Scratchy scratchy. Go to the jet wash and take your cleaning stuff with you. You'll look a ****, but at least your car will look pretty.

I'm 2 litres of Stella down and my spelling OCD is still firing on all cylinders

What does the light reserve?

Off to Spa today ready for the trackday tomorrow, weather looks foul but I'll have a blast anyway GoPro is all charged up too, I'll be interested to hear the sound quality once it's in place, it's quite noisy in here now. I've picked up a set of noise cancelling headphones that I'm using to stop myself going deaf

I'm currently about 4 cars behind you in the previous carriage, in the blue MR2 Twin nostrils, aftermarket black wheels, lady driver, on your way to Spa too?

I have no idea what any of you are talking about Anyone care to elaborate?

Divorce. It's the only way to be sure. Aside from nuking from orbit, of course.

Change it all as a first point, can't hurt and is the quick and easy option.

Ah well, at least I know where they're from now, thanks chaps They're not powder coated, I sprayed and lacquered them myself. They came out really good in the end, just not for the right car

As per the title, is it? I've got a bunch of these and I sprayed them all up nicely to match the MR2 wheels, and then I discovered they're not MR2 nuts If they're not Zed ones, I've no idea what they're from!

Ironically if RB had complied and used the dodgy fuel sensor and been able to run more fuel and more power, they'd have been okay. That's what makes a mockery of the decision.

Pretty much, yes. Same as with the 911 Turbo/S, you get two power figures and you always need to go on the lower one as the higher one is only ever available briefly. Until they launch a special edition and you can have it all the time

The Huracan doesn't need to worry about the 458: It needs to worry about the new R8 and the 458 replacement due soon.

I always wave, and sometimes get one back. Not often though, but then it has been four years since I owned a Zed

You're all kind of right, more or less. Basically the car will have electronic boost control, so the waste gate will be set to open at say 1 bar under normal conditions. If certain conditions are met (sport mode on, engine oil at right temp, certain throttle threshold reached etc) then the controller will hold the waste gate closed until 1.2 bar, hence the term overboost.

Lol, that letter is brilliant!

Tough. They knew what they were getting from the very start, but they wanted to press ahead with fuel saving and other crap instead of letting race cars actually race.

Get that in writing. It's not about what rules are in place, it's also about common sense. I don't drive the 911 around when at work, it's just not the right image.

Don't feel too bad mate, you might not have done anything even with run off: Mate of mine who I sold the VXR220 almost came a-cropper at Anglesey, when he tried to take Turn 1 and the car kept going straight over the grass. Only the fact the track was clear the other side meant he had time to find grip and stop. I also know of one guy who managed to drive into a marshall's post at the same track...! It happens to the best of us, don't sweat it. Even if you were in a 500kg Caterham, you wouldn't have stopped it. Like you say, once you're on the green stuff you ain't stopping for anything.

This man has taste, that's a pretty good list. Any reason why just normal GTB not GTO on the 599? Personally I'd have: Zonda F Roadster 2.7 RS replica 2-11 F12b Carrera GT Clio 200 Cup (yes, really!) Cayenne Turbo S That would do me. Covers everything from the snotter to use around town to the grand tourer to the classic that you can actually use to the trackday toy.

Oil and battery I wouldn't worry about. Clutch pedal could be damage to the slave/master via shock from the crash, but again I'm not convinced I'd do anything to investigate if everything else seems okay. What I would do is be very concerned about the chassis being straight, but that's something you'll only find out after you've got everything fixed and tried to do an alignment. If you feel like it, it might be a good idea to post up exactly what you have to replace and the costs involved to give others an idea of repair costs should they find themselves in a similar place, or at least they could help determine whether someone felt like taking up trackday insurance for their own trip. Massive commiserations btw, and I genuinely mean that: Tbh, there but for the grace of God go I. I've been lucky so far, but luck doesn't last forever. Just glad you're okay mate, that's the main thing.
