  1. Either Bedford or Anglesey. Bedford is very safe as there's masses of runoff everywhere because it's purpose built, sadly that does make it a bit lacking in excitement at times. The first half of the GT circuit up to the long straight is good fun though, as is the final corner that Daryl mentioned above. I'm tempted to drag the '5 back there again at the start of December, depends on whether funds allow or not right now.
  2. I met Jo via the guitarist of the band I was in at the time, she's his cousin and came to one of our gigs. She was only 15 at the time and I was taken so didn't go any further, but a few months (and a birthday and a separation later!) we met up again when the guitarist threw a halloween party and she was there again. We hooked up and got married 7 years later. If I was single now I'm really not sure how I'd go about trying to meet someone, can't be bothered with trying to pull in pubs or bars and interweb dating doesn't hugely appeal. I'd probably just be happy to stay single and if someone fell into my life then great, but no worries if not.
  3. Yup, time to send him on or send him back to me.

    Just my luck

    +millionty Is that more than a billion? It's more than a billion, but less than a quadrillionty
  5. If you roll your ball rather than twist your ankle in the Zed, then I agree the RS pedal won't be of much use to you.
  6. It makes a massive difference. Anyone who says otherwise is a fibber. The Zed was the first car I learnt to heel and toe in, and the pedal was a huge help. Now I can do it without on any vehicle, but as a tool to learn with (or make life easier) it's a no-brainer.
  7. ARGH STOP MIXING YOUR TYRES/TIRES YOU LOT!!!11
  8. Must be you, mine are all in time of last post.
  9. Any reason it says Sho rather than Show on the button?
  10. Usually it's because the tyres you want aren't available in the stock sizes, the obvious one being the R888 so by dropping down a profile you gain access to more tyres. Given that the MPSS are available in the proper sizes though, there's no benefit. Some cars seem to hate dropping down to 40 profile and the TCS throws a hissy fit, some seem not to care at all. I personally suspect that it;s 99% down to the driver rather than the tyres, but have no proof of that other than my own experience.
  11. Actually, that's not a bad idea...!
  12. This thread gets the Ekona Seal Of Approval
  13. I only block the really hideous, massive sigs that take up 400% more space than whatever the poster actually has to say. SMD's one is cool, very subtle and inoffensive. There are others though...
  14. 50/50 I'd say. Yes, they've clearly made a cack-handed effort at the job but in return you should've specified that it was not to be done that way (not your fault, I wouldn't have done it any differently). At this point, I'd point out their error but offer to pay for 50% of the cost to get it repaired properly with them. Bit of give and take on both sides then.
  15. My forum browsing goes something like this: My bookmark is saved as the 'View New Content' link, so I hit that and get a page or so of new posts. I work my way through them. Once I've read anything vaguely interesting, I hit the 'Mark Community Read' link and then 'Mark all as read'. Currently at this point it then loops you back to the main intro page, and not the main forum page like it used to. Any chance of seeing if there's a way to put it back to the forums, as the picture/video on the main page takes longer to load and for some reason my browser (FF) doesn't seem to appreciate it too much. It's also a longer load on mobile devices too.
  16. Lolwut Z33 is the chassis code, like E90 or BS4 or 997.
  17. Who's suppressing it? Posts can still be made in Other Cars or in Off Topic, which both fit the subject nicely. We have a section for trackdays already.
  18. No need, it's not like we're inundated with motorsport threads as it is and the last thing this forum needs is yet another sub-forum, it's hard enough to navigate at times as it is.
  19. What part of the emissions failed? Check for exhaust leaks.
  20. No idea, I'm a good boy who doesn't speed! I don't think it appears anywhere on a license, but I bet it's on a database somewhere.
