Your local ASDA is significantly better than mine. I can't see any fatties in sports gear for one :lol:

Yep and it looks like one of the shoppers has arrived via jumbo jet. :scare: Bl**dy rich folk aye. :dry::lol:

With a move to central London at the beginning of 2016, it looks like I may have to sell the car :( Still looking at options on the storage front, but not sure.... A few things to sort before it really goes up for sale:-

 

Litchfield mapping - v5 and fitting of new intakes - booked for 4th Jan

Sly will then be servicing the car shortly after that (need to try and arrange for a windscreen replacement at the same time)

Then its off to get all the stone chips fixed (bloody Asda Day - will still go back)

Fingers crossed you can find a way to keep the GTR Graham.

 

Loved the video btw. ;)

 

Never really impressed by fast bikes at all but always impressed with any car that can even come close to keeping up with fast bikes. B):)

Would be even closer now, with the R888 tyres, the launch is much much better!!!

That'd be worth seeing. B)

 

The thing I always think with sports cars versus sports bikes is; yes the bike is incredibly fast but the car is still very fast plus it can carry 3 passengers and their luggage in comfort/warmth.

No bike in the world that can do that. :p:D

Thats really scrapping the bottom of the barrel for a reason :p

 

I enjoyed the rolling start though, makes you realise how quick a bike is and 222 down the straight :scare:

1300 supercharged and the guys can ride.... its a fair bit better than your average bike (and even your not so average bikes). Not many will stand a chance against these bikes.

You said 564 on GTR forum, I was wondering!!! :lol:

 

How are the intakes? I find the exhaust a lot louder with them on, but nevermind, I bought a Litchfield 102mm exhaust :lol: :lol:

 

How many runs on the dyno @ Litchfield?
