That's probably worse than my one :pac:

Doesn't have the silver missing though!

Happened the parking sensor one in the father's old Mondeo after about 30k, they're really bad for it.

I'll be there.

Hopefully.

Amazed it hasn't been cancelled from the storm. Only reason I'm still going is they already have my 70 euro.

sound are you taking the rx out on track ?

be very interested to see and hear it in the flesh:cool:

I think we'll all be drifting anyway....

I've never had the RX on track. There isn't much interesting about it - it's one of dozens sold in 2006.

Now where the **** did I put that anti-death hat thing?

Didn't say I wouldn't be tracking it...

First time on track and the RX is going. (Was tempted to 'borrow' the Megane....)

Anyone been watching that show Leepu and Pitbull?

First car was nice enough, second car meh third car christ and I'd hate to be involved in a crash in it. Not that any of his cars ever have safety at the forefront of priorities.

Your man Leepu would give an aspirin a headache yet somehow I kinda enjoy watching it .

Leepu and Bernie you mean? Is that that show from waaaayyyyy back in the early 00's about that Bangladeshi nut job and the Bethnal Greene mechanic?

Same bangladeshi nut job but he's now in America. It's a new series same kinda thing except in the first two episodes they worked on old American muscle cars leepu designs where he goes to town on them and Pitbull doing engines, suspension brakes etc

Don't tell me it's that singing ape Pitbull?!

Looks like a cross between a Camaro and batmobile.

You don't need heated seats when on a track. You get warm and sweaty from doing the laps.

...or is it just me? :pac:

Stupid fúcking bitchés, If you dont know how to park a car dont leave your god damn house.
Some one scrapped their RED car along mine when they got out of their parking space, When I parked beside them we noted we had left loads of room for them as I wont park beside someone if I think there is a chance they have to squeeze in. Scrap along side of doors and chips out of the plastic door bumper.:mad:




Yes car is dirty due to the heavy rain, was going to wash it before cars and coffee tomorrow but do think I will go now.

That's brutal altogether! Any CCTV around?

RX8 did stellar service on its first trackday - even in the rain. Even if the whole ABS/stability control/TCS kept puking after a lap or two leaving it running 0h-natural. Also burned a half-litre of engine oil over the course of 100km...

Heated seats were glorious.

I burned a full tank and a head gasket, too much drifting!
Nice meeting you man, same goes for vintage and davycc once again.

It was great until that needle took off

Couldn't bring a car out with the floods that were on the roads. Luckily I got my hands on the pajero. The floods were up to the side step on that!





As you can see in the first picture, the steering material has ravaged over time, hence the silage tape. It's starting to get grubby in other places too. I can easily source another steering wheel, but is it a difficult task to replace one?
