    Well I was on Genmorangie, which is my tipple of choice, but I've run out so now I'm on the everyday shit, something or other black label - got it for Christmas or something...

    rubbish

    Yep, now normally at a moment like this I'd try the fashion channel and watch lingerie or as I like to call it, "fit girls in pants" or something, but no joy there at the moment...

    Glad I'm not the only one with nothing better to do than be on here! Just watching Spandau Ballet...
  13. What you want is the minimum number of cones you can get away with, otherwise you'll spend all day picking them up, and it'll look confusing from inside the car. That's what track day organisers try for. Is it just an open area that is going to be coned out? If so, you'll need to make sure there is enough run-off area particularly on the outside of corners and after braking zones, so if you lose it you won't crash through a line of cones and straight into the path of a car going round the other side of the circuit. Trig's looks OK from that point of view, apart from maybe the right hand end where the corners are a bit close. Is there someone from Bovingdon that could suggest something for us - they should know the best way of doing it?
  14. Guys, you can't have a single car width on a track! It'd be like driving round a car park. One of the whole challenge of track driving is in picking the best lines through corners. Even the tightest track is at least 4 car widths, the wider the better.
  15. Just to echo what others have said, I have a Cusco front brace and I can safely say it makes no difference handling wise at all, on the road or track. At least not that I noticed! Looks nice though...

    Gang initiations

    Yeah, haven't you heard? Apparently if you keep looking at porn you suddenly lose interest in naked ladies and then you go blind. Honest, happened to a mate of mine...

    hello

    Another local then! Hello and welcome! Let's have some details then, spec, colour etc...

    Honda S2000

    Just looked up the specs: S2000 lateral G 0.90 Supra lateral G 0.98 So I think you'll find the Supra is the faster cornering car. As for getting "caught off boost", if you are driving a track you should never be off boost, because you would never drop below 4k revs.
  19. The old ones had a space for you to write who you were, but whenever I used one I never had a pen, or it was dark or something.
  20. Yep, not enough brake fluid is the cause of that, for 100% certain!
  21. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/colin.lewarn/caption.jpg Can I interest you ladies in a .co.uk sign, it's just up there...
  22. Yeah, pre-facelift they were optional on both, after facelift they were standard on the RZ and optional on the RZ-S.
  23. If it's an RZ it will definitely have the big brakes, otherwise it may have. Have a look at the calipers, they are quite different - you should be able to find photos of both types on here. Front discs are 323mm vs 295 I think for the smaller ones. Standard ones are fine. I've switched to DBA slotted discs now as I managed to warp the standard ones, but you are unlikely to do this unless you're doing trackdays with big braking zones.
