  8. well i wanna just start off for a bit of fun and see how it goes really.. i hada race day sat and to be fair i trounced everyone by a lot 93 laps on endurance with the closet being 81 and i was consistant 50sec laps and their record in them karts is a 47.9 my first time on that track we still won even though my team mate after 5 laps was nicked named the spin doctor.. i counted 7 laps and 6 spins... but pulled it out the bag and won.. and i just loved the whole racing it just felt great.. anyways here is the post i have put on karting1 forum i found.. Hi all.. hoping you can help me out here. i have owned my kart for couple of years now but it.. well ... its lived outside and not been used (although has had a cover).. but after a day at lydd on there karts and taking away 1st place trophy but 2 secs a lap to the next closet i really wanna get into it.. i am an electrical engineer in romney marsh, love my cars and think track days are expensive and you cannot "race" on them.. whereas i loved the race aspect it just felt so right for me.. so i have taken a load of pics of my kart then stripped it down.. any advice on what it is, what parts i need etc would be great.. so parts i need.. 1)engine rebuild,.. is this something i can do ? or do i need to send it away. if so where to and how much? 2) brake master cylinder, and may be caliper too as well as a new disc 3) a new seat 4) race suit 5) wheels/bearings where is the best place to get these bits.. and costings roughly would be great here are pics of what i have.. i am hoping to get on some of the race days at lydd after a bit of practice and then go from there.. i do know when i took it out on the day we got it it rev'd very high.. when it run it never idle'd is this right? also with the lap timer on it, does that automatically connect to the one at the curcuit or does it have to be programmed. again many many thanks for any help you can send my way cheers pete

  13. This is my first time of asking for a photshopped pic... i have got the 2 weeks before JAE off will be fully valeting my supra. but i still don't like my wheels black and i have not got money at the mo for new wheels and no one wants to swap so thinking of getting them off.. taking off the tires and spraying them.. now i like the idea of green.. but couple of idea.. being that they are advan 3 spokes. all wheel green the spokes green and the lip black (really like this) green spoke, silver lip or black spokes and green lip.. anyone any good at photoshop be able to do this for me so i get an idea of how they would look on the car.. or anyone else got colour ideas.. thecar and wheels.. maybee this green (same green as hammerite smooth) or do i need to go brighter? http://img-1.fruugo.com/product/2/11/1018112_0280_0260.jpg thanks
  14. i could not bring myself to read the ad...
  15. similar.. What my mate said: - regards to the q about the same as TG. The one on TG was a 6L V12 non turbo, earlier model. The later model (post 2002) came as TT and also the AMG changed from non supercharged to supercharged at the same time. Hence the huge difference in power from 360hp to 500hp... a LOT of car for the money
  16. this is gonna be awesome.. although feel my time is gonna be taken up by gears 3... but i will defo be getting it when it comes out.. i loved the tank sequence vid they bought out
  17. yeah i notice the towbar too .. some people really should not be allowed cars
  18. advert as below for a friend http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3130804.htm he really wants to get back into a supra... this is a stunning car..
  19. okay sorry i just put up a quick post to see if there is any interest.. here is a bit more detail.. they were referbished just before i got the car so no kerbing marks.. 1 tire is a toyo the other 3 are wanli?? the tire size are fronts 215 45 17 and the rears are 235 45 17 (the tire wall sit straight up so sure the could easily go wider when needed.. like said good tread all round. not sure if would clear uk's as not got them i don't know ofset or width but if required i drop them off the car quick and check if wanted..
