  1. So this is what's needed: Vredestein ULTRAC SESSANTA 245/40 ZR18 97Y XL £ 119.80 2 £ 239.60 Vredestein ULTRAC SESSANTA 225/40 ZR18 92Y XL £ 105.50 2 £ 211.00 Total amount 4 £ 450.60 inc. delivery. Anybody know a cheaper place than www.mytyres.co.uk
  2. I have 18" x 9.5 Rotas front and back. On there at the moment are Falken 452s - 245/45/18 and 275/40/18. They look a bit "tractor like" to my eyes. What does anybody recommend for replacements? I'd like a lower profile but also it's daily runner which I track so comfort and performance is important. Not asking much, eh?
  3. Sorry mate, I wasn't really after an argument either, my post did come across a bit harsh I'm more genuinely intrigued as to how anyone could find that in anyway safe. I'm all for ragging your car hard and fast on track, and god knows I've pushed my limits a few times, but I would never ever consider driving that close to anyone at that speed. One slight mistake from either of you and you're looking at a hugely expensive repair bill at the least. I really want to drive Combe, just need to get the bloody race-prep MR2 up and running now really No probs. You're probably right. And there was I looking on Pistonheads for a MR2 or 3 series or MX-5 track car to race all season. What needs doing to yours to get it working?
  4. Sorry in advance but old age means I've lost it. What do I have to put my name down for for 2 people in my car, with a track session with me driving? Is it 1 or 2 tickets?
  5. How can you say that? How on earth is it safe to be doing those speeds following someone that close? You'd rightly get bollocked for it on a motorway, so why does it suddenly become acceptable on a non-competitive track? Wasn't really looking for an argument Dan. Who said it was safe or acceptable? Not me. Like I said, I'm completely irresponsible. You know more about cars and tracks than me and I read your posts with great interest and I've learnt a lot from you. Maybe I'll see you at Castle Combe one day and you can show me how to improve my 1:27.
  6. I dated a German girl (literally) once. When I said I didn't want to see her a second time she sent me a card with a picture of a strangled cat. TBH I think they've ALL German girls have balls.
  7. I guess my well-earned reputation for irresponsible behaviour in all aspects of life must be true. Just watched it again and thought it was brilliant from start to finsih. I can't imagine for one second being in either of the cars and behaving any differently.
  8. My car's having a service as i type and the 452's are "very worn" on the inside and need replacing according to my man Dan at the garage. They've done about 10,000 of hard and fast road driving and about 100 laps at Castle Coombe so not bad I suppose. Cost £450 11 months ago so £0.045p per mile.
  9. I'd say it was frantic from 0:40 when his mate almost lost it before he'd really got going.
  10. Lord alive. My new fave video 4:05

  13. Nice HDR work! Would have been a peach if you'd taken 3 steps to the right and crouched down. You would then have the trunk of the big tree framing the front and the roof would be framed by the left hand branches. You'd also then remove the junction and fence which are distracting. I'd personally go there again and re-shoot as the tree is great and potentially you have a real cracker of a shot.
  14. I Zizzi in Cardiff. The one in Bristol is naff though.
  15. Is it me or is that a bloody good price??
  16. Google is your friend: ""The name Cy Waits has been everywhere lately, so who is this guy? Well, aside from the fact that he's Paris Hilton's latest boyfriend and he was also involved in the cocaine bust that occurred last night in Las Vegas? Here are five things you gotta know about this mystery man... 1. He's More Than Just a High Roller in Sin City: This guy doesn't play around in Vegas, although that's part of his job description. Waits is a nightclub mogul, comanaging some of the hottest spots on the Strip, including Tryst, Drai's and XS. 2. There Are Two of Him—Kinda: He has a twin brother, Jesse, who is also his business partner and rumored to be dating Brody Jenner's ex Jayde Nicole. 3. He Was Considered a Hot Pick: Extra picked both Waits brothers to be on its "America's Most Eligible Bachelors." Too bad they're off the market now! 4. Cy Waits Will Use a Gun If Necessary: Last Tuesday, Hilton came face-to-face with an intruder at her home. Waits grabbed his gun and jolted to the scene, proving he's her "knight in shining armor." 5. Paris's Parents Approve of Him: It'd be hard for any mom and dad to not like the man who possibly saved their daughter's life, right? Word is, Rick and Kathy Hilton have known Cy for years and give this budding relationship their blessing."" Read more: http://uk.eonline.com/uberblog/b197726_ ... z1ECAN9wuq
  17. Forgot all about it. Reminded about it at 19:00 as g/f was making me sausage, mash and beans. I told her she could celebrate by forming my mash in to the shape of a heart when she served it up. You don't lose, once you've got it. It's a gift.
  18. Not bad for 2 weeks work. £364k profit. I'm £10 million up but it's early days for you so I'll let you off.
  19. There you go: http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail/ ... ction=list A thread dedicated to your query.

  21. Read the last 100 pages of this forum (seriously) tonight and then decide: http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail? ... sion&it=le I like "Pirate" Pete Landau. He looks like a crook and, as an estate agent, that appeals greatly. He looks like he can cut a deal with his arse-cheeks. Don't forget: "Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked" Warren Buffett In other words, don't invest what you can't afford to lose. could soon turn to
  22. Just a warning to newbies. This is the Aim market. 15p can become 5p in a day. Do lots of research - info from page one of thread.
