It's my pleasure to announce a new addition to The Team. @Flashback has kindly agreed to donate some of his spare time to help out behind the scenes keeping the place running. I'm sure you'll all be extra nice to him now he's got the keys to the nuclear codes! to The Team.

New car Purchase - TT or Mustang? EDIT Mustang purchased!
Stutopia replied to marzman's topic in Other Cars
The Mustang in RHD is a once in a lifetime new car opportunity, there'll be banging out TTs for years and, even if they don't, there's thousands out there to pick up nearly new. I'm certain you'll have a 14-day cooling off period for something on credit, but defo don't wait, get down there and cause a stink until it's sorted. -
That’s not a bookshelf, it’s a crime against humanity!

Maybe a little bit. It’s not when compared to similar mileage Zeds of any colour. Perhaps, if you don’t consider the difference between 20k and 40k miles to be an issue. If you have your heart set on a manual, blue, GT with low miles, there aren’t going to be many choices. If it was me, a good condition, FSH, 40k car, plus an extra few grand in your pocket for mods would make more sense.

Seems a bit rich, but I guess it depends on the amount of fettling to make it fit perfect. I’d defo seek at least one more quote.

Agreed. DB5 next please.

New TV on the cards - suggestions welcome
Stutopia replied to ioneabee's topic in Off Topic Discussion
I luuuuuuurve my soundbar, https://www.whathifi.com/q-acoustics/media-4/review it’s always at a good price at Richer too. My only criticism is the remote is lightweight and cheap feeling, but the sound itself rocks (for the budget). Whatever TVs you whittle it down to, go and demo them, ideally with the sound bar(s) you’ve identified. There’s no substitute for your own eyes and ears, away from the harsh lights and sounds of the shop floor. Whatever reviews say, you’ve got to watch it. It’s one of the reasons Richer Sounds is so good IMO. -
You tried Zmanalex on here?

British Motor Museum & Evening - National Event
Stutopia replied to andy james's topic in National Events & Shows
I don't want to get in the way of the sign up process, but I do want to highlight the cracking amount of effort Andy has put in to make this happen. Whilst the Forum and the Team do what we can to support, this is all happening due to Andy's vision for a 2018 event and the graft required to pull it all together. I think everyone who attended Coventry last year, recognised that big national events are a huge part of the club, let's help Andy make this a success. Get involved and sign up! -
Finally got some pics uploaded

Not that I have anything against black rose, but I think black Black looks perfect on 70s. Nice motor. -
Love the gauges and switch gear, you may be building an e-type or it may be a spitfire. Have you had to make many tough decisions when it comes to purity versus sensible modern upgrades?

CAT Driver Training Days 2018 - Member Offers

Currently unemployed. What of it?

I really enjoyed the day, having no prior experience and a complacent view on how easy it was going to be, I learnt a lot. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to learn in a controlled environment, there isn't anything driving related you can ask the instructors at CAT they won't be able to help out with. I think I was most impressed when, after a day of trying to nail a drift, we challenged instructor Paul to show us how it's done, so he jumped in Wazzo's V8 Zed (a totally unique vehicle) and showed us how it's done in about 30 seconds flat.

Love all those paragraphs of sideshow, attempting to diffuse and cloud the issue at hand, all of which can be summed up in the simple phrase “based on current evidence”. Do you concede that bubbles can exist within water? Demonstrating that the surface of water can be curved when being acted upon by variables such as pressure, gravity, temperature and surface tension?

If google water bubble, see what comes up.

Apparently NASA do it to protect their state funding. No ones really sure why they get paid more for a globe. Probably some sort of tie in deal with the Premier League.

When a serious challenge is made to something that has been claimed, it’s done so by applying the scientific method. Findings are published and peer reviewed to discern if the method and findings were rigorous and stand up to challenge. They don’t make a youtube and then say, “Ha ha, disproved!”. Where is this serious science in FE? There literally is none. Not a single piece. It’s the exact same pseudo-scientific fabrication as other conjecture like Intelligent Design. Never once proven, in any shape or form. In all of the many posts you’ve made in here, not one has any grounding in anything other than anecdote. You can’t pick and choose which science bits you agree and disagree with on a whim, because you’re not backing the hypothesis that you want so desperately to be true, you’re backing the process. The best bit of science is the constant challenges, but do it with rigour, not stories.
-
When you dismiss evidence derived from the scientific method, recreated by totally independent individuals across many different organisations and countries, in favour of anecdotes and conjecture. How do you reconcile that with, at the same time, benefiting from the conveniences that the very same scientific method provides? Things like the internet, healthcare, your camera or your 350z? Is there a system for cherry picking which bits of science are “true” or is it just a matter of accepting anything that’s convenient/useful?
