  1. Well I think it was parachute lessons, she mentioned me jumping out of a plane. Not fancy a track day tuition Dave, sure there is a thread about it somewhere
  2. I rescued a very nice looking girl in a black zed on the A1, she was being terrorised by a muppet in a boxter. Got a very nice wave.
  3. Hes back bud but has a very busy inbox, better to give him a ring.
  4. Thanks bud, obviously this isnt zed specific. I think Clive would enjoy your new one
  5. Great pics Al, looks like a great trip, would have loved to help[ with the whiskey wall.
  6. Would love to see what would happen if Paul took his car down there
  7. Quick, put it back in the box Looks very Must admit that using clay bar has the same effect as the squeeky blackboard on me
  8. As we all should accept, driving the zed can be a challenge and having reached a certain stage of competence its ofthen difficult to take it safely to the next stage. Many do track days and those who are lucky enough to get some tuition and are amazed at what they were doing wrong or missing. I was lucky enough to visit Donny with Sinbad and Ricky recently, it was great to watch and as ever very nice to meet people. We were lucky enough to meet a great guy called Clive who is very experienced, he took Ricky out in his Zed and the results were spectacular. At the time we briefly discussed a track tuition day for members but up to now have taken it no further. So.. I cannot give specific dates, timings or costs for a tuition day. They need not be at Donny although this is central. Before approaching Clive I would like to guage interest or otherwise in this. Just to give you an idea what he has achieved. http://www.alfaracer.com/Avon/index.html Other driver tuition is available and it may be the case that a series of days is organised over the year. Martin Input please
  9. Wouls recommend a driving day. Having attended a couple of track days with zeds its always interesting to see how much a driver can improve under tuition even though they are pretty good road drivers. Can anyone remember if we have any current links on here. Could always get one set up for the forum.
  10. Spend the time working on the next mod, its an ongoing thing
  11. Looking good for getting away, managed to get some cover so unless its insanely busy there should be no problem. Anyone know where the Thurrock meets is. Assuming still 6pm at Bluewater. Help.
  12. Best of luck with the sale, great car althoiugh I am biased. Cant argue with the price.
  13. Remember to smile at the camera, we will be watching
  14. Hi bud and welcome to the forum. First off what tyres do you have and how much wear. My initial thoughts are that you are losing grip at speed which would give something like that with the traction control kicking in. The zed is a great car but can be a bit back end slippy with worn or "certain" brands of tyres. Thats only my opinion though. If you have an area where you feel safe with plenty of space driving with the traction control off may give you an idea but its a bit extreme after only two days. Top Gear
  15. I have a non Gt with leather seats. Just to make it easier to decide
  16. Now how would I know it was that Mine is set at 6600
  17. Not near my car so cant check the location, what is your rev limiter set at, sounds very low to be that though. You can check the setting on the roll on display on the silver tabs on the dash to the left of the wheel.
  18. Think its starts with newbie then goes hopeful until about 150 ( I think) then you become dedicated and after that a lost cause
  19. Temper orange, now we dont see one of those very often. Looks
  20. Going to be interesting watching you mod the zed
  21. set up an account on photobucket http://photobucket.com/ Click on the choose files and select which one you want to load from your pc. copy the IMG CODE under the uploaded pic and paste it on your open post on here mate.
