  1. I was going to say, £80 is a bargain! Best way is to insure with someone who chucks track cover in for free, like REIS or CCI.
  2. A ) Nothing. B ) You get nothing, other driver claims off his own track cover and gets some money back. C ) Nothing, but this is why TDOs have very expensive liability cover and you sign disclaimers. If you were driving dangerously and the TDO had done everything within their power to stop you then you'd be up for a manslaughter charge at the very least. D ) Same as above, although possibly the next of kin for the other driver would get the insurance money from the car. Track day cover only covers you for damage to your car and nothing else. No cover for personal injury or damage to other objects (cars or scenery) is included.
  3. Never. I will never, ever be priced off the road. I'd give up SkyHD before I stopped driving, and that's saying something.
  4. Very possible Russ. Also why wait three months? It's under warranty, take it back asap and get them to sort it if it's broken.
  5. Because it's horrible abrasive destructive crap, probably.
  6. True, but if that doesn't shift it then you'd need professional help.
  7. Wash to remove any big bits, then a clay bar, then possibly some kind of mild paint cleaner (Scratch X etc) if it still shows.
  8. If you've got lots of receipts, lots of details with times and dates you contacted your landlord/letting agency, then stand your ground. If you're lacking in details in any way then you might need to compromise further. I'm only thinking about how strong you can prove your case without worrying what anybody else is going to say should it come down to it.
  9. Right, you're on about the difference between open pit and a sessioned day. They'll still probably do session days and they're a very good idea as long as people are honest about their capabilities on track. I've only ever done one sessioned track day and that was with the VX220 owners club, it worked really well and I'd probably do another one again.
  10. Fabulous stuff, that kind of effort and determination is so impressive to see
  11. Nah, you can do an MSV trackday regardless of experience. I have.
  12. What % are they Buster?
  13. Definitely not OEM then, more than likely an Exedy one as that's stiffer than stock but still usable.
  14. I assumed that was a typo for wouldn't.

    Genius. Absolute genius. DO IT
  16. Heavy matters if you want your car to actually handle and be any good at TLGPs.
  17. They did a massive re-design about 3 years ago and it grew up a lot: No boobs, no chav, loads of tech how-to articles, it was brilliant. Clearly that didnt work for their readership base as they ditched it a few months later, at which point so did I.
  18. Fugly, heavy, fugly, heavy. Fugly. Heavy.

    You lot have got no taste, I swear. Someone puts a huge bodykit with chavvy wheels on and you're all over it, but a car with a FRICKIN' ALIEN ON IT gets slaughtered??!! Bah. *gets coat and leaves in a sulk*

    THAT'S AWESOME!!! There has never been a car that manly, I'd love that!
  21. Can't really help on the biting point but if it's much stiffer than the BMW then it's almost certainly not OEM. How many miles has the car done?
  22. About 2 lots of 5 should do it (5 goes in quick succession, then a good couple of mins at 70 to cool the brakes, then another 5)
