Here's a what-if scenario for you all... Let's say we vote Leave. Cameron steps down next year, which leaves Boris as a shoo-in for the party leadership. Nothing will happen on leaving the EU on our side until then, so that gives Boris three years as PM. Now, he'll most certainly want to carry on being PM and win the GE in 2020, so how best to achieve that? Certainly not by alienating voters on the Left any more than he has to, given they'll already have plenty of ammo aimed at him. His own party will back him and he's adored by UKIP voters too, so no fear of annoying them regardless. So how does he win the centre-Left? Well, one way could be to make some nice concessions to the EU in terms of the withdrawal agreement and/or trade negotiations. Just enough to keep the Left not completely hating him, but not enough so he looks weak. Now I like Boris, and I'd love him as PM, but he's also incredibly shrewd and clever. He'll do whatever it takes to keep hold of power, and he won't rock the markets any more than he has to to achieve his goals. I'm not saying this is a guarantee, but at the same time I don't for one second expect him to keep a hardline over this. Political suicide.

But yes, a very true point JP.

Black, obviously.

Laid back? Perhaps. I'm certainly tired of the same circular arguments. If we leave, we'll do the easiest thing to get things rolling and back on track to help preserve whatever state our financial markets are in. What's the best way of doing that? By copying exactly what we had before, with a few token tweaks. That's why I started out on the Leave side about 3 years ago, moved to Remain in the last 12 months, and now I don't think it'll matter either way as there's no political will to *really* change anything. The EU are quite happy as things stand, our government system is broken because Corbyn is the worst Labour leader in my lifetime, and no-one really wants to drag things out any longer than they have to. That's not apathy, that's the real world. People are proclaiming these great changes, on both sides of the argument, when in reality great changes are not only politically impossible but also do not really benefit anyone. The people of this country cannot get their head around the fact that we need to massively cut spending to reduce our debt. You really think they're capable of deciphering, much less arguing the pros and cons, of the TTIP? I don't. The public as a rule are stupid, hence them believing half the spin on both sides of the EU argument.

I'm really not apathetic, I have incredibly passionate views when it comes to UK politics. However, in this case I can't see HOW anything would change! We need immigration levels where they are, if not higher. We'd need to follow EU rules to trade anyway. We'll still end up with the TTIP. We'll end up in the exact same place, just with no seat at the table and billions of pounds in lawyer fees down. Remind me again why we should leave?

We will have TTIP whether we stay or go. No reasonable person can possibly expect otherwise. The more I think about this whole thing, the more convinced I am that absolutely nothing will change regardless of the outcome. However, if we do vote to leave I'm going to start practicing my "I told you so!" speech.

Not just you.

ROI to get smashed

Also, the new stamp duty on BTLs will do far more for the housing market than a few thousand immigrants ever will.

No, but they do point forwards so they catch cars driving past them. Remove the front plate, and you instantly remove that ability.

Disagree. UK politics relies massively on a strong opposition, and a weak one does no-one any favours at all. Look at what New Labour got away with, and look at how stringent the Tories are being on cuts right now. Without that opposition, bad things happen. Both Corbyn and Trump appeal to those who have no real understanding of how the world works, they just want something different. That different isn't actually a good thing though...

Corbyn is the most useless opposition leader since Iain Duncan Smith. He was a protest vote from the extreme Left Labour fan club, who felt that the only way to win an election was by being the polar opposite of the winners. Great in theory, less great when you realise that the very reason they lost is because no-one* wants that kind of socialist nonsense any more. *well, clearly some people do, but they're a bit loonie anyway.

It's not that important, not really. Nothing will change whichever way the vote goes, nothing of consequence anyway.

No chance. If my car gets nicked, I want as many ways of it being pinged up on ANPR as possible. This is why no-one takes these online petition things seriously. Do we really want our politicians wasting their time over trivial stuff like this?? I certainly don't.

It's been acceptable to me, right up to today and hopefully beyond.

Two years ago??!! Good god man, with the state of the roads in Cambs you should be having it done about every six months max.

We can't cap EU immigration. We can cap non-EU immigration. We could halve the net migration to this country overnight if we wanted to, but we don't want to do that. Migration is a tiny, tiny fraction of the problems we have in this country. It's almost non-existent in terms of importance.

Apples and oranges. The TT has really sharp brakes too, but that's a bad thing as is light steering! Feedback is everything in sports cars. You really need to get the geo checked.

The Remain campaign bring up something easy to understand that may have been partially funded by people with a vested interest in staying, and it's the end of the world. The Leave campaign bring up something easy to understand that may have been partially funded by people with a vested interest in leaving, and it's the end of the world. Honestly, the hypocrisy is astounding. EVERYTHING is biased to some extent. Hell, I take my personal viewpoint simply because if we leave it will directly affect me in my pocket, so why should anyone else be any different? You're not exactly going to bit the hand that feeds you What's important is that there is good info from *both* sides, it's just picking out the wheat from the chaff. To simply dismiss anything because it comes from an opposing view is foolish in the extreme.

Actually, it's very likely to be 90% of the OPs problem (along with the tyre pressures).

That said, my old roadster was setup the same way and felt fine when I vmaxed it at 137mph indicated.

Amen brother!

FINALLY got home at 1am last night, after the 7 hour delay at the Eurotunnel! Man, that wasn't fun, especially as I've come down with merguez belly yesterday... Anyway, what a race! Safety car was out for too long at the start, but then it just got better and better. I doubt I'll ever see a win like that at LM in my lifetime ever again, and whilst it's gutting for Toyota I cheered like a crazy man when Jani went through on the pit straight So much great racing throughout the field, delighted for the Risi car in GTP as second is a magnificent achievement for them. It was brilliant, absolutely brilliant. Roll on next year.

No-one has mentioned geo yet, which is arguably the biggest thing that will change how the car feels at ALL speeds and in all conditions. You can set your car up for cornering (which loses straight-line stability), straight lines (which blunts cornering), or a bit of both (which compromises both). There's no 'perfect' solution, it just depends on what you want the car to feel like. Personally I prefer cornering ability, but there's no harm in having it set up to the alternative.

I would, but I'm going down tomorrow. Currently sat in a pub enjoying the first of many beers this week
