  2. If it's noise you're after, then you won't do better than a set of decats. Will make far more of a difference than altering the intake will IMHO.

    a bit confused!

    Can you go and tell everyone on the 911 forums that as well please?
  4. You really, really don't want to know the reason why I don't ever want to camp at Houx.
  5. Can't think of a worse campsite than Houx if I'm honest. I'll either be going with Speedchills, camping at my regular chateau in Sille le Phillipe, or I may just sleep in the car and do a very brief weekend on the cheap. Can't make my mind up at the mo!
  6. Staying at home If you book a hotel NOW you might be okay, but you'll miss the atmosphere. Camp either at the circuit or at one of the many chateaus around LM itself.
  7. Frickin' hell mate, that must've been an absolute nightmare for you, that's a really long time to be stuck down with pain like that. Fingers crossed for you. hope the op is a complete success
  8. Toyota (incl Nakajima) have been in to see the Deltawing crew to apologise. Top marks, real sportsmanship There was a nice press conference from the team this morning with all the drivers and the designer, all seemed pretty upbeat despite everything that happened. Franchitti understandably peeved that despite him doing more testing of the car than anyone, he didn't get a chance to race it.
  9. You're not kidding, if you're anything like me you've been eagerly looking out the window and desperate to go for a drive, which isn't helped by hearing performance cars drive past: There's an original Mini, mk2 vaguely rally spec Escort, classic Impreza tubby and a silver 350 down my road alone, I'm sure they're driving past on purpose! What did you do to your elbow to need surgery matey?
  10. High five, fellow non-driver post-surgery!
  11. You're miles off the pace if you think a) outside of F1, any driver would knowingly punt another driver off the track, especially one he's not even directly racing, and that the Deltawing was getting more attention than the Toyota hybrids. This isn't a specific Jap-only race, this is LM and you'd probably have found the two companies wanting to help each other in a Euro and US dominated race. Besides, the Nissan stuff was limited to the engine and some massive sponsorship: This is a Highcroft car, not a Nissan one.
  12. You're not serious? Nakajima was careless in the extreme and it was 100% his fault, but it really wasn't done on purpose. "Get out of my way, you stupid f*cking tricycle!"

    Oh Nuts!

    Bloody hell, that price has shot up from when I bought mine then

    Oh Nuts!

    8 different types IIRC, and if you take your car to Nissan they can check which one you have and order you one up for the next day or the day after. Cost is about £8, best to get two for that price in case it happens again.
  15. Ox is definitely better than Lennon. Both are better than Milner, who I'd swap for Walcott.
  16. Played a bit of it the other week, it's okay. Well styled, but the action is a bit naff and I don't see myself sticking with it.
  17. And I thought our game would be a damp squib
  18. Indeed, and a boring 0-0 at that. Couldn't care less about England, quicker we get knocked out the quicker we can enjoy some decent football. I see that Woy is starting with Carroll up front and ditching the Ox, to get at Sweden where they are weakest which is in the air. Now, why is he bothering? None of the other big teams in the world (Spain, Germany, Brazil, Holland etc) change how they play regardless of who the opposition is, so why should we? Surely it would be better getting the team used to one way of playing, rather than chopping and changing? All the players in the England team play a fast pressing game for their clubs, so just play the same way rather than banging a ball in over the top after spending 10mins passing it around at the back. I'd much rather we went out in the group stages playing something exciting to watch than stumble out at the semis playing dull football.
  19. The 918 system has nothing to do or in common with the Audi E-Tron tech in the slightest, and the same goes for the Ferrari stuff. Completely different departments, only connection is the mother company. Don't be fooled by any press stuff trying to indicate otherwise
  20. It's not inviting someone in, it's just bloody common sense. This isn't the 60's any more.
  21. It's grown on me, but it's no looker. It's got a 'tache and slitty eyes, which aren't good looks on Italian sports cars. Cabin is quite nice, though.
  22. Maybe the bloke would be better off spending that £2k on some locks for his front door that actually work? Seriously, why you would spend all that money on CCTV and then not even bother to lock your doors is just crazy and asking for trouble. Also, I don't think the reward is legit, that video has been doing the rounds all week and this is the first I've seen mention of either reward, crowbar or toddler.
  23. Offer £50 and work your way up.
  24. They're my favourite kind of fish, y'know. /random
