If you fancy coming down to the area then we often at SWS take out groups of members from other areas and have a long standing regular arrangement with a group from the South East. :thumb: |
Stunning:thumb:

Awesome Ty. Thanks for the pictures. Reminds me of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZ6yr...eature=related
Wish we had roads like that here. :( |
ARAF! Oh how that brings back fond memories.
Great pictures there mate, awsome sights :thumb: |
I was the first to notice that cloth matey, just didn't post ;)
I am sure I was on that road last Sunday on my m'bike. Bit of a fecker going up around that hairpin on a bike! |
How were the PS's now you've got them and the brakes run in?
Your ride height looks spot on btw :thumb: |

The carcass and sidewalls are totally different to a normal road tyre. Did you notice the inside was totally smooth and not rough crosshatched? More like a motorsport tyre.
That makes for a soft wall, so while initial turn-in may be slightly vague, mid corner grip and what happens at the limit is where it's happening. I've just fitted a set and am running slightly higher pressures. This should offset some of the shoulder wear, and reduce vague turn-in Edit: Interesting to see what you make of the coilovers once you're used to them . |

I'm having BC coilovers fitted (the later type with better top mounts) after having the earlier Apex/BC coilovers fitted to the car when I bought it I was a little reluctant to say the least. :nono: After having spoken to a few members with them fitted they all said they are great and they've obviously been improved with better damping and recoil rates plus better top mounts. :) I'm not looking to drop it loads only perhaps around an inch more than the Prodrive springs allow but to stiffen the damping rate so as to make the best use of the uprated front and rear anti roll bars; well that's the theory but what it'll be like in practice remains to be seen. :wonder: |

They certainly are especially that road and a few others around the Brecon Beacons National Park, it's like a real world version of some of the best Forza / Gran Turismo tracks. :D Yes, saving up for coilovers, will be interested in how you rate the new BC. :thumb: |
i love that road, i go up there now and again its a nice road to drive on.

Looked a nice morning out ,not a car in sight
