AAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!!!!

Went to my local Tyre place today as several enthusiastic laps of Knockhill have slaughtered my front tyres,this is understanable and expected.What was not expected was that I had noticed that my rear tyre was a little flat so I asked the bloke to check the valve.He checked the tyre (In my presence) and found that in fact there was a tear in the tyre wall which went right through! So you cant just replace one rear tyre can you?

4 new sodding tyres required at much expense!!!!

total bill for the last month for car only (Brakes,ECU,insurance ,track day + tyres) = 3 friggin grand!!!!!!


I feel sick

Surely someone on here knows where to source cheaper, quality tyres!

That's horrendous m8

I thought I got off to a bad start this week when the back box fell off the wife's mota.
I knew as soon as I took it in to the garage, they were going to tell me about the badly corroded shocks as well! Barstewards!
Only £140, so nowhere near as bad as you Judge.

Good point,well presented Dougie!!

T-uk

if thats all thats stopping you , I 'll lend you my wheels/tyres

Hi T-UK

Why bother swapping wheel's and tyre's just give me your car and then if i do push hard it wont bother me so much

Dougie

T-uk

sure I'll swap your slow *** P1 for my car as long as yours is full of fuel and mine is empty

dougies549

He He He

You know it's only slow due to mods and standard fuel i use , but hey give me time and it will match your dirt bucket nae prob's.

Any way how long have i had mine compaired to you and how much have u spent on it now ???

Just wait till Sam get's his hand's on it.

Any way the P1 deffo has more refinment in it.

Cheers Dougie

T-uk

is that not when you lose the refinement ? , big exhaust, induction changes , a big turbo that a P1 can easily support with it's 8k rev limit .........it is a pity you do not have those big bore headers anymore , they would probably have made the vf28 feel bigger.

I would get in touch with sg72 for a cracking "drivers" set-up IMO

Hi John

Nope sorry M8 will still have all the refinment i need once it's finished.

I ahve always said that i wasn't going to the Levels that you lot want , i am quite happy getting to 350 max if it only does 310 then fine i dont have any thing to prove i just wont a good driver's car with out going to all the expence and hassle that you lot are having.

I can't afford to replace broken iteam's or the such like. I will deffo not be putting on Header's either as i feel there is more hassle with these than there is drivability. :0

But hey that's me that's what i have always said i wanted.

Cheers Dougie
