We were watching one doing some sneaky test laps at the Nurburgring a couple of weeks ago. Looked and sounded awsome heading down the hill to Pflanzgarten. I certainly wouldn't say no 8)

Hmm, it's an 06 plate, and its a Romsey phone number. I think this has already gone to Steve @ allvehicles.

:shock: :shock: :shock: :P

The Trophy is excellent there, last weekend it just felt perfectly balanced and stable, with loads of grip and I was putting in some pretty quick laps. I would recommend an upgrade from the standard brakes as on a 9-10 minute lap they will get quite warm. I ran the PF97's last weekend and...

In the Trophy. You wouldn't get me on a bike around there, even more so now having come across the scene of a serious biker accident this weekend on one lap. No I just launched the car off a kerb onto two wheels, putting Day who was in the passenger seat what must have been a foot or so in...

The best trip yet I'd say! Accomodation was fantastic, weather was great and very hot for October, laps were the best I'd ever driven too. Some bad accidents which i think gave everyone a sobering reminder of the dangers, and some expensive damage to some nice cars (none of ours...

Hi ! :lol: Have I missed much?

Those harnesses look familiar, good choice ;)

LOL, I think he was taking the piss. Basically saying there will always be a newer and better (arguably) model on the horizon, so be happy with whatever you have and enjoy it.

^^ Agreed Welcome to the site :D

Welcome to the site Mike. Post some pics of your 172 :D It depends what you want to do to the car really, so its difficult to advise. Lots of people replace the standard 172 wheels, Speedline Turini's like the 172 Cup and Trophy have are popular choices and from a looks point of view...

Yeah, this is a problem a few people have had. It seems to be on certain browsers, Safari on the Mac, and some versions of IE7 beta. I am considering rebuilding the forum in the new year, but until then i'm afraid i can only suggest trying another browser, or sending me the info and i'll...

What made the guy absolutely convinced that I deliberately went out of my way to delete his car from the garage I dont know. I barely ever look in the garage, it was just a nice feature i added back when i built the forum. I dont know him, have never met him so have absolutely no personal...

Oh well, more abusive PM's.. It's people like this that make me wonder why I bother sometimes. Goodbye CUP.

CUP will you get off your high horse and shut the fuck up. I have not deleted anything from the garage, now stop being an idiot. You say your car has gone, so I have done my best to find out what has happened, and when asking for info from you, you just send back useless garbage that is of...

LOL :lol:

Sorted :D

You dont need a PayPal account to buy the stickers, PayPal is just used to process the payment. When you Proceed to Checkout, if you get the screen asking you to log into your PayPal account, you should see it also says 'Don't have a PayPal account? Click here' If you click that it will...

LOL! love the avatar Steve :P 3 stars is as high as you get unless you are a moderator or site admin. I'm thinking of having a 'Moderator Idol' competition to recruit another moderator or two (Both myself and Day have other commitments which means we cant always be on here), so that's...

Doh! Too slow :(

Silver, black or an anthracite colour would be ok i'd say. I painted the calipers on my old 172 silver as they'd started to get a bit rusty looking and they did look good, subtle but effective. The calipers on my Trophy are ok at the moment so i wouldn't bother, but if i do in the future id...

A colleague of mine spotted a Trophy in the visitors parking outside Hursley House (IBM) near Winchester this morning. Reg possibly WN55 *** Went to grab a photo at lunch but it had gone. Anyone off here?

No, they dont squeak at all really, maybe a tiny bit with light braking at low speeds, but you can only really hear that if you have the windows open.

Having got to the end of my DS2500's which i've been very pleased with, i've just ordered a set of Pagid RS4-2's (Blues) to try next. I want to see where they fit in between the DS2500's and the PF97's and then i'll know which pad to stay with in the future.

Good to hear! Top service from Mike as always. :D

Tell me about it :shock: I'm planning a new addition to the shop: :lol:

PMSL! Nice one Steve :lol:

Nooooo!!! :cry: :cry:

LOL, please tell me if i do, so I can shoot myself before i start signing up to every other car forum on the internet. No, the 197s are quick, having driven one at brands with 182's around there was nothing in it really for straight line speed. They dont feel as fast but no doubting they are...

A small selection of the pics i took today at the F1 Testing at Silverstone. http://crowspeed.net/photos/f1testing/album Was good to see some of you there, and big thanks to Auds for her amazing blagging skills :lol:
