    Softer Suspension..Would it be faster?

    Just came back from a few days in the Isle of Wight. Took the Trophy (filled with camping stuff) and left the wifes 182 FF at home. Spend most of the week dodging poor road repairs. Sometimes when it 'appears' perfectly flat that can be even worse. Makes me think its too hard for carry good...

    GP moves to Donnington

    What an earth were they thinking it's stone age in comparison to Silverstone, great circuit but the facilities are pretty dire, i actually think it's a ploy to pull the plug on the British GP full stop. What do you guys think

    clio cup racers induction??

    How come the clio cup race cars have the filter bolted straight onto the inlet manifold? Ive seen 4 now and all have this set up. Doesnt this cause heat soak? Has anyone tried this on their Trophy, with what results? Cheers Scott

    Swapping wheels...

    I've been told that it's reasonable to swap the front set of wheels for the back set of wheels in the interest of 'cough' preserving consistent tyre wear. While I appreciate this is potentially a pikey way to go on tyres, it may make some sense as it means you can manage to have 4 newtyres...

    changing dampers

    Have just spoken to Rentech in Portsmouth about my Trophys hard ride. I love the car but using it every day, sometimes its just too hard. They have said that they can remove the pins from the dampers which will make the ride softer, however they have not had any feed back from the few trophys...

    It's great to reminisce......

    Thought I'd visit the site again as I keep seeing someone's Trophy whilst on the train.....brought back memories. It's been almost a year and a half since my Trophy got written off and I've since sold my Focus RS as I got bored of it and got a new toy :twisted: Check out the pics, what...

    TTT - Trophy Track Transformation

    Now I have my Trophy, which I chose because it would be a fast car on track without modification, I realise, that modifying cars is just too much fun to go without, so I will be modifying the Trophy :) Just for a bit of fun, and maybe to make the fun last, and perhaps to help others...

    New 197 Cup

    Now that the 197 Cup has arrived I intend to buy one in the new year. This will mean that my beloved trophy will have to go, as (as much as I have tried) I can't find the funds (of justification) to keep both! So I'm putting him up for sale soon :( . If there is anyone out there who is...
