    Nurburgring Lap

    Was at the 'ring at the weekend, had a fantastic time in the Trophy, definitely the most fun I've had there yet :D Was hugely impressed with the Pagid Blues, they really did give incredible stopping power. Got a clip of the last lap of the day, but wasn't the fastest. My best was a 9:08 with...

    Cutting out when reversing... Idle dodgy...

    Sorry guys, but I've just got a Trophy and it seems to want to cut out all the time. Also takes a tad long to start up in the morning, turns over a couple of seconds longer than I'd think normal. Even once warmed up after a long drive, put it in reverse and start to move back and it'll just...

    Interesting Tyre Review - this month's EVO

    An interesting tyre review in this month's EVO (as well as a 20th birthday special on the Clio sports, with the Williams preferred). The tyre review caught my eye because it featured (an evolution of) a tyre which a few years ago highlighted to me the importance of tyres and the effect they can...

    Mark Fish Suspension - Group Buy

    Spoke to Mark yesterday as i'm keen to purchase some of his stuff in the next couple of months. Whilst i was on the phone i thought it would be best to ask about a group buy - he seemed to think that 10% off would be ok for 10 confirmed orders. But im sure we could get something for 5 as well...

    This months EVO and harry metcalfes trophy...

    Has anyone read this months EVO? In the fast fleet section there is a write on how much all of Harrys cars cost him for servicing etc and apparently he has just had the cambelt done on the Trophy and it cost him £1206.55!?! Apparently more than his 550 Marrenello! He obviously doesnt come on...

    How long will you own your Trophy for?

    So how long do you plan on keeping it (meaning Trophies but anyone is welcome) all being well? A car you're going to keep 'forever'? Keep for a long time? Planning on changing? A stop gap? No idea? I have to say I've thought about changing my car in the recent past but little can get near...

    Latest evo

    Interesting article in the June magazine comparing the 200 cup and the 172 cup; 200 was 1.5 secs a lap quicker due to its "trick front suspension system and brakes" but the 172 was "more fun" ( I paraphrase). I believe Mr Metcalfe, who has some standing within said mag, owns a Trophy; I wonder...

    Fitted the top mounts, camber bolts and strut brace today - geo check tomorrow, had a drive feels pretty good but who can tell on the road, track day on the 24th so that will be a good test.
