That sounds good to me for a blast in the mighty 400

Now there's an idea

Let's take it out to a Welsh back road. Poesy doesn't use his Evo during the week anyway. We need to wash it afterwards though so he doesn't notice

I like the sounds of that

Plus, it's white, so the right recce car colour.

I'll fly a set of gravel tyres in from here.

If you bring a drill and some screws to mount the tripmeter in the dashboard

Well, Poesy already kindly put competition harnasses in, so we don't need those anymore.

You think we need to put a temp fire-extinguisher ?

No need Sandy
Just want to drive her not set fire to it
But if it makes it feel more rally ish you can put one in

Maybe bring a Stanley knife so we can take the carpets out and he doesn't notice the muddy marks of the shoes...

this sounds like fun, count me in

So who will be copilot ?

Or shall we take a slightly less formal approach and go 3 of us in the car ? I think the middle spot of hear rear seats is still useable

NOT ME!!! no way with you in a 400

Mine is nearly a 400 and you came with me around Spa...

(You DID have sweaty hands though afterwards)(yuk).

i think "we both" had sweaty hands after a certain corner

After being in Poesy car on a launch the old 380 couldnt touch it mate

I had no sweaty hands at all. Nicely depressed the clutch so we'd roll into the grass backwards and avoid being T-bones by the Caterham and Porker we overtook 3 corners earlier.

Still managed to restart the car and make it back on the track before they arrived ... TOASTED !

PS: We didn't launch it. I never launch cars in fact.

Although I do try to make up some time after I started rolling...

That being said, I'd really like to get the 9 on a RR now. When it's cold like this (and the boost needle swings towards 1.8-1.9 bar...), this thing REALLY goes fast.

Be nice to see what power it makes and torque boosting to them levels,and she's holding together

there are so many stories etc etc about turning the boost up to increase torque/power-most tuners say that the ARP bolts are "not" neccesary??

Fook knows but by the sounds of it your "testing" well

Well, I am holding off a bit when I see it's gonna swing beyond 1.6 again.

But considering it also runs on 100Ron, I think the car does well.

Testing the handling at the moment. Had plenty of fresh snow and starting to find it's really great at going slightly sideways in long corners and then just keeping it like that accelerating the whole way through

Need some further testing though. Hence why we need to borrow Poesy's car

Not sure he's still gonna offer us a cup of tea after we washed it though

THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT PICS/VIDEO

If it keeps snowing, I plan to go out with 'arri this weekend and get some filming done

I have a young child that would be delighted to help. Something about a fee, she said....

She wanna come to Wales too ?

Maybe we could make it a combined trip and see how the AST's are on gravel...

We best check they both have mud flaps then mate.
We dont want any of the gravel stone chips...

No, they're very hard to wash off indeed.

Poesy has mudlaps already. Don't think Fraser has any yet.

Shall we order a pair of Scott Lowe carbon ones for the V1-V2 T25 ?

I think i'll manage just fine myself folks

Gota get it all shiney for the mlr meet next saturday spikey. Or could just take it along the way it is so that when they take the piss outa the 400 i'll can just laugh and say "whatever".

Doesn't look like he wants us to wash his car, Gazman...
