  1. Using a giant catapult how funny would that be ... or is it just me I laughed at that
  2. 100K is a lot of money to us but in the scheme of things where teams are spending hundreds of millions of pounds its just loose change - all they have to do is sell an f430 thats it compare it to the 10 million mclaren got fined although that was industrial espionage which is worse but 100k isnt a lot to the most successful formula 1 team
  3. 55% ale - thats some funky stuff wonder if its a full body drink
  4. send the bodies into space - some people have done that already and it would be more impressive to watch
  5. how annoyed was rob smedley and it was harsh to take the moment away from massa considering last year at least red bull and mclaren let their drivers race each other
  6. willwoods will go well but i think you can only go as high as 265 but i could be wrong
  7. get yourself some "gt" front struts as they have disc brakes then you can fit some M16 calipers froma 2.8 capri if you want vented discs but you will also need capri hubs It all depends on power etc. for a road car i think the drums a pretty good on the back
  8. I lived in MK last year when on my uni placement working for VW racing, when we need some fab work doing we went to a guy in the same industrial estate as us called C H fabrication - I don't have a number but I have the postcode He modified our VW caddy racer to have a 4 link set up which was made from modifying MK2 escort rally bits and its still going strong.
  9. when I was that age i worked at halfords - which got me a job there and last year I worked in industry as part of my degree working for VW racing UK which was good fun
  10. on the early ones but it was dropped in favour for the GT leaf springs - i think it had something to do with road clearance have a word with Ratman on here - he has A framed his mk1 cortina and its been on the road for a few years now
  11. id agree with stu 105 speed do a 1 peice one which looks sweet

  16. jesus christ thats expensive, I thought the ferry to sweeden would be the worst because of the distance I bet malta was worth it though

  19. why can't people look at the postage of things too, I put my struts on collection only and now the guy is getting on at me because i dont have the time to drive to my parents and back (120 mile round trip) so he can get the couriered
