Did you do it by hand or with a machine polisher?

I'd be up for that if we get enough people. Any one else interested in the Glasgow area? A good polisher is about £175 eg. Metabo PE12-175 (with 3 yr warranty if registered). I don't know how you'd work it - may be people buy their own polish and foam pads?

I've not got one yet, but my car is really in need of a good polish too. I really want to buy a polisher and have been looking at the Metabo one. The wife says I'm on a red card and can't spend anymore money for a while Oh well.

Really sorry to hear that mate. I'm glad you are ok, if still a bit shocked and sore. Some of these people (is that the right word?), don't think at all. Near enough attempted murder on their hands. Hope you have a quick recovery.

Nice job mate - car looks great. A bit of hard work and I bet you slept well after doin all that!

I hope you are ok Welsho... The worst thing is not knowing... I'm gonna have to get me one of those alert devices when I can afford it. I only have a GPS camera database

Emailed ya.... You are a gentleman and a scholar

Hiya and welcome

I phoned Scottish Subaru Spares in Paisley today as I'm looking for a part. The guys there were very helpful and said they would put the bit aside, and they were open till 5pm. My wife kindly travelled over from the north side of Glasgow to pick it up, but I got a call from her at 4:30pm, it was all locked up and closed. She wasn't a happy bunny at all. I'm sure they had good reason for shutting up early as they new she was coming over. I expect it must've been some kind of emergency, either that or they all went home early via the ice cream van on this lovely hot sunny day I'm going to wave the peace flag at the Mrs.....

£15 for spectators? That's gonna be a little steep for me to convince the Mrs to come. Are you sure thats not £15 for going on the track? I tried phoning Crail Raceway to confirm prices, but just got an answerphone. Latest weather forecast: http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=2369

Kenny - thanks for the info mate. I'll see what the family want to do, and if the weather is good i'll maybe see some of you up there (forecast is sunny intervals at the moment).

What time is the start and what do you have to do if you want to take your car on? I looked at the crail website and can't find any info. Is it a suitable family event? How much does it cost? If I can make it it will probably be about 1:30pm and not sure if it's worth it at that time?

2 trucks on an 1/8th mile Drag strip. Watch this with your speakers turned up loud for full effect. I like the little flashes of flames that come out of the exhaust. http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1f7ff00...8dc009eb91b.htm I heard Andy.F is going to be putting one of these engines in his drag machine

What time does it start? I really would love to see you flying down the 1/4 mile..... Is the race car the white one? (the blue one is the rocket ship?)

mmm... I am a badger. I hope Captain Rex isn't going to badger-me sensless. Locking the doors now....

Love the wagon mate - V Tidy. Interior is superb. I missed the last Glasgow run. Hopefully the next one tho. I've got a few mods on mine and it has been well worth it

Yet another satisfied customer at Greers

Good advice Nanaki Other things can help get you slightly closer to your estimated connection speed, such as good quality ADSL filter(s), making sure your router is plugged into the main BT phone point in the house (eg no extensions, try plugging in direct into the BT test socket), check a speed test on another PC/laptop plugged into your router to rule out software/hardware problems, and the dreaded spyware. Mods shouldn't this thread be moved to off topic? Sorry guys, but I hate reading/posting about work when I want to breath fresh V-power vapours......

Sounds like you are currently on an ADSL product (Max 2Mbps) rather than an ADSL Max product (Max 8Mbps). These figures are dependant on line quality and distance from the exchange. For a rough prediction of estimated speeds on ADSL & ADSL Max products - http://www.btwholesale.com/getbroadband and stick in ur number on the right-hand-side. Most service providers use bandwidth throttling at peak times, so it may be this slowing you down. (Eg, Virgin are 4pm to midnight throttling). No comment on AOL It is worth investigating other packages if you are on an ADSL product, but you may not get full estimated speed as it depends on line quality all the way from the exchange to your router.

pm'd ya Welso. Squirell - Badgers in the combustion chamber have a NOS like cooling effect, but I didn't know about kittens. Even if the Higgy could get a bundle more BHP out of it, do you think he would be crazy enough to try? Yes, I thought so too. Over 500bhp out of a WRX - pure mental. Well done mate!

Wow... Nice one mate. Bet you enjoyed the journey back home. That's the best bit after a mapping session with Andy F! I still can't believe I'm doing more MPG after I got mine mapped for the first time. All hail Andy F.....

I was looking for a Badger buster.... Anyone???? Welcome and enjoy the community

I'm lovin it. Not in the physical sense of course

I have a MY98, and I was recommended (By Oilman) Silkolene ProS 10W50. I use it for fast road use. Managed to get a group buy somewhere. Check with someone who knows (not me) and will ask you about your car and how you drive.

welcome to the forums mate.
