  1. De-Tangoed RB320 stick Colin McRae livery on it and call it the CMR320 No seriously, Black Hawkeye STi PPP with every prodrive goodie slapped on it and give it a touch of McRae'ness.. the RB320 is a great machine! Or go down to the prodrive factory and get them to build me a P2
  2. Looks like around about 470miles give or take... From Lanark to Banbury using planned route..
  3. Sure I've seen photos of the car on here.. T?ANY plate was dark and raining but think it was Silver Blobeye at around 5:30pm heading west bound into Elgin...
  4. Stop the mods I wanna get off!! My last tank was just over 20mpg I'm sure I used to get just over 25mpg when I first got the car... Although in fairness it doesn't seem to make much difference for me how I drive the car.. I know that makes no sense, but it's probably because when I go out for a run, the longer journey does it a lot of good despite using more fuel than shorter journeies to work and back... Tend to get aroudn 260miles before the wee light comes on just now... P.s. Hoping to put together a MPG display on the center console later this year... is that wise!!
  5. Woah! Never had death threats address to me through forums... (A colleage of mine did once and they weren't working on the forums he just owned the site).. Had plenty of folk threatening law suits and stuff though... Never came to anything... Forums are a pig to keep a hold off.. They are great for a small community but as it gains popularity peopel filter in from all corners and sooner or later it becomes a full time job trust me!.. I've had my share of 36+hr days keeping things under control... Won't be playing that game again any time soon... Learnt to turn my back on most of it... In saying that it can also be good fun!
  6. heh! yeah When I first heard about the idea thought way cool! quick trip down teh M6... Nope... The router is taking in the sights! I don't mimd too much given the event.. But a schedule for the day may need to be worked out.. Esp at 60mph leaving at 10am with I imagine a couple stops along the way...
  7. Glad to hear you got things sorted! Any chance you could post up the Suspension configuration? (Or PM me with them ) Dare I say it I've been working on my own configuration based on what I got done last year and what the prodrive spec really is.. Ideally looking for something in between. I need to take a good look at the tyre wear on each of the tyres (on a not so cold day) and decide how far to pull the camber in without harming tyre wear too much.. Hoping to get mine redone this year now that I'm more used to the car and want to get the most out of it! I can actually "feel" that it's off balance just now... Just dont ask me to take a left hand bend...
  8. Nice one! Just saw SusieB from the list down the side: Cant say the same will be done with the My08...
  9. Good on ya mate! A lot of work going into this! I'd be happy to have a "Powered by V-power" logo on the car if it helps!
  10. Just a thought... what about making sure the local Shell stations (Lanark/Banbury/somewhere in the middle) have extra suppliy of V-Power for that weekend... Or better yet get a couple tankers to follow us...
  11. Cool! that was only a few months ago and I can't believe how much more agressive my car looks at the front now.. Silver grills now sprayed black, added front splitter and STi lights.. Would be nice if we could somehow broadcast songs to all the cars in the convoy so they are all playing the same tune at the same time!
  12. Didn't get an email but it seems they are advertising on the forum directly instead of keeping it to banners.. http://forums.sidc.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=110633 Personally I don't appreciate getting emailed stuff like that when I haven't asked for it! Besides.. i prefer the dials on the dash.. Now a LCD display on the center console showing telemetry on the other hand.... my next project....
  13. That's nuts!
  14. Geez... Just noticed something... The area code for Lanark is 01 555 heh... nice!
  15. Dont worry it stopped a couple hours ago... Still lying around though, may get a safe play tomorrow morning..
  16. You think they'll have enough spaces!!! best phone ahead and get them to clear the area, for the scoobies are coming to town! WooT! Ahh sod it.. The'll hear us from Lanark! Here's an idea.. how about a raffle to guess the number of cars that'll turn up at prodrive!
  17. Definately a good half inch out this way! (*coughs*)
  18. Gawd knows where it came from but just looked outside and there's a definate layer of white stuff all around!! Seems to have come on all of a sudden! Maybe it's about time I took the front splitter off the car, otherwise I'll be ploughing the road at 6:30am tomorrow...
  19. Good work guys! Already added a link from my own site And considering making up the big sticker for across my bonnet over for the snowman rally weekend in inverness in february to try and promote the event! Had the Snowman Rally logo on the bonnet last year and had wee kids walking past asking if it was a real rally car w00t!! So the sticker will certainly attract attention! (just a pain to polish the marks out after removing it..)
  20. That's nae good mate! Definately a fan of the foresters!.. No shame in a Legacy though!! Good luck with it! Oh and, yeah... Definately the best colour you got there! C'Mon the red Soobies!!
  21. FYI - Keith station was 109.9 for V today... Could be wrong but I think IanC wen't past when I was filing up 3:40pm. Got a beep from a silver hawkeye wagon anyway
  22. heh! I said similar words to those before.. BTW - I know you won't need the help but if you need an extra pair of hands at anypoint for that site gimme a shout.. More than happy to help lend a hand.. P.s. THis is going to a massive event! Hope all goes well!
  23. That's odd! I've seen a bugeye converted to a blobeye before.. but this is new!.. Prefer the hawkeye front end myself...
  24. Nice too see the update.. Even better to see some of the future plans for the foundation!
