What car was it?
56 plate would NOT be the Fatboy

Currently at Prodrive and this car now resides in the heritage centre
Recently undergone a full ground up restoration costin £120000 and part of the remit was to make the car road legal.
It is also the first car Prodrive developed in 1997under WRC regulations
Stunning in the flesh

Once a year for a biggy Dave, keeps it special - it's also a tad expensive for people who may be struggling in the current climate.
Going back to the same venue is risky if you ask me, voted to reflect this
About £400 all in for fuel, food and accomadation for Imy and me, just over 1000kms
Once a year north and once a year borders (sept maybe)
Shell in Castle Douglas could be utilised to good effect as roads like the Devils Beeftub, Crawick rd, Gelston to Kirkcudbright and the road around the Machers are all within pissing distance of Castle Douglas.
Just mt £4.60 worth

Pondering our Tesco breakfast gay-off, the cup holder, TWO electric windows and a poofy alarm system makes you unquestionably Mr Half Ar$ed Tried To Be Stripped Out Gaylord 2010.
I rest my case.
The alarm is a mandatory item staying in Beirut, so i get a not proven on that one
Guilty as charged on the 2 electric windows although.

Bit below the belt that.
In one of the clips on YouTube the file is of a passenger riding in a blue newage, and I think, by the shape of the scoop, it is a bugeye. Scoobzie/Diablo/RACERX drives a blue bugeye. The driver in the clip isn't wearing gloves and it looks more like a spirited run out in the hills than a joyride in a nicked motor.
I just can't help thinking that there is something more to this than just some prat posting links he randomly found on YouTube.
Where is Milton by the way??
Possilpark.

Grant fantastic videos m8 truly superb
Would love to see the drive by video!! at the bridge
The drive by and the run after the bridge stop will be next to finish editing and up load.
Final one will be the run down to the Falls of Shin, unfortunatly/fortunatly the camera was not recording at the time of its demise so i will never know who ran over it and sent it to the camera valhalla

Hello Grant.
Is that a cup holder in your car?
If i am gay for having a cup holder then you must be gayer than Rikki Martin, Gaham Norton and a bottle of lubricant for your heating system
Cracking pictures though

where did the ecu come from....uk, japan, other?

Fair one, I knew that he was complaining about them taking a lot of time to upload, I thought that it would be up already... Firgured that there may have been a problem with it...
Oh, and yer damn tooting... I'm almost worried about it...
Original file was 5gb in 720HD.
Google video stopped uploads last year so i had to look for plan B
Have resorted to splitting it into 3 parts and putting it on Tubeface, last part uploading as i type. All being well we should have the full run from Lochcarron to the summit in a few hrs.
Part 1 is on Youbook just now but not public and sadly they have butchered the quality
Think i have enough raw audio and matching footage for another 2 "episodes" at 20 min roughly each. Day 2 leaving Ullapool and the run after the photostop, so all being well i hope to have these up within the week if not then early next.
Eventually will have all in 1 hr long video in super HD with fannytastic sound
I have a donkey to visit this weekend so bear with me
EEEEE OOOOOOO
-
On its way to Google video before the night is out

Cracking pics cal
May borrow one or two for a video

Best weekend i have had behind the wheel in any vehicle in a very long time
Gratitude to Dave and al for the sterling preperation work that went into making a fantastic weekend even more fantastic
Molly also thanks you, EEEEEE OOOOOOOO
Got to be same again next year
Managed to capture about 30 gig of footage so will sift through the literally hours of stuff over the next day or 2 and take it from there.
Banana never missed a beat all weekend and it answered every question it was asked with a very positive answer. She still goes well on the 95 ron map and at one point i had to switch the boost controller off on the Applecross rd as 1.4bar is way to much for a road like that
Great to meet some old faces and some new ones too
-
Was thinking of doing this run but didnt get the clutch,brakes and NOS sorted in time. Looks like everyone had a great time, and as you said, the roads up there are superb with views and scenery to match
Marty.
Marty, you would have loved that outing this weekend
Hopefully see you at the next one in the batmobile
-
Thing is, you dont need to achieve any kind of speed to get your kicks off that road. Most fun around the national speed limit i have had behind the wheel in a long time.
More fun tomorrow apparantly but tonight we have taken over Ullapool with great fury and furious anger
-
Absoloute pleasure to pay my road tax this year after going over that road in the Banana
-
Steak, well done
That is all

Yup i think it was yesterday a grey classic 'booting' it up through the woods at cartland bridge hotel towards carluke nearlt took the nose of my wifes car, nice.
There are a few special people
Thats special as in minibus trip trip to the beach with a bib and headbrace on special and not Carlsberg special.
Tw@t in P1 with Lexus lights and reg ends in BHP, you get my vote for the sheer style that you joined the M73 slip road from the outside lane just 1 inch prior to the grass verge that seperates the 2 motorways, the way you cut up a 40 tonne truck was a joy to behold and quite simply the way you scraped your exhaust along that Mini's front bumper was a sight i am glad i witnessed as i never knew people could take risks like that in such a nice* car.
*nice as i blind man on acid shopped at Halfords when they were low on stock
If my s****hole Sprinter went faster than 65mph i would have fecking stopped you and throttled you till you turned the same colour as your Barry White mobile

Yeah sorry for the stalking thing but this was too serious to joke about.
-
2 Black cars outside your gaff today
1 Audi TDi and a Mondeo, which is the new one
-
Late April fool's maybe
-
Yeah and Burger King will be in touch sometime soon

Can confirm the one that Grant has is 'quite' good
If i recall, big burgy was able to lift my car up when attached!
Grant, what happened to the vids you took that day?
Still on my laptop till i get some more footage

I've got the first one on that page, superb mount! I use it for my dslr and it's rock solid.
Got that one as well
Works well at silly speeds
