I think you've identified a gap in the market for some enterprising garage owner there as I can't think of anyone now that JVS have gone!! Dave

Sounds like someones winding you up, or you're winding us up.... You'd be better selling the sti9 and buying this.... http://www.subaru.me.uk/gtr

Welcome to the asylum.

Actually you're right Pete, it's impossible to judge till you see it properly in the flesh. Hopefully they'll produce a FU460 version too !

Not had a chance to check prices yet, how much are you after for them ? (if cal doesn't want them of course ) Dave

I love my P1 and have never been tempted by the newer shaped imprezas to be honest, but the latest might just tempt me... http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/previews/5791...mpreza_sti.html I'm sure you've all seen it already, but I have to say I really like it. Where do I sign ?? :-) Dave

All the 'unpaid' entries above are in the order that email/PM's arrived in but actual payments will win me over every time !! Looking good for a great day of multi-marque racing ! We've got entries from drivers of.. Subaru Impreza Subaru Legacy Noble M12 Honda VFR 900 Peugeot 306 !! Lotus Elise Nissan 350Z Ford RS TVR Ferrari Porsche Mitsibishi EVO And a few others I'm sure.. Can't wait to work out the points !!! If you haven't already listed your allegiance (ie your car type) please add it so I can start sorting the teams out etc. Ta Dave

Scoobynet..... bull...... now there's 2 words that don't usually go together !!!!!

I'll probably be heading down again this year too. See if any of these scooby things can get close to the GTR boys this year

... back on topic.... Rosyth - Zeebruge would def be the way to go Dave. Worth checking out prices, as it'll save you a fair whack in petrol costs as well as the mileage/hassle. Nice boat too Dave

Nah, purple...

Might be interested in these for my track wheels. Let me check new prices and I'll come back to you.. Dave

<< top car top bloke surely some1 wants this!!! >> I'll second that...... well the bit about the car anyway

Got everything except the Exige too. In fact my top count on one card is now 16 (BMW Z4 3.0) !! At least last year the cards had some use and you could give them to the local kids to play top trumps ! This year they're useless - don't even have car stats on them . Well, the chances are that the Exige has only been released recently, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and stocking up before the end date. Someone has to win !!

Got 4 more verbal comitments today from some Porsche owners, so we're getting pretty close to full now. Ask your mates though, as it's not full till I get the deposits from all 32 !

Thanks Gordy, I'll add him as a 'maybe' below then... To recap for any new viewers... Karting @ Raceland (near Haddington, East Lothian) on Saturday 23rd July at 3:30pm. 32 drivers wil be competing and I'm still hoping to run it as an inter-marque type event if we can get a few more owners from different car clubs signed up.

Standard fit tyres on a P1 are 205/45/17 so you should be fine with 215/45/17's. When compared to the standard 205/50/16's these 2 sizes give an overall diameter increase of 0.8% and 2.3% respectively. It's generally recommended to say below 2.5% difference overall. In case you think I'm really sad and worked out all these on my calculator, take a look here .... http://www.tyresave.co.uk/tyresize.html Dave

Any more takers??
