Subaru Impreza V Volkswagen shootout
scientific steve replied to Flatfire's topic in Scottish Scoobies
was down at the scooby shoot out the other weekend there and seen andys car in action this thing can go stoopid fast in a straight line AND do very well in the corners he was actually leading on the circuit for a while and came 3 over all and was first on the 1/4 mile -
i had a full magnex system on my one and thought it was pretty good but same as dunk i now have a H&S http://www.eclipseracing.co.uk/subaru/suba...hausts_main.asp these systems and parts are pretty good likes []
-
i didnt know that there was anybody else form "up north" going down to this [:S] no matter as i had a cracking day out and had a good few runs down the strip too, didnt fair as well on the circuit though [:|] think i'll be going to this next year too likes, but i doubt it will be as good a weekend as this knockhill on the sat then SSO on the sunday [] almost a carlsberg weekend
-

well i HATE football and my girlfriend is a huge fan (not going to say what team but they are the scots champs again []) but i'll go to the pub and shout when needed when watching a game with her and ny girlfriend HATES my car but enjoys going round knockhill in it at the end of the day it's all about compromise everybody has different things that they'll like and want to do, this is a part of what makes us so appealing to each other, aint it ????? sooooo find a balance, by all means keep the car BUT do something for her too
-

Knockhill 26th May, Saturday 9am to 1pm
scientific steve replied to johns's topic in Scottish Scoobies
Just keep the engine running pal, make it easier to get out the way as she comes hurtling towards you at a fair rate of knots. Don't know who is more nervous about Sat, Imy for her first time out on track in her loverly wee car or me knowing its Imy's first time out on Knockhill in a 290bhp STI RA with nutters like Wilky and co overtaking her at warp factor 15 sideways down Duffes. A plea to all people going on track on Sat morn Please be careful out there as i want her back in one piece, people can be operated on in hospital and new body parts can be farmed in Cambodia but V-Limited's are getting rarer by the day..............................JOKING BABE try and not worry toooo much grant oh and you too imy [] i'm sure everything will go as planned, as long as it stays dry that is [] dunk, get ready with that camera bud as i funcy another 360 [][:|] -
yep, next tyres for me will be a set of the f1's, had them on most of the cars i have had and are a great all rounder
-
theres one or two folk that aint put our names down for this as working offshore we dont know if we can make this or not we dont want to be seen to be putting our names down for every event going and the pulling out at the last hour if here i will be way up for it as i've missed out on the other runs, last one i was on was nov 2005 []
-
nice one good figures too [H]
-
never did get round to taking one in the daytime but you get the idea
-
i've got my up and down pipe done, also have a turbo blanket (just to keep it all nice and tucked up []) the thinking is to get as much of the hot gasses out and flowing out of the zorst and not just sit and build up in the engine bay talked to the chaps at AWD about this, deffo get the stuff wet before putting it on, was told theres and after spray you put on to keep the wrap at it's best for as long as poss, this is the part i cant remember, i dont know if you spary it on when it's still wet or after it's dry i'm sure that someone can point you in the right direction

funny you should say that, last summer was out for a wee play and passed a number of bikers just getting ready to head off from a lay by in one of our great roads a GOOD while later i decided to turn off at a shop or something and the same bikers came thundering up the road, the guy at the front recognises me from before and gives a nod fair play i thought and gives him a wee wave all of out just enjoying the road [H]
-
seen a bit about this guy a wee while ago on scoobynet not good at all [:@] not sure if it's been mentioned in general or not

ROTFLMAO [:'(] Scared? What does this word mean Rich? Is it related to fear, i have also heard this word, but i know not what it means [] ask simmie about his pax with craig at knockers he can vouch on this [:|] ps sorry for the thread hijack
-
Scientific Spooler ? where did that one come from ??? LOL [][] i think it would be a close thing, the lighter car (with me AP 6 pots) SHOULD be better on late braking on the corners just depends on how large me sacks are on the day i suppose []
