On another note, I drove the car tonight and all is feeling good, no issues to report at all.

Sounded like a great day mate. How'd you do against the RS4???

He came out of the pits 2 or 3 cars behind I could see him on our formation laps, but when we could plant it as the instructor car peeled into the pits, he never got close! :p

Was a brilliant day mate. Track is a fitting home for these cars, they come alive at speed ;)

That's good to hear actually lol. I was thinkin of getting one this year but if it can't even keep up with an old mk1 Leon with fwd and over 100bhp less then it can gtf lol.

Clean.

So my garden hosepipe at mine has broken so I had to ask, well tell :cartman: D.K I'm going to have to go round his and get my car washed! :whistle:

First we went over to see Mark at WheelPower near Darren so he could get 2 new Vredestein's and I must say, I am VERY impressed with them. Mark really knows his stuff and currently puts them at the top of the pile in terms of options for tuned LCR's. So if Darren gets on well with these, I will be getting them next as I've heard it's a step up in wet and dry conditions from my Toyo's..

So with that done it was back to Darren's and time to clean my car. Had a bit of quick detailer and Werkstatt product used and came up pretty well. Was nice to get the car washed down after Brands Hatch.

Big thanks to Darren for helping me out and you do learn about car cleaning care the more you talk to him! I'm going to have a spend up of detailing products before Players' car show comes around in September as TED Tuning and a few others are planning a convoy over there.. [B)]

Oh and I also noticed a tiny singe mark above the exhaust tip on the bumper... seems I was right about some flame action at Brands from the car as there is evidence on the rear bumper...

:rolleyes:

It's dangerous speaking with Darren as he gets you into all this detailing malarkey ;) car scrubbing up well. Agree about the tyres, might have to put them in the list of options for next time round

Been running the Vreds for a few years now and they are awesome, they handled the track well and didnt even wear too much when on it (Either that or i wasnt trying hard enough)
Didnt realise you had the huge AMD sticker on yours too

Haha, it is, but the products he uses certainly do the job very well! Going to scrub it up for Players show mate so you'll have to get yours sorted for that day too :D

Vred's get serious reviews mate, everyone on all the major car clubs really rate them, as per Ronin below, lol..

Awesome, good to know mate :D

Think I'll definitely be trying these out next time now. Not read a bad word as yet..

The big stickers had to go on at Brands as we were out on track in AmD's hired out session so we had to represent them.. They will come off when I can be bothered, lol.
