TD's look good! I like the purple as well.
We need to pencil a track day in for spring time next year.

Very tempting but haven't got the spare cash! I am off work that week so if I can I'll pop over and say hello!

Changed my Cam Follower today.

Only took 20 minutes like normal and after 10k miles including 2 trackdays, the follower doesn't look bad at all!

Received my Winter tyres off a fellow forum member and got them fitted to the OEM Cupra 18's which I'll be using over the Winter whilst my OZ Ultralegerra's hibernate in the warm garage!

Tyres get the inspection and seal of approval from my resident German quality control expert!

Back from the local tyre place who sorted me out taking my old track beaten tyres off and replacing them with the Vredestein Wintrac Extreme's!

The Vred's look meaty and strangely I'm looking forward to trying them out when the weather gets nasty!

 

[Bignod00]

Just had a phonecall from the Wife to tell me she's just kerbed one of my OZ Ultralegerra's. Trying not to get too wound up but it's proving very hard not to!

 

[ReDBull]

Winter tyres good idea. I'll not mention the curbing....

 

[Bignod00]

Hahahahahhahaha, cheers dude!

Here's the damage the wife caused. Over 30cm of moronic female driving ability.

Gutted!

 

[ReDBull]

That looks painful.

 

[big eck]

Oft. She done a good job of it anyways lol.

 

[kevscupra]

Thanks gents.......she really has done it properly which I still can't quite understand.

Oh well, they'll all be coming off soon for the Winter so may just get them all refurbed. It's all b@stard money though as they need 4 new tyres too!

On the plus side though I'll be rid of the horrendous Falkens finally!
