Quite literally lol! I have new problems i think i boiled my brake fluid as its yonks old and knackered an existing well worn ball joint! As i now get hard wobble even at low speeds and undee hard braking can feel some like pushing the brake pedal back and the pedals very spongy!

well you were giving it some beans will it feels a lot quicker incar than on vids eh fwn
i was too cautious with the braking for fear of fade, its hard to gauge how much stick to give them really
and some pics of our stand about 1/2 way down here http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?p=19557653 and some pi## taking lower down lol

It annoys me that all the #### takers are vauxhall or vw drivers! When all of my cars would destroy theirs fricken idiots!

A well taken onboard video of a 350z going around the track same time as Will and Frank, can see Will at 9 minutes in, and Frank about 17.

Unfortunately people don't really understand what they're capable of, and the stupidly fast ones don't go to shows! So Micras will never get the respect they deserve... and you can't educate morons either

I started a thread in the national meets section, to get the numbers to make it worth getting a stand

[Smc92]

I cant comment on that thread you started karl until im an official member, ill be paying for membership on payday so ill comment on it then, japfest 1 is quite a long drive for me so it would be really good if we could get an MSC stand, would make it even more worthwhile imo

 

[karlj]

do you want me to add your name to the list?

 

[Smc92]

Yeah please

 

[karlj]

done (Y)

 

[Smc92]

Japfest is too far, castle coombe is like 3.5 to 4 hours drive for me, so im going to have to change my mind on that one, ill definately come to japfest 2 if everyone else is going?
