Re: The Music Thread

(She’s good, but also) really interesting insight into why songs from different regions sound so different (and are so instantly evocative of their region). Very 8-)

Re: Decent car YouTubes

My order would be

M3 (if manuel)
RS4
C63
ISF

And - as some connoisseur has already pointed out in the comments - shame they didn’t include a VXR8.

Re: Elon Musk/Tesla

And it dropped into the $112's today. So that is now less than half of the $225.64 peak. Awesume.

(And I just noticed Tesla dropped > 20% this week too).

Re: Teh Spotted Thread

Someone just posted on the Loltus forum as they are looking at purchasing this car.

Which lead to a sharing of this vid.

This is my new most hated mod..... we really need a vomit emoji :(

Re: Your fleet running reports

Nice. 8-) I wasn’t aware the OEM mirrors were crap. Assume @Mito Man and his dad know of this setup?

Although…. upgrades before you’ve shared an e-start vid? What’s this place coming to? :(

Re: NC500 and Euro Trip assistance needed


I don't think it matters a great deal what car you do it in. I think I might have gone round it a bit too quickly - I went for the drive more than the scenery but I didn't allocate a lot of time to stopping and seeing stuff.


This is probably a fundamental question actually.... if your primary ...

Re: NC500 and Euro Trip assistance needed

No time to respond properly just now, but
1. Jobbo's post from 2025 NC500 in 3 days would be a good starting point
b. @scotta is currently on a European tour and may have some good up-to-date guidance

It was a really good read.


Steve Carter (was HighlandRampage on twitter). Gordon Murray has a house close to his.

Re: Harry’s Garage

Seems to go pretty well. I really don't like the wheels on the test car - those on the configurator look way better. Harry very nearly clips the front splitter at 13mins just transitioning from the gravel part of his drive to tarmac.

Gear lever looks a little too high, but I think it's been set ...
