    Shocking example

    Are you talking about my girlfriends KA?
  2. Instead of new or worn tyres, get tony to do the geometry with "flaming tyres". He needs a challenge
  3. The oil on the head just means it likes you That AC Cobra was beautiful.
  4. She has quite a bite, but never does it viciously. She seems to be trying to smash every glass in the house at the moment though.
  5. Tony just said "I love cats when they're airborn" so here's a few just for you. lots more on my facebook
  6. Well here she is, Kambi. She's a cute little bengal, now nearly 6 months old. Don't ask how much she costs, bengals are fairly obscene to buy. I won't be kicking her, that's for sure! Worth every penny for the stunning markings and the stupid personality.
  7. Nankang NS2 overheat in seconds when pushed then grain. That's a bad choice of tyre. As for the rim, OUCH!
  8. "Open to abuse by those who are wise" - this was my first though... wouldn't it be a shame if I drove over a stinger just as my tyres were near the legal limit. Would they have any comeback?!
  9. I like this one for the fact the SPY hasn't even bothered to turn 180 degrees and check the other side!
  10. The current maximum recommend age is around 6 years.
  11. Were you understeering across the kerbs by any chance? Saw tooths can take chunks out of road tyres!
  12. @ HMS Silverstone (national) is clockwise. There is only one left hand turn that generates any temperature and it's short. It's been so long since this day I've forgotten how the car was. It was probably tail happy, as I like it
  13. I'm sure you don't mind runflats quite as much now you have your touchless tyre machine eh Tony
  14. 205/55 on a 8jj 16 wheel is too stretched, and outside the published guidelines. 225/50 would be better, plus if it's a RWD car give you a better balance. Nice choice of wheels
  15. Looks like you've a little too much front grip
  16. I'm getting complaints from company bosses at the park because we keep stopping their staff doing their work I wonder why! Because whenever there's an F-Car, Tony does the geo in a mankini... Now that's impressive
  17. Perhaps a 430 challenge? Is it coming on a flat bed?
  18. I hope your camera is in fine form on friday tonight
  19. So friday it is. Any chance you could accidentally hide the keys so you have to keep it overnight?
  20. Do me a favour and put him back until sat morning
  21. Ceramics - so you don't have to change the discs for 100,000 miles, but they get you by making the pads from recycled cardboard
  22. Put like that, a set of semi slicks do make sense. Be warned though, with the extra grip comes a slightly quicker dry brake away, so if the car did snap into lift-off oversteer you'd need to be slightly quicker than if on regular rubber. Semi slicks inspire confidence if you're not comfortable with the car moving around on softer construction road tyres. I must add a warning though. Semi slicks on a cold wet Nurburgring would be a disaster, to the point even I wouldn't go out if there was unexpected rain, and I didn't have treaded tyres.
  23. Does the owners first name start with M, and his surname rhyme with "Shoe Maker"
