My only concern is that on a car with a top speed of 186mph, the insurance company may, in the worst case scenario, refuse to pay out if it only...
Got to say, I'm in agreement with you. If you're big enough to drive it, be big enough to share other's enjoyment in it.
About 5,000 miles last year in my '90 Testarossa including the trip down to Le Mans and regular weekly driving. This year will be a few more as...
So I still cannot run W rated tyres but can run Zs as long as they don't have a secondary rating. I don't know who to be more p!55ed off with,...
Has anyone used Toyo Proxes before? A lot of the guys over here use them on TVRs but I have no personal experience of them. al
I would have the Falkens like a shot. I ran them on my last 348 and they were superb. Plenty of grip and feel and, good wear. I was trying to...
Technically it is not though. Not according to the tables that I have seen anyway. W = 168mph (a fixed maximum) Z = 150+ mph (an open...
A bit like my drive on Sunday. Don't we just love the English weather! :)
What price did you pay please Harry? I'm guessing it was in the thousands?
If I have to go through Longstones I'll ask the question Pete. It should be easy enough, you just read it on the side wall of the tyre don't you?...
It never goes on the track Phil. I can't afford the insurance excess if I stack it! :D
Very well put. I shall stop worrying about a diff issue that, until a few days ago did not realize existed and, the only reason the engine is...
I was thinking about this driving in to work this morning. Will it upset the handling if I keep the Goodyear F1s on the front (as they are fine...
No. Mine's still crap! :)
I will ask the question tomorrow. I have spoken to one of the suppliers of those Kumhos and they said they are fine in the damp but just take...
Phil, it would void the insurance if I had a crash and speed was even a sniff of a factor. It doesn't matter if I was only doing 70mph, the car...
They are the ones I was looking at from another supplier, but they are only W rated :(
Phil, where did you find them at £65? Did I see somewhere that you got them shipped from the states? Mine currently has Eagle F1s on the...
I may be wrong but I thought the only change in slight spec on the Series 1 TRs was when they swapped from single centre nut to 5-stud wheels.
A little quiet but not bad. Mine sounds similar to that up to about 2000 revs ;) The other clip of the TR is only pootling about and doesn't...
