Awesome afternoon out dudes
Film was enjoyable on a level, but not on a F&F level No quotes really. Maybe "too soon junior" will become the next one
Anyway highlights where storming up to a roundabout in my M3 with Paul beside me and traffic appearing...ABS, teenie skids. Whoops.
and the highlight of the day was Adrian taking me sideways "deliberately" in his 350z
Good to see you all

Was fantastic afternoon...
I had such a laugh today. Film was so so, pretty average action shit - nothing to write home about. Porsche driving bird was fit though.
Did you get me and Adi on film at the end? or just adi's 350z ? I was trying to catch him but I was sliding all over the place
S2000's really really lack traction compare to your cars in the wet... however adi has 10 inch wide wheels fucking rediculous.
I just fixed my gear knob... it usually is loose and rattles. Now it's tight and silent, the beauty is I'm able to shift so much faster now I can actually keep the car in vtec!

Yeh new alteration to the plan now
I'm going to get a Berks Test Pipe fitted (decat for us brits)...
ok probably give me a slight bit more power, but the main thing is the noise differences
I don't want a different aftermarket exhaust system as I don't want mine louder... but putting a test pipe on changes the noise when not making it louder... makes it a lot more 'racey' sounding, more like how my 106 gti sounded...

cool mate! Yeh get it online asap...
I wasn't giving it full beans as it was wet, I only started gunning it once past the next roundabout (which would've been far from you)... I'd be interested in seeing my car moving though from the outside.

you gonna upload the vid or just bring it to the meet?
If I bring my camera, can someone film me driving by or something at guildford on wed.
To be honest... anyone up for all meeting up one day / night with some video camera's and doing a bit of just random filming, then editing the whole lot together in a cool way with music backing

I just really want a decat, exhaust mani and spoon ecu ... but the parts cost so much.
should gain me about 20-25 bhp or so, but the mid range is where it'll gain the most.
