Spotted another Veyron today, baby blue on silver. Also more ferrari's than you can poke a stick at, then there was the Conti's, porches and SLR Merc's. Anyone care to guess which city/Kingdom i am in at the moment???

I'll put some pic's up when i get them off the camera.

Jeff we timed 2 laps - did a 1.50.0 and a 1.50.2. Apparently Christian Murchisan did a high 1.48 earlier in the week.

Not bad for a production car on street rubber (Pirelli P Zero). I sure as hell was impressed. Not to mention I did 40 laps in 2hrs and the car was still perfect at the end (brakes fine, water 90degs and oil 100degs)

FYI Christian did some hot laps in the RS4 which we timed at 1.55.2 - so the R8 is considerably quicker.

That's awesome isn't it? This newer generation of cars are really eclipsing the previous generation.

saw a black c63.. plates were 19 or 16

in camberwell it tore past me.. that engine actually made me semi errect. was good to say someone buying one of those n using that car to its potential.

Ah... nope. There's a few now.

You should retract that statement before you are forced to eat your (vegetarian) hat...

LOL @ Vegetarian Hat :laughing-smiley-014:

Seems my eye for one colour Veyron's let me down this time though :wave:

it's my boss, the plates are 19, i think there for sale with all his other plates

I feel so depressed again, have seen so many Maseratis, a few 599 Ferraris or a few of them may have been 612s?!?! Saw a shitty R35 that was going farking fast and loudly and proudly down the road. A few M6s...like i said, its depressing looking at all these big dollar cars being driven by blokes younger then me, And very few of them are ex-pats :wave:

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
