Most of the top guys don't want to punt a Skelta fast cause they don't feel safe in it, let alone a R400.

Speaking of crashes, that blue evo that hit the power pole only had a bolt in cage. Which surprised me

My boss has the new 2L turbo FWD TT... really nice car to sit in, interior is a little cramped but very high quality... driving position is great as long as your not too tall... but its still a TT and as such I feel just a little feminine when driving it... handles great, VERY responsive on the throttle, has great torque down low

I'm sure its big brother the TTRS would be more manly... matte black does help... remember you are required to wear your blue tooth headset at all time when behind the wheel of a TT!

Matte white TT-RS with the dark intekes etc looks the goods. Certainly a lot less famanine than the series 1.

Nick, what are you still doing in here anyway? Weren't you banned? :(

oh wait what... this is SAU motorsport section!?... sorry I thought I was on myboyfrienddrivesanaudi.com

We had a good look at/sit in/feel of matt's TTRS pre-his mail delivery service gone bad. Was a lil cramped to get in/out of due to the exceptional cage, but a warm home once in, maybe a quick-release wheel or works bell flip up might make life a lil easier, but true credit to his build. They are a much nicer car than the early hairdresser spec cars.

I was so impressed with how it went considering how stock it was (stock magnetic suspension, stock brakes etc). Chuck a Haldex torque controller in to send more drive to the rear and it would be amazing.

I was amazed how much of the car is made of alloy, wouldn't have made building the cage easy!

Funni.... The guy looked right through me, wouldn't have had a clue who I was. lol ......

I had similar experience with the worlds fastest driver and best magazine editor. (they are the same person) lol

HAHA, don't be gangin up on me. Bloody hell, gives you girls an inch........

You'd take an inch.....

besides you must be gay knocking back an offer from a certain blonde girl girl at targa time.

So a broken drivers seat sitting on the consol didnt surprise you...

Its the cardboard box theory... an open box upside down has strength... with opening up - weak as p155.

Ask Simon Evans - even the best cage is not going to work best in a big sill impact, that is more car strength.

Hehe, he is nothing. After a night at the strippers i jumped in the lil R32 and chopped him at Sandown. And ther great thing is unlike my chop on the F430 at Winton this one was caught on tape :P

opening credits...chop, chop....frkn chop!

If it had been this blonde there wouldnt have been any discrimination or knokcing back :P

I was there when the offer was made, and there again 5 minute's later when he realized what

he just done!!! IT WAS GOLD..... like a kid that had drop his icecream......lol

Well, talk about a late call-up. On the plane tomorrow morning (thurs) to Adelaide to recce for the ASP this weekend. Due to a fellow nav having to pull out, i got a call at 11am this morning. Looking forward to trying a new event even if the longest stage is only 10ish kms :D

Oh, and being a CAMS event...enough said. lol

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
