Was a good day out and i was pleased with my map, looks like my turn of the remap lottery was a winning ticket. The figure on the day was virtually the same as quoted on PDT's rollers so i have no reason to doubt the rollers were out unless both are????

Nice to meet some of you guys :happy2:

Is it just me, or was one of those Proton Rally Cars that's on Top Gear now actually at Motorscope yesterday..?  :surprised: And I mean that exact one.

I'm 99.9% sure it is, as it was the same colour, same graphics and same thick styled font on the number plate..   :surprised:

Big thanks goes out to Jamie for the shotgun ride in his Stage 2 TTRS..  :driver:  :drool:

Pleasure mate... be interested to hear what you think about it!

My heads up my arse with the RR figures on my car, if I follow the rule of thumb of some of the 2.0tfsi boys that looked a bit high, I should maybe knock 20 to 30bhp off fly wheels figures, but that puts it way below what it should be, and what it feels like on the road.
I didn't like seeing them put it through 10 attempts and watching them attempt it with ESP not fully disengaged... poor thing was cooking  :signLOL:

Not posted in a while - shame on me :(

You should have just collared me at some point.... Ryan was helping me out with a few settings.... I had some very sketchy instructions, but we got there in the end (big thanks to Ryan again).
