Re the Babes, you know me well, Neil  :happy2: - I don't like Lotus cars much: Good but not for me.

Glad to hear your car is getting fixed  :happy2: It'll soon all be in the past.

well i went, and came back! Didn't take any pics as didn't take the camera on purpose.

But OMG you should see one of the Legs11 (strip club) girls on the stand near AP Racing. mahoosive air bags!

Shocked at how many people were taking pics of the girls rather than the cars   :signLOL: (as if)

So the VWR brakes are made by Caparo AP (people behind the Caparo T1)

But are they a totally different company to AP Racing then?

So what you're saying is that you didn't trust yourself with a camera when around all those show babes. [Memo to self: Don't forget to take the camera on Sunday]

AFAIK, Caparo AP and AP Racing are not related, but.. I think I'll ask one of the long legged girlies guys on the AP Racing stand. "C'mon Nathan! We've seen everything on this stand, it's time to move on".

Actually, in spite of being an old perv, I'm the same - I've seen it all before.

Was the show very crowded then? (I've never been to this show).

i went first thing this morning..and to be honest it didn't feel or seem as busy as previous years.

the live action arena was not full at 9.30am (not surprised) so despite being allocated right behind a big phat f'ing pillar, i got up and moved to the bit in the middle that was empty with better view of the action!

VBH trying to powerslide a 911....dear oh dear. utter utter failure.

But i've seen it all before so nothing new in there to surprise me really. 40-50 mins of various forms of motorsports running around. Was kinda funny seeing the flame flowing FPA cars "sliding" their way round the course on opposite lock. don't think the cars were designed to do that!

and the show itself...chatted to Kenny on AmD stand about their new BTCC Golf. Saw a mate from CGTI. Other than that...same old show with maybe less trade stands than normal. Had a good nose at the VWR brake kit tho...massive!

Well , we "met" Dom and Hedge on the M40  :happy2:

Bought my new Helmet for Karting and some Gloves, that was about it really.

Didn't seem as big as last year, was it as many halls?

cheers Mat but already checked out the Caparo website to try and find out more about their "braking prodcuts" division.

Still confused between them (AP Braking / AP Lockheed) and AP Racing.

Do you know if their kit will take other makes of pads...ie is it a common size that Ferodo / Pagid / Mintex / PF will have a pad that fits that caliper? Or is it Caparo pads only that will fit?
