Good bit of weight saving there Ryan, been doing a bit of that myself aswell :P

Not sure you'll need to go mad with tyre pressures it seemed pretty good at the rr day with very little spin. You might want to have a play beforehand.

They dont have the stupid amount of torque as the 2.0tfsi also im pretty surprised by the weight or lack of at only 1150kg :surprised:

Lets just hope for good weather.

Off up to pdtuning tomoz to get the car logged and set up properly rather then me just guessing with the bum dyno.

Took Jon-tfsi out for a little spin in it today and found some nice twisties. Couldn,t get the car to move around at all, felt like it was on rails. Very pleased with my current suspension/tyre set up.

Ah, never met the "other" Andy yet.

Nice one, lets hope the weather holds out. Going to Elvington this Sunday as one of the mates is running his Scoob in Ten of the best, looks set to be good weather for that.

Fingers crossed eh.
