I was flying a GP2 team owner last week and he'd heard of Jonny don't know what the French translation was but my copilot sort of thought he said "Yeh, that boy can pedal!" he's been doing very well with the 458 in the GT series this year.

So not surprised he pissed off a few porsche owners, that's Jonnys reason d'être in life!

Should ave got him to sign the front wing, be worth a fortune if he makes it major league next year!

It was funny as hell.  No room for signatures on the wing, its covered in rubber marks from the bits of tyre that were flying around the track off the other cars.

Dave, do you have any pads available for this Tarox 6 pot kit?

Probably not with it being a tarox kit. Send me a pic of the pad and I'll find something for you or make you some.

Just spoke to Tarox.  They use the same pads as found in the Mk1 Leon Cupra R, Fiat Cupra turbo an many others.  Speaking to him, he was saying their Tarox Corsa pad is supplied by Ferrodo and is in fact a DS2500 compound

FCP1348H is what you need in DS2500  :happy2:

Dave has sh*te loads in stock usually.

Actually, go for the DS3000 compound.

I think the rear lateral brace is ready to be fabricated.

Rear ARB wise, im pretty much limited to whiteline.

A lot of the TT RS guys are beginning to use these kits now too.

A Porsche Turbo tuned for the kit will make around an extra 100bhp!!!! :surprised:
