Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Smile Off to the 'Ring this weekend.

Off to Germany tomorrow in the cage (Pug 306 GTi-6) for some gentle lapping on Sunday, can't wait. Got an afternoon of Rugby watching and BBQ lined up at Sliders tomorrow afternoon, then on to the track Sunday.

I'll be taking it gently as still got the standard pads fitted and ditchfinder P6000s. Hope to report back with some nice pics, very excited

I'm not a Sabina fan on three accounts:

1. She's anti bike.
2. She's not that attractive (compared to Jeremy Clarkson yes, compared to many other attractive women no).
3. She's a bit up her own behind since becoming a minor celebrity.

I'm sure she's a better driver than me though and that's fine.

Filming is banned on the Nordschleife, however plenty of people still do it. As my AVin is bust on my camcorder I can't use my bullet camera for the moment, although I plan to come up with a cunning install in a spare headrest to get passed the barrier marshalls.

In the mean time here's a vid or two of a guy in a 306, heavily modded suspension but pretty standard engine (only 10 bhp up on standard):

Check out 7:40 on this one:

And a swift lap from Bren from Sliders on an 04 R1 when he was still riding bikes:
