Maybe its my tyres hitting the inner arches (I need stiffer coilover springs), or maybe it is just the amount of noise my car makes!!

You do learn to live with the noise, it makes up for it in other areas...

Yes it is modified, not extensively like many are though, I wont bore you with a full spec list but its running roughly 315bhp and 290lbft and I have Tein coilovers with Edfc and the larger Brembo brake setup from the later Evos.

Thanks for the nice words @mercutio and @SPYDOR, I do try to be as courteous as possible on track, You guys were pretty good with the track etiquette too.

and welcome, I made sure to move over when I saw a Evo steaming up behind me

. I said to my passenger, I gotta move over to let a car past, he said well spotted, to which I replied "it's a white Evo, not hard to miss"

. We'll done mate, we do try to be as good as poss out there in regards to rules ect

Welcome.
Yeah it didn't look like you were attacking the corners that hard, not surprising if it was a shakedown run then

Ow how do you go about removing the cruise? What do you have to do with the vacuums?

I remember you were putting down very decent times at the Paul walker tribute at the pod

no worries dude

depends on the model you buy, a fully equipped one is around 1320kg I think, but other members will probably know the more accurate specs

there should be a how-to on how remove cruise control, but after a quick search it may be still on PreludeUK, have a look there maybe? as far as I remember I just blocked the vacuums up with a big screw and some tape.... really technical there lol!!

driving down the pod is always really good fun, but I have to admit im not very good at it compared to track days, my times were reasonable but others on Lude Gen have had much better times with standard cars than me, its all about the start
