I hope you don't mind me posting this on here and if its not in the right place please move it





May 5th/6th – Put the date in your diary now! That’s when the all new modified car show hits the Mid-Suffolk Showground for the first time. Not to be missed by anyone into race, performance, or modified cars, RPM is brought to you by the creator of ‘Bug Jam’, now one of the very biggest and best shows on the car show calendar.

The show features a massive Show & Shine with classes for all cars, so whether your thing is Japs, Euros, Dubz, Yanks, Fords, Bimmerz, Benz’s, JDM… RPM is a two day celebration of all things automotive. RPM will be the coolest show to debut the coolest cars. Every make and model is accommodated in the RPM Show & Shine.

Every modified car club, cruising club or single make club is invited, and all clubs booking a (free) club stand before 31st March will be guaranteed display space in the main show arena, free overnight camping on Friday 4th May, and entry into the Friday night pre show party, for pre entered clubs and VIP’s only). Clubs need a minimum of 10 cars for club display space, and all clubs can take advantage of the club ‘group booking’ system. (Buy 10 tickets and pay for 9)

The show is about the cars and the people that are actually into the cars… it’s not the fastest, hottest, largest or loudest. That’s not what RPM is about. You want strippers? Go to a strip club. You want car porn? come to RPM. We want this show to be the best Show& Shine of it’s type in Europe. The show to debut your car at. We are getting together not just trophies and Wolfrace Wheels as prizes but Designer Branded high end goods too, from champagne to watches.

And entry into the Show & Shine is free with your weekend or day ticket.

The Mid-Suffolk Showground is at Stonham Barns, Suffolk, easily accessed via the M1/M6/A14 from many parts of the UK, via the M25/A12 from London and the South, or the A140 from deepest East Anglia. The venue has a bar and restaurant, antiques and crafts shops, as well as stores selling food and alcohol, and a lot more besides. There’s play areas for children, a golf course, fishing lakes, driving range, off-road course… just a great venue. If you wanted to come down early the venue also has a touring caravan and camping site.]]>

I'm new, I know the heat that Raceland Coilovers bring but I bit the bullet and bought some which is now proving a bad idea!!

It's not that I'm somebody who knows nothing about cars, I've been a mechanic and working on cars for 20 yrs so I know how things go now! lol

However, 2 weeks ago I bought some raceland coilovers and I've fitted them. The rear is low (I mean REAL low which admittedly I would like to raise a tiny bit) but the front just will not lower. I've tried absolutely everything I can think off.

I've tried trimming the bumpstops, removing them, leaving them to settle to see if this had any effect, tried kicking the car (lol, joke!) and a bunch of other stuff that I could think of but nothing is lowering the front. If anything it's raised it a tiny bit. It seems to be that the front springs haven't got much movement which is not leaving much room to lower the car. Like I say the rear is lowering perfectly. I'm totally in oar as to what is going so wrong with it. Any ideas??

Thanks all]]>

Michelin has interviewed some of the team’s drivers and race engineers to find out why they choose to fit Michelin tyres and why they feel fitting the correct tyres is important from a racing and road car point of view. And no, it’s not because the tyres are supplied free of charge as race teams pay like anyone else.

Unlike Formula 1, endurance racing tyres are closely linked, in terms of size and performance characteristics, to those used on high performance road cars. Endurance racing calls for tyres that will last as long as possible while offering high levels of grip in various conditions from their first lap to their last. As a result, in last year’s Le Mans 24 hour race, the No.2 Audi R18 TDI managed to race for 750kms on one set of tyres, and at speeds of up to 330km/h with three Peugeots in hot pursuit.

In 2012 Audi will field two R18 e-tron quattro’s and two R18 ultra prototypes at Le Mans – all shod with Michelin tyres. The two hybrid cars will be driven by last year’s Le Mans winning trio of Marcel Fässler, André Lotterer, and Benoît Tréluyer with Dindo Capello, Tom Kristensen, and Allan McNish in the other car. The R18 Ultra will see Loïc Duval joined by Timo Bernhard and Romain Dumas with the other R18 Ultra driven by Marco Bonanomi, Oliver Jarvis and Mike Rockenfeller.

In the video, drivers Allan McNish and Tom Kristensen, and race engineer Howden Haynes share their views and experiences of tyres and talk about how innovation in motorsport benefits drivers with better cars and tyres.

2. When you are buying and selling, perform quite a few analysis about costs, but keep in mind you will not get what it is on the forecourt for. There needs to be a mark up, and also you are not responsible just like a dealer is for mechanical problems. Use Kelly Blue Book, keep in mind that it's a guide, not a bible.

3. If you do not feel comfortable negotiating costs or checking used vehicles for mechanical issues, consider using a car buying service.

4. Never purchase a vehicle that is being advertised as using a new coat of paint. It may have been in an accident.

5. If you are purchasing a vehicle from a private seller, check to be sure any associated lien on the vehicle has been paid off by the seller.]]>

I am trying to raise awareness of an up and coming young driver.

LEWIS WILLIAMSON for the Autosport Rookie of the Year award!

For those of you that are unaware Lewis won the BRDC McLaren Autosport Driver of the Year award in 2010 and has been racing in GP3 this season.

Lewis ‘works’ at Ross-shire Engineering and is living between Dingwall & Golspie at the moment (not quite Monaco ).

In his first season in GP3 he topped the time sheets in pre-season testing outstripping all other 29 drivers in the field and after an unfortunate end to his first race in the series (he rolled)
and a memorable win at Silverstone he was sitting second in the Championship mid-way through the season.

However, lady luck was not on his side and after a series of mechanical failures and set up issues ended the season in joint 7th,on points, out of an impressive field of 30 drivers.

Please vote for him - never know in a year or two you might see him racing with the likes of Vettel and Alonso!!!

Please Forward this on to as many people as you can.

The voting is on the Autosport website or just follow this link.

Thanks in Anticipation

LEWIS WILLIAMSON for the Autosport Rookie of the Year award!

For those of you that are unaware Lewis won the BRDC McLaren Autosport Driver of the Year award in 2010 and has been racing in GP3 this season.

Lewis ‘works’ at Ross-shire Engineering and is living between Dingwall & Golspie at the moment (not quite Monaco ).

In his first season in GP3 he topped the time sheets in pre-season testing outstripping all other 29 drivers in the field and after an unfortunate end to his first race in the series (he rolled)
and a memorable win at Silverstone he was sitting second in the Championship mid-way through the season.

However, lady luck was not on his side and after a series of mechanical failures and set up issues ended the season in joint 7th,on points, out of an impressive field of 30 drivers.

Please vote for him - never know in a year or two you might see him racing with the likes of Vettel and Alonso!!!

Please Forward this on to as many people as you can.
