I change down anyway so I can blast past people rather than just overtake them!

Following F430 on Saturday onto a roundabout and 30 degree one way followed by 30 degrees the other then exited closely following the f430 with the ASR warning light on and 2 brake warning lights lit up on the dash !
Luckily they reset after I restarted after stopping a little later. But a bit of a problem when the system supposed to stop you spinning off disengages when you probaly most need it.
Not sure about the clutch wear but the tyre rear is going off the scale lol

Nah. That's why God gave us opposite lock and the ability to pucker and unpucker!

Hi Benny, The parts are due to arrive at Shiltech tomorrow. Once Geoff has checked that everything actually is correct for my engine then they can start putting it all back together. In the meantime they're going to put the car sans engine on the trailer and get it delivered to the bodyshop that are doing the paintwork. Shouldn't be too long now. :D
